This issue, we’re celebrating romance. A union between two people in different stages of intimacy—first glances, long conversations, sleepless nights, a grand proposal, and the big wedding. And the biggest union this year is that of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, now the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Read more about their whirlwind romance in our celebrity proposals feature (pg166) while I imagine myself in a bejewelled tiara somewhere in the English countryside (there’s something very enchanting about a rural setting) hobnobbing with the royal family. And while we’re talking about couples smitten by each other, lets not forget our cover star Fawad Khan and his wife of 12 years, couturier Sadaf Khan. Accompanying Fawad on the cover is Mahira Khan, celebrated actor, single mother, and a sight to behold…
Q: What is the one ingredient the skincare industry is obsessing over? Green tea—it has amazing benefits, anti-inflammatory properties, and antioxidants that can delay skin ageing, expression lines, and wrinkles. One can use a green tea and honey face mask with leftover leaves from your cup of tea to delay ageing. Q: What are the skincare products you regularly use and swear by? I am currently using the Innisfree Green Tea Seed Serum, the My Real Squeeze Mask Sheet—Rose and Pomegranate, and the Super Volanic Pore Clay Mask. The serum reopens the water path of dehydrated skin to restore a clear and dewy complexion. The mask sheet refreshes the skin while making it firm and radiant. And, the clay mask takes care of all possible pore-related problems. It helps in…
Q: What is the ideal location for your dream wedding? I’d like the nuptials to take place at a location which is of significance to us. For now, I envision it happening in my home. I don’t think there can be a better setting which would provide me more joy, comfort, and peace of mind than the surroundings I grew up in. Q: What will the décor be like? I love flowers, and soft muted tones. I don’t think it gets better than that. No fabric and no unnecessary installations. Q: What kind of food would you like at your wedding? I would love to have a mix of all cuisines, so that the guests have plenty of options. Q: What would your fashion and beauty looks be like? I…
Q: What is your ideal location for a dream wedding? Ideally, in the mountains somewhere, maybe at a quaint and serene place in Himachal Pradesh or Uttaranchal. Q: What kind of décor would you like? Something effortless—think wild floral decorations and dried grass. The colour palette should encompass pristine whites and warm beiges. Q: What kind of food would you have at your wedding? A sit-down dinner served on linen clad tables with wild flowers, twigs, and grass. The food should be a mix of traditional and contemporary, with refreshing drinks and delicious sangrias. Q: What kind of clothes, accessories, and jewellery should the bride and groom wear? I envision beautiful garments in soft pastels with hints of silver, minimal gold, and soft floral prints, complemented with layers of linens and organzas.…

JANUARY: garnet The word ‘garnet’ comes from the 14th-century Middle English word gernet meaning ‘dark red’. Symbolising deep and lasting friendship, some say this gemstone has the power to give the wearer eternal health, happiness, and wealth. The stone is so durable, remnants of garnet jewellery can be found as far back as from the Bronze Age. Mostly found to resemble a ruby, it can also come in a range of colours with rare garnets in green or blue. If you want to purchase a garnet for yourself or your loved one, it is great to commemorate an anniversary of a January-born person. PAIR IT WITH A rose quartz should be your choice if you are looking for love, be it for self or of the romantic kind. FEBRUARY: amethyst…
