Wearing Black & White - Dia Mirza.

Dia Mirza wore a Black dress from White printed handkerchief details.

She paired the look with two toned heels and carried off the look well. The dress is by BCBG and is currently on sale online.






Having fun - Blake Lively.

Most of the great looks out there on celebs are thanks to their stylists, so its great to see Blakely (who famously does not have a stylist) having so much fun with fashion.

After sporting a soft & Edgy white look and ultra feminine red look last week, Blake rocked a fun dress from Carven. The dress had interesting details like Open front, white bustier, puffed skirts and padded shoulders. She paired the dress with two tones Christian Louboutin shoes.

Love the dress. Love the shoes. Love the look. Love. Love. Love.







Peek a boo - Emily Browning.

At the Sucker Punch UK premiere, Emily Browning's look was one of my favourites, but I somehow missed to post it along with the others.

Emily wore Azzaro navy dress with peek a boo front and crystal encrusted details. Its a clean and simple design and Emily wore it well. I just wish she had worn silver heels instead of the black shoes.



Wearing Prints - Milla Jovovich & Sonia Mehra.

With spring here, the recent sightings have been full of floral prints (not that we are complaining) and it was nice to see a different set of prints done by these two in different parts of the world.

Milla wore her grey and black abstract print shirt dress loose fitted, with tights and a tank and I say I like. The fit of the dress seemed comfortable for travel and the drape and print gave it a bit of drama.





Sonia, on the other side of the world had a very bohemian take on her print dress, the drape and the uneven hem of the dress was interesting and she added a fun element by wearing a flower accessorised headband.



Who got It right? Selena vs.Christine.

Rocking the red carpet in fresh summer whites were Christine and Selena and both had accessories that helped to add  pop of color.

Christine wore a chic white dress and carried an orange clutch which upped the style antenna seriously high. Love the way the orange popped against the white dress. Christine's clutch was Proenza Schouler Pochette.



Selena Gomez wore a feather pint front panelled organza and textured shorts from Christian Cota. She completed her look by adding turquoise sandals from Camilla Skovgaard. The addition of color was fresh and instant chic.





I think both the looks worked and the ladies wore them well.

Sari Style - Kajol.

Receiving their awards from Indian President were Kajol and Usha Uthup. They both wore Saris for the occasion and stayed true to their comfort.

Kajol wore a cobalt blue sari with golden embroidery and accessorised with drop earrings in the same color. I think she looked lovely. Going by Kajol's past choice on designers, I think the sari is a Manish Malhotra.





Usha Uthup, wore a kanjeevaram sari with heavy zari borders  which she accesossarised with her trademark bindi  and jewellery.

She shared her color palette with the President, and although Miss Uthup looked lovely, I wish she had worn another shade for that reason.

BEAUTIFULLY BLUE.... INDIA.

Last night, a group of men in Blue made history when they fought hard and won the coveted World Cup, a win that remained a dream and eluded my country for 28 long years. As part of a generation that grew up Cricket crazy, and waited for this win along with a Billion other Indians, there is no color that looks more beautiful to me today.

Last night, Blue was India's color. It was India's night and it was India's World Cup.

Congratulations!
