A post of few words...

Who: Sarah Jane Dias
Where: Elle breast cancer carnival

Do you see what I see? A dress with an arrow pointing to her coochie? Hon, if he needs direction, then you need to rethink:-)

Who: Lisa Haydon
Where: Elle breast cancer carnival

I know the invite said "carnival" but its not on the beach!!Flip-flops? Really, Lisa? REALLY? How lazy can you be?

Who: Rhea Kapoor
Where: Elle breast cancer carnival

The outfit is OK, nothing special, but oh those shoes are hideous! Did your sister tell you these are "in"? Ha, ha, You just got punk'd!!

Who: Amrita Puri, Tisca Chopra
Where: Elle breast cancer carnival

We end today's roundup of really bad outfits with a maternity dress and a grandma's castoffs!

Magazine Covers - April 2011

Verve - Anushka Sharma
Elle - Lisa Haydon

My issue with both the covers is the model faces. Anushka is barely recognizable - I understand using photoshop to make models look flawless or thin but to make Anushka not look like herself is self-defeating - isnt her face the selling point?
I love the color composition of Elle - very impactful and spring-y but Lisa's makeup is so horrid! Why?

Spotted around town

Who: Bipasha Basu
Where: Tommy Hilfiger shoe launch

Havent seen Bipasha in ages!! She looks youthful and fresh in a strapless, flowy floral dress. She smartly balanced the multi-hued combo with a black belt, clutch and tan shoes. She kept her makeup light and best of all, she has changed her hairstyle!

Who: Kangana Ranaut
Where: "Game" movie launch

Love the colors and print of this dress. It does look like an old wallpaper but I like. And the best part is her shoes. Brilliant!! I think she put them on by fluke- she cant be that fashion savvy. The only bad part is the fit of the dress - its so shapeless:( No wonder she is grumpy.

Who: Shraddha Kapoor, Sarah Jane Dias
Where: Lakme fantasy collection launch, "Game" movie launch

Both, Shraddha and Sarah, wore my current favorite shade of pink - a dull, dusty pink. Of the two, I like Sarah's outfit better. Shraddha's outfit looks like lingerie. The baby doll style combined with gauzy fabric reminds of Victoria's Secret stuff.

Who: Lisa Haydon
Where: Lakme fantasy collection launch

The purple lining on Lisa's jacket is so quirky, no? It adds some jazz to a boring blazer-skirt combo. She wore an asymmetrical top underneath which again is very unexpected. Yay to Lisa's interpretation of the traditional suit.

Who: Ira Dubey, Surily Goel
Where: At her store launch, Tommy Hilfiger shoe launch

Ira - She is too thin. Clothes just hang on her. Eat! Carbs love you. Love them back!

Surily - Isn't her clutch adorable? Goes so well with grey dress.

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?

Looks of the day

Who: Shriya Saran
Where: Sunidhi Chauhan dinner party

I like! Adding the belt was a smart move since it breaks up the pattern and also gives definition. Hair and makeup is perfect.

Who: Lisa Haydon, Shazahn Padamsee
Where:Arctic Vodka Launch

Thats an interesting take on LBD. I think its pretty sexy and wish she had gone for red lips and less boring shoes.

I didnt like Shazahn's dress when she wore it earlier and I dont like it now.

Who: Sophie Choudry, Madhoo
Where: Arctic Vodka launch

Sophie - Nothing earth-shattering - safe and boring.
Looks like Madhoo was out running errands and just walked into the event. The outfit is cute but way too causal for a night event.

I want..

Who: Lisa Haydon
Where: HDIL invitation Cup press conference

.. a blue sequins dress to sizzle in. Neck down, Lisa is fabulous but her hair and makeup looks a little dull, no?

Who: Amrita Arora, Shazahn Padamsee
Where: Suzanne Khan Charcoal project, Stardust party

..nothing from Amrita's closet (would anyone?) except her weight loss diary!

