Corporate Fashion Inspiration from Bollywood

Corporate Fashion Inspiration from Bollywood

By Nidhal

Chances are you would have been at your wits end when it comes to zeroing in on the ideal outfit for office at some point of your life. It is not school where everyone has to wear a uniform. It is not college where you have complete volition to try out whatever you’d like to be it- the ethnic kurta, the grungy rock star attire with a bandana or your go-to long skirt teamed with a tank top. Office calls for a change in your wardrobe, doesn’t it? So, why not glance at the best corporate/office looks that Tinsel-town ladies carried in panache and borrow some?

1. KAREENA KAPOOR KHAN- In a film whose immanent theme was role reversal ‘Ki and Ka’, Kareena played Kiya- the head honcho of a multinational company. Swaddled in the most chic and comfortable one-pieces (not gaudy or revealing ones) with cropped blazers that makes the entire looks trendy as well as professional. Kudos! Mrs. Khan.

2. SONAM KAPOOR – The Fashionista of Bollywood- Sonam Kapoor cannot be left behind when it comes to making waves with her effortless fashion style. Seen here is Sonam decked in black and white formals that are teamed with a pair of goggles that give a nerdy and chic look. Her mane let loose might look prepossessing but according to me that is the last thing any lady with a corporate job should go for. Reason? It will stick around with things/your body the moment you step out of an air-conditioned room and entangle with objects thereby break. So, the bottom line is to borrow ideas practically.

3. ALIA BHATT –Inarguably she displays the most eclectic range of ethnic office attire. Seen here is Alia swaddled in a plain black kurta with a pink Chinese collar and dupatta. This is from the scene where she is seen during a presentation in the movie – 2 States. For those ladies who are neither fond nor comfortable with sporting western office attire, sporting such plain kurtis comes across as a viable option.

4. KATRINA KAIF- She looked picture perfect in Fitoor. Not many can carry off red hair well and she looks dreamy with that fiery colour on her tresses! Seen here is Katrina (who essayed the role of Firdaus Jaan Naqvi in Fitoor) swaddled in atypical Western office attire but with a casual twist. The rolled up sleeves and slightly plunging neckline that doesn’t look risqué, makes it inimitable.

5. DEEPIKA PADUKONE- My vote for the best office/corporate attire to come out from Bollywood has to be from Deepika in Piku. Keeping the weather in mind, Deepika opts for a traditional fabric kurta with palazzo pants and mojris. Her accessories include bags, sunglasses, earrings and a scarf. The palazzo pants make sure that the fabric does not stick to one’s body and discomfit a person during our infamous sweltering summers.

6. PRIYANKA CHOPRA- And the Quantico girl arrives on the list and how! Shown to be working for Verve magazine in Dostana, PeeCee’s look had to be glamourous, chic and dramatic- something not usually associated with the minimalistic looks we see in conventional office jobs. As a result, she swaddled herself in bright dramatic outfits that looked apt with the field she was shown to be in- fashion.

7. DEEPIKA PADUKONE- We can’t help it if the lady has it in her to get a second feature in the list. Deepika Padukone, in the early days of her career essayed the role of a corporate employee in Kartik Calling Kartik. Shown to be a woman of today, her look was kept minimal and sophisticated. With soft curls cascading down her shoulders, she sported simple sleeveless white shirts teaming them up with a black figure-hugging skirt.

Editors’ Note: I loved Katrina in Fitoor and Deepika in Piku 

Which look did you like the most?

OOTD: Red & White Flared Midi Dress

OOTD: Red & White Flared Midi Dress

Hi guys,

Another OOTD for you. I love midi dresses, especially these flared kinds. They look very flattering on all body types.

White and Red is one of my favourite combination, this dress had red abstract print on white base. It’s from Dainty Jewells. They have a beautiful collection of dresses, available in a large variety of sizes. Also a lot of bridesmaid dresses.

I paired it with my gold watch, tan sling and nude strappy heels. Since the dress was bright enough, I kept the accessories neutral as otherwise the colors would clash and be too loud.

