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?

Red Carpet Event:Stardust awards 2011

Who: Anushka Sharma, Sonakshi Sinha

Anushka is elegant and lethal in a beautifully draped dress. I havent seen Anushka in a gown and she looks incredibly alluring in this color. Thankfully, she didnt add any necklace and kept it simple with silver earrings.
Sonakshi does love this style since she already owns this dress in mustard yellow. The pulled back hair, silver pumps - all give it a very sophisticated, chic look. Two thumbs up to the lovely color.

Who: Amrita Puri, Mehr and Arjun Rampal, Twinkle Khanna

Amrita wore a dusty pink, bodycon dress. I think the dress is rather cute with the over-sized flower but not happy with her shoe choice.
Its impossible to get a clear picture of what Mehr is wearing since she is clinging to her husband in very shot. Seeing how delicious Arjun looks, I can hardly blame her!
Twinkle wore an asymmetrical silver dress, teamed with silver shoes and earrings. I wish she had gone one size up becoz right now she looks tightly wrapped in a silver foil!

Who: Suzanne Roshan, Prachi Desai, Shraddha Kapoor

Like the streamlined look of Suzanne's dress and its a pity we cant clearly see the McQueen skull clutch.
Prachi - OMG, who did this to you??It should be a crime for anyone to step out in such a horrific outfit.
Shraddha - The skirt is very interesting and would have worked with a simple tank top. The clutch is too shiny for me.

Who: Neha Dhupia, Sophie Choudry

Neha wore a yellow/black Shane and Falguni outfit. Its a very striking dress and I think she does justice to this dress with her sleek, shiny hair and smokey eyes.
I love everything about Sophie's dress but wish someone more interesting had worn it.

Who: Rani Mukerjee, Sonali Bendre, Kajol

Black/gold is a very safe and boring combination on the red carpet. But the addition of the red blouse/top, upgrades this look. Smart choice, Rani.
I like how Sonali added a skinny belt to her red saree resulting in a silhouette different from a normal saree. I just wished she had worn a less glitzy top.
Kajol is one of my favorite actress but her dress choices really confound me!

Red Carpet Event: Filmfare awards 2011(Part 2)

Who: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

No surprises here - was pretty sure Aishwarya will be in a saree. Just surprised that its not ugly or OTT!! The saree is very elegant and Aish looks graceful.

Who: Katrina Kaif

Katrina wore a Manish Malhotra creation which is stupendously beautiful! It looks like she walked off the ramp into the event:-) Given that the outfit is so blingy, Katrina kept her makeup and accessories minimal. Also surprised to her "girls" since Katrina rarely does cleavage..

Who: Preity Zinta

I am incapable of making an objective judgment here, becoz of my overwhelming affection for Preity Zinta:-)

Who: Vidya Balan, Dia Mirza

Any guess as to who Vidya is wearing:-)
The outfit doesnt need such a statement necklace and her hair isnt winning her any points today.

Dia kept it simple in a black saree (not sure if its a saree or lengha) with a lace top. Her top has a very unusual design. Close ups are below.

I do love the lace-y, sexy look but the the back is a little creepy - looks like the saree is coming out of her body!!

Who: Urmila Matondkar, Esha Koppikar, Mini Mathur

Urmila - Another Manish Malhotra creation. This guy certainly has a hold on the celebs:-)

Esha - Even though this look is simple, its one of her best looks. The rest of the times, she come across as trying too hard.

Mini - Love this woman's style. She is always looks effortlessly chic!

Who: Kajol, Kalki Koechlin

In case of any emergency, we all can use Kajol's oufit to parachute to safety!

Kalki has a quirky style but this is not quirky - this is what every starlet on a cheap budget wears! Dont loose ur individualism, Kalki - Fire the person who suggested this to you!

Red Carpet Event: Filmfare awards 2011(Part 1)

Who: Sonakshi Sinha

Looks like someone read our blogpost and took our advice! Sonakshi, finally in something that is youthful and bright. The color and the draping is just gorgeous and I love her cascading curls. The fresh look just hit the right note for the occasion. Congrats on winning the best debut of the year for 'Dabaang'.

Who: Genelia D'Souza, Neha Dhupia

Genezlia - Other than the color, there is nothing I like here.

On the fence for Neha's dress. The color and style is pretty neat but somehow the outfit falls flat and really doesn't excite me.

