Dhruv Singh’s vintage charm…

I'm glad Pinterest brought me to Facebook of Dhruv Singh.  So much of inspiration ! Absolutely gorgeous. His clothing line speaks so much about India. Beautiful patterns, stylish cuts, subtle embroideries, traditional textiles with chic look, muted and bright hues make each ensemble so rich, elegant and timeless. These shaded kalidars in earthy tones are so stunning..

Choose your own slice of paradise -Your dose of rejuvenation– The Farm

Three years ago, I wanted to do  “ Choose your own slice of Paradise -Your dose of rejuvenation”as a regular feature on my blog.  This is what I wrote at that time.

India  the  cultural  mosaic, intoxicating fusion of ancient panorama, blessed with stunning landscapes, conglomeration and congregations of  regions and religions, lovely food, vibrant bazaars, Holy Shrines ,  India is undoubtedly a  perfect getaway .

But where is the time ??  Insipidness of daily routine usually  takes  us away from the serenity ,  beauty and charm of Life . Don’t you think  sometimes , we have strong urge to surrender ourselves to the allures of beauty of nature , exotic interiors, lovely places where in we want to  rejoice in  extraordinary surroundings , enjoy local food. But can we actually  pack our  bags and just go unwind ourselves  as and when we want to?? I know  the answer is NO . So, here comes , “Choose your own slice of Paradise” - Your dose of rejuvenation.  It is about exotic destinations in India where in we will be seeing the sights of rural India  to palaces,  regality of Maharajas , metamorphosing into  palaces, havelis  into world class hotels , luxurious safaris all seduced  with breathless,  matchless interior decor and captivating sights .  Are you ready?????????”

With great enthusiasm, I did write one post but could not go on. Things fizzled out, priorities changed, blog took a back seat and then the whole idea of writing it as regular feature got lost. However, my urge to write about beautiful places, boutique hotels and their striking interiors never went away. I continued to be a virtual tourist all these years. But, The Farm Jaipur, an artistic hotel has compelled me to restart “ my dose of rejuvenation”.

This beautiful property is owned by a couple Ritu and Surya Singh. Quirky spaces, art deco, eclectic mix of vintage and retro stuff, unusual and  creative decor follows throughout the hotel.  Interestingly most of the stuff in the hotel has been reused and recycled. Jute rice bags have been used as cushion covers, old bolts used as numbers on the rooms and waste leather shavings have been used as trendy rugs.  The hotel has 6 executive rooms with splashes of vibrant colours here and there. I love the decor and feel of the hotel – so Indian….

Are you ready to treat yourself to this chic and tranquil getaway ?

Spending some time outdoor

Who wants to spend summer, sitting indoors all the time when the outdoor is so inviting?? Beautiful small outdoor spaces – a welcoming respite from the scorching heat of these summer months.