Dress: Dainty Jewells
Heels: Zara
Bag, Watch: Michael Kors
Earrings: House of Tuhina

On my Lips: Maybelline Lip Gradation Red2
On my nails: Nykaa Matte Nail Paint in Black Cherry Pie

OOTD: White & Blue Embellished Gown

OOTD: White & Blue Embellished Gown

Hi guys,

I know I haven’t done an OOTD here since a long time, that’s coz of Instagram! Yes, I usually post my OOTD’s and outfit pics with details there, so you don’t see many OOTD’s here on the blog. If you want to see my regular OOTD’s, follow me on Instagram @bhumika_t

I did a special shoot for 3 outfits recently and hence I made sure I post it on the blog and not just Instagram.

I had this dress since quite some time now, but due to monsoons or some or the other event, I couldn’t get to shoot in this. Also since the material is raw silk, it gets crinkled super easily. This shoot was right after I had got this from ironing and still it has crinkled :/

Failed attempt at twirling

But nonetheless, it is also the material which is very comfortable and looks really nice! Love the silhouette.

I love the sleeves and the gold embellishment work on the sleeves. This dress is from a Kolkata based brand Mada Sasa. They make customized fusion wear like drapes, gowns, kurtis, tunics, etc. Also they make it in your customized sizing as per the measurements given. Check out more on www.madasasa.com or their facebook page HERE

I paired it with my nude Zara strappy heels, a cocktail ring, fusion bracelet and a gold clutch.

Dress: Mada Sasa
Heels: Zara
Ring: Eesha Zaveri
Bracelet: House of Tuhina
Earrings: Dang
Clutch: Gift from Kerastase

Bollywood Ladies Who Dazzle in Swimsuits

Bollywood Ladies Who Dazzle in Swimsuits

By Nidhal

Remember the previous post on Bollywood ladies who sizzle in bikinis? Weren’t you left slobbering, drooling and wanting for more? The ladies certainly sported bikinis with enormous aplomb, confidence and a sense of pride in their bodies that one couldn’t help but have their heartbeats race at a pace most F1 racers would be put to shame. So here you with a brief rundown of those Bollywood Ladies whose swimsuit avatars have been the most graceful, tasteful and magnetic of all.

1. KATRINA KAIF- If you thought her abs in Kala Chashma were a treat to your eyes, think again! The lady’s got more to soothe your eyes. Her pink swimsuit avatar in Sau Aasmaano song from Baar Baar Dekho gives one a no-holds barred view of her sculpted sun-kissed body as she saunters on the picturesque beaches in the song. Katrina Kaif donned a pink swimsuit in Baar Baar Dekho and made sure that she brought a carefree and laidback attitude to an otherwise sultry swimsuit.

2. PRIYANKA CHOPRA- Priyanka Chopra, PC for short ensured that the temperature on the beaches of Miami increased by a few notches when she strutted in a shimmery golden swimsuit in Dostana. What I can say for certain is that cine-goers back home had their jaws drop in awe.

3. SHILPA SHETTY- And here comes another Dostana girl! Shilpa Shetty Kundra has a body sculpted to perfection. Period. But when she swaddles herself in an itsy-bitsy swimsuit while grooving to the tunes of ‘Shut Up and Bounce’ all you can do is look at her unblinkingly while controlling yourself from slobbering.

4. SHRADHHA KAPOOR- Her face and frame both bill her as a typical happy-go- lucky, effervescent and exuberant girl-next- door whom you would have always wanted to ask out for a date but couldn’t summon the courage to. But when the livewire Shraddha sports a swimsuit (with an enviable bralette) not only do you get an impetus to modify your beach wardrobe majorly but also you are left gasping for more.

5. KIARA ADVANI- The Fugly actress ensured that she took all her fans by surprise as she posed in a black swimsuit for the magazine cover of Maxim India February 2015. Kiara Advani’s sensual avatar here certainly grabs one’s eyeballs.

6. ESHA GUPTA- The Desi Angelina Jolie- Esha Gupta oozed seduction, magnetism and appeal as she swaddled herself in an itsy-bitsy swimsuit for Elle Magazine. The cover of the magazine reads “Esha Gupta in summer’s sexiest swimwear”. After having a look at it, one cannot help but nod almost hypnotically in approval.

