Ok so here are exclusive pics of the Kingfisher Calendar 2011 launch. Lisa looks undoubtedly stunning and must say stylist Nupur Mehta had done an absolutely stunning job.

Which one in your fav?







We are Friends

This one was actually and interesting photo and that's why its made it here.

1. Kareena Kapoor & Priyanka Chopra at the Police Show 2010. They have finally made up and seems like our suddenly getting along. While I love gossip I will not do that here and restrict it to the fashion. Priyanka yet again with a bad hair do and a bad sari while Kareena looks gorgeous in that black suit and with a red bindi.Actually I love the black & gold suit.

2. Deepika & siddharth Mallya. Ya this one is hardly a guess but again interesting pics. While you have seen Deepikas full length Halston heritage dress in the Metallic Trend alert the reason why its here is to take a closer look at her hair. Yes she does have extensions on and thank god it doesn't look as bad as it does on Priyanka.

TREND ALERT: METALLIC DRESSES

Shimmer, shine, bling, sequins... its not going to hurt your eye this xmas.
Metallic is here to scream and shout and get you noticed. It’s no big secret that metallic dresses are indeed show stoppers all by themselves, without being accompanied by accessories. Out of all of the Fall 2010 RTW collection, Balmain has taken center stage on the trend – giving many of us potential red carpet looks that may be seen on celebrities for the upcoming future. However, while many of us are not celebrities, so let’s adapt to the trend on a more modest note.

I’ve personally got my eyes fully in tune with this season’s trend in addition to my personal taste. Ok, so I’ve given you a snippet of a few of my favorite metallic dresses for the upcoming fall. Here are those celebs who've worn it effortlessly. Paris ofcourse is synonymous with all things bling sow e have many pictures of her.

Many high street brands like Mango, F21, French Connection all have them and in great styles. My favourite is the Mango dress on Scarlett.

Mad Men Series: A fashion Inspiration

So every body’s talking Mad Men and I have to admit its part of my inspiration list as well.
The show’s early 1960s set and costumes are enough to make even the most forward-thinking men and women swoon. Stopping by the official show’s website, I discovered a treasure trove of pictures from the seasons’ stunning costumes alongside commentary by
Mad Men Costume Designer Janie Byrant. So I had to share: we’ve repurposed these pictures and comments by Janie as she describes the era, the characters, and the delights of being the Costume Designer for one of the hottest shows of the 21st century.

Not like the writing and acting and directing already make the show incredible, but head costume designer Janie Bryant truly knows how to round out the storytelling with the outfits she chooses for each character based on their story arc. "Everyone thinks that Janie’s job consists of picking cool clothes, but she’s really a storyteller. She cares about who the character is and what we are trying to say about them.

The leading ladies are now fashion icons and are bringing feminine & sexy back. You got to have those curves to really carry the Mad Men look.
I love the grace and sophistication that just flows through all the pieces making it so effortlessly stylish!

By the early sixties, dress styles from the 1950s had exhausted all the possible bodice and skirt combinations. Features of this era included covered wide belts, halter necks, swathed draped slim sheaths or full skirts and both silhouettes used bold floribunda - tea and cabbage roses.

Fashion designers today are already raiding the archives of this show to woo young fashionistas across the globe. Let not all the pretty costumes take away from the drama in the make up and hair.

Why I am reminded of Aisha and Sonam Kapoor so much






































CARVED IN MARBLE: AISWARIYA RAI AT LONGINES PRESS CONFERENCE

Ya thats how people relate to the this beauty and I vehemently disagree. Yes she is cold, with no warmth, love or fun that she exudes.

Aishwariya was at the Longines Press Conference in Paris and wish we could see some warmth in the Parisian winter
