Spotted around town

Who: Vidya Balan
Where: Seven hills cosmetic launch

Vidya as the "Runaway Bride"?? How else to explain the bridal saree and the unkempt hair? She sure does have a fetish for bridal sarees..

Who: Dia Mirza
Where: Panasonic event

Love the accessories but the dress, hmm, is blah. Have seen this nude + brown accessories a zillion times and I am bored.

Who: Amrita Rao
Where: "Luv u, Mr Kalakar" music launch

I like the dress, cute! Since the dress is so hyper, Amrita could have easily skipped the brooch at the waist and opted for simpler shoes. The current ones compete with the dress for attention.

I am too lazy to do a separate post. So here are the scans from Sonam Kapoor's latest photo shoot (April'11 Filmfare). One thing I have to say this girl sure does love to experiment and (ok, two things) its difficult to keep her away from photo shoots and magazine covers!

Looks of the day

Who: Sonam Kapoor
Where: "Thank you" promos in Dubai

Beautiful colors, great accessories and glossy hair cant hide the fact that the dress looks like a fancy window dressing. I bet the drawstring around Sonam's neck can be used to lower or hike up the hemline like the window dressing it so resembles:P

Who: Lara Dutta
Where: "Challo Dilli" first look

I like this from the waist up. The hair and makeup are lovely, as is the color of the jumpsuit. The gold belt adds a glam touch. If this were a dress, I would have loved it. Of course, because it’s a jumpsuit, I just can’t fully embrace it.

Who: Shraddha Kapoor
Where: Y Films for youth launch

Shraddha is looking very chic and classy in the black brocade skirt( Zara??) and red top. I do like the socks but cant make up my mind regarding the shoes. What do you think - do the shoes make or break the outfit?

Who: Sarah Jane Dias
Where: "Game" promos

Sarah in a hot pink dress with blue shoes and white clutch. I think the blue shoes was a great idea but not happy with the execution. Some other style maybe??

Who: Madhuri Dixit

Where: "Maha Challenge"

Graceful as ever!

Spotted around town

Who: Sonam Kapoor
Where: Sameer Dattani's wedding

Looks like color blocking is on everyone's mind! Sonam wore a bright and loud saree that beautifully demonstrates the use of contrasting colors to create a color block outfit that screams Spring ( and Holi)! Her hair and makeup is also perfect and I like the wrinkled effect in the fabric.
Sonam is wearing Masaba.

Who: Jacqueline Fernandez
Where: Akanksha NGO event

Another color-block outfit (Masaba??). The colors are on the cooler side in this outfit and the top is very boho-chic but something is off. Not sure if its the length of the top or the style of the pants.

Who: Avantika and Imran Khan
Where: Sameer Dattani's wedding, Svenska dinner party

Great taste in men, terrible when it comes to clothes:P

Sonam and Rhea Kapoor - Lakme Fashion Week (Day one)

Who: Sonam and Rhea Kapoor

Where: Lakme Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2011

Fashion Roadkill!! Layering overload!!
Sonam Kapoor is drunk. That's the only rational explanation for this wardrobe choice!
Seriously, did Sonam have to wear every item from her closet?!? The only saving grace is her clutch and her necklace which be the way looks totally random:P

Weekend Roundup

Who: Sonam Kapoor
Where: Shahid Kapoor bday bash

Bed-sheet tied up with string or lovely grecian dress ?? You decide.

Who: Suzanne Khan
Where: At her "Charcoal project"

Suzanne kept it simple in a very feminine and flattering LBD in a classic silhouette - a close-fitted bodice and full-flare skirt nipped with a skinny belt. The pleating on the sleeve and tiers on the skirt add a new twist to the old classic. Love!

Who: Preity Zinta
Where: Suzanne Khan "Charcoal project"

Love is blind, so is adoration:-) I refuse to see Preity's washed out face or her common-place front-ruffle dress. I think she just rocks!!

Who: Katrina Kaif, Twinkle Khanna
Where: Suzanne Khan "Charcoal project"

Katrina succeeded in doing the impossible - making florals look as dull as the ditch water. And as if the dress wasn't depressing enough, Katrina paired it with drab brown accessories.
Twinkle also wore some dull colors but by adding a bright green bag and layered gold necklace, she totally elevated her outfit. All hail the queen of accessorizing!!

Who: Shilpa Shetty, Sophie Choudry
Where: Suzanne Khan "Charcoal project"

Wow, Shilpa's body is a work of art! Just one question - how do you sit in that dress or more importantly, breath?

A wraparound dress and a tulip hemline - both are my favorites and no wonder, I love Sophie's outfit. The color is great and I like her choice of accessories.

Who: Gauri Khan, Farah Ali Khan
Where: Suzanne Khan "Charcoal project"

Is that really you, Gauri? Gauri in something that is not bright orange, OTT or blinding us! And she is looking good! Gauri is hip and trendy in a masculine pants worn with a very feminine halter top. I just hope she keeps it up.
Farah also looks trendy in her slim cigarette pants worn with a loose white top and teamed with red clutch and red lips. Not sure about her hairstyle - I think its too teenagerish for such a sophisticated outfit.

Who: Rani Mukherjee, Genelia D'souza, Sonali Bendre
Where: Shahid Bday bash

Rani - Whoa, why is she so orange?Is she preparing to be a pumpkin in her next movie?
Genelia - Lacy leggings with a sheer blouse?? No one is that cute enough to make such an outfit work!
Sonali - She is having a serious relationship with bib necklaces and I am not complaining!

Style roundup

Who: Amrita Arora, Raageshwari, Akanksha Malhotra, Namrata Barua
Where: Araish Exhibition

All four wore the most basic of outfits - jeans + white top but added instant glamor with $$$ designer bags. Love the color of the Kelley bag but also like brown against white (Raageshwari) and Amrita's top is cute..Well, I cant decide which look I like best!

Who: Sonam Kapoor
Where: At a wedding

This one is easy. Love the color combination, hate the pant style.

Who: Preity Zinta
Where: Adolfo Dominguez Store launch

Preity wore a black drop-down waist dress with a silver bow and red pumps to a store launch. Curly hair and heavy eyeliner completed the look. She will always look gorgeous to me but I cant help but notice that her skirt is crumpled and the fitting around her waist is little off:(

Who: Ayesha Thapar, Anupama Dayal
Where: Adolfo Dominguez Store launch

Ayesha - Dreamy, romantic dress paired with red lips and gold peep-toes. Perfect.
Anupama -Love the pairing of a tailored leather jacket with a floaty chiffon dress. The shoes just don't work for me. Its one more element fighting for attention.

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!