7. JACQUELINE FERNANDEZ- Sri Lankan import and former beauty queen- Jacqueline Fernandez unleashed her sensual and sultry facet as she sent the carnal interests of one and all into a tizzy with her audacious and alluring swimsuit appearances in Murder 2. She certainly raised the visual appeal of the thriller by a few notches, we say!

Editor’s Note: I saw the movie yesterday and Katrina looked fab, the only good thing to see in the terrible movie :p She looked mesmerizing in that hot pink bikini with voluminous, blow dried hair and that tan! Also Esha Gupta and Shilpa Shetty can rock anything! Super hot bods! Agree on PC too, that gold bikini scene is unforgettable 😀

The Fashion Trend – Kurti

The Fashion Trend – Kurti

By Sanchita

Introduction –

Hello everyone,

Online Shopping is in full swing these days, and with the amount of discounts and sales, it also turns out to be very lucrative!

When it comes to the well-defined ‘Indian wear’, the first thing that comes to our mind while walking towards the closet is Kurti. This fashion trend never goes off and one of the best smart casual wear. In fact, Kurtis are so versatile that you can wear them for college, office, family events, day-out, party wear and literally every way you prefer.

Kurtis can be made adaptable with various styles like short or medium length, from various materials of cloth and the embroidery as well. thus, the exclusive designs, elaborate patterns, various hues and appealing shades blended with western as well as Indian styles has made Kurti so popular as a fashion trend. There are various reason to love them, different ways to pair them up and the hacks and style quotients – which we are going to elaborate in this post. Read on to know more about it.

Why women love wearing Kurti?

• The first and foremost reason is the comfort factor. Imagine wearing an exquisite outfit but it literally takes your life away because you are not comfortable in it. There things will never happen to a Kurti because they are the most comfortable outfit that it kept in your closet. When comfort and fashion is blended in an outfit – nothing can beat the beauty of it.

• Like I have mentioned before – Kurti can be worn to innumerable occasions and thus you can simply style it the way you want.

• Accessories – this is another advantage in which you can wear a single Kurti several times and each time you can accessorize it and make it look new. While going traditionally Indian, pair it up with bindi and bangles. For the casual look, use a choker or a simple pendant, for some layering, use a scarf and you can also add a layer of traditional jacket on top. Kurt can also be paired up with waistcoats for office and formal wear.

• Kurtis are pocket friendly. This is one of the most important reason. It is literally not possible to shell out big bucks on designer clothes every time and for casual and funky wear, opt for Kurti readily available in the marketplace. Various Kurtis in different shades, styles and cut are available both online and offline.

• Kurtis can be paired up with various ways and styles which we are going to discuss later in the post. This is why Kurtis are worn by every girl out there and are so much loved and accepted.

Style Trend and Fashion Quotient on Kurti –

Regular Style Kurti – This is probably the most common style of Kurti available in the market. It has the Chinese collar and also known as the princess cut Kurti. It is generally paired up with contrast leggings, treggings, churidar, skinny jeans or jeggings.

Anarkali Kurti – Anarkali Kurtis are the long flowing ones which reaches up to the ankle or knee as per the style and occasion. It is a perfect pick if you have a body shape of Hourglass, Pear, Rectangle and Apple. The styles are extremely ethnic and soothing.

A-line Kurti – these kind of Kurtis are extremely popular for trendy casual wear.The cut reaches to the calf or ankle and it has flare from the waist for making ‘A’ shaped panel. These are best for Apple shaped body and Pear shaped body type.

Trail cut Kurti – Trail cut Kurtis are extremely easy to carry. They have a C-cuts on both the sides and the material should be flattering like georgette, chiffon, silk and not cotton.

Dhoti Style – This is one of the newest trend in Kurti where the typical Kurti is cut in a contemporary style and it is so comfortable to wear in summer and monsoon. In this pattern, the lower portion of the material is cut in drape style and flatters feminine curves so graciously. This style can be worn by all body shapes.

Short Kurti – if you want something casual, opt for short Kurti which looks very similar to tops and tunics. This is a perfect casual wear and has a blend of Indo-western touch to it. Thus, you can pair it up with jeggings, jeans or even colored pants as well.

