Cover Wars!

Perhaps, the folks over at Elle heard all of us complain about how tired we were of seeing the same ole’ people because they changed things up and gave us two fresh faces on the Sep/Oct covers. The September edition had model Jyothsna Chakravarthy wearing Tod’s while the Oct edition had Ms. Monteiro wearing a Burberry cotton blouse with Forever New leggings and sky-high Gucci booties. Jyothsna was our favorite between the two covers and while Giselli looked great, after seeing those tresses we couldn’t but help get a flashback of the Kat cover from Aug.

Which one do you prefer more?

A Sandalous Face Off

While visiting the Taj Mahal, Ms. Shetty did her match routine, wearing a pair of brown bootie sandals with a brown Prada Pitone drawstring tote. Meanwhile, at Samsaara’s preview event, Roohi paired her bootie sandals with a brown croc tote and an oversized denim shirt dress. Shilpa’s color scheme was just plain bad: the pink with the brown didn’t work at all and that bag was ghastly. As for Roohi, in theory, her outfit should work, but for some reason I don’t quite like it.

You care for either or neither?

The names might resonate with us (one for all the wrong reasons, the other for some serious envious ones), the bags don’t though. At all. You like?

Wearing a Dvf dress was Ms. Taraporewala, a socialite at a lounge’s anniversary party that happened recently. We know it’s not exactly wow-inducing/fashion-forward look but it works for a casual night out and she wears it with ease.

P.S: Below is a version of the dress.

A moment of excitement quickly turned to horror on seeing Ms. Mallis pair her Tarun Tahiliani kurta top with those leggings. Calling all figure-skaters, if you’re missing a pair, we’ve found it! 😛
