About 200 readers gave me their feedback through the survey. I was mentally prepared for some nasty and mean comments, considering it was anonymous and open to all! However, to my surprise, I did not receive even one 'unreasonable' feedback. There was constructive criticism (to which I am open) but not with a personal vendetta.
A lot of you made a lot of requests, to which I will try and attend but I cannot promise anything. I like blogging to be a balance between what I want to write about and what my readers like to read. Sometimes Most times, my wants trump over readers' but then we have already established that I am selfish! [:P] The best outcome out of the feedback was the amount of material I have got to blog about. Now, in future, whenever I lack the inspiration to write I can always refer to what all of you have shared! I cannot answer to all your questions in one post but below are my response to what I was asked by the majority! :)
Food - I will try and post more healthy recipes but since cooking posts take a lot more time and planning than outfit posts they are always my last choice! [:P]
Fitness - When did I start working out? How much do I weigh? What do I eat? How do I stay motivated? I have answered ALL these questions and much more on my Fitness Page. I put all my time and energy and organized my fitness posts from Day 1, in an easy to browse manner. If you have read ALL of the posts and still can find something to ask me, then please do! I am always happy to help! [:)]
Fashion - Some of you said you find my styling over-the-top and would like to see me in 'simpler' outfits. I complete respect your opinion but this is who I am. Personally, I think I dress according to my mood, and sometimes I do dress simple (like here, here, here, here, here and here) but 'how simple?', that is subjective, isn't it? But I complete understand where you are coming from and on the days when I *think* I am dressing simple, I will definitely remember my anonymous readers :)
Most of you only had kind things to say about everything and gave a very supportive and encouraging feedback. I think I am going to continue blogging for a longggg time ;)
On an absolutely unrelated topic, I am wearing the lace up oxfords sent to me by courtesy of Wanted Shoes a few weeks back. I wore them ALL day and walked around the city and they were SUPER comfortable and Super cute too! I love them. Don't you?

ReplyDeleteI would slap anyone who asked for my weight. I get mad at the elliptical machine at the gym for insisting on doing that!
ReplyDeleteYour hair is so gorgeous! Love the floral shirt and the brogues!
ReplyDeleteI do not find your outfits over the top at all.
ReplyDeleteLife is too short to wear boring clothes, anyway.
You blog about whatever you are, like and enjoy, Tanvi.

Persis.
looking good. i love the first picture. well captured.
ReplyDeleteKeep doing what you do - it's fabulous! And I've already said to you what I'd like to see and you answered so thank you :D
ReplyDeleteSimple is subjective - like I think that flats, jeans and a top is simple but then when you wear it like you do it goes from 'simple' to 'perfect'.
Hey T !
ReplyDeleteA very summery outfit !
Don't be off sugar for long, u look great.

ReplyDeletealso congratulations on the positive feedback on the survey...although there's one thing i have realized about the blogging world...it's all about you scratch my back n i scratch yours...never take the praise or criticism too seriously:-)
I LOVE YOUR SHOES § NICE OUTFIT
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only person with a crooked smile! Yours, obviously, is much cuter. :)
ReplyDeleteOver-The-Top styling? I had a boyfriend who once accused me of that, needless to say he's now an "ex".
ReplyDeleteStay as you are, you're perfect. xxx
Very cute outfit! I'm loving that handbag, and I NEED to see that jacket on you sometime! It looks amazing from what I can tell in these photos!
ReplyDeleteThe shoes look good, but your crooked smile, even better:):)
ReplyDeletei've seen these lace oxfords before and i thought that if i'm going to get any oxfords, i'd have to get these!
ReplyDeletelove your responses here as well--glad most of it was encouraging feedback. yes, keep blogging for a long time!
I'm glad you got positive feedback! I think your blog is fine the way it is. :)
ReplyDeleteI think you should only incorporate whatever is relevant to you and what is in your life. :) Just as long as you continue to stay true.
Enjoy your weekend. :)
xoxo,
Mel

The shoes are very cute and the entire look summery :) I like over-the-top and infact I dnt think your style is over-the-top-runway-unwearable-obnoxious-kind...you know what I mean? They are wearable and fun :D
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't say you dress over-the-top at all! You just look put-together, is that the same? :)
ReplyDeletehey great shoes .. and that top is amazing ...
ReplyDelete200 feedback oh my! you're quite famous on blogworld ...
ReplyDeletehere after a long time...hope all is well...
take care
the smell awaits you :)
yay im really looking forward to some recipe posts :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you got positive feedback.
ReplyDeleteLove the shoes!
Love the closeup!
Love the bench with all your stuff.
I also think you dress 'over the top' but I like that about you. I use to dress like that, but for some reason I stopped. Why? I don't know. Maybe a lifestyle change?
Really smart you are :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm loving the oxfords! The whole outfit is perfect.
ReplyDeleteThe "simpler outfits" request seems...odd. It's great that everyone felt comfortable enough to give their honest opinions, but I'm so glad you responded as you did, that couldn't have been better. I think you make fashion your own which is what fashion is all about, and the result is always wonderful. But at the same time your style is accessible to others - I myself have felt inspired by plenty of your past looks. I just love that you have the confidence to do what you want, because it works out perfectly. Your wants are your readers' wants in many cases, I think. Everyone always says, "Write a blog that you would want to read!"
Lace-up brogues are topping my list of "wanted" stuff right now! And I find your blouse nice & summery....... :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you only got positive feedback and no nasty comments. Love this outfit, this is simple and chic:) me like. Hope you enjoyed London. not sure you're still here on not.
ReplyDeleteDena x
I think you look stunning in whatever you wear, even if it's something I wouldn't wear. Don't ever let people dictate what you wear. Circumstance, maybe. Weather, sure. But people? Just a blog reader behind a screen that you may or may not know? Nope. I think you look gorgeous here though0 I love those shoes.
ReplyDeleteTanvi,
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to what you write with your heart in it.
Take care
Dont know if this is simple, but it looks absolutely comfortable! specially the shoes :)
ReplyDeleteI like the shoes and the smile is cute.

OMG I adore those shoes! Why would you readers want you in "simple outfits"? They come to your blog to see your style. Doesn't make much sense to me, I like your style!
ReplyDeleteDarling shoes! Super jealous :) Adoring your style.

Hi Tanvi!
ReplyDeleteI agree with your point on fashion and how you dress to how you feel. Often times, bloggers feel pressured to confirm to what will get the most "hits" or "comments" or lookbook "hype". I have experimented so many times with my look but always come back to what makes me feel comfortable. If I want to wear something different and wild I won't hold back...I adore this quote by Adeline Rapon: "I will never have a static, defined style, and neither will any one else.
Finally! You in your new shoes! :D Love love love! How are you so fabulous Tanvi ? :D
ReplyDeletewww.arty-heart.blogspot.com
Hey tanvi :) you should so totally add a 'I made this' or something like that button to the food section where you can have people click on it for the recipes you have put up :) I have made quite of few and it was very good :)
ReplyDeleteI really like those shoes...they look super comfy...and CHIC!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogging!