Gown Length Kurti – this kind of Kurtis has a rich feel of Indian traditional look and has been worn by various celebrities on the red carpet in India and abroad. It is very similar to Anarkali ones but reaches up to the floor length. A basic leggings would suffice to complete the royal look with detailed jewelry.

Side Slit Kurti – One of the hottest trend of 2016 is the side slit Kurti. These Kurtis are basically long and straight in cut with lengthy slit from the waist. The length of the Kurti reaches up to the knee or beyond and you have to pair it up to with an elaborate leggings or pants. They are extremely fancy and easy to carry off.

Shirt Kurti – The Shirt Kurti is very similar to the shirt dress. The collar of the Kurti resembles of a formal shirt. This style is a fusion of Indian and western trend and a great choice for the office wardrobe. You can also accessorize it with belts and jackets.

High Low Kurti – Just like we drool over the High-low dress, the High-low Kurti is also in great demand. In this type of Kurti, the front hem is shorter compared to the back. The style adds so much grace and elegance to the outfit and best paired with treggings, jeggings, and skinny jeans.

Kaftan Style – There are days when we prefer ultra-casual and comfortable outfits yet wants to look pretty and sophisticated. The Kaftan inspired Kurtis are the best possible options and can be paired up with treggings, jeggings, skinny jeans and even full tight slacks. The Kurti is also worn short and long as per your choice.

The different ways to team up the Kurti –

With Leggings – This is a very common style in which we generally pair up the Kurti with a color matching or contrasting legging. Leggings are extremely comfortable to wear and are easily available as well. There are different colored leggings, printed leggings, leggings with sheer paneling, and so on to match your style.

With Jeggings and Skinny Jeans – Jeggings and skinny jeans are totally rage now a days and it is a great way to pair up with Kurti. You can wear your favorite Kurti with your fitted jeggings or jeans for college or office wear. This looks casual and stylish at the same time.

With Shorts – Remember Alia Bhatt in 2 States? It was an absolute delight to watch how she pair up a short 3/4 th sleeve Kurti with a pair of denim shorts. So, next time you want to wear the shorts in the most casual way without turning too many heads, pair it up with a simple short cotton Kurti.

With Boyfriend Jeans – generally boyfriend jeans are flabby and loose but super comfortable to wear. Therefore, wear a sleeveless short Kurti with a pair of boyfriend jeans for a nice casual look. This is perfect for summers as well.

With Long Skirts – Kurti can also be paired with long flowy skirts as well. We have seen a number of Bollywood celebrities pulled off such an ethnic combo of Kurti and long skirt and we love the way it turned out to be. It gives a girl-next- door look with such polish and élan.

With Accessories – Kurti can also be accessorized in various ways. To add an ethnic touch, wear a dupatta with it. For casual look, you can add a scarf around the neck. Further it can be accessorized with bangles, earrings, bracelets, belts, head chain for a bohemian look, etc. as per the style and occasion.

With Palazzos – Kurti can be paired with flared pants or palazzos as well. These are extremely comfortable in summers where you want something loose fitted yet stylish. Palazzos and Kurti is also a killer combo for girl with long legs. Just make sure that the Kurti has no flared bottom. In fact, the sleeveless, long, straight, printed Kurti gives decent professional look with matching plain palazzo.

With Dhoti Pants – Dhoti pants are also coming back in fashion and the several pleats around the thigh area gives a nice flattering touch to the curves. Mix and match your dhoti pants with the Kurti and see how stylish it turns out to be.

Thus, these are the stylish and fashionable Kurti trend which has so many variants and can be paired in a number of ways to perk up your wardrobe.

Bollywood Newbies Who Give Us Major Fashion Goals

Bollywood Newbies Who Give Us Major Fashion Goals

By Nidhal

With each passing year we witness a sea of newcomers making inroad into the glitzy, glamorous and glittering world of Tinseltown. Some sparkle with their author-backed roles while some fizzle point-blank in addition to taking the audience for a ride (a ride they would never sign up for even if offered a free ticket)! Amongst all those who venture into Bollywood, there are some whose sense of dressing and taste in fashion compels us to sit back and take a notice after all, they might just be the next ‘Fashionistas’ of B-town 🙂

On that note, here is a compendium of those B-town ladies, some of them yet to be launched while most new-comers, who have it in them to be the next Fashionistas of Tinseltown.

