    TexValley, a large Textile Mall in Erode

    22nd December 2021 /

    After our trip to Sankagiri Fort and then our Lunch, a friend recommended we visit one of the largest Textile Malls in the state before we go back to the hotel in Salem where we were staying. Called TexValley the malls are in Erode (Google map), about 75 minutes from Salem City and is on the National Highway 544 (Salem to Kochi). TexValley is an initiative of the local entrepreneurs in the region and supported by the Ministry of Textiles, Government of India and Government of Tamil Nadu. The region comprises Coimbatore, Tirupur and Erode – they form the Textile Valley of Tamil Nadu, hence the name for the mall.…

    Smart tip for wearing a new shirt

    20th April 2019 /

    No school will teach you this, only age and experience will!   Never plan to wear a new (ready-made or bespoke) shirt without removing it from the packing and having it pressed (ironed). Shirts get creases in the folds when kept inside the bag. Always, remove the shirts from the bag, press it and then fold it lightly or hang them – ready for wearing.

    My new fedora hat

    26th March 2019 /

    For Chennai’s summer, a hat looks better and feels comfortable than a cap. Does it suit me? I bought the hat from Amazon India for Rs.247, called the “Fully Men’s Fedora Hat” it is made out of cotton and jute. My black hair is not happy to be hidden inside the hat, though!

    Reusable Cloth bags are back in vogue

    19th March 2019 /

    I am not an environment freak like my son. I don’t avoid using plastics, responsible usage I should add. I feel plastics have been unfairly targetted by the millennials, the material has made a tremendous contribution to human life and comfort. The problem has been how we use it, what for, where and how we dispose of safely (still an unsolved problem for the scientists) it. I have been inspired by my mother when it comes to reusing anything good including plastic bags (read this example). I have been trying to use biodegradable garbage bags. I was missing the convenience of plastic bags was when it comes to ad-hoc unplanned…

    My new Mens Purse

    22nd June 2016 /

    I had written here about my purchase in 2014 of a messenger bag or shoulder bag that I use to carry my iPad, few accessories and cash. It was the best purchase I ever made, the bag has super convenient. The other day my father-in-law traveled and I gave the bag to him so that he carry his travel document easily. That meant I had to shop for a new bag for myself, I looked online. I found this one – Gauge Machine messenger bag for Rs.1799 from Myntra. With dimensions of Height: 19 cm, Width: 16 cm & Depth: 5.5 cm I think I went for something too small…
