Hello and Happy Tuesday! I hope your’e week started off great! Today I’d like to share these colorful pics of a brunch I hosted for a post Mother’s Day celebration with my cousins.


Third time’s a charm
We’ve been trying to meetup for almost a month! Each time we had to cancel because of a kid being sick, or a Mom being sick and finally this past weekend everything went smoothly and we actually got to meetup and hangout.





Festive Saris
I’m always looking for opportunities to wear a sari 🥰. I just love wearing these colorful attire! On this warm June day I wore a gauzy organza pistachio colored sari with pearl and lace embroidery. I really had fun wearing it 🥰.





I did ask my cousins to join me in wearing a sari too and they happily agreed 🥰.
Refreshments in the Courtyard
First refreshments in the courtyard before we toured the garden 🌺.
