At Elle’s 25th Anniversary event, Padma kept it simple and shimmery in a sequin Naeem Khan gown from the Fall 2008 collection. I wish her version had either the low neck or the low back. Both together feel a bit too much as do the wire bracelets on both hands.

At the Kingfisher Calendar Girl Hunt event, Deepika gave us a dressed up look and a dressed down look. Don’t care for the draped dress much, but loving the white shirred Ayesha Depala on her. A lot! You?

Why is it not a surprise to see Mallika back to wearing her favorite kind of gown. And by that we mean a gown that has cutouts and that which draws attention to the twins glaringly. Don’t get us wrong, we are all about being loud and proud about what you’ve got but this gown wasn’t the best example.

We know she can do so much better and we’ve seen it too this year at Cannes.

Here’s hoping the next set of appearances are much better.

Two appearances that could’ve been great looks become Almosts. Kadambari looked fabulous in the French Connection bandage dress and the gold necklace was a great addition but those sandals cut off the legs oh-so-unflatteringly.

We love the French Connection Dandy Voile dress but on Achala the whole look misfired thanks to the blingy gold clutch.

How we wished Kadambari had picked pumps and Achala, a black clutch.

Major Brands (a group that operates Mango, Promod, Aldo and more in India) held two fashion shows with Malaika walking for them in Mumbai and Shruti Hassan in Hyderbad. Coincidentally, both wore strapless dresses with sideswept hair and the same pair of Aldo sandals.

Uncanny, how similar they look. And we aren’t just talking about the styling!
