O.S.A.

Often I hear myself exclaiming aloud – “What would we do without Google”. Rather, what would we do, without the internet. 

While in  India, I realised that I have the early symptoms of what is commonly known as ‘Online Shopping Addiction’. Flipkart was my best friend and I would spend quite chunk of my meagre salary on books, bags, laptop skins and the likes.

I continued to remain rather envious of friends in the US or the UK, because online shopping is not only so much more convenient, there are simply so many more choices.

For example, for months I have lusted over the HBO Store which is a treasure chest of original merchandise from my beloved television series. What would I not do to get my hands on a ‘King of the North’ Hoodie, a Dragon Egg necklace or the Stark branded iPhone case. And I am just getting started on the wishlist!

Although I currently live in the age of the neanderthals and online shopping is a far-fetched dream, Baba’s recent visit to Calcutta gave me some brilliant ideas. I could order the stuff and Baba could bring it back with him.

So I went nuts with two new websites – ShirtMogul and FabAlley. The first is an absolutely awesome pop-culture t-shirt destination and the other being one of the most amazing websites one could visit, to buy clothes, shoes and most importantly accessories.

Here are my conquests!
