I am on a proffessional high,just got another order for my skirts...100 pieces each different from the other and all the freedom to experiment with colour and fabric.I design and market my products abroad,mainly using lots of indian fabric with a hint of embroidery zardozi,zari,salma,aari,chicken work or mix everything up.Silk brocade is my current muse,its perfect for an evening out because its rich and stunning to look at with each region lending its unique flavour.I use the fabric to make skirts,blouses,bags...cant get enough. Silk is also created with zari (fabric woven with thin gold and silver wires) work on it.Enough on that I am working on my line of fashion accessories now, it takes time since I am a one woman team.I design, I do quality control,I market,I package,I sell.Very excited about my new line,thinking of names for it though.I just decided on the colour of my visiting cards...keeping them neutral.With so much colour in my clothes just thought that works best.Any suggestions on a name?????????The new line has brocade bags with sequins,canvas bags with zardozi or swarowski custom written names, printed silk bags,very simple silver jewellery with a single stunning stone,skirts in silk,chiffon,cotton with sequins,beads,zari,crystals.Adding a few brocade pants but dont know if they will sell.I am working on tops and kurtis with work but I am losing interest....they are so common and i hate creating anything mundane and boring.The collection will still take another three to six months....my job really slows me down.I work as a Luxury consultant,we help bring in luxury brands to India but theres absolutely nothing luxurious about my job.Involves every aspect from Conceptualizing events,deciding the colours of flowers to match the silver ware and comliment the candles, to consulting with brands,comparing market reports,checking out market trends-nothing very complicated just economics with plenty of maths ie figures thrown in.On a pesonal front nothings happening..whoever started this myth about tall, dark, handsome men because I am begining to believe they exist only in mbs.Anyway work is keeping me super busy,I just got back from Lakshwadweep.The best Diwali vacation ever.I flew to Cochin and then took a helicopter to Agatti island from where we sailed to Bangaram Islands.The place is stunning.I went scuba diving, snorkelling and fishing(threw the fish back into the sea after catching it).I almost didnt come back, was planning to live in a hut, catch fish and eat fruit but I missed working.You know some day I will give it all up to live on the beach,maybe run a shack or something.By "all" I mean my job,my apartment in Delhi,even my calvin klien suit and my collection of high heels.