1. KRITI SANON- A towering height? Check. An enviable body? Check. Glossy mane? Check. Pert and ebullient attitude? Check. A gorgeous face? Check. Anything left? Oh yes, an impeccable sense of style. This Delhi girl makes sure that even if she swathes herself in the simplest of attires, heads would turn. A newbie in Tinseltown who looks effortlessly stylish in even a simple pair of jeans and tops/tees, Kriti’s style is easy-going, fun and vivacious. Certainly, one lady for whom all the boys would do Heropanti to win her over!

2. VAANI KAPOOR- She scorched the silver screen with Shudh Desi Romance in 2013 as Gayatri but went missing from the big screen thereafter. She is back this year with the quirky Ranveer Singh in YRF’s Befikre and we couldn’t be any happier for the chirpy lady’s laidback sense of style is what we are going to be treated to.

3. KHUSHI KAPOOR- Now, comes a lady who hasn’t be formally launched but thanks to Instagram, we get to glimpses of this gorgeous lady who is making the right waves with her sartorial choices. The daughter of Bonny & Sridevi Kapoor and the cousin of the reigning Fashionista of Tinseltown- Sonam Kapoor, Khushi Kapoor is one lady whom we are eagerly looking forward to w.r.t. the style department. Doesn’t this picture of hers exude oomph and aplomb as she unleashes her gothic avatar? 🙂

4. MALAVIKA MOHANAN- A newbie in the Malayam film industry, Malavika Mohanan is the best out of the lot for me. There is something about her that makes me go “Ah! She is so sophisticatedly sensual” every time I see a picture of her. Be it ethnic wear or Western apparel, she is rules the roost and how! An expression of her creative energies- The Scarlet Window, her Tumblr blog is a treat to the eyes of fashion connoisseurs.

5. ATHIYA SHETTY – By now a favourite of a number of leading fashion connoisseurs, Athiya Shetty experiments confidently with clothes like no other. From figure-hugging gowns to grungy attire, from heavily embellished anarkalis to dunagrees, Athiya takes dressing seriously and that shows every time she makes an appearance.

6. DIANA PENTY- Essaying the character of Meera in Cocktail with utmost sincerity and subtlety, Diana struck a chord with audiences instantly. Unfortunately, we couldn’t see more of this leggy lass after that but she’s soon going to reappear on the silver screen. A former successful model, Diana’s style is very easy-going, laidback and comfort-driven. But that doesn’t mean the lady can’t carry other outfits. She can very well let her hair down and transmogrify into the drop-dead gorgeous diva at her own sweet will.

7. POOJA HEGDE- About to make inroads into Tinseltown opposite Greek God- Hrithik Roshan in Ashutosh Gowariker’s period drama- Mohenjodaro, Pooja Hegde is a known name down South. With her sharp Indian features, luscious locks and experimental streak, we are sure to get treated to a whole new range of eclectic styles with time 🙂

Editor’s Note: I really like Kriti Sanon and Vaani Kapoor. Also Athiya Shetty looks perfect all the time.

B Town Ladies Who Are Bringing Sexy ‘Back’

B Town Ladies Who Are Bringing Sexy ‘Back’

By Nidhal

While we sing paeans in the honour of eyes for they are appositely called “The windows to one’s soul”, there is another part of ours that exudes sensuality in an unprecedented way. Be it the slight slit of a crop top that gives a peak-a- boo to those chiseled muscles running all the way down or the 9-yard long saree which lets one flaunt that sculpted back the way you have always wanted to, there is no denying that backs are sensual and if flaunted rightly, they can set temperatures soaring 🙂 Tinseltown too, has a fair share of ladies whose backs leave us drooling every time we spot them in attire that flaunts their covetous possession. So, why not have a look at them and get that much- needed boost of inspiration that makes us hit the gym right now?

