What do you wear to a movie screening?

Who: Neelam, Genelia D'souza, Shreya Saran

Who: Shazahn Padamsee, Soha Ali Khan, Dia Mirza

I am definitely don't dress up like Shreya but neither do I go as a homeless person (Shazahn)! My style is more like Soha but with heels and some makeup and my favorite accessories - a big bag of buttered popcorn and coke:-)

What do you wear?

Looks of the day

Who: Rani Mukherjee
Where: P &G Shiksa school building event

Even though Rani is wearing the hottest color of the season, the outfit is not very exciting and it adds pounds to her slim silhouette. The color does look great on her.

Who: Lara Dutta
Where: "Chalo Dilli" Promotions

Lara looks deliriously happy but all I can think about is a big, fat slice of white wedding cake! If only this dress was made of cake:P

Who: Sushma Reddy
Where: Femina Miss India party

OMG, such gorgeous shades of blue. Beautiful bandage dress. Pity about the shoes and the hair.

Who: Shazahn Padamsee, Shraddha Kapoor
Where: Grazia party

Shazahn - This could have an great look if she had worn different colored shoes. The nude shoes although cute, just don't flow with the outfit.

Shraddha - Too bland, Too meh. Flat hair. No

I really love my...

Who: Anushka Sharma
Where: Outside a multiplex, "Patiala House" promos

.. high-waisted, pleated pants. Both times, Anushka wore a white printed tee but added color with a bright shoe or belt.

Who: Mehr Jessia Rampal,
Where: Arctic vodka bask, "Rajneeti" success bash

..backless, translucent top and black skinnies. Mehr makes a dramatic exit in this beautiful top. The outfit is chic and smart, so thumbs up for recyling it!

Who: Shazahn Padamsee
Where: Stardust party, Triumph Show

.. black beaded, multi-tiered dress. Shazahn repeats her LBD but changes her accessories to give the dress a fresh look. I love the leopard clutch but cant decide on the shoes. Which one did you like better with her dress?

The good, the bad and the ugly

Who: Shazahn Padamsee
Where: Kimaya wines launch

A cute, decent look. I cannot make up my mind if layered necklaces would have added to the look? What do you guys think?

Who: Sarah Jane Dias
Where: Radio Mirchi show

Cute top but the drawstring pants should not have made it past her front door. They are prefect for lounging around the house but to be seen in public in them - hmm, I would need to be really, really drunk:-)

Who: Esha Koppikar
Where: Anu Ranjan's woman's day bash

Breathtakingly ugly outfit! Makes me yearn for the days of black and white pics.
And to think of it, she actually paid money for this outfit:P


One more thing, do check out my guest post for FCUK, India - "Fashion Redemption: Kangana Ranaut". Thx!

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!

Looks of the day

Who: Chitrangada Singh in Burberry Resort 2011
Where: At the opening of Burberry store

I dont have a full size image of Chitrangada at the Burberry store opening so till then, the runway picture will have to do:(

That out of the way, I just want to drool over Chitrangada. She is tres magnifique! What really blew me away was the color combination of soft orange with brown and then topped with red lips. She is the only one who can carry off this "window drapes inspired couture" dress:-) Dying to see what shoes she wore..

Who: Shazahn Padamsee
Where: Museum store opening

Another "meh" floral dress but Shazahn kept it interesting by wearing red hot peep-toes with it. Another reason to buy more shoes since they can totally make or break an outfit.

The good and the ugly

Who: Raageshwari
Where: At a comedy play presented by Jet airways

Isn't that skirt divine? Love the unusual print/embroidery on it. Raageshwari paired the dress with a silver BV and silver pumps. Not sure why she choose silver, would have preferred white peep-toes and deep blue clutch. Her hair looks weird too, so lets just admire the skirt and leave it at that.

Who: Shazahn Padamsee, Sophie Choudry
Where: Dr Rashmi Shetty party, Valentine's day party

Two great floral outfits - one for the day and one for night. Like Shazahn's better becoz of the vintage-y print.

Who: Esha Koppikar
Where: At a comedy play presented by Jet airway

All I see is the red Birkin. Esha's outfit doesn't live up-to the dramatic red Hermes. The way to fix this is to take it off and put something else on:-)

photo credits: filmicafe.com, bollywoodhungama.com

I really love my...

