This blog is our space to write about our thoughts, views and notes about our travels. Osho owned 90 Rolls Royces while being a Sanyasi …. The so-felt contradiction is very fascinating and hence the name !
Today marks the 11th National Handloom Day. Celebrating it in a Akola Chundri block printed saree. I do want to keep emphasizing about our weaving heritage and supporting local weavers. #ILoveHandlooms
Today is World Saree Day, and I celebrated in a copper sulphate blue Negamam saree. Twinning with Krishnan, who wore a similar coloured T-shirt.
National Handloom Day on Aug 7 commemorates the Swadeshi movement’s launch in 1905, promoting indigenous industries. PM Modi declared it the National Handloom Day. I celebrated with a handwoven Ilkal.
Through this post I want to share the joy of wearing the 1000 Butta Sarees, their significance, sources, and the importance of cherishing Bharat’s weaving traditions.
Celebrated my 55th birthday on two days as per the Julian and Hindu calendar. Wore a Moirangphee and a Kanchi Silk saree for each occasion. Also visited a couple of temples and watched Swatantrya Veer Savarkar at a theatre.
I finally wore the Garad Korial Saree that I got from Kalpavastram. It’s a beauty and the sheen of the silk is spellbinding. Do add one to your collection ! #ILoveHandloom
I wore a beautiful Kotpad Saree for Pongal. This is my first Kotpad. Thank you Folkweave for sourcing this beauty ! #ILoveHandloom
We received Andal’s Kili (parrot) Prasadam today and I decided to pose with it :). A beautiful golden coloured Arani silk with the Rudraksha motif in the border.
Wore an old favorite saree today – an Earth coloured Kanchi silk with checks all over that Krishnan bought for me in 2007.
I wore the beautiful blue Kanchi silk saree today. This is woven by Gopinath’s team and I call it Bindu’s blue ! It’s butter soft and a pleasure to wear.
