Let's get this party moving

1 of 30
We finally got it going ... Yay! Can you tap on my excitement?
Ring - ASOS [10']; Trumpet Necklace - River Island [10']

Wearing (2), (3), (20) & (28) from My Picks: 30 for 30

Now that we have taken care of the business, can we talk about what is on my mind? Today, Upasna's Post got me thinking whether I am still a Daddy's girl or now have I converted to a Mumma's girl?!? I have always taken pride in being - Daddy's Girl! but now I feel the lines are getting blurry. Don't get me wrong when asked, "Who is your favorite parent?" I will still say 'Dad!' in a heartbeat, only 'coz I hate when people say, "Oh! both! How can you choose between the two?" or "It is such a difficult choice!" I force myself to choose just so I do not sound like others! [Rebel? Proudly, "Yeah!"


Anyhoo, but today I think I am a great amalgam of both! Here's how, 
1) I take risks [Like Dad] but I am very careful with money [Like Mom]
2) I am social [Like Dad] but uncompromising about my privacy [Like Mom]
3) I am easy going [Like Dad] and adaptable [Like Mom]
4) I am compassionate [Like Dad] and caring [Like Mom]
5) I am charming [Like Dad] and fashionable [Like Mom]


Hey! If you think I sound pompous, consider this - I am counting my parents' positives ;)
Oh! But I forgot to mention the most important one - 
6) I am a Travel-o-holic [Like Dad & Mom]


...But on second thought, aren't I too old to be Daddy's or Mommy's girl!? *hmmmmm*

I love your big book clutch! :)

Why aren't you wearing your bangs? :(

I'm more of a mumma's girl but of course dad's the hero!

Upasna said... Best Blogger Tips

Noone's ever too old to be mummy/daddy's girl :) And of course you can choose. You know my sister was sick early this year, and all she wanted was dad by her side. For me, ma's always been the one. And that in no way means I love dad any less or don't have his qualities in me (I do, I mean it's a mix of both, like your list). But I think it's fine to say, I miss ma more ;)

Oh and I love the yellow! Also the trumpet :)

Hippie Holly said... Best Blogger Tips

Love all the sunshine yellow and that trumpet pendant is fabulous!!! Very very cute.

Ah...I'm a Daddy's Girl....but for all the silly small and big things, I call my mum to get instant advice. But if something is really bothering me dad is the only one who can make it all better!

Lee Oliveira said... Best Blogger Tips

Looking fab and the trumpet necklace is too cute. I think I was like my dad but becoming more like my mom as I grow older:-)

Vintage Vixen said... Best Blogger Tips

You look fabulous in yellow! Love the trumpet necklace and the cocktail ring. xxx

Fashion, Art and other fancies said... Best Blogger Tips

The sunny yellow looks fabulous especially against your dark hair and skin. And the necklace is the prettiest touch. I'm both a daddy and mommy's girl;-)

HiFashion said... Best Blogger Tips

I love the yellow you're wearing!!! Especially love the shoes.

I'm defintely still a daddy's girl, and I think I always will be, hehe.

Chic 'n Cheap Living said... Best Blogger Tips

What fun colors!

You sound like the perfect mix of your parents! I'm a travel-holic too! I already started looking through the public holidays here next year to see when we could go on vacations!

Leia said... Best Blogger Tips

I don't think we are ever to old to be a daddy's girl or a mummy's girl! I feel like I am a mix of both of my parents. Everyone says I have "daddy's brains and mummy's looks" - which I don't think is true (daddy is MUCH smarter and mummy is MUCH prettier!) but y'know, it's a compliment, so I'll take it :P

shuchita said... Best Blogger Tips

love the bright yellow, I think you are always mommy or daddy's girl no longer how old you are and always look up to them for approval, support and all the other things
especially true in our culture where family ties are so strong

shooting star said... Best Blogger Tips

we are never too old to be daddy's or momma's girls!!!!!

liking your luk today...... :))

Geeta said... Best Blogger Tips

I love the clutch and that is a gorgeous yellow.

Polka Princess said... Best Blogger Tips

Cool one girl.....the big book clutch & the trumpet necklace sure takes the cake!!! AND I'm one major Mamma's girl......sad or happy, excited or angry, giving or taking advice, it's Mom for me all the way......maybe that's bcoz Dad has been living away on work for most of my growing-up years....
Anyways, waiting to see more of takes on your challenge! Keep rocking!! :)

Love your big book clutch and necklace :) very stylish outfit!

Dusk said... Best Blogger Tips

Simple yet highly effective look honey! Love that yellow!

I love your list of traits. I too would have this reasoning. I have always been my father's daughter but as I get older, I see my mother in me... her laugh, her features... which is weird because I look so much like my father! And I get my height and personality from him! My love of politics and literature and science and boxing and rugby too! [he was a politician and a member of Mensa and was a boxer, he taught me how to box and fight!]
...BUT... I have inherited many traits from my mother... my fashion sense for sure... her ability and talent to make and create, her empathy and compassion (I hope!), her musical talent (my mum plays sitar and tabla, she also used to sing and was rather famous for her voice), her esoteric curiosity...

I can't define my filial allegiance!! I'm going to be a conformist and sit on the fence! I may have been Dad's rajkumari but I was also my mother's ladli!

...you are SO funny... I seriously adore you... I completely know why you are the light of your parents eye... I would be damn PROUD to have you as my daughter.

Dekh lo. Bana diya apne aap ko budhiya... :D

AG said... Best Blogger Tips

Great outfit to celebrate the start of 30 for 30. I'm a mixture of both parents for sure -in looks and temperament.

sulagna ™ said... Best Blogger Tips

no wonder i was not getting your updates..i thought i was following you..but :(

anyways problem solved..and did i i tell you theres something about these pictures and your smile that shouts "sunny side up "

Anita... said... Best Blogger Tips

Mommy and Daddy are always the best! I just realized that one reason one should not get married earlier is to spend more time with them..traveling after the entire university phase gets over..it's just something that personally I have found hard to do how many ever times we plan..(though, it's good your mom comes to visit and you guys explore America.. :-) )

love the yellow. SO HAPPY!!

I really like the royal blue sweater and the way you dressed it up with the belt and all..just something I would see in a magazine..and you pull if off with ZEST!!

Excited to see more photos of the 30/30!

Poohkie said... Best Blogger Tips

Am a daddy's girl I guess. I'm like him in looks & personality, good traits & bad.

BTW, where'd you get the bangles? Are they silk thread ones?
