The Whimsy Bookworm: A Book Blog from India

 Hello Loves!  Time to share a little haul from recent times.  I love all things handmade and painted and things that are unique.  I came across Ayenaa on IG a while back I had to get myself some of her beautiful creations.  We, sister and I, picked two totes. One pouch and one sling bag.  Here is what we got.  This is the pouch. Look at the beautiful art and look at those colours.  This is the tote.  Look how gorgeous.  I love the woman and the bird. This one my sister picked out, she loves birds and we love the old fashioned Bengali vibe of this one.  I also got myself this circle sling bag. The oodles of yellow and the this portrait really called out to me.  The bag itself is quite roomy and wonderful and even though it's small, it will fit all of my essentials. I also like that the strap is cotton and not leather or PVC, it goes well with the vibe of the bag.  And finally I got this beautiful owl bag for myself. I LOV...

 Hello Loves!  I love jewellery and beaded and boho jewellery especially takes me back to my college days and reminds me of walking in flea markets and finding something beautiful and quirky to wear.  When I found Gemini Art and Craft I was reminded of the kind of jewellery I wore as a college student and I needed some of her creations in my life.  I got 3 earrings from her back in February and ordered a fresh batch of earrings this month too.  Here are my new acquisitions.  These earrings were love at first sight.  I love the quirkiness of these beauties.  Love the mix of colours, the textures and the beads and wool and cowries.  I can't wait to wear them.  The Goa vibe is so strong in these babies.  Love love love.  These are made from papier mache...I think.  They are super light weight and so pretty.  Immensely wearable.  These fish friends I bought for my sister.  A beautiful piece that will go with so...

Hello!  Today I want to share the cutest little jewellery with you from Vastriyan.   I spotted Vastiryan's jewellery on Instagram at some point last year and I kept seeing her beautiful designs and wanting some of my own. I finally got a few pieces of from her back in February and I am so in love with everything I got from her.  First up, everything is so well made and flawless and the quality is exceptional.  And obviously, everything is super stunning, from the jewellery itself to even the way in which it was packaged.  :)  Look at this embroidered pair of studs.  I love how the colours pop against the black.  So pretty.  These tiny lotus earrings with ghunghroos are perfect to wear when you don't want to wear something huge on your ears.  I also got these two embroidered rings.  So gorgeous.  These are adjustable and light weight and so lovely.  I wore the bigg...

It's roomy and comfy and perfect for a day of hopping from place to place.  :) 

Hello!  Today I want to share some recent loves.  I spotted Art Soul on Instagram and really loved their jewellery. Apart from being beautiful, these pieces are well priced as well.  We got some fabric jewellery and two wallets as well (not photographed).  I really loved everything I got and I cannot wait to wear these soon.  I got matching earrings and necklace in this pink, beige and green block print. I love the colours on this set.  The tassels are gorgeous too.  We also 4 fabric covered bangles.  I love fabric and cloth covered bangles and these four are the newest additions to my burgeoning collection. I love mixing fabric bangles with silver and wood bangles, I love the look of these mixed styles.  I have been buying fabric and textile jewellery for years now. Soma used to always have textile jewellery and I had bought some very pretty baubles from Jugaad during Dastakar Mela. I so happy to see ...

Hello!  Happy Saturday to you.  Today I want to share a darling little bag I bought from Suvasa , Jaipur on a my recent trip there.  I fell in love with the print and all it's little trimmings.  It was love at first sight. They had a few other bags in a similar style but I loved this one best.  I realised that I didn't have a black bag in the boho persuasion.  Plus, black and red is such a wonderful pairing.  This bag so many elements going on.  Pom-Poms. Tassels.  It adds to the bags charms immensely.  The yellow pops of colours go so well the monochrome colour palette.  Even it's inside is so pretty.  The bag is incredibly well-made and will fit a decent amount of stuff. Also, these colours will go with pretty much every single outfit!  Ah! My love for bags is so strong I really should just have a separate blog for my bag loving.  :)  Hope yo...
