What:
Hey Bhagwan accessories by Play Clan available at www.theplayclan.com and Attic, Bir Sagar, 17th Road, Santacruz (W), Rs 85 onwards.

When:
You want the Elephant God on your side. Cheers, big ears!

What:
Little I Mirror Mints, available at Chemistry stores on Waterfield Road, Bandra and in INOX and Atria Malls, visit www.littlei.com, Rs 135.

Because it's time to un-stick yourself from tacky, foil-wrapped wads of gum. These gourmet breath mints are fun, stylish and skinny (they're made with Spenta), and come in a pretty box with a concealed mirror. Fresh!

When:
You want to look before you lip.
