My experience at Lakme Fruit Moisture Launch Event

Sorry for posting this article little late – It’s just that my net connection is acting up these days. .

Anyways – I was invited to an exclusive event by Lakme, which featured launch of their Lakme Fruit Moisture Range of skin care products for the coming winter.

The event was an exotic and colorful that was inspired by the special ingredients in the new moisture range. Right from the décor of the place to the food served to the guests of the evening was inspired by the mysterious duskiness of the plums, juicy red of strawberries, soft elegance of peaches, rich gold of honey and dewy green of avocados. The host of the evening was Suchitra pillai who welcomed the guests in order to kick-start the event.

The evening started by an exotic wine tasting session, the sommelier had specially chosen the wines for the evening that went with the theme of the event. The sommelier taught the guests how to savor the taste of the wine so as to enjoy the heady aromas of the exotic fruits that appeal the palate and set the mood for the evening.

The wine tasting journey was followed by the supper theatre experience. ‘Nostalgia Brand Chewing Gum’ was the play of the evening. A comical play about the tangled love lives of four people living in urban India.

The Launch of Lakme Fruit Moisture Range by the Brand manager of Lakme followed the play. The Range boasts the breakthrough ‘Nutritive Moisture Teachnology’ and a blend of Hydrating agents, Essential Vitamins, AHA’s and Anti-oxidants that provides the skin 12- hours of perfect moisture boost.

The evening ended on a delicious note, which included a scrumptious dinner in continuation of the evening’s theme.

I do hope you enjoy the pictures ----

Polyvore Outfit of the Week- Zoe Deschanel Look For Less

Items in this set:

MNG by Mango® Floral Cap Sleeve Dress w/Belt for $79

Call It Spring® 'Kearsley' Convertible Bag for $20

Call It Spring® 'Liloia' Pump for $40

I was asked by JcPenny to share this look for less with you all. I just love Zoe's look here! She always looks so classy and fashionable. Even though it is fall, a fun floral print is always refreshing in the gloomy weather. This would look adorable with a blazer, tights and a pair of boots for the colder weather creeping up. It has already started raining here in Oregon (it rarely snows in the winter, just rains all winter). I am so excited to be wearing my boots!
Also can you believe that handbag is only $20? Crazy I must say, what a great deal! Must not pass that one up if that is your type of handbag! Our store just started carrying the call it spring line and the items are really nice. Right on trend and very affordable. I have an eye on a handbag I saw at the store and their shoes are quite comfy and durable!

Would you wear the outfit featured in this set?

Michelle Williams for Vogue October 2011

This editorial is so gorgeous! Michelle Williams channels Marilyn Monroe so well here. I am loving her hair. She is such a stunner here. I am really liking her hair at this length, instead of the really short due she has. The fashion as well here are very 60's and I am loving every piece. Especially the second look with the cardigan and plaid pants. Makes me want to go out and buy a similar outfit!

Street Fashion in Liverpool- LeAnne Evans

Street Fashion in London

I love her maxi dress here and the scarf compliments it well.

Ladies at London Fashion Week

All the fur jackets here makes me want to get one! Although I can't get away with wearing fur jackets, as us bigger chested ladies it doesn't look too flattering. :(

And you can't forget Kate Middleton and Prince William! Kate always looks sophisticated and lovely.

This week's fashion around the world series is on the United Kingdom. I have finished up all of Asia and now I am migrating over to Europe. I thought it would be a fresh take from the funky and fun fashion in Asia. Fashion in the UK is pretty much like fashion in the United States. Very trendy, ladylike and sophisticated. People in the UK dress very sophisticated and are always dressing right on trend.

Have you visited the UK? If so, what do you think of the fashion in the UK?
