Don't we all fall in love with something at some point of time and simply go crazy about it!
Not people, but things, like shoes, dresses, bags, bangles... anything you can think of. It becomes one of those things you can't live without during that "obsessed" period. Yeah... call that obsession actually and not love!
I have these phases all the time. Sometime, it's a bag or could be a new watch or may be the kohl pencil I bought! Once it was also the Subway Salad and at another time it was Mother Dairy Chocochips ice cream!! I'd behave as if I'd not live another moment without these. Phew!!!
Thankfully, these never lasted for more than a few days. Imagine the kilos I'd pile on gorging on a cup of ice cream every day for even a couple weeks!!
And now, the obsession is back. Those guessing it to be my husband.... well not really. He is the love of my life :))
Anyways, this time it is something I never really liked in particular. I admired other women wearing it, but was convinced that it will never go well on me. And I never tried it ever. Pity I never did :(
What is it?
Bindis!!!
Those pretty little patterns that adorn your face and go perfectly with every Indian outfit.
Ohh... call me obsessed. For what else is it but obsession that makes me buy these even when I am out for grocery shopping! I get attracted to those little shops that display strips of these hanging in the open. I am drawn to them like ants to sugar and end up buying at least a couple packs.
Of course, I have my preferences. They have to be medium sized and round. I bought so many tiny patterns before marriage, of which most I have given to friends. I have been told by none other than Mom (MIL) and my doc (husband) that the bigger round ones suit me best.
So, here I am looking for colorful round bindis almost everywhere I go!!!
It was only the next day for my bidaai (departure to the groom's place), I put on a bindi on my own and there started my tryst with bindis.
And now whenever I wear Indian attire, my look seems incomplete without a bindi! They make you different and so nice... wouldn't you agree? Ohhh wait, I am not obsessed. I am in love!!!
What's your current obsession, blogdosts? Tell me....
Till next time, take care and stay precious!

My obsession has always been the same,that's running...
By the way,don't worry about putting on weight, just equal it with exercise and you will be fine, the problem with us is,we hate to get that body moving,,,hahahhahaahha
I was once obsessed with black nail paint. It died down :) And chocolates. Every time I'm obsessed with a new chocolate :D
Haven't ever been fond of bindis, but yes, you look adorable :D

Thank You so much for the comment :) I love the smile you have on your profile picture :D
Nail Paint! Shoes!
I don't wear Indian outfits much but these bindis look so nice that I'm now tempted to go for a mix and match westernised look.
P.S, You look pretty <3
