Sep 28, 2015- A cocktail party is a fad in big fat weddings nowadays, and so have elaborate and voluminous cocktail gowns! But before you head to buy such an outfut, it's best to evaluate your body type and choose something that offers comfort, says an expert.

Divya Sisodia, fashion stylist, VioletStreet.com, an online shopping destination, has shared tips on how to choose a cocktail dress that can flatter you:

* Before picking a cocktail dress, evaluate your body type on whether it is pear shaped, rectangle shaped, apple shaped, petite, bony, boxy or full-figured.

* Instead of blindly following the trend spotters, opt for a dress which is comfortable and suits you. For example, apple shaped women, who carry most of the fat around their abdominal region and often have a large bust and waist, but narrow hips, must opt for soft fabrics rather than fabrics that would cling to their body. Cocktail dresses with flowing or A-line cuts are perfect for pear shapes, as they silhouette the hips beautifully.

* Full-figured and plus size women must choose dark coloured dresses that make them look thinner.

* Accessories are a great way to add oomph to an evening look. It can help to add one’s own flair to a dress that might be beautiful on its own. Even a simple black dress becomes a style statement when paired with a pair of edgy earrings and spiked heels. You can also use interesting or chunky neckpieces to divert attention to your upper body than to your lower body.

* Don’t try to fit into ill-fitting cocktail dresses as they will only make you feel and look uncomfortable.

* To create an hourglass delusion, highlight your waistline. Blouson dresses that gather around the waist add a curve to the upper hip and show off your perfect legs. You can further enhance your waistline with a wide belt or corset belt in a contrasting colour to your cocktail dress.

Tonight  is this year's first fog in the city  .It's smell approaches  me through the crevices on bottom of window frames .
.
Our days  of memories forbid me to sleep . My eyelids heave with the excitement at which my thoughts want to celebrate your immortality within me .My eyelashes are too heavy with tears to be lifted up .
.
I am reminded of the time when I was so scared of the water stretches and their depth until I looked deep in your eyes that flooded , held a hundred tides of reasons , an accumulation of all the why whirling on a monotonous note .
.
I am reminded of the lesson that pain isn't abstract , it heaves in the familiar undiscovered parts of my body   when I breathe in your absence.
.
I close my eyes tonight   and when I take the name of universe and god, I see the vision of your face . As I isolate from the worldly tantrums and try sinking deep in my conscience,  I am draped with the feelings you offered me in all ways .

Replied, I love girls to love you!

Today marks fourth anniversary of tragic deaths
an aching breaking heart – mine
remembers four extinguished breaths.

(dashed – not while riding off
in a white horse open sleigh,
but upon learning untimely demise
regarding prosperous family, whose small
plane crashed August 8, 2019.

They lived ~ three doors down from us
farther than one can toss a Buffalo nickelback.)

The victims included;
Jasbir Khurana, 60
(a professor of pathology
and laboratory medicine
at Temple University's
Lewis Katz School of Medicine);
Divya Khurana, 54 (a professor
of pediatrics and neurology
at the Drexel University
College of Medicine,
specializing in pediatrics, sleep) ;
and the couple's youngest daughter
Kiran Khurana 19 years old.

No words can assuage the deep sorrow,
this once upon a time neighbor
(I lived at 1148 Greentree Lane) experienced
disbelief, numbness, shock...
attendant by an irreparable loss of beloved,
and vacillated how to communicate
heartfelt (I cannot ex spleen) sympathy,
where words superfluous,
yet... if for that challenge alone,
an affinity with language

spurred impulse to focus upon
bountiness of joie de vivre
imbibed years gone by,
when every now and
again chance encounters
found yours truly (me)
in delightful company
regarding persons whose presence
imbued benevolence, kindness, warmth...
facilitating emotional philanthropy

influenced long term positive memories
to one experienced being
outcast, ostracized, offensive...
courtesy unfortunate series
of circumstances beyond my control,
which voiced unwelcome tension
sabotaged reaching quality politeness
displeased at unfriendly reactions
reflexively, maliciously, impetuously...
did little or no justice

toward conflict resolution
which altercations nearly,
quickly did segway profoundly
into unpleasant standoffs,
yes bias, bigotry, bitterness
begat bisel meshuga
acutely aware I loathe
uncouth actions regarding myself
and strive to remain
affable, cordial, friendly...,

hence an object lesson,
(albeit ex post facto)
to abide by my inner integrity,
ethos, dogma politesse...,
especially when pitted against
unsavory electric acid kool aid test
tis then urgently vital to remain
steadfast, and figuratively
turn the other cheek
particularly when populace

under severe duress
re: instigated by pathologically
belligerent, ill mannered, rude...
former president whose
set abhorrent precedence,
whereby people of nation follow suit,
yet this nonconformist only hopes
to affect positive within
webbed wide world at large.

It   was a   long,  long  quest
by  the   nation which invented  chess,
to get  a  gold  at   Olympiad.
True,  silver and bronze,
gifted Individuals like Rafiq  and Viji
got in the past,  
but  never  the team gold
till   the  Budapest  Olympiad.
Well, the Olympiad  held  at  Hungary,
the land  of Magyars  and  the  mighty  Polgars,
Lo, arrived    the  young  Indian masters,  men and women
Carrying the  legacy  of  the   Tiger of  Madras
and  the hopes  of  millions of   Indians  and  fans  elsewhere,
Fully  charged,  determined  for deeds  greater,
The   vyuha  of  the  men’s  team   crafted  carefully
by   Srinath, the coach.
Fiery  Gukesh was fielded in the top board
Arjun  played  aggressive  chess  and  
Pragg  played  soli­d  and  attacked  the foe,
as  the  battle-board  demanded
The  team’s   fortunes, strengthened   further
By the  heroics  of  Vidit and  Hari
The   champion chess colts’  majestic  march
boasted  wins  against  rivals, arch
Hungary,  America,  Slovenia
Chess Continents   crumbled  at the
Concentrated  attacks  of the  young  Indian  warriors
Who  tamed  all  and   emerged  victorious
The  young Indian  women’s  team of Kunte,
Matched the talent and  deeds  of  the Indian men
Harika  Dronavalli  at  top  board, drawing and winning,
Assuring   a  solid  support,  with hopes  dawning
Divya  Deshmukh,  the  darling of  the Olympiad
And  the  fearless tigress of  the  team,
Attacked  all-out  in    her  games,
Going for  the **** and  scoring  points at  will.
Vantika  and Vaishali  defended  well,
At times, the inferior  positions  in  their  tables,
Only  to  turn the  tables, at  the right  time,
With their  counter  attacks  and crafty play.
Tania  Sachdev  rendered  solid  support
By her  steady play and steely nerves.
Came  final round, the  young Indian women
Taught  the Azerbaijanis, a  lesson or two over the board
Picked up  the lion’s  share  of points in their hoard
And  in the  process, won  the Olympiad  gold!
