Say ‘Namaste’

For those who like no designer-logos, simple, minimalistic design and impeccable quality, Valextra has been their go-to bag for a while. The quiet sophistication without the screaming ‘look-at-me-Iam-a-designer-bag’ and incredible functionality of their bags, not to mention quality is what draws people ‘in-the-know’ to them.

Quite the celebrity favorite across the pond, we are yet to ‘Bag Spot’ it on someone here.

This piece of luxury doesn’t come cheap though… their newest bag, the ‘Namaste‘ hobo comes with a tag of $1,680.00 (cheaper compared to other Valextra bags) and is probably one of our least favorites from the brand’s stables.

From Real Life To Runway

While most wear a piece from a new collection either the day of (like Frieda) or a day after (like Urvashi), these two ladies were spotted wearing pieces from Tarun’s Spring 2010 collection way before it was previewed on the runway.

Life is so much better when you are a star! (When it comes to clothes, that is!) 😛

We can all pretty much agree that Ms Pinto’s appearance in Missoni at the Harry Winston party a few weeks ago was less than impressive. No matter which picture you looked at, the peach silk just made her look pale. Cut to last night at the Burberry Spring 2010 presentation and Freida did much better in a yellow Burberry dress from the recent Spring 2010 collection. (Gosh, some people do have all the luck!)

Dev, on the other hand, looked like he just rolled out of bed. Considering Burberry dresses him more than Freida, you’d think he would be the better dressed one out of the two.

P.S. Freida is wearing Rupert Sanderson ‘Aspasia’ heels with the Burberry dress.

After walking Swapnil Shinde’s Spring 2010 runway, Urvashi must’ve really fallen in love with the collection and absolutely had to have one of the gowns for herself, well before anyone else… just guessing here! 🙂

Like her look from the party or wish she had worn the gold gown she wore on the runway instead?

At the ‘Kanchivaram’ success bash, Ms. Kaif was spotted in a Topshop one shouldered parrot print top that she paired with black skinny denims. While Ms. Kaif pulls the top off and the denims with ease, we wish she hadn’t worn those formal’ish drop earrings with this casual outfit. Looks like someone changed in a jiffy and forgot to switch out jewellery. 😛