Who: Shazahn Padamsee
Where: Shabana's Azmi bday party, Gitanjali store

..stripes and floral dress. Shazahn first wore this dress with red slingbacks and brown clutch. On the next outing, she paired the dress with black accessories. I like it with black accessories but would have preferred a smaller clutch. Which way did you like it?

Who: Priyanka Chopra
Where: Airport style

..my bomber jacket, jeans and sneakers. Looks like this is Priyanka's travel uniform as both times she was spotted in this outfit at the airport. At least she changed her tee:P

Looks of the day

Who: Priyanka Chopra
Where: Radio Mirchi awards

I'm speechless.

Priyanka in an outfit that actually goes past her mid-thigh.

Priyanka, "sophisticated" and "chic" - all in the same sentence.

wow.

I can die peacefully now. My work here is done.

Who: Rani Mukerjee
Where: Radio Mirchi awards

Neck up she is looking pretty but the colors of her outfit are drab and dull. Even her beautiful smile cant save the dress.

Who: Katrina Kaif
Where: At the book launch of "Tonite this savage rite"

Life is so simple when you just wear three colors - red, white and black, no?
Katrina is back in white, in an outfit that is too bridal. Take the sleeves out, add a belt and some sexy shoes (loubs) and maybe - nope, even that cant fix the dress!

Who: Anuskha Sharma, Shazahn Padamsee
Where: Radio Mirchi

Two Pretty Young Things in snooze worthy dresses that most probably cost two months rent!

Celebs on the ramp

Manish Malhotra

Who: Priyanka Chopra, Lara Dutta

Who:Shilpa Shetty, Anushka Sharma

Who: Neha Dhupia, Sameera Reddy

Who: Shazahn Padamdee, Dia Mirza

Who: Celina Jaitley, Amrita Rao

Who: Monikangana Dutta, Lisa Haydon

Shyamal and Bhumika

Who:Sonakshi Sinha

Which designer outfit did you like best?

photo credits: filmicafe.com, pinkvilla.com

Spotted around town

Who: Deepika Padukone
Where: Triumph show

Runaway disco ball on the red carpet!!

Deepika's outfit would have worked but the red nails, crystal belt and clutch make the whole thing look like an expensive Forever21 creation that is intended for a Christmas party with some disco dancing.

Who: Akshay Kumar and Twinkle
Where: Triumph show

Akshay looks yummy and I could drool all day long but the giant chessboard keeps distracting me. Oops, its his wife, Twinkle! Hey, not a bad dress. Loose the ruffle and we are talking.

Who: Shazahn, Soniya Mehra, Sonakshi Sinha
Where: Triumph show

Shazahn - I like her clutch and shoes but her dress is yawnsville and it somehow doesn't flow with her accessories.
Soniya - Great dress but socks!! Girlfriend, what were you thinking? I like quirky but that's just silly.
Sonakshi - I like the whole look but I think its more suited to a causal event.

Who: Amrita Arora, Neelam
Where: Triumph show

Amrita's leopard print dress is cute but those shoes really clash with the outfit.

Neelam's printed dress has a classy and chic look but for the piece of lace around her shoulder. Looks like the designer ran out of material and patched it together with lace.

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!

Weekend Roundup

Who: Vidya Balan, Urmila Matondkar
Where: At a wedding reception

Red alert!! Vidya and Urmila razzled and dazzled at a recent wedding. Rani wore a reddish-pink saree whereas Urmila went all out in red-n-gold anarkali (Manish Malhotra??). What's ur wedding style - simple like Vidya or OTT like Urmila becoz its a wedding after all?

Who: Karisma Kapur, Rani Mukerjee, Shazahn Padmasee
Where: Launch of Goretti Store, NOKJ promos, "Dil To bacha Hai" promos

Jeans love!! Seriously, jeans are so versatile. You can dress them up with a formal shirt and a nice bag or go for a laid-back look in ripped jeans and simple t-shirt. My favorite is wearing it with nautical stripes and then adding some color with a bag or scarf.

Who: Chitrangada Singh
Where: "Yeh Zindagi sali" film promos

Girl Crush!! Chitrangada is just perfect in every way in this monochromatic outfit and "I WANT THOSE" shoes. This woman looks good in anything! She complete the look with nude makeup and flowy hair.

Who: Minissha Lamba
Where: At "Save out tigers" event

Who let the tiger out?
Not very sure about this one. What do you guys think? Yikes or Yowza??
