Celeb Travel Style - Bipasha Basu & Sonam Kapoor.

Snapped at the airport on their return from Dubai première of their movie ' Players'(more on those red carpet looks later) were Bipasha and Sonam.

I liked both the travel styles, Bipasha's white top and fitted blue denim look with embellished heels made the look colorful and sonam's layered look ( the gold top worn over white shirt is clever ) jazzed up the white and denim combo.

Red Carpet Style - Rooney Mara.

Rooney Mara continues being a breath of fresh air on the red carpet with her fashion choices.

At the Paris and Madrid premier's of her movie ' The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo', the actress made appearances in Louis Vuitton Spring and Rodarte.

The LBD was stunning in its detailing and as usual, Rooney kept the styling to minimum - the red lips providing a pop of color. The Rodarte dotted halter gown was dreamy, and the sleek hair complimenting the overall look.

Clearly, being edgy and minimalistic chic is Rooney's forte.

Best of Bollywood Fashion 2011 - Break out Fashionista.

Bollywood fashion scene started off with some promising faces - but none stood out like Poorna Jagannathan.

With a strong sense of personal style with unapologetic lack of bollywood influence and absolutely  non - confirming to the existing mainstream fashion norms, Poorna was the breakthrough fashionista for Vanilla Whiff for the year 2011.

 I'm going to have an eye out for her in 2012.

Celeb Street Style - SJP, Amanda Heard, Rosie Huntington Whiteley & Kate Beckinsale.

 What with the end of the year bring zilch red carpet sightings, we still got glimpses of celeb style, thanks to their off duty sightings.

Whose style does your personal style match?

a, the casual cuffed jeans and neutral cardigan spiced up by animal print scarf?
b, lace top, distressed jeans paired with a trench a la Amanda Heard style?
c, SJP's downtown chic ensemble of leather jacket, volume skirt worn with tights and a top knot?
d, Kate' s uptown look of  sweater, denims + scarf and elegant up do?

Sonam Kapoor at 'Players' promotions.

Sonam has been on a whirlwind of promotional tours for her movie 'Players'. Sartorially, the actress gave us plenty of eye full.

Loved the Atsu outfit (juxtaposition between abstract lines on the skirt with cheery floral top) followed by Dolce & Gabbana.

Sari Style.

I was glad to have a few traditional sari sighting before the year ended.

Hema Malini and former South Indian actresses Lissy and Poornima ensured that I had my fill of red silks. Even with the monogrammed LV, I think Lissy looked absolutely gorgeous, and the addition of jhumkis upgrading the look.

Changing it up! Chitrangada Singh.

At the Maxim Issue Launch, Chitrangada changed up things a bit in way of styling. This look got me interested for two reasons.

After what seems like gazillion glammed up looks for the promotion of 'Desi Boyz' its good to see the actress don a different silhouette. And I love the bouffant hair do and strong make up. Good to see that she is having fun with fashion. Who would have thought I'd say that about a Gauri and Nainika outfit!
