Twice Bitten, Still Not Shy

The moment I saw this top from Nalannda’s collection (presented in Oct 2009), I knew I had already seen it somewhere. Turns out I wasn’t wrong at all. Evidence: Audrina wearing the Karina top in July of 2009! 😛

Last time her excuse was (according to Mid-day) that “she might have seen it in a magazine and the pattern must have ingrained in her head”. Wonder what her excuse is this time? 😛

Catch her previous infractions here and here.

On an ideal day, we wouldn’t instantly go gaga about that orange suit (not that it is bad, I quite like it), but after one-too-many lackluster appearances in black, you can’t blame us for liking the suit just because it was a different color.

The big hair on Amrita helped distract from the gown (it also helped that half the gown was hidden) but with Yuvika there is no respite.
Does anyone else feeling like cutting off that choker detail and handing the lady a nice necklace. It wouldn’t save the look but would have made the appearance a tad bit better. And by tad, we mean a teeny tiny tad.

We may not like the snake-skin print much (which found a fan in Sophie too) but who cares, it is just wonderful to see Lisa out and about!

Our prayers and wishes are always with her! Catch Lisa’s blog where she writes about her fight with Multiple Myeloma here.
