Circa 2014-India
On my Travelogue filming in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. Whilst filming in the streets, this beautiful bright eyed little girl walks up hurriedly to me, 1 baby sister in her arms & the other clasped to her right hip. As she approached,my heart sank. They had no shoes or slippers on their tiny feet

“Tum philm staar ho?!” (“You are a movie star?!”) she squealed excitedly in Hindi. I laughed so hard! I asked where her parents were,in broken-conversational Hindi (Bollywood movie-fan-advantage)
She shrugged her shoulders high & boldly reached out for my hair. With every stroke, her eyes twinkled as she said, “pyaari” (“lovely”) ..
I was choking tears. These street children were barely clothed & yet had the biggest smile on their faces. I tickled the baby in her arms

They continued to stay & watched in awe as our cameras rolled. When we wrapped filming, I rushed to our van to get my supply of chocolates,candy & the only shawl I brought with me on the trip
They squealed in delight as I passed the purple plastic to the hip clasping little one. It was time to go & I hugged them tight,told them to keep safe on the streets
3 very brave little girls all alone with no one to protect them

They waved & smiled as I made my way back to the vehicle with an aching heart. I couldn’t.I stopped in my tracks, removed my shoes, turned around & passed my nude flats to the big sister.She took them gently & uttered “pyaari!” clutching my chin in her calloused little palms.I hugged her one last time. As we drove past, I smiled my biggest smile for them, welling tears.I was relieved or rather pacified my heart, they would have the big warm shawl & some chocolates to keep warm & happy for some days more

This little girl & her sisters changed my life that day in ways they will never know. It hit me. Doesnt really doesn’t matter if the glass is empty or full. I am thankful to have a glass with something in it
And to always be consciously thankful.Because if you are really thankful, you share

I hope your smile is still as bright & your eyes twinkling my Pyaari❤️

Barbell Sumo Parallel Squat emphasizing on building strength in the hips 🍑 & posterior chain (entire back chain)
___
One of my fave as well, to coach ladies & guy clients because this is a squat variation that uses wide stance & stops at parallel depth = easier for those with limited movement. You can try to switch it with a Dumbbell or Bodyweight alternatively
___
1) Grip the bar with your palms clasping each other
2) Begin the movement by driving the hips first, sit back
3) Take a big breath & tighten the stomach
4) Explode off the floor from the heels & big toes, extending your knee & hips
5) Keep a neutral spine position throughout the exercise

The question is asked, “Is there anything more beautiful in life than a boy and a girl clasping clean hands and pure hearts in the path of marriage? Can there be any thing more beautiful than young love?”
.
And the answer is given. “ Yes there is a more beautiful thing. It is an old man and an old woman finishing their life’s journey together on that path. Their hands are gnarled, but still clasped; their faces are wrinkled but still radiant; their hearts are physically bowed and tired, but still strong with love and devotion for one another. Yes there is a more beautiful thing than young love. Old love.”
.
Let us be old love too, love, me & you.

We will make the hair into braids.
A substitute for hair band….these beads.
By clasping the braids, it will become a clip.
Each side will be made into three braids.
First, just take a bunch, divide it into three, and make each into braids.
The braids can be a little loose.
When it is done up to here…
Choose your favorite to clip on.
Just like this.
I will continue to do the rest.
I have the other parts in a clean cut so I don’t have much volume, but if the more braids you can make, the cuter it will get.
I would like to pin my bangs.
For the pin, the small ones are easier to use.
The biggest one is this size.
The reason behind is that, when the hair comes off due to the weight, or as you can see, the reverse side is like this, but when there are many parts to clip on, the round shape of the bangs will disappear and it will not look cute.
Therefore choose one size. The color can be of your choice, but if so many are pink or blue, when all of the hair pins are on, the part would look bulky and destroy the balance of the color. It would be better when you spread it out and use many colors evenly.
On the top part, this type which has a curling pin on the reverse side,
is what we will use.
For the bottom part, this easy to clip-on type will keep on and will not fall off.
Based on such thoughts, I decide how much to keep or buy.
From the top, hold the bottom of this hair and clip it as if letting it go through.
Use this as much as possible, the numbers are up to you, and much as you want.
The easiest to use is probably the ribbon type.
When you use the star, the bangs may split like this, so you should hide the split with your hair a little.
Even with the same motif, there are ones with different colors, shiny ones, made in different colors, etc., so find the balance you like and use what you think will look cute.
The upper part is the curling pin.
For the lower part, I will use a tic tac.
Look at the balance of colors and choose your own color.
The key to today’s fashion coordination is the dress.
This dress is from my brand, 90884 and it has a sticker pattern on it. This pattern comes from my childhood obsession of collecting stickers, and the desire to wear them.
It isl using enamel to make a material mix, so it is given some futuristic impression.
Matching with the style, I am wearing a rainbow socks today.
As the image is “cheerful”, for the bottoms, I am wearing balloon pants.
