Fab India

I was recently at the Fab India store in Anna nagar which sells clothing for women, men and kids and they also sell Organic food stuff apart from home furnishings... It's one of a kind store in Chennai and its a never like before feeling when your there... These people out there love their cotton and understand India..

All the clothing comes in cotton and silk , when you think of ethnic indian clothing with comfort think Fab India .. There sure is something for everyone .. This store was initially started to support the wevers in rural parts of India earn their living and now its come into the list of one of the Fashion stores in the country .. Oops, no ..its a world wide brand.. They have stores all across the globe..

I was there with my mom and grand mom last weekend to pick a few sarees for them and I ended up with a kurta for me along with few organic food stuffs as well.. Their black cherry jam is jus' irresistable..

All their stuffs are very affordable quality products.. They last long as well... This is not my first visit here, had been there already its the quality of their clothes and food stuff which took me back there..

This is their website : http://www.fabindia.com/

With their love for the country , fabrics and people they have gone a step further and their strategies and the way they have evolved to what they are now have took them into the case studies of Harvard .. Do i need to say more..

P.S: Their website doesnot have many collections compared to their stores.. If, your in any of the cities across the world where their stores are located ..Do take a visit .. Have fun shopping !

Organic food

Organically grown food has gained popularity for quite sometime for all good reasons .. From the health point of view its so much more safer and healthier consuming organic food .