1. SHRIYA SARAN- Indubitably, the epitome of an Indian beauty for me, Shriya’s facial features are as enviable as her drool-worthy back which augments the grace of her backless blouses all the more. Dove-shaped eyes, fuller lips, glossy tresses, luminous skin, an enviable back that flaunts the skimpiest of blouses tastefully and there you have it, our very own Desi Jasmine

2. VIDYA BALAN- Can there seriously be anyone who does not admire this lady? She is audacious, intrepid and ridiculously sexy. And yes, she knows it too 🙂 Vidya Balan again is one Indian lady whose back makes for a nice piece of art to look at in sheer admiration and envy (if we confess)! Gawk… Drool… Sigh… repeat.

3. DEEPIKA PADUKONE- If offered to, I will without any iota of doubt switch bodies with her. Who wouldn’t? 😀 Her physique can carry off even a curtain if she’s told to! And while we may sigh over her almond-shaped eyes and toned legs, it is her back that raises mercury levels high. Cue? Watch Ram Leel’s Ang Laga De. The grace with which her waist sways and back arches makes her look feminine and enchanting simultaneously.

4. KATRINA KAIF- To those who don’t know, in De Dana Dan (an Akshay-Katrina starrer comedy flick), a special song was added (yes, the ones whose stills you are feasting your eyes to) to bank upon this on-screen couple’s sizzling chemistry. While the lesser we say with regards to the flick, the better but we surely do not disapprove the person(s) whose idea it was 🙂 After all, we got to see that this Hong-Kong born lady has a back that tantalises one to the T.

5. NARGIS FAKHRI- Miss Fakhri who is all the way from The States, has a pout that is the shutterbugs’ fancy to capture. A former model, Nargis posts about her diet and exercise routines on her Instagram account and fortunately, we now ken what that chiseled back of hers is a result of.

6. ANUSHKA SHARMA- Ms. Sharma who redefines pertness, vivaciousness and ebullience is not just a storehouse of energy and youth but also the proud owner of a sultry back that is well- flaunted here by her.

7. PRIYANKA CHOPRA- We, Desis particularly the ladies have some unique possessions just like women across the globe are blessed in some departments. And when swathed in Desi apparel, those possessions get highlighted like never before. Take a cue from the Desi Girl whose back here, can leave one both awed and amazed thanks to the way the saree is highlighting her curves.

Editor’s Note: Katrina and Deepika look fabulous.

Best Off Screen Fashion Looks of Deepika Padukone

Best Off Screen Fashion Looks of Deepika Padukone

By Nidhal

Tinseltown stood testimony to the launch of Mr. Prakash Padukone’s daughter opposite SRK. It was the perfect launch vehicle. Renowned star, commercial film, huge budget, exotic and fancy locales, elaborate song and dance sequences, reincarnation saga, avenging the death of the love of one’s life by battering the antagonist black and blue, a song sequence entailing almost the entire B-town and aggressive promotions… Om Shanti Om (2007) was an ideal Launchpad for the lady.

To top it all, the movie was clashing with Sanjay Leela Bhansaali’s Sawariya which starred two star kids. So, the competition had some teeth in it too. The release date arrived. The box office stated its verdict. OSO thrashed Sawariya point blank and the leading lady of the former became an overnight sensation. Despite bagging almost all the Best Female Debut awards that year, her acting skills were limited and were panned by critics for long. With time, she upped her game, took things in her stride and today, she is no longer just Prakash Padukone’s daughter. She is Deepika Padukone

With humongous commercial successes like Chennai Express, Race 2 and YJHD in her kitty and an award-winning performance in Piku, this dimpled lady has set the bar high now. As far as her styling is concerned, it has evolved over the years and how! Almost everything she donnes has Fashionistas sit up and take notice. With a towering frame, heart-warming smile, almond-shaped eyes, drool- worthy physique and effortless sense of style, Deepika has no doubt become a sure-shot head- turner 🙂 On that note, let’s have a look at the BEST OFF-SCREEN AVATARS OF DEEPIKA PADUKONE THAT LEFT US DROOLING.

1. IN FENDI- Looking as fresh as a daisy, Ms. Padukone attended a promotional event for Bajirao Mastani in Delhi wearing Fendi separates with Zanotti ankle-strap sandals. With her luscious locks let loose and radiant skin, this look was easy, fun, casual and trendy.