..Shazahn's leopard print clutch. Leopard print has never been hotter and this clutch is so versatile. It adds the right amount of sexy to a black dress and can also be paired with your favorite jeans for a touch of vintage glamor.

Who: Narmaada Ahuja, Madhoo, Krisha Lulla
Where: Neeta Lulla collection preview for Aza

.. a Hermes Birkin, Parda and Fendi Spy bag to add to my bag collection.

Seriously, did you see the size of Narmaada's Birkin? That is one plus-sized bag!

Which designer outfit did you like best?

Events: Burberry bash - Part 1

Who: Sushmita Sen, Preity Zinta

Sushmita wore a DKNY jersey dress to the event and Preity went with a Burberry military jacket that she paired with a LBD and Chanel bag. Preity looks polished and chic in that outfit. Have I told you how much I adore her??
I know you guys heart Sush but can I dare to say she looks a little bland..

Who: Malaika Arora Khan, Nandita Mahtani, Natasha Poonawala

Nandita scores in her sequins and leather one-shoulder dress. I love the draping and the mix of these two contrasting fabrics.
Natasha wore a colorblock Herver Leger bandage dress with Bottega Veneta clutch - two of the most commonly owned items in Bollywood today:-)
Malaika's outfit is also divine but she got her accessories wrong. I can live with the cage booties but the golden jeweled clutch is too much of a clash...

Who: Ayesha Takia Azmi, Laila Khan, Lisa Haydon

Loving Ayesha's bold red lips!! She looks cute in her ruffle top and skinnies.
Laila teamed a black corset with satin pants and some bold jewelery. Not sure why everyone is into orange hair nowadays? Ditch the tacky purse and we are talking..
Ignore Lisa's awkward pose. I have new respect for her - She scored a Burberry Porsum dress for the event!!

Events: GQ awards 2010

Who: Priyanka Chopra

Looks like Priyanka is reading our blog becoz this time around she changed her hairstyle and makeup!! I do like her curly hair but I am not sure if the smoky eyes work on her. And even though she wore a gold/beige floor length gown, she could not resist showing off her legs:-) Old habits die hard...

Priyanka won the GQ woman of the year award, 2010. And all it took was wearing minis all year around:-)

Abhishek and Aishwarya :

1) look perfect, sigh...
2) bore me to death.

Abhishek won Ultimate GQ Man award, 2010 - If anyone can figure out what "ultimate man" means, dolet me know.. Aish won GQ Excellence Awards 2010 - No comments...

Who: Abhay Deol ( I refuse to acknowledge his GF)

Abhay Deol has a girl friend!! And that also someone this cute!! How come no one told me?? Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!sob!!

Left: Mehr Jessia, Center: Lisa Haydon, Right: Ayesha Thapar

Thru my tears, I see that Mehr continues with her no-makeup look and wore a cute Chanel dress to the event.
Lisa went for a sheer maxi dress accessorized with a gold clutch.
And Ayesha rocked a sequins LBD. All of them made sure that their best feature - toned, beautiful legs - was amply highlighted.

Left: Aamir Khan, Center: Rahul Khanna, Right: Arjun Ramphal

Perfect eye candy to start the week!! All three look handsome and delicious in their black power suits..I think my heart is startin to beat again;-)

GQ Most Stylish Man Award, 2010: Arjun Ramphal
Cinematic Icon Award, 2010 : Aamir Khan

Magazine Covers - Aug 2010

Elle: Sonam Kapoor
Marie Claire: Shruti Hassan
Grazia , Harper's Bazaar: Kangana Ranaut
Bunker: Mallika Sherawat
FHM: Lisa Haydon

Love Elle cover - its rare to see such close-up face shots on fashion magazine covers. This should be the last of Sonam's covers until she has another movie to promote. Aisha promotions has to be one of the biggest media blitz we have seen in recent years:-)

Kangana was busy this month with two magazine covers!! I like the Grazia cover - she looks fierce on both but her hair/makeup/styling is better on the Grazia one.

