Changing It Up

Comment image 46


I am a sucker for traditional designs presented with non-traditional prints which is why I am loving this polka-dot long-kurta on Ms. Balan. Quite an upgrade over the long maxi and a welcome change from anarkalis she gave us. Except, why do I have a feeling we’ll be seeing way more of these on Ms. Balan from now on? 🙂

Coming back to this appearance, you like?

  1. It’s not bad but for some reason it’s not a 10 on 10 either. I think it worked for me until I scrolled down and saw the foot wear and grey contrast to the kurta. Me no like that at all.

  2. She’s very pretty and if not anything else, i’m glad she’s being true to herself. That’s commendable considering the clones that are her colleagues.

  3. Oh ! I love it on her. Had it been somebody else I would have said OK ! but so happy for Vidya to give up her “Tents” (Anarkalis)

    I think this style suits her more than the Anarkalis…

  4. i no like. she is a movie star, for god’s sake, not some collegegoer on a budget…and some of them manage way better too. she is always underdressed, or dressed far too casually/ frumpily for a public figure. unless thats a statement she’s TRYING to make, she needs to be aware of how disappointing it is time after time after time.

    sigh.

  6. Loving everything here minus the grey churidar. that is totally out of sync with the rest of what she’s wearing. a white or black one would have made this outfit perfect. and thank heavens she let go of the anarkalis!!!

  7. Polka dots anytime are cute….but had she gone for just a knee length dress minus that dowdy grey thingy ….she would look good … she has a pretty face and defintitely has money …So Vidya please please hire a great stylist!

  8. I think she looks lovely. The grey put me off a bit but it’s not that bad. At least someone is trying to develop their own sense of style and not imitate Hollywood.

  11. Indian Girl, it is mojri I think.

    Ms. Balan often gets a lot of flak on this site. Coincidentally I happened to be reading a TOI interview of hers where she talks about the ups and downs in her life. I know this site is essentially meant for fun but it does make you think that it rarely reflects or makes allowances for real life, the bad phases where you don’t feel like dressing up or just personal preferences with regard to clothes (Ms Balan for e.g. seems to prefer Indian).

  12. isnt there some fashion rule regarding how heavy the outfit is- length, sleeve length etc. and how closed or open the shoes are? would havethought an outfit like this needs airier sandals with toes showing

  13. Guys i think this look is part of her movie promotion? Considering Abhishek was also promoting the movie Paa in the white kurta pyjamas wish HHC would at least have mentioned that she is wearing one of the costumes of the movie. It is a Sabyasachi outfit. And don’t u think it is a welcome change from the matchy matchy combo’s done to death by everyone?
    P.S that is a long buttoned down shirt which she wears open with slips in the scenes from the songs being aired on T.V.

  14. I would have given her 10/10 for the kurta and the big chunky bangles bu the grey contrast ruined the look. ://

    But I still believe that the look was a welcome change 😀

  15. I love the contrast of the grey. Hair and make-up are spot on. She is soooo beautiful and I’m really glad she sticks to her personal style.
    She looks really really good in traditional things, so I’m glad we’re not seeing her in Herve Leger, Bebe minidresses etc.
