Celeb Travel Style - Avantika Malik & Deepika Padukone.


Avantika and Deepika were spotted at Mumbai airport, back from F1 in Delhi.

Avantika wore a dark Pink dress which she paired with strappy platforms and an Orange Bottega braided hobo.

Deepika was every bit a star in a buttoned up White lace dress. The flats, Aviators and - what seems to be her to go  Bag - TOD's D completed her look. Deepika has been having a few style changes for the better, first the Burberry lace trench at the races and now this, new stylist? FAB!

See who else was spotted with the same bag travelling last week?

In Jason Wu - Fan Bingbing.

Its been a while since I have posted a Fan Bingbing appearance, out of sheer laziness.

This one was too good to resist, Fan brought her A - game to the Red carpet when she wore this Jason Wu ensemble - which she paired with embellished accessories. I like the cleaner lines, a far cry from her usual larger than life red carpet choices.


Celebs at F1, Round up - 2, Preity Zinta & Avantika Malik.

Both Avantika and Preity opted to wear black to the F1 after party, wish we had full length pictures to see how they finished off their looks.

Although I think Preity looked good, I just couldn't get head to understand those gloves she had on. I'm not too excited about her dress, but going with Avantika on this one.

Are you following VW on Twitter?

update : full length pics.



Ugly Betty No More? America Ferrera.

Anyone who ever saw America Ferrera and thought of her as a style hot mess on the show should take a peep at this photo. I mean, how do you go from there to here?

Attending a nightime talk show, she looked stunning in a fitted Nicole Miller sheath, both the color and the fit making her look divine. Without a doubt, this is the best I have ever seen her look.



Celebs at F1, Round up - 1, Deepika Padukone.

At the F1 after party, Deepika wore a white sequin mini dress, which she paired with nude heels and red lips.

On this look alone she looked fabulous, but so close in heels of her GQ appearance in the same lines (White sequin gown, red lips, the hair do and case clutch) this look inspires a very strong déjà vu.

Right - Deepika at GQ Men of the Year Awards.



Celebs at F1, Round up 1 - Sonam Kapoor.

Sonam dazzled at the F1 after party in Delhi, dressed in a studded one shoulder DVF gown.

The stunning gown with all over embellishments details were styled to perfection, an uber sleek chignon with side parting ( sooo trending now) and crimson lips.

Accessories included a case clutch and leaf motif earrings. FAB!

Celebs at F1, Round up - 1, Bipasha Basu.

It was a Shane and Falguni Peacock tangerine dress for Bipasha at the F1 after party.

The smoking hot dress with a side slit needed some edgy styling; imagine what would a pulled back hair, smoky eyes with nude lips and a pair of Camila Skovgaard heels would have done to her!

SIGH.

Celebs at F1, Round up 1 - Bhavna Pandey.

Attending the FI After party along with a bevy of celebs was Bhavna Pandey, obviously redeeming from last night's look.

Bhavna wore a strapless dark pink dress (from Dolce & Gabbana?), paired with gold accessories. The silhouette and the color works for her, LIKE.

Deepika Padukone at F1 , New Delhi.

Attending India's F1in style was Deepika Padukone, dressed in a lace trench as a dress.

Deepika's fitted Burberry trench worn as a dress was paired with taupe TOD's D bag and pulled back  sleek ponytail and sunglasses. Quite Chic!


Party Girl! Preity Zinta.

Preity Zinta for me was the best dressed of last night's party goers.

In a black top with metal stripes (Balmain?) top worn one shouldered, leather pants and peep toe platform heels Preity gave off some serious rocker vibes, digging the gold layered neckpiece and the metallic clutch.


The Antonio Berardi week that was!

Last week saw five Antonio Berardi sightings and I’m in heaven. Ever since I saw Gwyneth Paltrow last year at the Givenchy dinner in one of his designs, I have been head over heels and it seems like half of Hollywood is, too.

Amongst all the ladies that chose to wear him last week, do you have a fav?

Mine are Eva, SJP and the first Zoe pic.

Totally digging Zoe's Barbara Bui heels and SJP's Manolo Blahniks.

Lap Budhha Party Round up - Bhavana Pandey and Nida mehmood.


Bhavana wore a nude illusion dress with black panel details and paired it with a Dior clutch. Aside from the clutch, the look did her no favours.

Nida worked her kitsch style in a signature quirky way , wearing her own label must have added to the fun. Like the flower addition as well.

In Emilio Pucci - Rosie Huntington Whiteley.

Two things made me take a second look about Rosie in this picture.

1. This is the most covered up I have ever seen the supermodel on the red carpet, ever.
2. With the below the knee length, full sleeves, closed neckline and hair pulled back, how smashingly sexy did she look.

As they say, you either have it or you don’t.



WHAT WAS SHE THINKING!?!

At the Lap Budhha Party in New Delhi, Joey Mathews was trending all things currently trending in the fashion circuit.

Printed mini with belted waist - check
Mary Janes - Check
Self printed stockings - Check
Metallic cuff - Check
Red lips - Check
Bright tote - Check.

Wearing them all of them at once?! Did she have to feel like wearing all of her new wardrobes in one go?





And this is before I even got to the fur.

Ralph Lauren Gala - Stunners.