Another close-up, this time of Mallika for the Bunker magazine. She is promoting her next movie - Hisss, where she plays a snake-woman. Thats why the whole makeup has a reptile feel to it. Kudos to the photographer since Mallika looks stunning and not her usual slutty self.

FHM was ok and I like Shruti's attire on Marie Claire.

Vogue, India decided to go with Cameron Diaz for the Aug cover. Is it just me who finds it insulting that Vogue could find anyone in our Bollywood suitable for the cover? I am sure Kangana was not that busy:-)

Daily dose of Sonam & Aisha gang

Who: Sonam Kapoor
Where: (L) The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - Mumbai Premiere, (R) At Fever FM

So what do you think? Is she forgiven for yesterday's appearance? Sonam decided to do classy and chic today. The stunning blue dress is from CUE - a label by Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna, which she wore with clutch and pumps. The simple but elegant black dress is from Whistles, accessorized with CD bag and black pumps...love the blue dress and CD bag:-)

Who: Ira Dubay
Where: (L) The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - Mumbai Premiere, (R) At Fever FM

Two different events, same exact pose - the neck is titled at the same angle!! Someone has been practicing in front of the mirror:-)
I think I am in love with the divinely draped Varun Bahl nude asymmetrical dress. Ira wisely didn't over-accessorize and completed her look with Grey printed peep-toes. Her Fever FM is nothing to write about..

Who: Amrita Puri
Where: (L) The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - Mumbai Premiere, (R) At Fever FM

Wow, I am really impressed!! What is the budget for this movie's promotion?? And the sidekicks are better dressed than the Star:P
I am having a tough time deciding which one I like better. The bright green bandage-style dress by Elise Overland or the floral print pink/purple dress..green, no, pink...no, green..

Who: Lisa Haydon
Where:The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - Mumbai Premiere

One is lonely number:( Lisa was not present for the FM promotions but made it up at the premiere in an elegant Mandira Wirk dress with tulip hemline. Looks like a laser cut pattern and the shoes are really cool.

So which dress did u like best?

UPDATE : Aisha Music launch

Update on Rhea Kapoor's oufit:
I checked with Rhea Kapoor and she is wearing an Elizabeth and James jacket, a top from Zara, Alexander Wang pants and Alexander Wang booties, moms earrings..

The Star

Who: Sonam Kapoor

Sonam, as per her tweets, wore a Vivienne Westwood polka dot dress to the music launch of her next movie, Aisha. The movie is an Bollywood adaption of Jane Austen classic - Emma...Sonam paired the dress with a cute envelope clutch and simple shoes to create a super chic and elegant ensemble..Gorgeous hair..

The producer

Who: Rhea Kapoor

Sonam's younger sister, Rhea is the producer of the film. Rhea wore a smart jacket with skinnies and some really fierce shoes..All she is missing is a hat and she would have nailed the circus ringleader look!!

The dumb sidekick

Who: Ira Dubey

Ira, who plays Sonam's friend in the movie, wore a Dior dress, vintage belt and Dior shoes (Rhea Kapoor tweets) . Isn't that belt adorable? It really jazzes up a simple dress..

The hot bitch

Who: Lisa Haydon

Lisa makes her debut in this film and play the hot girl after the guy:-) She is also in Dior. I love, love her jacket, the mix of prints as well the unusual beige/grey combination. Not sure whats up with her makeup (her forehead is soo oily - wipe that stuff before you go out, honey!!) and her severe hairstyle..

So who do you think was best dressed at the event?

Who stole the show?
	The Star - Sonam Kapoor
	The producer - Rhea Kapoor
	The dumb sidekick - Ira Dubey
	The hot bitch - Lisa Haydon
	Dont make me choose!!
	They are adapting Emma?? Please shoot me!!
