    While dressing up in the last one year has been a rare activity, we mostly did it to cheer ourselves up. Looking back, everyone was comfortable even in their most boring PJs. Dressing-up on top became a norm with online meetings.

    Even now, when the world is shifting at an unprecedented pace, we aren’t sure what might happen. And it may feel early, but chances are you might want to look dapper in the heat of summer towards June. 
    What screams a perfect summer outfit? A short-sleeve printed shirt. Offering versatility to styling it differently for men, we predict that it is going to be a 2021 favourite.
    Check out these 5 reasons why! 
    1. Lounge In StyleGive your worn-out tees some rest and opt for a fresh pair of the short-sleeve printed shirt. For men who just want comfort, this is the new baggy T-shirt.
    If you love lounging, why not lounge in style?
    Paired with shorts and shades, it's a laidback look that's harder to get wrong than it is right. Add in a neat pair of sunglasses for an outdoor look.

    2. Half Dressing UpAs mentioned earlier, Zoom made us do it. We started wearing our dressier options on the top while still being in PJs or boxers down below.
    For men who are still working from home, a short-sleeve shirt is a perfect choice to attend those untimely meetings that your bosses just need to schedule when you plan to log off.

    3. Bed To WorkA short-sleeve shirt, so comfy to sleep in is also great when you just don’t feel like dressing up. Opt for a cotton piece that can pass the casual Friday dressing norms. Change into your favourite pair of denim and you are good to go.
    Another way of styling a striped shirt is to layer it as outerwear over a solid white tee. Finish the look by adding beige chinos or khakis.

    4. Road Trip All The WayHaven’t you watched Dil Chahta hai? A short-sleeve shirt was and will always be the most sartorial choice for a road trip with your friends. 
    Dress it up chinos or dress it down with khakis, the key is to accessorise well. Add in a fedora, some sunglasses and a pair of cool kicks to finish your look in style.

    5. Layer SlayerWhen wearing a printed short-sleeve shirt, you need to dip your toe into the layer game at least once. Whether it is done over a shirt or under a lightweight jacket, it is a look to be looking out for.
    Make sure to keep your shirt being the statement piece of your outfit and keep the rest of the attire simple and sweet.

    Final Thoughts Perfect for coffee dates, brunches and park meetups, a short-sleeve printed shirt will serve you well. Paired with shorts and shades, it's a laidback look that's harder to get wrong than it is right.
    Wear it the way you like it.

    With Holi just around the corner, you might be tempted to get some dry and wet Holi colours from the market.

    Now, they are a cheap option, but artificial colours are very nasty. First of all, they don’t come off that easy and harm your skin a lot. They dry your skin out, mess up your hair and scalp, and can cause severe reactions if you have sensitive skin.

    Secondly, they are very harmful to the environment, especially the ones that are laced with chemicals to make some odd colours like silver. Not to mention just how wasteful wet colours can be.

    But does that mean we don’t play with colours at least with our family and very close friends (I mean, given the Covid situation, what other options do we have)? Heck no!

    How about we go for some better and more skin and eco-friendly options, instead? Why not make your own colours, using some cool and easy DIY methods?

    Here’s how you can DIY 6 basic colours at home using natural ingredients, all by yourself.

    1. Making Violet © iStock
    Get some wild-growing morning glory flowers (just the petals) and some talcum powder, and blitz them in a mixer grinder. The more morning glory you put into the mix, the darker the shade will be. The best thing about this is that it comes off very easily, and is easy to clean up.

    2. Making Red © iStock
    If you can get dry red sandalwood, there’s nothing like it. Otherwise, dry up a whole lot of hibiscus and just crush it up using a mixer grinder. In case you’re looking to make a large batch, grind it with rice flour or ground flour. The good thing about going for red is that both red sandalwood and hibiscus extract are great for the skin.

    3. Making Blue © iStock
    There are actually a number of ways you can make blue. You can use blue hibiscus flowers, or jacaranda flowers, mixed with rice flour or ground flour. If you see blackberries and blueberries growing around you, you can use that as well, although, do keep in mind that colours extracted from berries do stain.

