Dear Reader

The heat is on and vacations are on the top of all our minds. It’s time to revamp your wardrobe and look for new accessories and outfits. Black is, of course, ever y woman’s perennial favourite, but since the scorching heat puts the brakes on that colour, why not select outfits and accessories in bright and vibrant shades?Former Miss India World Sayali Bhagat shows you how. She combines swimming pool chic with subtle sophistication. She adds edge to summer wear yet is relaxed enough to wear a cool, breezy kaftan.

We have an interesting mix of interviews this issue with Kyra Shroff the highest-rated junior tennis player in India; Kiran Trivedi of the marble industr y who has taken a simple one-dimensional product to new heights and Jamshed Dotivala whose family has been in the baker y business for over six generations.

Vaibhavi Merchant, the Bollywood choreographer who has worked with every major star from Shah Rukh to Shahid Kapoor and is currently touring with the musical ‘Merchants of Bollywood’ based on her life, provides some interesting insider insights.

The search for his ancestral roots and residence has led Harianto Mehta to take some breathtaking pictures of Myanmar. Enjoy the visual treat.

And, finally, for cigar aficionados, Daniel Carroll, co-founder of the Cigar Club of Mumbai, offers insightful tips on the ultimate lifestyle statement.

I am going to be watch- struck this month as I am writing this edit from Baselworld, Switzerland. I will share my experiences with you in the next issue which will be a watch special.

Till then keep those letters coming. Tell us what you like and what you don’t. We love to receive feedback from you.
