The daily grind

Who: Kareena Kapoor
Where: Launch of Great Indian wedding carnival

Kareena razzles and dazzles at the launch of the Great Indian wedding carnival. The orange/pink saree is a little OTT but considering the event, she might be under-dressed:P Hate her glossy hair!

Who: Neha Dhupia, Esha Koppikar, Raageshwari

Never thought this day would come where Esha would be better dressed than Neha! Her outfit is simple but any day better than what Neha and Raageshwari wore.

Who: Bhavna Pandey
Where: Johnnie Walker bash

Bhavna looks polished and very ladylike in neutral tones. I like the way she styled it with gold accessories - it adds glamor without being overwhelming.

Celebs at Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2011

Who: Kareena Kapoor

Having see Manish Malhotra's collection at the fashion week, I think Kareena could have chosen a more "visually, stunning" piece to wear. This one is nice but not really breathtaking. She does a have lovely back!

Who: Shamita Shetty

Love the fusion of east and west - the Banarsi border on a modern silhouette. The color is also very eye pleasing and I think I have started liking Shamita more than Shilpa on the red carpet. Both sisters still need to fix their accessorizing.

Who: Sonali Bendre

The color block dress with two pastel colors is just divine. A touch of embellishments on the neckline gives it a sophisticated touch. The black/white outfit is also nice but I didnt like the bling-y belt.

Who: Sophie Choudry

Sophie gets it right on both occasions sticking to simple, sexy dresses. I heart her black/gold shoes in the second pic. I Want!

Who:Jacqueline Fernadez, Narmaada Ahuja

Both, Jacqueline and Narmaada, wore outfits by Masaba at the presentation of her collection at Lakme Fashion week, 2011.
Which one did you like better? hmm, I will go with Narmaada's outfit becoz the addition of dupatta/scarf makes her outfit look more elegant.

Who: Monica Dogra, Mansi Scott

Both dresses are lovely but Mansi spoils her outfit with really bad choice of shoes and bag.

Weekend Roundup

Who: Kareena Kapoor
Where:Cosmopolitan awards 2011

Love the nude-pink color but not sure about the dress. This needs a better fitting at the waist, no? I dont see any curves..I am also not a big fan of pockets on evening gowns (Jeans? yes pockets. Gowns with pockets? Never good) and I think this outfit would have looked better if it was knee length.

Who: Aishwarya Rai
Where: Cosmopolitan awards, Lavasa Womens' car rally awards

The first outfit could have worked if the top and bottom were of the same shade - did Aishwarya dress in the dark?!
She fares much better in the second outfit - its soft, chic and so luxe looking!

Who: Malaika Arora Khan
Where: Cosmopolitan awards 2011, Jhalak, Dikhla Ja sets

Girlfriend kills in both outfits! The first is a typical Malaika - short and tight with a "painted on" effect. The second may have room to breathe but makes it up with sensuous draping. Isn't the color gorgeous? With Malaika, if an outfit doesn't scream "sex", its not worth wearing:-)

Who: Neelam, Simone Singh
Where: Cosmopolitan awareds 2011

Haven't met a sequins dress that I didn't like! Both are perfect for a night out clubbing!

Who: Sarah Jane, Queenie Dhody, Guest
Where: Cosmopolitan awards 2011

The pink/orange dresses are punchy and bright and look so casual-chic. I love the blue color too but am so done with bandage dresses.

Who: Avantika and Imran Khan
Where: Cosmopolitan awards 2011

Can I have your dress and your man?

Airport Style - Black leggings

Who: Kareena Kapoor, Hilary Duff, Lauren Conrad

Who: Nicole Ritchie, Jessica Simpson, Kate Beckinsale

Who: Kim Kardashian, Kate Beckinsale, Clemence Posey

I know what I am wearing on my next flight! Don't they all look so glam?!?

Red hot

Who: Kareena Kapoor
Where: Unveiling of Stardust issue

Stunning. Kareena is absolutely slamming in this sari-inspired gown! The draping is just divine and the dress accentuates her drool-worthy curves. When you want to make a statement you cant go wrong in red!

Events: Imran Khan's wedding reception

Who: Kiran Rao, Ursual from The little mermaid

Is it just me or does anyone else see the resemblance between Kiran's skirt and Ursula's tentacles? I always figured Kiran was an alien:-) Her dressing sense is out of this world (geddit, geddit??)

Who: Sonakshi Sinha, Katrina Kaif, Vidya Balan

Sonakshi and Katrina are elegant in their incredibly delicate anarkalis. I really like the color contrast of the deep red bodice in the Tarun Tahiliani outfit that Katrina is wearing.
Vidya wore a Sabyasachi anarkali to the event. No the anarkali and her crimped hair.