Of the bevy of stars who attended Ralph Lauren gala, none stood out for me better than Camilla Belle and Kerry Washington.

Both their looks were perfection in red carpet, from their stunning gowns to flawless styling. Camilla Belle never looked so beautiful before IMO, the sleek pinned up hair, punchy pink lips with the gown with sheer neckline and dramatic details were one for the books.

Kerry channelled Egyptian Goddess in an attention grabbing neckline and column sequin gown. Her make up and hair was pure perfection.

BIG LOVE.





Dotted! Ameesha Patel & Amrita Arora.


As far as the looks went, the similarity ended strictly at the polka dots.

Amrita looked instant chic in her black polka dotted top (Zara?) which she belted at the waist and paired with skinny denims and black Louboutin heels.

Ameesha tried the cutsie look - only that it didn’t work - between the strapless top with frill details and shorts (thumb rule when going short - go short below, cover up on top) it was a look that just didn't work, not for me.

Amrita is carrying a Stella McCartney bag with chain link; I love how she managed to make simple denims and top combo chic.

In Christian Dior Couture - Andrea Riseborough.


At the BFI London Film Festival, actress Andrea Riseborough brought drama to the red carpet in a stunning Dior couture gown.

I like how at ease she was walking the red carpet, and how effortlessly she seems to have carried the drama. Love the silhouette of the gown.


Suzzane Roshan & Anu Dewan at LAP Budhh Afterparty, New Delhi.


With the FI fever in New Delhi soaring up, the number of celeb sightings in the after party scene has begun.

Anu Dewan & Suzzanne Roshan attended the LAP Budhh bash, dressed in pieces from the very successful collections of Dolce & Gabbana and Gucci, modified the outfits from the way they were presented.

Anu wore Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2011, added a black shrug to her corset -esque top and I think she looked good. Suzanne wore the very famed Gucci S2011, and chose to skip the belt.

The gold belt with tassel has been one of the highlight of the entire collection, bringing in glam and cohesiveness to the pieces and I do not get her choice to go sans it. Minus the belt, the outfit looked a bit blah and does take away a lot from the look.

We don't have full length pics, but wanna bet Suzzane wore golden heels and Anu black pumps?

Instant Love! Leelee Sobieski in Jill Sander.

Dayum!

Leelee Sobieski walked The Fashion Group International event last evening dressed in Jill Sander Spring 2012. For all I care, she may as well have rolled up the carpet and taken it home, coz she totally owned it.

The navy blue top and brown wide skirt combo is such a fashion risk on a lesser mortal and could have gone terribly wrong, but Leelee looks fierce and pulled it off.

I love that she kept true to the minimalistic Jill Sander aesthetic by keeping the look fuss free, the pulled back hair and the pop pink on the lips complimenting the overall look.

FAB!



Doing Traditional! Sophie Chowdry.

So far, of all the Diwali celeb sightings, we have had plenty of colors and for this reason Sophie's look stood out.

Not opting for bright colors, the green palette with black and gold Anarkali looked good on her, paired with golden sandals and Jhumkis.

Sophie is wearing Sabyasachi Mukherjee and is carrying a BV knot clutch.

In All Saints - Sandra Bullock.

Sandra Bullock's star power is such, that one is happy to see her on the red carpet, that style check takes a back seat.

Not that she fares bad in that department, the golden embellished All Saints dress paired with oversized black blazer and smoky eye make up is bang on trend. A carefully arranged messy knot hair, metallic clutch and layered bangles completed her look.

Not digging the choice footwear so much, but how fantastic does she look!



Going Gaga! Lady Gaga in New Delhi.


Attending a press conference in Delhi, India, Gaga kicked off her India appearances and as far as gaga sightings go, this one wasn't bad.


Gaga seems to have pulled down the drama factor for India, the look was almost demure, channelling some retro Hollywood glam. Dressed in a one shoulder water color print Naeem Khan gown and some jaw dropping bling for company, gaga kept her penchant for drama alive through the multicolored buns hairdo.

In Manish Malhotra - Kareena Kapoor.


At the unveiling of her wax figure at Madame Tussauds, Kareena chose a Manish Malhotra sari, no surprises there.

What made this look work and make Kareena look graceful and elegant was replacing the bikini blouse with a contrasting quarter sleeve blouse. I loved that she paired the sari with jhumki inspired drop earrings and went sans neck piece.

It’s a beautiful look from the actress.


FAB! Nicole Richie.

Love the dress, love the print, and love the styling.


Gamine Fab! Haseena Jetmalani.

Not sure how I missed posting this one earlier.

Off shoulder worn dress with bell sleeves and hoards of lace detailing isn’t easy to sport, especially in Mumbai.

 Haseena manages to come off looking great, with the pairing of low slung tan belt, chanel quilted chain bag and nude peep toes, its a look that’s riding well thanks to the wearer's ability to carry it off.






Oh No! She didn't! Salma Hayek.

It’s no secret that Salma Hayek loves to sport an Alexander McQueen. And that she has access to the best of labels and stylists.

The fashion's first lady (sort of, if you consider the number of the labels Gucci owns) should have then better prepped for the flashbulbs, no?




Not going to the rest of the look, since she lost me at the dress.


Ektaa Kapoor's Diwali Bash Round Up.

Do you dig any of these celeb traditional style?
