The modern world has turned environmental care into elaborate performance art. We've created a stage where sustainability must be visible, shareable, and aesthetically pleasing to count as real. The props are expensive: aloe vera everything, glass containers arranged with museum-like precision, colour-coordinated compost systems that look better than most kitchen décor. The script is rigid: you must document your virtue, quantify your impact, and maintain the illusion that ca

It was traditionally on Ashtami that the laal paar sada sari made its most important appearance. This was when married Bengali women drape themselves in this specific sari for the special prayers and ceremonies of the day (Ashtamir Anjali). The white body represented purity and new beginnings, while the red border symbolized shakti—the divine feminine energy that Maa Durga herself embodied. The combination was considered especially auspicious for invoking the Goddess's blessi

We live in an age of unprecedented information overload. From in-depth articles on astrophysics to tutorials on sustainable fashion, from podcasts on mindful living to insightful analyses of the latest tech innovations – it's all there, waiting to be consumed. And while this abundance is a modern marvel, it also presents a significant challenge: how do we navigate this endless ocean of information without drowning?

The Banarasi bridal wear saree crowns her with legacy. Golden zari glimmers through lush silk, reflecting centuries of refinement. Motifs of lotus, peacock, and intertwining vines speak in whispers of prosperity, grace, and continuity.

It is about the founder’s personal credibility, obsession, and long-term connection to the space. When this alignment exists, the startup gains a resilience that no competitor can easily replicate.

Treat logging out as a choice that elevates daily life. Close the laptop not because you must, but because you value your own rhythm. Keep the phone away not because it distracts, but because you deserve stillness. The luxury lies not in technology itself, but in the freedom to step outside of it.

Space is not only about watching rockets on livestreams. It is about better internet on your phone, accurate weather forecasts on your app, and sustainable solutions in your city. Every conscious consumer, fashion lover, or entrepreneur is already part of the new space economy — even if they don’t realize it yet.

It’s the style of weekend designer travellers and city dwellers alike, a fashion language that bridges ease and distinction. Let your wardrobe whisper luxury, not shout it.

A phone-free breakfast becomes a ritual of clarity. Walking to work instead of scrolling during a cab ride opens the senses to the city’s rhythm. Cooking a simple meal turns from a chore into a grounding practice. None of these acts demand more hours. They demand more presence.

In this feature, we step into the world of such collections, where weavers not just weave a rug, but in reality, they turn into storytellers.

That said, is digital a really sustainable alternative? Are we really just piling up more information in our heads and folders? Isn't it time to reflect upon our energy usage everytime we upload our thoughts to the cloud?

Instead of letting clothes end up in landfills, circular fashion ensures they stay in the loop through repair, resale, upcycling, or recycling. A saree becoming a quilt, a kurta turning into cushion covers, or a handwoven fabric being re-dyed and re-loved — these are all small acts of circularity.
