Thirsty Fashion : A Fashion and Food report.

Hola !

How is the weekend drama coming along, you guys!

I am not sure when I mentioned this, but I am here to remind myself and you all that I did want to slowly widen Spangle Street's scope and connect with more topics of my personal interest. Saying that, I would quickly but from the most honest corner of my heart, thank all those who love Spangle Street and have made us your secret friend. As I said before, we are not here to compete in the fashion race. We are here whenever you want to relax and step away from all the drama going around you. To connect with your souls, to encourage you, make you smile, make you happy and basically just chilling the fig down.

Today I am wearing a very special owl-struck cropper with my lace jeggings. It is very chic, different and super flowy -Let's accept it, sometimes we do need a super cool tee in life. So here's the look you need along with the drinks mentioned below.

Also,now my favorite part of the post-The latest no-fuss drinks I love and would want you to try as well. They are super easy. Super yummy.

1. Slushie

Nothing new but still very refreshing, Slushie is basically a non-alcoholic drink which is made of small ice crystals with a variety of fruity syrups. This is perhaps the easiest of all. I don't even need to explain how this should be made. But still, lots of clear ice crystals, your favorite syrup (I've even mixed 2-3 flavors which was super yum) and 10 mins to sit back and enjoy, is all you need.

2. Appletini

This comes out from the group of famous 'tini' sisters of the alcohol universe. It is a cocktail consisting of vodka and specifically apple juice with apple cider, apple brandy or apple liqueur and even vermouth. One of the best drinks you can serve when you have the much-needed all girls party. It is a fashion drink, no

doubt.

3. Minted Mocha Fusion

Thanks to the Nestle website for generously sharing some nice coffee recipes with us. I am a fussy foodie so I don't like to try out every food/drink that sounds fancy. Therefore I have chose my favorite ones for you to try. Feel free to go to their website and check out more cool stuff. This drink takes 5 minutes to be prepared and 5 minutes to cook. You need 2 cups Rich Chocolate Flavor NESTLE CARNATION Hot Cocoa Mix, 10 stick packs NESCAFE TASTER’S CHOICE 100% Colombian Pure Instant Coffee Granules, 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract.

Simply PLACE cocoa mix, coffee granules and peppermint extract in food processor or blender; cover. Process until ingredients are combined. Store in airtight container. The fusion is ready. To make one cup, add 3 3 tablespoons Minted Mocha Fusion in mug; stir in 1 cup hot milk or water and serve with a smiling face ! :)

Now Now Now, there are trillions of recipes online. These are just my favorite 3 right now (my favorites change faster than you blink.)

We will come forward with lots n lots of cool stuff for you guys

until then

Happy Weekend, boys and girls !

Hello pretty fellows !

Happy Sunday !

Hope you guys are up and fresh by now and having a super chill Sunday, just like me.

This may sound old and 'told', but the importance of a Sunday is soon realized once you start working. Saturdays suddenly become more exciting and Mondays become more hateful, but hey ! Sundays are Sundays and no one can take away that feeling of happiness and rejuvenation it gives us.

As it must have sink in you by now, I am willingly taking my wardrobe wars lightly. So I thought of giving you all a quick sneak peak into my room. Excuse the phone camera pictures. This is where I work from and this is my favorite place on earth right now. <3

Sunday Sunday in my room!

We have newly shifted here, so you will gradually see this more filled, growing, colorful and gliterry in my future posts. :P

This is a little extension of my room. We call it the "chill room". My sisters makes her painting here and we generally chill a lot because its quirky and cosy. Feel free to order these hand painted posters by my sister. :)

Another look of the same corner, I LOVE those posters. <3

This is what I see when I wake up every morning. It makes me happy ! There are these hand painted birds and then there are pictures of my childhood an then my laptop and my old speakers I just can't get rid of and the like.

Oh well, lil sunday self pampering there.

And then I decided to head out for a coffee!

Hope you guys enjoyed this!..

I will come up with more pictures soon.

Until then , have a great week ahead.

Big Kiss!

Weekend drama - 5 reasons to Love music!

Hi guys ! ..

Hope you all are having fun and the week is going great.

It is weekend, so I really wanted to write about something very quickly.

While wondering what are the things I love (I am going to do a post on that very soon), I knew the answer before the question was complete in my mind. Music!

Yes, this is probably one of the most important things in my life and I am sure a majority of you agree with it. I love music and being brought up in a family of music lovers, I virtually have grown up listening to all possible songs and the then- famous favorite singers of my family and eventually took over with making my own playlists over the years. So basically I stay where music plays in the background, no matter where you are or what you do.

I think there is something very appealing about people who are into music. So here I am here with my next lifestyle report on - 5 Reasons to Love Music!

1. Another word for unlax.

Music relaxes your mind and there is no other notion to it. It is a definite mood booster. Good music will always take you on a thought journey and deviate you from your current issues, even if its for a while. And sometimes this little deviation is all that you need to keep going. Try this if you haven't (really, you haven't?)- Wake up to great music and the rest of your day is sorted. (for good). So let the hormones dance in peace and see your mood changing.

2. Not one or two - Countless Genres to choose from.

I might claim to come from a family/social circle of music lovers, but I still wouldn't know ALL the genres, I'm sure. This is not a new fact and we all know that music floats into number of styles. I would say each style is unique and gives you a different feel. I wish to hear all the great songs made somewhere in some corner of the world before I die. It is like visiting all the places before I die. Ok, bucket list addition no. 23917..something lakhs.

3. Music is for everyone.

Every person can relate to at least one song they have ever liked/heard. Obviously that is because people express their thoughts and make music and somewhere someone relates to it. It connects us all in a very soothing way. I have every song for every major phase in my life and the list is very huge. :P

4. And, for every occasion.

Why we always connect to movies instantly is because music plays a major role in them. Now I don't want to go back or front to the shit-lyrical music some non deserving people make, I am talking sensible, catchy, distinctive, brilliant music. All big events like weddings and heart throbbing- ear drum cracking clubs literally live on great music. Without music, you know how it is. Also, we do have heart touching mellow music for our heart and eye wash,once in a while. What? You don't have a 'break up playlist'? (bleh)

5. Increases your understanding.

This didn't really come to my mind directly. I was talking to a very dear musician friend of mine and asked him what it is like to be a giver of music rather than a listener. He said music means much more to musicians than it means to anyone else. It makes them think better, understand life situations better. That's because they connect extremely closely to what a song says. Most of the songs also draw a lot of similarity from the real life situations. And because its music, you always grasp it better. I can't believe we still don't have musical-academics. We would have been brilliant. Seriously.

Hope you guys liked this and before going it is My duty to introduce you to this very sexy new EP by Frank. It is called "ALMOST HOME" Annnddd Children under 14 years not allowed ;) The music is great, the feel is great and well, we Love it!