    4. Making Green © iStock
    Like, blue, there are a ton of options to make the colour green. The most obvious one is, of course, using henna. Avoid the ones that come with amla as they’re meant to dye hair. Alternatively, you can use green wheat leaves, or dried Gulmohar leaves, mixed with ground flour to make the colour green.

    5. Making Magenta © iStock
    This one will be a wet colour. Peel and slice about 250 grams of beetroot and boil it in about 5 litres of water. Once the water starts bubbling, take it off the heat, and let it cool overnight. Make as many 5 litre-batches as you would want to, but do keep in mind, this one is a bit wasteful.

    5. Making Yellow © iStock
    Now, don’t go about throwing store-bought turmeric powder and say that it’s yellow. You can make some good dry colours using raw turmeric root and ground flour. Flowers like marigold, and amaltas, or babool pods can also be used to make the colour. Just let them dry up and then crush and mix with talcum powder or gram flour. Again, the combination of turmeric and ground flour is really great for the skin.

    The Bottomline...
    Using dry colours that are homemade using natural ingredients is the best thing that one can do for one’s skin. Using certain colours and certain ingredients not only saves your skin from the onslaught of chemical imbalances and irritations but actually prove to be beneficial for it.

    The Chennai Super Kings continues to be the second-most successful franchise in the history of the Indian Premier League with three titles under their belt and the record of making it to the playoffs every single year except 2020.
    Team leader Mahendra Singh Dhoni is arguably the most famous player as far as his fan-following during the T20 tournament is concerned and ever since announcing his retirement back in August 2020, this would be the first time that ‘Captain Cool’ will play in Indian pitches.

    A prestigious record, a lovable captain, and a roster known for its successful past also make the franchise the second-most wealthy in the league as well.
    Now, ahead of the 14th edition of the IPL, the Chennai team decided to make a bold move while coming up with a new jersey design for its players and added camouflage pads on their shoulders as a tribute to the Indian Armed Forces.

    “It has been on our mind for some time now to find ways to raise awareness about the significant and selfless role of the armed forces. The camouflage is an appreciation of their service,” CSK CEO KS Viswanathan said at the time of launching the team jersey.
    However, even though the suggested idea behind making such a peculiar alteration to the team kits sounds noble and honest, the new jerseys received some mixed reactions.
    There were some who absolutely loved CSK’s tribute to the armed forces:
    Is that a camouflage on the shoulders??? If it's so wow you CSK is in love with Thala Dhoni so much... Dhoni lovers know how much he loves Camouflage... Superb... We CSKIANS don't believe in luck we Believe in the team and Thala. 🥰🥰🥰

    Thank you @ChennaiIPL and @msdhoni for featuring camouflage as an appreciation for the true heroes of country🇮🇳 #MSDhoni #IPL2021 #Yellove #WhistlePodu #CSK @CSKFansOfficial

    — Sauhard Pandey (@pandey_sauhard) March 24, 2021 However, not everyone is too happy to see this:
    Why is a camouflage patch needed on a privately owned cricket franchisee's jersey?
    — Chini (@ChiniZyaada) March 24, 2021Using Army to clear their corrupt image .
    — aivy (@SpiderPant) March 24, 2021The most corrupted team, which promotes fixing, bullying, cheating.. a team for which rapists played shouldn't be allowed to use Army to clean image. It's a disrespect to Indian army.

    — Shrikant (@shrikantd31) March 24, 2021During the 2019 ICC World Cup tournament, Dhoni was seen wearing the Para Special Forces' 'Balidaan' Insignia on his wicket-keeping gloves during their first match of the tournament with a win against South Africa.
    This man shows his love for the nation and army.

    — Sachin Joraviya (@SachinJoraviya) June 5, 2019
    However, the International Cricket Council (ICC) had ordered BCCI to remove the symbol from Dhoni’s gloves as “ICC equipment and clothing regulations do not permit the display of messages that relate to political, religious or racial activities or causes during an international match.”
    Since the IPL does not fall under the ambit of the ICC and is a product of the Indian cricket board itself, ICC will have no control over such issues and CSK will be able to keep this new jersey look intact, provided the BCCI remains fine with it.
