I bought a new fancy winter coat. I bought it in Sarojini Nagar for the ridiculous figure of... Shall I tell you or will it make you look at my coat oddly? I bought it for ₹350. Yup. I think it's second hand. Preloved. Vintage? Who knows. It has this amazing embroidery detail all over it and is about a size too large but it has these amazing deep pockets that hold everything and it is so warm and snug. Plus it's this rich purple that makes me feel like the Queen. Winter is so boring for my fashion, I hate bundling up in layers but I have a new coat so it's not the worst. #whatiworetoday

Good morning! I'm off to speak (and listen) at the Times Delhi Lit Fest today but not before I share a poem I wrote on the flight yesterday. (i know the text is kinda squinty, but if you zoom in, you'll be able to read better, and it's worth it, I think.) #poem #ontheplane #feminism

Why do soaring palm trees under open blue skies remind us of Hollywood movies when they are, in fact, so South India? #traveldiary #bangalore

Lily and me on a night walk. I was pretending to be a French model with my little white fluffy dog (and my new shift dress! Better lit photos at a later point.) And she was all like "get on with it, Temporary Caretaker." still we're very photogenic, me and Lily. #rescuedog #bangalorediary #whatiworetoday

(This is a mushy post.)Ten years ago I met a cute boy and asked him to a party and then took a wistful picture of him because I was in a bad relationship and he was the sort of person I wanted to be with and I didn't think that would happen. I posted this five years ago also, and I can never get over how our lives collided to make this happen, and the everyday stuff of a long relationship is more romantic in a weird sitting around in your underwear and being gross sometimes and all of it: sleeping, eating, living, having cats, farting occasionally, traveling together it's all so much better than I thought was possible ten years ago so I guess I'm reminding myself of that fact. #throwback

From yesterday: view from the roof garden in Bangalore. Storm clouds in the distance. High rises on the right and the military airport in front of us. Every now and then a little plane will go over and it's ridiculously loud, so you do pay a price for the pretty. #traveldiary #bangalore

K's mum's dog who we are looking after while she travels, is a sweet rescue Pom/Spitz and still cringes when I try to pet her. She was found in horrific circumstances and adopted from @cupabangalore and it still makes me angry to think about how awful humans can be. #poem #adoptdontshop #rescuedog
