The ‘Fab-To-Drab’ Face Off

July 27th, 2008 at 10:33 pm . by Priyanka

Bhavna Sharma went from retro-kitsch to just plain ‘Wthey’ while Sabina Chopra went from restrained sophistication to, also, just plain ‘Wthey’… But the question is, who had the bigger ‘fab-to-drab’ moment?

Funky Fresh Or Flunking The Funk?

July 16th, 2008 at 12:43 am . by Payal

“Jen” asked whether Nina’s boots were funky or belonged more on a WTHeyyy post…

We loved her style, but what say you?

Bag Spotting

July 15th, 2008 at 10:38 pm . by Payal

I may not have liked her flip flop look but I absolutely loved the Manish Arora bag that Ms. Zinta was carrying at the Olive launch. The bag has the mudra print also seen on one of the shirts showcased in Manish Arora’s Spring 2008 collection.

Print. Or Not?

July 9th, 2008 at 3:28 am . by Priyanka

The Sabyasachi dress that Sabina wore couple of months ago was alright but she wore it well and that made all the difference. This time around spotted her in an all black ensemble, accentuated with color in way of accessories; a far cry from the previous print and color that she had donned on… and we loved it.

The LBD is our pick, the edited accessories and pulled back hair elevated the look… she looked great… you agree?

Dressed Down

July 8th, 2008 at 8:05 pm . by Payal

Preity Zinta attended the Olive launch dressed way way down in a Kings XI Punjab t-shirt, denim capris and flip flops. Wearing a team t-shirt considering that the IPL series is over seemed quite out of place but I still think she looks good. (Can you ever go wrong with black and denims…)

But flip-flops to a restaurant launch? Acceptable or not?

AD Does A Rohit

Shekhar’s attempt at the jodhpur look was quite a disaster but restaurateur AD Singh did way better than Shekhar. He wore his well-fitted white jodhpurs with black, a colo combo we have seen so many times on Rohit Bal.

Who pulls it off better between these two (AD and Rohit)?

Another Phase?

First, it was the leggings phase (as seen here, here, here and here)… and now it seems its the turn of easy black dresses paired with contrasting jackets, chunky shoes and statement jewelry…

When It Works Not

July 7th, 2008 at 8:45 pm . by Priyanka

The bed-head hair, the jeweled buckled belt, the sleeves, the oversized clutch, none of it seems to be working for us!