Who: Twinkle Khanna, Preity Zinta, Suzanne Khan

Twinkle is a knockout in her bright pink dress. Not only is the color gorgeous but I also like the cut of her beautifully tailored outfit. Perfectly paired with brown peep-toes and gold layered necklace.
Preity - Looking pretty as always!!
I am surprised to see Suzanne in a Ritu Kumar which has been previously seen on Neha Dhupia as well as on Diana Haydon. Its a pretty outfit but I can only see it so many times:-)

Who: Madhuri, Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra

I like Madhuri's color combination. Not sure about her clutch or shoes..
Deepika always looks good when she is not in a bridesmaid dress.
The design and embroidery of Priyanka's outfit give it a very tacky effect. I also feel this kind of long top only looks good in anarkali style.

Who: Gauri Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Rani Mukherjee, Genelia D'souza

Gauri in an outfit that is not OTT and harsh orange in color. How did this happen?
Kareena sparkles and shines in a net saree with glittering sequins. The sequins are really the star of this outfit elevating a basic black saree. It also helps that gorgeous Kareena is wearing it..
Rani wore a Sabyasachi saree. Not a big fan of this mustard yellow color.
Genelia wore a great color but she looks under-dressed for the event.

Who: Ameesha Patel, Anushka Sharma

What a surprise - Ameesha in a outfit that is not attention-seeking!! I hope she keeps it up.
Anushka wore a short grey dress with sequins and kept her makeup and accessories minimal. The dress, though not a knockout, is pretty and flattering. She paired the dress with smart black shoes.

Who do you think was the best dressed at the event?

Weekend Round - The beautiful and the bewildering

Who: Sonam Kapoor
Where: Manish Malhotra Chivas show

Pirates of the Caribbean or woman whose shoes we could live in?
Wow, she has big feet, and the shoes make the problem worse!
The whole look has a deja-vu feeling since Sonam tends to wear a lot of these high-waisted pants and did I mention I could live in her shoes with my 6 kids, 3 dogs and 1 cat and still have room to spare!!

Who: Sameera Reddy, Urmila Matondakar
Where: Manish Malhotra Chivas show

Love both the dresses - have a very boho-chic vibe.
A big kick in the ass to Sameera for wearing such ugly shoes - what did her feet do to deserve this!!
Urmila would have fared better with a longer hemline.

Who: Kareena Kapoor, Chitrangada Singh
Where: Book launch, "Yeh Jo hai Zindagi" promos

Both, Kareena and Chitrangada, did the blazer and jeans combo. Kareena went for a semi-formal look pairing her jeans and graffiti t-shirt with a tuxedo blazer. She also went for a black/brown combination which always gets my attention.
Chitrangada went for a causal look with corduroy jacket and some killer heels and hair. Both look good.

Who:Lara Dutta
Where: At an engagement party

Wow, that saree is so striking and Lara does it full justice. She looks stunning!

Who: Bipasha Basu
Where: Maxim cover launch

If Bipasha has paid more than $29.99 for that dress she is wearing, she got ripped off. That dress is done in by its hemline - its really ugly. And the yuck shoes. Double Fail!!

Who: Neha Dhupia
Where: Manish Malhotra Chivas show

I like the color combination and the belt ties the whole look together. I am a little iffy on the width of the pant - maybe a tighter fit at the thighs and then gently flaring?!?

Who: Celina Jaitely, Shazahn Padamsee
Where: Manish Malhotra chivas show, CID gallantry awards

Celina - The dress is OTT but its a fashion show so I will let it pass.

Shazahn - I would rather die than wear this in public!!
Is she dressed "in character"? I cant seem to think of any other explanation for this atrocious dress she inflicted on us!

Would you rather....?

Nothing interesting is happening in Tinseltown, so lets play another round of "Would you rather..."

Would you rather...

.. go on a double date with Abhi-Aish or Saif-Kareena?

.. be a golden girl or shining Star on the red carpet?

.. enjoy a home-cooked or take-out meal?

.. make a statement in a leather outfit or go chic in lace?

... forgo jewelry or makeup for 30 days?

... invest in Christian Dior Lady bag or the classic Chanel 2.55 bag?

My choices
1) Abhi-Aish - finally ask her why she giggles so much in all her interviews?
2) Golden girl
3) Home-cooked meal
4) Even though I love Jolie, its Lace for me!!
5) I will forgo jewelry - I cant live without my eyeliner!!
5) Chanel 2.55 bag
