ThePinkMateProject Travel: India - Jaipur, The Pink City (Part 2)

This is my second post for Jaipur.  One thing I love about India is their love for handicrafts, they are soooo good at it! We went around Jaipur and bought some of their handiwork  the details are just unbelievable.  My mistake is I should have bought more items! More scarves, notebooks, pants, kurtas, accessories and wood blocks!  


Puppets for sale.  The little kid is singing for his customers :) Adorable!
Vibrant colors of different bracelets with interesting details!  My mistake I didn't buy any!
We really want to come here, this is the facade of Anokhi Museum of Hand Printing.
Different woodblock designs, I want to buy all of them!
Gorgeous Anokhi scarves, I bought a few of those
he showed us how it's done, he is an artist!
The "Curious George" in me will have to try hand woodblock printing (not easy!)
This is Jal-Mahal, built in the middle of Mansagar Lake
Indian leather shoes sold at the site where you can view the Jal-Mahal
The Market near City Palace (see that peacock print skirt? I should've bought that one! Arghh!)
This camel was being sold to my friend for 20,000 rupees only! Seriously? If only I can bring a camel home I would! I love them!
This is Jantar Mantar - This is an observatory built by Maharaja Jai-Singh II.  Check out the   large sun dial!
This little kiddo is so cute! And I love the color-blocking of this outfit!
I am an ARIAN, a pose under the zodiac sign is a must!

Next post will be our trip to AGRA! 

I was wearing: 
Pink Kaftan from Greehills
Forever 21 jeans
Payless ballet flats
H & M scarf

ThePinkMateProject Travel: INDIA - JAIPUR, THE PINK CITY! (Part 1)

Hey loves! I am soooo sorry I have been an absentee blogger! I know it has been awhile, but this pinkmate is so busy!

I would like to tell you guys that an exciting thing happened to me last week, I had an opportunity to go to India! To tell you the truth, I was not as excited, but believe me when I arrived in the airport, it was a pleasant surprise! I love the details in the airport, it shows so much of their culture! 

There will be series of posts for my India travel, one post is not enough and will not justify how interesting and beautiful India is!



New Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport
That's me in pink kaftan, of course when you're in the Pink City you have to wear pink! Haha!
I just can't get enough photos at Amber Fort, Jaipur

I love the arches!
Gorgeous courtyard
This is my favorite part of the palace, Hall of Mirrors in Amber Fort
Gorgeous marble latticework! 
The famous "Magic Flower"
Snake charmers (there's no real cobra by the way, so it was a disappointment)
Hallways

Awesome view at Amber Fort!