2. UNVEILING THE DEEWANI-MASTANI SONG- Swaddled in a Tarun Tahiliani long kurta skirt look with relatively simple kundan earrings in Jaipur while unveiling the ‘Deewani Mastani’ song from her then, impending movie- Bajirao Mastani, Deepika looked a million bucks as she finished out the look with a matching lip shade and chic hairdo.

3. LET’S GO BLING- For another promotional event for Bajirao Mastani, Deepika opted for a monochrome striped blouse with a gold sequined pencil skirt. A studded belt from ASOS and cage sandals rounded her look out. To top it all, her poker straight hair looked chic and upped her glam quotient by leaps and bounds.

4. A LITTLE MORE BLING NEVER HURTS- Taking the bling look ahead, Deepika donned a pair of ripped bling jeans with a casual sweatshirt for the least leg of promotions of Bajirao Mastani. With her hair tied in a ponytail and s pair of heels, she sashayed as the shutterbugs tried to get a glimpse of this leggy lass. This look is apt for parties if you wish to break free from the monotony of one-piece dresses 🙂

5. GOING CASUAL WITH TUNICS- Keeping it casual and comfy during the Pune promotional tour of Bajirao Mastani, Deepika breezed through the scorching heat in a casual light grey tunic with distressed white pants, gold-tone jewelry,a brown belt, and animal-print ballerinas. It looks comfy and would make for an ideal pick for a casual day out with friends when the Sun is leaving no stone unturned to toast you

6. WITH TRIBAL JEWELLERY- Deepika gives one major fashion goals with this ochre Mango shift dress paired with a fringed Stradivarius vest that she donned for the promotions of Tamasha. The tribal jewellery is the perfect finishing touch.

7. IN MICHAEL KORS- The leading lady of Tamasha defines the art of chic dressing as she opts for a midi-length Michael Kors dress with Steve Madden heels. Add to that, her fresh as a daisy skin tone and you are sure to be smitten, aren’t you?

Who Wore What: IIFA 2016 Green Carpet

Who Wore What: IIFA 2016 Green Carpet

Hi guys,

I have been seeing IIFA 2016 updates everywhere, from Instagram to Snapchat to twitter to facebook, so that’s the only thing on my mind right now 😀

I saw all the outfits Bollywood celebs wore yesterday night for the main show and I thought of doing a post on that. So let’s start:

1. Deepika Padukone

Deepika wore this super gorgeous Sabyasachi Mukherjee lace and diamante beige co-ords with a beautiful cape to go with it. The diamond and emerald set matched the outfit perfectly. Makeup wise she had black smokey eyes and a nude pink lip with a slick back ponytail. I believe Daniel Bauer was doing her makeup for IIFA.

2. Neha Dhupia

Neha wore white separates, a white shirt and super flared skirt from H & M. She was styled by Sohaya. The outfit is decent but definitely not for IIFA. Considering how perfect Neha Dhupia always is, I am not impressed!

3. Athiya Shetty

Athiya wore a gorgeous blush pink Ramikadi gown. The roses and thread work detailing on the gown are gorgeous! She wore a Bibhu Mohapatra pant suit for the event a day earlier. The mesh shirt especially looks fabulous, pant suits are perfect for her tall and lean body. She was styled by Ami Patel. Her Ramikadi gown was to die for!

4. Aditi Rao Hydari

Aditi wore a green Shantanu & Nikhil gown with Outhouse jewellery. The hairband and earrings were beautiful. Her makeup was something to talk about, absolutely perfect, it was done by Elton J Fernandez. While wearing green on the green carpet is not a good idea, she managed to pull it off well.

5. Bipasha Basu

The newly married Bipasha Basu wore a deep navy Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla gown. The silhouette compliments her body really well and the the flared lower half is also very flattering.

6. Dia Mirza

Dia Mirza wore a mint Nakul Sen gown, it was ok, not something exceptional. Nothing much to say about.

7. Bhumi Pednekar

Bhumi is slaying it, she has transformed completely after her weight loss and has been on fleek in her fashion and makeup game too. I know our very own Neeraj Navare does her makeup quite a lot of times for events, etc. She wore this light lavender Shantanu & Nikhil lace strapless gown. The gown is beautiful and her deep red lips, straight hair and french manicured nails were absolutely perfect. Love!

