STREET SHOPPING

Who doesn’t like shopping? I mean doesn’t the idea of spending money on clothes and accessories sounds exciting? Delhi has a number of malls to offer a wide range of clothing, footwear and makeup for girls. While counting the most popular malls of Delhi, Select Citywalk is on top, showcasing multiple brands and variants. Although roaming around in Shopping malls and trying a dozen things out before deciding what to buy is interesting, street shopping has its own perks. Not only does it save a lot of money, it makes shopping really interesting as you get to bargain with the sellers and the two-way convincing process is quite funny.

If you’re a college goer and you literally plan the expenditure of your pocket money, there are a number of places to shop in delhi wherein you can get clothes and bags at really reasonable prices. Here, let’s take a look.

•    Janpath: Situated near the Connaught Place metro station, Janpath has a number of small local stalls. You can find latest fashion goods all decorated pompously in attractive colors that just cannot be missed.

•    Dilli Haat: It is more like a traditional market with small roof cottages and gives the feel of a village. The market showcases handicrafts, traditional kurtis for women, traditional earrings and wooden showpieces.

•    Chandni Chowk: Situated from hundreds of years, this place has narrow valleys containing a number of small congested shops. Although the shops are small, they contain millions of things. Ladies often come to this place for wedding shopping of lehengas and suits.

•    Sarojini Nagar: This I believe is the cheapest place possible as it sells really cheap designer materials- clothes and accessories.

•    Lajpat Nagar: This market, although quite hectic, gives an interesting glimpse of Indian culture.  It is abuzz with middle class Indian shoppers for its famous Indian kurti tops and Salwar Kameez.

And don’t worry, you don’t mandatorily have to be a college goer to go shopping at these interesting markets. They welcome all with open arms.

One Weekend in South Delhi

I like catching entertainment shows and I love to shop! Going shopping while also being able to catch a live gig at a cafe later would be my idea of a perfect weekend break. Now there may be many definitions for entertainment, but for me, it’s all about music! Weekend entertainment places in South Delhi may be far too many to list down, but whenever I’m faced with the ordeal of going for hunting down Delhi’s best shoes available for sale in the market or catching a lively gig at a bar, I know exactly where to go to get the best of both worlds.

Select Citywalk is one huge and elegant mall. Its interiors are pretty refreshing and it completely lifts your mood once you enter through its welcoming doors. It features shops where you can find some of Delhi’s best shoes, Aldo, Footkraft and Crocs being my personal favourites. I would give Select full points for its excellent footwear stores as it has made my thirst for shoes so much easier to quench with its exceptional shoe shops.

It’s also undoubtedly the best entertainment place in Saket. The Hard Rock Café situated within the premises of the mall comes as a delightful affair for music junkies like me. I’ve got a lot of musician friends who go around playing in the cafes of South Delhi while I feel Select is a spot that can accommodate my love for shopping, as well as my musical inclination. Hard Rock Cafe would definitely feature in my list of the best entertainment places in Saket. It’s some good music they play out there. Their burgers are awesome too, if you don’t already know that. They have an original taste and are extremely crispy and juicy!

A weekend full of shopping and good music! That’s some break, right?
