Style Commentary For The Fashionista Lurking In You.

High Heel Confidential

More Of That…

July 3rd, 2008 . by payal

So Priyanka Chopra walked the red carpet at the premiere of “Love Story 2050″ in London in black silk gown that reminded me of the one she wore to the Ensemble event…

Although this is a safe bet and she does look good, I would have loved to see color!(Remember the Ferretti gown from IIFA 2008!)

Speaking Of Shoes…

July 3rd, 2008 . by payal

How awful are the ones on Ms. Ekta Kapoor! The woman is pretty, has lovely hair and a dress that would have looked crisp paired with some pumps…

Now, I can understand that sometimes we tend to pick style over comfort(wearing pumps may not be appealing if you have to move around a lot), but with kitten heels and flats, there is no excuse to be out and about in these ugly slipons!

Maison Martin Margiela Sandals: Love It Or Hate It?

July 3rd, 2008 . by payal

First seen on Rachel Bilson, the Maison Martin Margiela Sandals reminded me of the 80’s look where you wore leg warmers over shoes, and as quirky as they might be, I still am digging these sandals!

What say you?

P.S. Nina is not wearing the Margiela ones…just a variation…

Kabhi On, Kabhi Off…

July 3rd, 2008 . by payal

What’s going on with the beauty queens these days? They all seem to slackin off when it comes to their dressing sense(barring Priyanka Chopra, of course!)…

And, what’s going on with her in pants in one picture and then without, in another???

From The Archives

Simone Singh

Drashta Sarvaiya SS 07

The silhouette makes me think Simone is in Drashta Sarvaiya, its pretty identical barring the print itself. I actually prefer the smaller print far more than the bigger abstract print that Simone has on.

On her frame, I think the big print overwhelms her and instead would have loved to see the smaller print version on her!

People are often wary of prints but there really is no reason to be. If the print is busy, keep everything else easy and minimal and print free. If you are of bigger built, then choose prints that have a vertical flow rather than horizontal. There is no reason to stray from bigger prints, however, if you are petite in stature then avoid bigger prints (like in the case of Simone) as they can overwhelm. If print shy, start with clothes that have no more than two colors.

Its summer, embrace the print! In any case, confidence goes with chic, so wear your clothes well! :)

Pooja In Bebe

July 2nd, 2008 . by payal

Spotted Pooja in a Bebe tweed corset dress at the launch of Colors TV. The hair reminds me of Priyanka Chopra and the makeup is a bit much, but the she sure pulls it off…

Knockout Knockoff: Part Deux!

July 2nd, 2008 . by payal

After the Balenciaga lookalike, Steve Madden has now come out with its version of the Dior Extreme cutout sandal seen on SJP in Sex And The City…

Gosh, the Balenciaga one was quite different when it came to the details, but this is almost a mirror image!

P.S. Would it be that bad if I bought the Steve Madden one and added all $$$ saved to my “Louboutin” fund!!! ;)

Ok, so obviously Aishwarya Rai’s shades in Sarkar Raj did not quite cost Rs ten lakhs, but if the mere suggestion got you breathless, here are a pair of super expensive shades… The Dolce and Gabbana sunglasses cost a whopping $383,609!! Yessiree, you heard it right!

We know where Ash should be shopping for the next sequel don’t we?!!? ;)

I love this kurta, both for its understated appeal and for the ease with which it can be worn!

Beauty And The…

July 1st, 2008 . by payal

Ok, so Harman aint beastly looking yet, but is it me or is Priyanka getting hotter with every passing day and Harman ghastlier!

For once I would like for him to look crisp and clean and at par with the ravishing Piggy Chops!
