Do we really need a special day to celebrate womanhood? This is a stirring question we often see on social media posts around this time of the year.
Femininity does not need a specific date to be celebrated as each one of us strive to create wonders on the personal and professional front every day. However, we cannot deny how females endure the greatest impacts of gender inequality, and social imbalance. Even though we are making progress with each passing day to create an equal tomorrow and have come a long way doing so, March 8 is especially dedicated to recognise the progress women have made in every field and their achievements and contributions.
This year, pamper the ladies in your life or yourself with more than just a pat on your back. We have picked a few ways in which you could do so:
The Cinderella Hour
It is a dream for every woman to own a classy Jimmy Choo pair. This month, the luxury house is taking it to the next level with pops of colour playing it along with the nudes. There’s a bag and a pair of heels to suit each of your fashion moods. The exclusive collection offers a wide range of neutral satchels, heels and metallic bon-bon bags.

The scent of a woman
We believe an attire is incomplete without a signature scent that speaks for you. Keep a lingering impression of you with ITC’s latest introduction- Engage L’Amante Click & Brush Perfume. The perfume doubles up as a classy accessory with its sleek, gold exterior. Inspired by Tahiti, it is reminiscent of white driftwood by the shore and adds freshness to your look.
