Home Tour: Simran’s Rented Apartment in Bengaluru

Simran Dhaliwal is a Bengaluru-based blogger, and today I bring you a tour of her beautifully done-up rented home. There’s lots to learn from Simran’s refined, simplistic style, and I am personally quite thrilled that her color palette is sooo similar to mine – especially the neutral colored fabric on a contemporary Indian sofa and orange curtains from Fabindia… πŸ™‚ .

So go on, walk through her apartment and absorb the colors, ambiance and decor as she gives you a guided tour of her beautifully done-up home!

The collection of pictures on the left wall is
another one of my favorites. I like naturally shot portraits
rather than studio ones.
