While the Bachchans steered clear of velvet (well almost), Jacqueline went the Bachchan way in a red velvet Dior gown. With a material this iffy, what the gown didn’t need was the odd off-center drape.
We didn’t like. You?

The yummy mummy of two, Karisma features in the Jan 2011 edition of Harper’s Bazaar shot by photographer Suresh Natarajan at the Taj Falaknuma Palace. Love the Chanel on her but the big hair that is is very reminiscent of Twinkle feels too dated and Dynasty-esque.

What about talk that her Mumbai sensibilities never quite adjusted to Delhi? “Honestly, that’s absolutely not true,” Karisma denies. “I love Delhi. I think it’s a wonderful city; the spaces are wonderful. I’ve been in and out of Delhi for so long now that I honestly really, really like Delhi. And now I’ve made two-three good friends too. And the food in Delhi… You can’t beat the food there.” If she weren’t so proper I’d accuse her of salivating.
You can change the spelling but you can’t take the Kapoor out of the girl. And Karisma, like the rest of her famous filmi family, loves her food. “I like to endorse healthy living,” she says. “Don’t deny yourself. I’m going to eat French fries now. I’m not just going to be on fruit juice and salads. That’s the wrong way. Eat and lose weight. Do everything in moderation in your life, and it’ll all work out. And frankly, that’s what I’ve done.” So she enjoyed her pregnancies to the max, put on 23kg while carrying her son and then lost it. This, despite the fact that she hates working out. And yoga. “I know yoga is amazing, but I just don’t have the patience. So I work out. I like to gym, I love to walk, I like the natural options.”

I picked this Spring 2010 look for Soniya but turns out that Neha stole it for the event. Well, half of it anyways. Instead of going with the silk lace skirt, Neha opted for black harem pants which I don’t mind but I really wish she had pulled the hair back into a pony. The red lips then would’ve made for a fierce look! (And showed off the sheer part more.)

I really like the idea of pairing the grey halter top with black leggings, but I am not crazy about the whole leather (pleather?) shiny aspect of it. Add to that the clashing purple Dior clutch and the Loubs and the look as a whole just doesn’t come together. This is a Not Quite for moi. For you?

Af first glance, I wasn’t sure about Freida’s light-weight makeup because she looked washed out. But, after looking at the close-ups, I changed my mind. She looks so fresh and the makeup complements the chiffon gown so well. Love it.
