Weekend Roundup

Who: Aishwarya Rai
Where: FICCI Frames 2011 awards

Love the soft pink color but the saree isnt very striking or glamorous. Her pink makeup is perfect with the outfit.

Who: Vidya Balan
Where: FICCI Frames 2011 awards

I have given up hope of seeing Vidya in anything other than Sabyasachi but its good to see her in a color other than red or white. The green is stunning and the outfit is like a visual punch to the eyes. She needs to fire her makeup artist since the foundation isnt the right color and the yellow bindi is a really bad idea.

Who: Sonakshi Sinha
Where: FICCI Frames 2011 awards, FICCI Frames 2011 press conference

After the pleated shorts disaster last week, Sonakshi redeems herself in these two outfits. She is elegant in the white/gold outfit. Her printed blue/white outfit is just "wow"!! Love, love!! And her side plait gives her a youthful look. My only complaint - such a beautiful dress requires sky high stilettos :-)

Who: Kiran Rao
Where: FICCI Frames 2011 conference

Ha, Kiran decided to dress like a "normal" person! Have to say I like it!! Hopefully, she will return to her old style otherwise I will have to no one to make fun off:-) wait, we still have the Celinas and the Ameeshas...

Who: Malaika Arora Khan, Amrita Arora
Where: Polo match

I think the two sisters have great potential as con artists. One can dazzle and blind everyone with her age-defying hot body and the other can carry out the crime. Don't you think? I mean, was anyone looking at the horses at this match? Do they even remember which horse won??

Who: Amrita Rao
Where: Somewhere over the weekend

Fab or Fugly?

The good, the bad and the ugly

Who: Karisma Kapur
Where: Hrithik Roshan's bday

Karima was all sleek and shiny in a black-on-black ensemble. She went for a super slick and tight hairstyle that showed off her great bone structure and flawless skin. The top with an asymmetrical neckline is really cute but the pants look a little long.

Who: Bipasha Basu
Where: Hrithik Roshan's bday party

Thats not a bad look but for a night shindin?? Couldn't she put in some effort??!?

Who: Kiran Rao
Where: Imran Khan's mehendi and wedding ceremonies

"The serious, intellectual director who doesnt care about clothes". Puh-lease, even the village idiot has better dressing sense!! Stop trying so hard to be "quirky".

Who: Kangana Ranuat
Where: Hrithik Roshan's B'day party

I love the retro print and the shoes but Kangana wears it the only way she knows. Short and it reveals way too much!! Get it together, Kangana.

Eevnts:No One Killed Jessica movie premiere

Who: Rani Mukherjee

Rani wore a showstopping orange-red Donna Karan dress to the premiere that she paired with gold cut out pumps and a gold necklace. The hair and makeup looks beautiful but the dress could not be more unflattering. The fit is awful and the draping is sloppy. Other than the eye-popping color, there is nothing I like here:-(

Who: Vidya Balan

Yikes, whats up with all this bridal red sarees on red carpet? First, Deepika wore it to "Khelein hum Jee Jaam se" premiere and now Vidya. It would have been better if Vidya had stuck to her predictable Sabyasachi sarees.

Who: Kalki Koechlin, Chitrangada Singh

After all that red, Kalki is like a breath of fresh air - understated but chic in a cream saree with all-over leaf motifs which she teamed with a multi-stranded pearl strings.

A misstep by the always fabulous Chitrangada. She wore a Tarun Tahiliani anarkali which really doesnt work becoz of the wide belt. Hand her a sword and she looks ready to do battle!

Who: Shazahn Padamsee, Shraddha Kapoor

Shazahn sticks to cutesy safe formula and gets it right in a leather-velvet dress that fits her beautifully.

I like how Shraddha put together her outfit. She works a couple of popular trends here ( boyfriend blazer and floral top) but makes it look fresh.

Who: Amrita Rao, Kiran Rao

Amrita outfit would have been perfect if she had chosen a brighter color - not the fiery red which seems to be a favorite nowadays but something more youthful.

Kiran wore a delightful Prada Spring 2010 RTW jacket that totally goes with her quirky dressing sense. Its high-time she changed her hairtyle.

Who: Sophie Choudry, Sunita Gowariker

Love the color of Sophie's dress but the look is pretty ho-hum.

Sunita's silk top is fabulous with a luxe feel to it but such a wrong choice of footwear!!

Sheela Ki Jawani

The post has nothing to with the song but I cant get the dayum tune out of my head!! I know I going to get hell but I like it better than "Munni badnam". There I said it..

Ok, I digress..lets look at some fashion bloopers..

Who: Shriya Saran
Where: Den party

Shriya was doing good with the silk halter neck, CD bag and silver cutout shoes but then she added shorts into the mix. It doesn't playoff well with other elements of her look..Cuffed/formal black shorts would have looked better.

Who: Shilpa Shetty
Where: Esprit SOS event

No wonder Taylor Momsen is pantless, Shilpa is wearing her jeans:P
I am ok with ripped jeans but not when it looks like someone ran a lawn mover on them!!
Do love the tailored combination of brown/gray jacket with sunny, cheery yellow t-shirt..

Who: Kiran Rao
Where: At "Dhobi Ghat" first look

Kiran with a Todd D bag at the release of "Dhobi Ghat" first look. Is she going to be a director whose bags cost more than her movies:-)

Here's the official trailer of "Dhobi Ghat".


What do you guys think?? Does look interesting...

And here is the song!!

Spotted around town

Who: Lisa Ray
Where: Fortis Cancer Institute inauguration

The gorgeous Lisa Ray keeps it simple in an off-shoulder Olive green dress with side ruching. Perfectly matches her eye color:-) From what I have read, looks like she has beaten her cancer (yay!!) . Wish her a long, long, healthy life...

Who: Kangana Ranaut
Where: At "Double Dhamaal" launch

Kangana looks causal chic in a crisply, tailored military jacket. I like how the sharp cut of the coat is feminized with a waist-emphasizing red belt and again how she balanced the "boy"element of the jacket with super-short skirt. Not really convinced by her shoe choice..

Who: Kiran Rao
Where: At "Double Dhamaal" launch

Kiran looks sophisticated and classy in a LBD worn with beige peep-toes and a traditional necklace. Not sure why she added those pink sunnies - her way of saying I am quirky, u cannot "categorize" me under one style/look..She is so messing with our brains:-)
