Black done two ways

Who: Malaika Arora Khan, Mona Singh
Where: Sets of "Jhalak Dikhla Ja"

Malaika's black dress is OTT and really bad and she makes it worse by pairing it with those silver/diamond jewelery. Mona fares much better in a beautiful black/gold anarkali dress. I would have preferred a slightly shorter length so that one could see the pants.

New BFFs in town - Part II

Who: Vidya, Rani

For a yet another NOKJ promotional event, Vidya stuck to her kurti+ jeans whereas Rani went for a more tailored look in a shirt+ skirt paired with Chanel necklace. Like Rani here since she made some effort before stepping out of the house.

Who: Rani and Vidya

This is from an event that happened yesterday. Both, Rani and Vidya, are in Sabyasachi. Completely smitten by Rani's outfit - love, love that shade of blue and the black sleeves are just perfect otherwise the blue would have been overwhelming. And I really think she should have worn some nice, big earrings.
Vidya's outfit has a very boho-chic look but doesn't really come together.

New BFFs in town

Who: Rani and Vidya
Where: At various "No one killed Jessica" promotions

Pretty positive, they are sharing the same makeup artist and hair stylist!! Whereas clothes are concerned, who cares - they are both great actresses and I don't base my movie choices on what actresses wear on the red carpet.

Do you??

Events: Farah Ali Khan bday party

Who: Dia Mirza

Dia in a cutesy, diaphanous LBD teamed with gold accessories. Love the overall look but didn't quite like her necklace on close-up. Its soo last season - Looks like Santa skipped someone's house:-)

Who: Farah Ali Khan

The birthday girl also wore a LBD and she topped it off with a dazzling emerald earrings. This pairing reminds me of Angelina @ Oscars 2009.

Between the two LBDs, I liked Farah's better since I am not a big fan of co-ordinating one's accessories..

Who: Queenie Dhody

Is this how we are wearing sari's nowdays?The sari is gorgeous and I like the gold top/blouse with the contrasting pattern but its going to take me sometime to get used to this way of draping. And the necklace is just too much - Queenie with more bling than a Xmas tree.

Who: Amisha Patel

Wow, I really thought we will have world peace wa-a-y before Amisha *cough* cover *cough* cleans ups her act. Whoever fixed this needs to report to the UN peacekeeping force ASAP!!

Have fun!!

A post of few words...

Who: Karishma Kapoor
Where: Launch of Square mobile

Karishma in a black silk embroidered kurti/top and jeans. I like the top but not with the dark jeans. The combination is not very visually appealing..

Who: Shazahn Padamsee, Sonakshi Sinha
Where: "Dil to Bacha Hai" promos, MMK college event

Both, Shazahn and Sonakshi, wore very similar outfits - black skinnies, white shoes, white top and black outerwear. Shahzahn went for a vest whereas Sonakshi donned a black jacket. Regular, run-of-the-mill outfits..

Who: Vidya Balan and Rani Mukerjee
Where: "No one killed Jessica" promos

Dont have full-length pics:-( Do you think they changed out of their jeans?? Knowing their dressing sense, they are quite capable of pairing the top/dress with the jeans!!

Who wore it better? - BCBG dress

Left: Mallika Sherawat @ Sahara Star bash
Right: Arpita Khan @ Burberry bash

Looks of the day

Who: Malaika Arora Khan
Where: Sahara Star New York party announcement

Malaika did the mini + blazer combo pairing a gold BCBG(??) dress with a black blazer and nude Loubs. Two things (i) Having never looked beyond her always-on-display-legs, I didn't realize she is quite pretty (ii) not sure I like black with this shade of gold..Shoes, I will take anyday.

Who: Urmila Matondakar
Where: Anita Dogre Store launch

Urmila wore a cute, printed one-shoulder dress to the store opening. Love the dress and the shoes make the orange in the dress pop out. Orange clutch - an overkill..
Looks like her hair stylist had a day off.

Who: Raveena Tandon, Tisca Chopra, Gul Panang
Where: Anita Dogre Store launch

Raveena - So many things messed up here. The waistband is too wide of her size, the dress too long and the shoes just plain wrong. BV clutch - always right.

Tisca - Love her Tod's Bauletto satchel and her perfectly polished look.

Gul - Too blinded by her red shoes to look at anything else..

Who: Mugdha Godse
Where: Herbalife launch

Ooh la la, That is a great look on Mugdha! She is uber-fancy in a cream gown with sheer overlay skirt. The gold embellishment at the neck is a nice touch and I love the way the skirt flows. You like?

Jacqueline - Lets just admire her shoes and move on..I mean, seriously how high has she worn her shorts? The look - Baboon or Buffoon ?

Mandira - Cant think of one nice thing to say:P
Wait a sec, Isnt the hand the symbol of one on the major political party (Congress-I)?? If I were the leader of that party, I would be really worried..

So who do you think was best dressed today?
