Demure or Diva

Left: Kalki Koechlin at "tumbhi.com" press event
Right: Kangana Ranaut at Lawman jeans press event

Both, Kalki and Kangana, wore blue skinnies but with such different effects.

Kalki wore a red top - a color associated with lust and passion. But the style of the top, casual hair and flats give her a demure, sweet look.

Kangana wore a cream colored top - a color which symbolizes purity ( White is the color of purity but you get my drift, right?). And boy oh boy, does she look sassy or what!! She completely rocks those jeans..Work it, baby!!

David Beckham looks hot with his new beard and all, when he was taking his sons to watch Los Angeles Angels baseball game at the Anaheim stadium with friend Gordon Ramsay and his bodyguard.

Victoria Beckham didn't them, probably her previous affiliation with rival team the LA Dodgers may have been her reason for staying away, when she threw the first pitch at a game in 2007..

Bonnie Wright on September issue of ASOS Magazine (London version)

 
September issue of ASOS Magazine (London version, note that there are 2 other cover subjects for the NY and Paris versions of ASOS Magazine.) featuring 19 year-old actress Bonnie Wright (Harry Potter).  Bonnie is one of the “Rising Stars” and models new fashion trends from the A/W 2010 season.


ASOS Magazine – The Fashion Issue
Bonnie Wright stars on the ASOS London cover and inside
Minimal Mood – Refresh your wardrobe with simple cuts and grown-up pieces for instant luxury
“The Sorcerer’s Apprentice – Harry Potter is ending but one of its stars is set to cast her own spell”
Photographer: Enric Galceran
Full issue will be live on www.ASOS.com on September 3rd

On her passion for fashion: “Fashion and acting go hand-in-hand. Both are creating a performance. Fashion always has a theme and a story, references to culture and history, and so has acting. The product is different, but they’re still similar. I’ve always like something that is beyond what you would wear, that is more a like a piece of art.”
On Harry Potter bonding and saying goodbye: “I couldn’t have asked for a better experience than HP. All the people I’ve worked with have been so inspirational that I couldn’t not want to continue in teh film industry. I don’t necessarily want to stay in such a big-scale production, but maybe an independent film wher I can be more hands-on. There was a sense of belonging on HP, a sense of security, but now I have to decide what I want to do. The next step I take has to be the right decision.”

On her current relationship with Jamie Campbell-Bower: “To make life as rich as you can and to enjoy my professional life and my personal life. Jamie and I are incredibly happy together. Through each others’ work, through each others’ drive and passion, you can keep yourself going when stuff doesn’t seem to be coming your way, or you’re tired.”

Looks of the day

Who: Kalki Koechlin
Where: "Emotional Attyachar" screening

Simple, pretty and refreshing. I like everything about this look including the shoes that add a little attitude..Highwaisted, tailored pants are a big trend going into Fall. Are you planning to rock one? I am only 5ft so I will have to find the perfect top/cropped jacket to be able wear them..


Who: Kangana Ranaut
Where: At "Knockout Iftaar" party

Kangana does uptown chic in a Pistachio green anarkali dress. The dainty necklace and nude pumps work beautifully together with the outfit. She could have gone a little easy on the makeup..All in all, a nice look!

Peaches and cream

Who: Katrina Kaif
Where: Pantene promotional event

When she is not on the runway or attending big premieres, Katrina tends to wear a lot of cream outfits. She is perfectly coiffed (its an hair event!!) and immaculately turned out in a cute, girly dress. The dress is simple yet elegant...Not liking the shoes - would have preferred something more delicate and in white/black. And I would love to see her wear some bright colors..

Day and Night

Between Raveena's two appearances today, I like her in kurti with jeans. The black-on-black ensemble is a little boring. Never been a fan of her dressing style but always found her very beautiful.

When I look at Raveena, I will always remember how she stole Karishma's thunder in the "Sheher Ki ladki (City Girl)" song. Karishma was the star of the movie (Rakshak) but Raveena's special appearance song was a big, big hit.. and I think the highlight of the movie:-0.. Here is the song. Noticed that around 2:25, Raveena wears a wig similar to what Hale Berry wears on Vogue Sept cover and around 4:02, she sports a head scarf style that Olsens twins have been seen in!!

(Warning:: Song also features Sunil Shetty!! )

A Furry Tale

Photobucket

When you think shearling boots you probably automatically think Ugg but thanks to Chanel's crazy but very inspiring A/W10 collection fur lined boots have taken on a new meaning and I have been checking out Spartoo to see what they have on offer and I am very impressed there is certainly a style of fur lined boot for every taste and style. My fav have to be the Morgan ones with the fabulous over the top fur cuff, buckles and straps very me they also come in black and are very affordable at £79.00.
