Retail Therapy


Dramatic prints aren’t for everyone, clashing prints even less so. But when done right, separates in (mis)matched prints can both help one stand out and be individualistic. Who wants to be a wall flower really?

If you have always wanted to mix prints but have been scared to, here’s an easy one, two, three. Pick something with an easy, casual vibe. Start with colors in the same family. Take black and white for instance… While the separates can be two strikingly different prints, being of the same color, will be easier to pair. When wanting to play with different colors and prints, stick to complimentary colors. Like say purple and pink! And finally, for bit of a retro spin (you know we like our vintage), pick graphic prints that are only slightly different from each other. Say polka dots with smaller dots or horizontal stripes with vertical stripes for that rad Seventies vibe.

The key to mixing prints boils down to really owning what you wear. And having fun with it! Go on, try something new this year!

In Nisha Sainani


While at a radio station to promote her upcoming movie, Huma posed for the photogs in her printed Nisha Sainani dress. Pink lip and nude ballet flats completed her look. She looked rather sweet; we like.

In Theia Couture


Priyanka picked her Lions Gold Award for best actor wearing a Theia Couture dress, one that she wore with studded Jimmy Choo pumps, victorian style earrings and a side-bun.

Loved the feminine full-skirted look on her!

You can snag a leopard version of the same dress on sale here.

In Bebe


Akshara, who makes her debut in Shamitabh, attended the trailer launch wearing a Bebe mesh dress with t-strap sandals. As gorgeous as she looked neck up, I really hope this look was more of an in-character one. If not, am rather disappointed at this seen-on-everyone-at-every-club look. It just doesn’t feel her.

Here’s hoping we see more of her inherent style in the coming weeks.

In Tarun Tahiliani


Lisa attended the Lion Gold Awards wearing a Tarun Tahiliani look that consisted of a velvet top, draped skirt and an embroidered corset-style belt.

Ms. always-in-black Haydon did wear the separates look well but I did feel underwhelmed. Bring on some color, we say!

You can shop Tarun Tahiliani here.
