Aishwarya at Guzaarish promos

Who: Aishwarya Rai and Hrithik Roshan
Where: "Guzaarish" first look

Aishwarya kept it simple in a Juicy Couture peasant top and jeans at the unveiling of her new movie "Guzaarish". Its a Sanjay Leela Bhansali movie and also stars Hrithik Roshan. Hrithik looks pretty smart in his blazer and jeans combo - although the jeans are a tad long...

Here is the "Guzaarish" promo. The movie looks interesting and different:-) Are you guys looking forward to it?

Daily Catch

Who: Manidra Bedi
Where: Nishita Merchant's accessories launch

Mandira changed out of her uniform of short dresses into a cute anarkali for an accessories launch. She gave it her touch by going for a strapless design. I like how she layered a pearl necklace with a jade green one.

Who: Priyanka Chopra
Where: Peace event in wake of Babri Masjid verdict

Will Priyanka never changer her style? More than anything, I think its inappropriate outfit for an event that has nothing to do with movies/fashion but with ensuring peace between two religious communities.. She might start a riot herself in her mini:-)

Who: Guest
Where: Nishita Merchant's accessories launch

I love the simplicity and color of this dress. The gold goes really well with the color and the narrow gold strip draws attention to her slim waist. All about highlighting your best features.

Looks of the day

Who: Malaika Arora Khan
Where: Special charity screening of "Dabangg"

Dayum, She makes even a simple pair of jeans looks so am-muh-zing! Malaika has a very well portioned body and this outfit shows off her tiny waist.
She wore a halter neck black top with jeans and recycled yesterday's bag and shoes. Those sequin faces on her top are a little creepy...

Who: Kangana Ranaut
Where: Mahurat of "Power"

Even though its only Wednesday, Kangana decided to do "Casual Friday". She dressed down in a cute ruffle dress. Not sure why she has such a sullen expression on her face - did she just realize its only mid-week:-) Or maybe she saw her footwear - hey, even I would be upset!!

Who: Ameesha Patel
Where: Mahurat of "Power"

What do you think? Is Ameesha's dress an upgrade or downgrade from her last red carpet look? Dunno know about the outfit but she definitely needs to get her foundation right...

Celebs at Lakme Fashion Week Winter 2010

Left: Rani Mukherjee, Right: Mugdha Godse

Rani in a yawn inducing outfit that combines her two current loves - black color and jumpsuits. I anoint thee Queen of Snoozeville!!

Black is the color of the day for Mughda! She wore a black jumpsuit to the Araish event and in the evening, changed into a black anarkali for Neeta Lulla's show. Cant find any major flaws other than her shoes..

Who:Tabu
Left: Shabana Azmi's party, Right: Lakme Fashion Week 2010

Tabu continue her love affair with sequins and short dresses. I like her white/gold outfit - its good I cant see her shoes since I am sureto be disappointed:-) The blue looks good on Tabu but I am not sure about the fit of the dress..Its really looks like a sack..

Left: Juhi Chawla, Right: Amisha Patel

Juhi and Amisha wore anarkalis to Neeta Lulla's fashion show. One looks graceful and elegant, the other looks like an idiotic moron..No prizes for guessing which one is which:-)

Who: Soniya Mehra

Its just not my day when even Soniya fails to cheer me up!! Sigh..Soniya wore a floral, multi-tiered dress to the event. I like her side-braid, the floral part of the dress and her gorgeous oxfords. The polka-dot part just doesn't flow with the rest of the outfit..Maybe if the dots were closer...

Lakme Fashion Week, Winter Festive 2010 - Malini Ramani

Malini Ramani showcased Lakmé’s theme for the season - the Gypsy Collection, at the Lakme Fashion Week, Grand Finale. The collection was divided into four segments - Mystery, Bliss, Cosmic and Nirvana of life and consisted of tribal and gypsy looks.
Mystery consisted of black long creations with shimmering mirror and shell embroidery. Bliss was a riot of colors that ranged from yellow, red, orange, black, brown and green. Cosmic mode had outfits that were embellished with the magnificent feather, shell and coins. The show ended with Nirvana which was done in black and red with lots of mirror work.

A very big collection with some dresses that are outstanding and lots that are wearable once you strip away the makeup and accessories. I love most of the outfits in first and third row..The second row is way too colorful for me:-)

Lakme Fashion Week, Winter Festive 2010 - Neeta Lulla

Neeta Lulla celebrated her two decades in the fashion industry with a show that celebrated Bollywood glamour. Her collection consisted of dresses, evening gowns, sequins encrusted turkish pants and net lehenga/sari combos. The garments were dominated by sequins, glittering Swarovski crystals, rosettes and pleating. The fabrics were rich silks, satin, chiffon, net and crepe and the color palette was vibrant yellow, orange, turquoise, blue, mauve, flame red, gold and emerald green.

I found the whole collection loud and tacky and fit only for the silver screen. The showstopper was Sridevi in a gown which I hope I never see again not even in Bollywood item numbers!!

Key Looks

The Always Fabulous SriDevi

Events: Araish Save the child exhibition

Who: Twinkle Khanna

Twinkle makes few appearance but when she does, she sure does make us sit up. She wore a bright flowery pattern dress that isn't too frenetic and shows off her stems:-) She smartly balanced the hyper-hued combo with nude shoes and and a simple structured bag with metallic detail. The overall effect is fresh without being over the top girly.

Who: Malaika Arora Khan

Malaika picked a classic, black, tailored, dress short to wear to the event. She spruced up the look with purple bag, jewelry and, of course, plenty of leg. I like how she chose to tuck in her striped top, as it prevents the look from being too casual..Not sure why she picked those nudish-pink wedges??

It just so happens that I came across the same combination (black bottoms + striped top) styled differently by two fashion bloggers. See here and here for style inspirations.

Who: Mugdha Godse

One step forward, two step backward - thats how Mugdha and Fashion go. Waist up Mugdha looks cute and adorable - I give her points for that. But those tapered legs are just nutso!! And if that much ugliness was not enough, she added pink shoes.

Left: Raveena Tandon, Right: Madhoo

Raveena's pants are going to cut off her circulation..Madhoo jeans look like they have some kind of skin infection..