Who: Rani Mukerjee, Sridevi

Rani - This is the only pic available and can I just say WOW!! Love the way the fabric falls. The blue really compliments her skin color and the look is just tres magnifique!

Sridevi- Great color, great outfit but the creases are so bad that it distracts and completely takes away the beauty of the dress.

Who: Prachi Desai, Malaika Arora Khan

Not a big fan of Prachi but have to say she looks cute with the side plait. As for the dress, the bottom part could be used as a toilet brush, no?

Malaika - This woman is flawless. She only has one look - the cougar look and dayum, she has perfected it!!

Who: Amrita Puri, Suzanne Roshan

Finally, someone in scarlet red!! Both are great dresses - Amrita's dress is beautifully tailored (love the pleats on the bodice) and Suzanne has sexy draping. Suzzane went a little overboard with matching accessories and red hair so this one goes to Amrita.

Who: Mugdha Godse, Sameera Reddy

Even though her clutch color is a little jarring, I like Mugdha with her shiny, slick hair. She looks chic and sassy.

Sameera - This is how a dress designed by a 'split-personality soap-opera character' would look like - loud, loud and so OTT!!

Red Carpet Event: Apsara awards 2011

Who: Katrina Kaif

Stunning. Flattering. An exquisitely-made saree. Love the deep red, dainty velvet blouse. Katrina owns the red carpet.

Who: Vidya Balan

No surprises here. Vidya has only two dressing modes (i) Sabyasachi saree or (ii) Kurti/jeans. And did you notice, she never ever carries a handbag?? where does she keep her stuff?? Maybe she has a hot male flunkie carrying her handbag;-) Oh, the perks of being rich!!

Who: Aishwarya Rai

If there were rumors going around about me being replaced by a "younger model" for a brand that I have represented since 2005, I would totally speed dial Rachel Zoe and "shut down" the red carpet at every event. Instead, Aishwarya looks inspid in this Manish Malhotra anarkali. Beautiful woman, always in wrong clothes.

Red Carpet Event: Apsara awards 2011

Who: Sonakshi Sinha

The beauty of this dress is in the exquisite detailing on the corset top. And what does Sonakshi do? Camouflage it with her Halloween witch hair!! We are smart, aren't we?

All the success has gone to her hair:P

Who: Malaika Arora Khan, Shraddha Kapoor

Malaika brings some serious ooomph to the red carpet in a black, metallic Herve Leger. Red lips and silver accessories completed to her look. Looks like the dress is spray-painted on her:-)
Shraddha opted for a more demure, girly look in a black/pink dress. I like what I have been seeing on Shraddha lately. Some fresh blood in town!!

Who: Priyanka Chopra, Prachi Desai

Forget the disappointing dresses ( disappointing is a mild word for what Prachi has worn). If these nitwits cant even figure out what shoes to wear with these outfits, they really should quit show business!! This is red carpet and I am a deeply superficial person.

Anushka is pretty as hell but so boring. Being a former ramp model, she should know what to wear on the red carpet.
Rani looks like a lampshade. One dress, two ways!!

The black army..

Who: Antara Mali
Where: Launch of Conde Nast "Traveller" magazine

Havent see her in a looong time!! Antara in a LBD, smoky eyes and loads of silver jewelery. Her whole look above the knees says red carpet event but she goofed up her shoes..The shoes would have worked if she was going for an informal, causal kinda look..

Who: Aameera Reddy
Where: Launch of Conde Nast "Traveller" magazine

Sameera wore a cut-out ivory silk top and tapered pants to the magazine launch. A tailored look with very clean lines.

Who: Malaika Arora Khan
Where: Bharat n Dorris awards

The ruffles of Malaika 's LBD are eye-catching. They go very well with the simplicity and silhouette of her dress. The outfit will look better if she reverses the color of her shoes and clutch - black peep-toes and a white/silver clutch..

Who: Guest
Where: Launch of Conde Nast "Traveller" magazine

Her jewels and the side-cutout caught my eye. A very interesting look - the cutouts add sexiness to an otherwise prim dress and the necklace adds an ethnic contrast to the western outfit..

Who: Preity Zinta
Where: Bharat n Dorris awards

Saved the best for last!! Doesnt she have the most beautiful smile in the whole wide world??? And the bow at her waist is so cute..Muah!!
