Tucked within the lush, sun-dappled grounds of Escape, the iconic lifestyle destination envisioned by designer Ritu Beri, comes a new chapter in Goan hospitality: Escape with Miguel's. For the first time, the refined, easy charm of Miguel's from Fontainhas finds a new home in Socorro, North Goa.
Escape with Miguel's is a garden bistro and cocktail bar that brings together culture, cuisine, and character in a truly one-of-a-kind setting. This is not a replica of the original Miguel's - but an entirely new food and cocktail experience, guided by the same warmth, creativity, and soul that defines Miguel's brand, claimed a release.

Senthera, a new body care brand, launches in India their Make Love collection

The first scent that Margarita Kuritsyna remembers putting on at her childhood home in Ukraine, is a tropical scent called Pacific Paradise. The bottle, pink and blue in colour, often brought with it a fruity and fun smell. 'The box had this young woman amidst palm trees. It was likely my mother's perfume that I kept using for a while,' she says. Many years since, her tryst with the world of fragrance and perfume deepened. She gravitated to scents that often had notes of vanilla and always ended up making heads turn at events she would go to. 'I'd also ask people what they wore too,' she says. From her years of growing up in Ukraine, Margarita set up a life in India's Gurugram. It was soon after that the quest for finding the perfect scent that also provided wholesome nourishment began. The idea for Senthera, her brand, was hence born in 2023 and launched in July this year. The first line, Make Love, wrapped in lush and pretty pink packaging, consists of a shower gel with 10 oils, exfoliating body scrub and body cream with collagen. Upon opening the bottles, one immediately picks up on rose, lychee and vanilla. It is subtle yet it persists in the air, many hours after its first use. Of the three products, a shower gel for a lightening quick bath, an exfoliant for a deeper cleanse and the collagen body cream for hydrated skin, the cream remains a winner. Its scent, full of notes that the Indian palate is accustomed to, is one that is delicate yet intense. Although Margarita did not study perfumery and was in the events and management space, she pivoted towards wellness early in her life. 'I did many different things after university but I remember entering the world of body care when my mother handed me a gift of body cream and shower gel. It smelt great but it didn't do much for my body. I was always attracted to the wellness industry and the passion for fragrance lingered. That is why I created my own brand,' she says. At a wellness retreat for the launch of Senthera in Goa's Brij Parasio amidst massages and gourmet meals, Margarita says that people often take care of their face with several active ingredients but do not pay the same attention to their body. 'It is why our ingredient list included peptides, collagen and several other nourishing ingredients,' she says. As someone who always hopped in and out of showers quickly, Margarita says that it is essential to take time twice a week to exfoliate. It is why her scrub continues to leave behind all the natural oils that the body produces. The product is free of harsh chemicals, without silicone and paraben and is vegan. 'I do not like that squeaky clean, no oil feeling of the skin that some products create. It makes the skin extremely dry. We are careful about ensuring that the bathing ritual, on most days, is quick, yet intimate,' she says, explaining an ideal bathing ritual at the Goan resort where massages, journaling and tarot readings are curated for the launch. It is why the line is eponymously named Make Love. Margarita wants people to remember the sweet smell of falling in love or developing a small crush. Memories have scent, she says. Margarita says that it has taken relentless trials and many iterations of rose, lychee and vanilla to get here. It took two years for the final sample to develop. Only after this did she choose to let her family and friends take a whiff. 'I don't think I have fully grasped that something I have made is now out in the world. It is wonderful to see and take in,' she says. The aim is to ensure that Senthera hits shelves of stores and is available on e-commerce platforms across India. 'We will be launching new lines and shipping abroad soon,' she says. For now, she wants to ensure that everyone who gets a whiff of Senthera is reminded of the Goan monsoon: where one sips on feni between cloud bursts, as the smell of rain lingers in the air. All that is left to do is a long soak in hot water. Senthera's Make Love range starts at ₹1,499 and is available on (The author was at the event in Goa on invitation of the brand.)

Why Accessories Are the Real Stars Of Your Festive And Wedding Looks In 2025

Last Updated: Accessories aren't just add-ons, they're the real showstoppers of any festive or wedding look. By now, we all know the feeling. You've put together the perfect outfit, be it a dreamy blue lehenga or your go-to office kurti and yet, something feels… off. The fit's great, the makeup's on point, the hair's styled, but the overall look lacks that finishing touch. That oomph. And more often than not, the answer lies in one thing: accessories. The Power of Statement Styling 'Accessories are the oomph factor of an outfit," says Jhanvi Bhatia, a self-confessed lover of statement fashion. 'While a dainty piece of jewellery can blend into your look, only a bold, standout piece can actually elevate it." Whether you're heading to a wedding, sangeet, office Diwali party, or just brunch with the girls, Jhanvi believes accessories can change the narrative of your outfit completely. Think Deepika Padukone's oversized chandbalis paired with a simple kurta set, or Sonam Kapoor's unforgettable braid jewellery and bun cage from her wedding look. 'Those are not just accessories," Jhanvi adds, 'they're power moves. They tell a story. They make a fashion statement that people remember." And she's got a point. The 2025 accessory trends are all about storytelling and impact from nostalgia-tinged glam to maximalist moves rooted in tradition. Hair, Heirloom, and Heritage For Farheen, the fusion of bold earrings and soft hair accessories is what gives an outfit its feminine depth. 'It instantly elevates even the simplest outfit. That's the power of styling with intention," she says. 5 Statement Accessory Trends to Bookmark for Wedding & Festive Season 2025 Bhatia lays out her must-haves for anyone wanting to channel their inner main character this festive season: 1. Hair Accessories: 'Bun cages, braid jewellery, parandas—they're SO in right now!" says Jhanvi. Whether you're going for quirky or classy, the right hair adornment can take your hairstyle game from 7 to a solid 10. 2. Statement Bags: Think beyond the clutch. 'From parrot-shaped potlis in Torani's latest collection to glittery cocktail bags, your arm candy should be as loud as your lehenga," Jhanvi suggests. And yes, personalization is very much a thing in 2025! 3. Kaan Chains & Oversized Earrings: Whether it's a traditional jhumka or a massive chandbali, ears are having a moment. 'They're your wedding season starter pack," she adds. Pair it with a Sahara chain for that extra drama, à la Farheen's signature style. 4. Bold Bangles & Stacks: Chunky bangles are back, and not just for Indian wear. 'This Y2K trend has returned with a vengeance," says Jhanvi. Stack them up with sarees, gowns, or even Indo-western fits for instant glam. 5. Capes & Heirloom Dupattas: Capes aren't just for superheroes—they're for show-stoppers. 'Embroidered capes or heavy mirror-work dupattas draped in unique ways can be THE statement piece of your look," Jhanvi notes. 'Trust me, the right dupatta can steal the show." Accessories Are Not Extras—They're Essentials If there's one fashion lesson that's been repeated season after season, it's this: accessories aren't just add-ons. They're the conversation starters. The memory makers. The detail that separates a 'nice look' from an unforgettable one. So as the wedding invites stack up and the festive season inches closer, consider this your sign to experiment. Layer, stack, drape, and pin your way to a style that's uniquely you. As Jhanvi cheekily signs off, 'I have way more to add to this list—only if you follow me and up your wedding and personal styling game in 2025!" 😉 view comments Location : New Delhi, India, India First Published: July 27, 2025, 07:26 IST News lifestyle Why Accessories Are the Real Stars Of Your Festive And Wedding Looks In 2025 Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
