Long And Short Of It

The longer kurta gave way to a shorter white one and the colorful beads were traded for turquoise ones. Question is, are we liking the new look better or do we still want those jammies confined to her house, forever.

On an aside, how fun is that bag. 😛

Changing Colors

Seeing Ms. Zinta in a non-red outfit has us wondering whether she ditched the trademark-red-at-auction look (see here) because her team hadn’t done well the last two seasons. Either ways, while I loved the houndstooth-print dress and the jacket separately, I didn’t like them together. If the dress had had a v-neck or if Ms. Z had worn some sort of necklace to cover up the top part, I would’ve liked the pairing.

Thanks ‘blue’ for the full-length image tip-off.

In Hervé Léger?

At first glance, I could’ve sworn that model Prashita was wearing a Léger and considering everyone gravitates towards the bandage versions, I was pleasantly surprised to see her go for a non-bandage one. Except the more I compare the runway version with hers, the more differences I find. 🙁 (FYI, while runway pieces are sometimes modified when they reach stores, never seen a Léger that was.)

Ms. Puri’s been sporting a new hairstyle and while I don’t like it, I do think it could have been styled better to go with this dress. Oh, and how could I forget the satin shoes. If I had my way, pink satin monochromatic shoes would only be seen on ballerinas.

Delhi socialite Neeva Jain wears a Fall 2009 Stella McCartney dress with pointed boots, mimicking the runway look except that instead of wearing the thigh-high boots she goes for regular below-knee ones. Considering the dress falls above the knee, would have much preferred it if she had worn the dress with tights and pumps and skipped the shawl. It distracts from the bow-tie detail of the dress.