8. Sonakshi Sinha

Sonakshi wore a beautiful beige Abu Jani & Sandeep Khosla princessy gown. Love the silhouette, very flattering on her body and the dress is gorgeous. Hair tied in a sleek bun and deep red lips complete the look. She was styled by Alia Al Rufai

9. Shilpa Shetty

Shilpa Shetty wore a white cut out mermaid gown with mesh detailing and gold border, by Shantanu & Nikhil. She did want to show off her toned body which looks like worked really hard on. Not a fan of the dress but she looks fabulous, only she could carry something like this. The tan and bronzed skin looks sun kissed and glowing <3

10. Nargis Fakhri

Nargis wore this black Namrata Joshipura dress which was perfect for her height and body. She was styled by Alia Al Rufai too. She wore a pastel blue pant suit for the event the day before and carried it off amazingly well.

Which outfit did you like the most? I absolutely loved Deepika, Sonakshi, Athiya, Bhumi & Bipasha. Oo..there were many hits this year 🙂

Best Off Screen Looks of Sonam Kapoor

Best Off Screen Looks of Sonam Kapoor

By Nidhal

In the rule book of fashion, if there is one person whose name will be etched in golden alphabets, it will be without any iota of doubt, Sonam Kapoor. Since the day she stepped into B-wood, while many have questioned her acting and PR skills, no one can turn a blind eye to her impeccable sense of style and fashion. She is one sure-shot head-turner 🙂

Be it her casual looks, red carpet appearances, ethnic ensemble or ramp apparel, she keeps one bewitched. A personal favourite of the fashion police, let us have a look at the top 5 off-screen avatars of Sonam Kapoor when she left us gasping for more

1. ON THE STREETS OF MELBOURNE- Strolling the captivating streets of Melbourne and later attending a press conference with her father Anil Kapoor in absolute style, Sonam opted for a black LBD that not only looks casual but also professional. Unique, right? With her luscious brown locks loose and radiant skin, she surely set a lot of hearts fluttering.

2. DAY 2 OF CANNES 2013 – Sashaying down the red carpet of Cannes Film Festival 2013 on Day 2 in a custom made floral Dolce and Gabbana gown at the Jeune et Jolie premiere, Sonam raised the glam quotient of the event without going overboard thanks to her minimal makeup and accessories. The dress has a corset bodice with a voluminous skirt. And the print looks feminine, chic and quirky. It goes without saying that Sonam looked effortlessly drop-dead gorgeous.

3. AIRPORT LOOK- In one word, Sonam looks exquisite. Swaddled in a nude dress and black coat, with poker straight hair, nerdy glasses and black boots, she looks dressed like a French lady. Fashionable but not trying too hard to cast an impression- well, these things surely come naturally to this leggy lass.

4. PRDP PROMOTIONS DESI STYLE- In keeping with the underlying theme of Director Sooraj Barjatya’s Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo, Sonam opted for ethnic attire for the promotions of the film. See here is Sonam swaddled in an ethnic attire by Radha Vakil and jewellery by Sunita Kapoor.

5. IIJW 2015 RAMP – With a flair to pull off most attires in the most flattering way, Sonam Kapoor defined regal as she wore an ornate Shyamal and Bhumika lehenga at the IIJW 2015 show for Birdhichand jewellers. And the dupatta that trailed behind her as she sashayed down the ramp, added all the drama a showstopper’s outfit can ask for

6. AT KHOOBSURAT’S TRAILER LAUNCH- Her attire (and co-star) is exactly what the movie’s title is –Khoobsurat 🙂 Opting for a black and white monochrome printed Toni Maticevski at the trailer launch of Khoobsurat, Sonam looked drop-dead gorgeous.

7. IN AN ABU-JANI SANDEEP KHOSLA SAREE- Resplendent – in one word, Sonam’s look during the promotions of Neerja when she swaddled herself in an Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla saree was magnificent. In fact, everything about this look is on point be it her hair style, makeup or choice of accessories. That’s how you style a saree.
