REAL or COVER (Anna Dello Russo VS Aishwarya Rai)

Its always unfair to compare a Magazine Cover look to a worn in real look. But then, how fair is being compared  to Anna Dello Russo after daring to wear anything worn by her?


Aishwarya Rai Bachan is featured in Vogue India cover in the same Roksanda Illincic feather shoulder Jacket first seen on Ms.Russo at Milan Fashion week. What do you think?





Anna look FIERCE. So does Ms.Rai.

However, Anna wins this for me for daring to wear this look n carrying it off with panache at a real event.

Metallics/ Sequin/Shimmer trend card

Shimmer is here to stay people! All you need  is an accent of it as part of your outfit to transform you into the belle of the ball. Its THE official 'run to' piece of every style setter out there.


Sequin and metallics are perfect party coup to glam it up - wear it as a minor accent if you arent comfortable with head to toe glitz- a shrug,shoes, clutch or a headband.


If flashbulbworthy is your style, go for a metallic dress,skirt, top or tunic. Remember to keep the rest of the look simple and let the glitter take centre stage. Shimmer basic are gold,silver or bronze but do experiment with black, white or colors as per your individual aesthetic.

Always remember metallics are of loud personality, keep the rest of the look clean and HAVE FUN.

Whole lotta Fedora Love

All through summer and ongoing winter,I have been obsessed with Fedora. I think it does everything and another yard more as an accessory. Sun or snow - as Fedora can save a bad hair day and is only second to good shampoo and blow dry.


Although done to death by every celeb and would really like to-be celebs in LA, PLEASE hang on to your fedora - its instant pizzaz and style in an instant.(did i mention protection from sun?).


check out the summer,winter and every season in between looks sported by celebs if you don't believe moi.





















I'm sold on the black. You?

Jacket on dress trend..

I came across this photo  Rachel Bilson the other day. And thought, man this girl sure knows how to put together a look thats right on the money.


Its an effortlessly stylish look, a solid jacket worn on a dress and topped with killer heels. guess who rocked the look next? SJP( not sure who wore it first though). hence the insipration to do this post.













On another note, i LOVVEE the shoes SJP is sporting. But then again, why's that a surprise!

Emilio Pucci - YUMWORTHY Spring Summer looks

Every single piece that came down the runway is totally wearable - and transfer you right to Mediterranean chic. SIGH.
