New Beginnings

August 16, 2024

Lifestyle

Welcome to my Blog!!!

After much contemplation I have finally started the much thought about – Style Destino. Its a relief that I can now see it in real, it is no more a visual image in my mind!!!

I am a finance professional, but fashion is also my passion. Among the two I often get confused which one is a greater pull in my life. But a great deal of my attention and time goes towards either admiring, browsing, reading, advising (OK I am no personal celebrity[?] stylist, but a chat with few friends or my sis is what I am now referring as ‘advising’) or contriving about fashion.

What will I do in Style Destino?
I started this to share my widely read thoughts, personal style, observations and analysis of fashion. New store hunting and ransacking, some reviews and trends and popular styles would also be a part of it. Its not a celebrity following blog (now, there is huge celeb following and they are already too much talked about. Personally I find it a concept which isn’t as natural and creative and lacks imagination), but well sometimes its hard to ignore them, as some of them can bring in great inspiration.

It’s just a beginning of the journey and I believe in going with the flow. So this is about it for now, but I am sure it will evolve and revive itself with time.

Curious? Excited to read forthcoming posts?
Well I share the same thoughts!!!!

Divertirsi!!!!
(enjoy)

🇳🇱Netherlands now officially recommends reducing meat consumption, cutting cheese intake by half, and increasing plant-based proteins.

Why? Because food choices impacts m our health, and also the climate.

And the shift goes beyond advice….. Amsterdam has even banned meat advertisements in public spaces to encourage lower-emission food choices.

A fascinating example of how climate policy is increasingly showing up in everyday life. 🌱

What can we do?
Let’s ditch animal foods and embrace a plant based diet. Compassion + health

#SustainableLiving isn’t complicated or restricting. Sharing 6 things I really wish I knew before I started this journey - so I wasn’t overwhelmed… and hoping it will make your journey more fulfilling and less stressful.

We’re messy, imperfect humans.
Perfectionism doesn’t get you anywhere / neither in your care for the planet 🌎. Every action counts - so this #worldenvironmentday - let’s start with small actions, no matter how insignificant it seems.

Thought cruelty-free meant no harm to animals? Thought you were buying ethical? Think again 😬😬

👉🏻 There’s a difference brands won’t tell you — 🐰 #crueltyfree doesn’t guarantee no animals were harmed. A cruelty free product can still have fish oil, bug juice or other animal ingredients.

You need to make sure the products you’re buying are both Cruelty-Free & #Vegan!

Your designer handbag doesn’t have to cost an animal its life.

Leather is exactly what we’ve been conditioned “not” to think about — skin, stripped from an animal that didn’t choose it, tanned with chemicals that poison waterways, sold to us as “luxury.” But luxury was never supposed to mean cruelty. It was supposed to mean the best of the best.
🌱✨ And the best is getting better.
From ancient Italian loom artisans and New York designers reimagining fashion from the ground up to luxury design houses releasing vegan collections, brands are proving that high-fashion, investment-grade handbags can be made without a single animal paying the price. Sustainable materials, ethical production, no compromise on quality.

I’m sharing 9 bags from my wardrobe from 9 different brands.

Let us get back to basics - slow living, clean (#plantbased) eating, buying what we need, ♻️ reusing-repurposing-recycling, treating food as medicine, less screen time and more living, connecting with nature, 🌎 giving planet the respect it deserves!

Because #EarthDay is everyday.

Things I hate as a vegan …. Pls tell me I’m not the only one!
The hard part about being vegan isn’t the food.
It’s the world that finds your choices more uncomfortable than the reality behind theirs.

Share yours 🌱 🫧

don’t travel solo…
“you’re married, go with your husband” — We’ve all heard this before…
but here’s the truth… solo travel hits different.

you reconnect with yourself, travel at your own pace, do things you love {and finally do everything you wanted to but was always pushing it back}, 🍰 eat what you want (all those vegan desserts without anyone watching you ☺️🙃), talk to strangers (a lot), sit alone without feeling weird ….. and somewhere in all that, you meet yourself.

scary? Not at all.
worth it? every single time. ✨
