Who Wore What- IIFA Awards 2014 and the Green Carpet

So after the press conference, promotions and pre- events which I covered HERE, lets move on to the main awards IIFA 2014.

My hits and misses..

1. Jahnvi Kapoor in D & G

Jahnvi chose a Dolce & Gabbana full skirted dress and strappy sandals..with a soft, messy updo. Cute, I did say.

2. Parineeti Chopra in Nikhil Thampi

Pari chose this one shoulder peach Nikhil Thampi gown..the color is good..but is it not a little too simple ? I did not like the Rahul Mishra one sheer skirt though..did not flatter her figure..this is atleast better.

3. Kalki in Gaurav Gupta

Kalki in a grey Gaurav Gupta gown with silver detailing all over. No, a little too much..plus the color is too dull on her.

4. Yami Gautam in Gauri and Nainika

Yami in this monochrome Gauri Nainika gown..though it screams high school..but she always looks cute !

5. Dia Mirza in Sabyasachi

Dia looked amazing in this pink and gold ombre Sabyasachi embellished gown with Amrapali jewellery..that dress is stunning !

6. Gauahar Khan in Ken Ferns

Gauahar in a red Ken Ferns gown..is it Christmas already ?! Did not like the silhouette too.

7. Kareena Kapoor in Armani

Kareena chose this black sheer panel Armani dress..a little too bold..but she pulled it off quiet well !

8. Sridevi in Oscar De La Renta

Sridevi chose this black shimmery Oscar De La Renta gown..perfect makeup, hair updo and studs..she looks ravishing !

9. Priyanka Chopra in Monique Lhuillier

PC chose this embellished nude Monique Lhuillier gown..smokey eyes and an elegant updo..she looked great.

10. Sonakshi Sinha in Amit Aggarwal

Shimmery Navy Blue Amit Aggarwal gown, Bottega Veneta clutch, soft wavy hair..Sonakshi looked quiet good.

11. Deepika Padukone in Zuhair Murad

Dippy chose a Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad red lace gown..I liked the gown..but the berry lip :/ Does not work with this at all.

12. Dia Mirza in Halston Heritage

Beautiful peachy orange pleated Halston Heritage gown, Jimmy Choo clutch and an Amrapali multi chained layered necklace..Dia looks stunning here !

12. Madhuri Dixit in Sonaakshi Raaj

Again a Sonaakshi Raaj after Bipasha in white..this time Madhuri chose a different color..and I am glad..coz that color looks amazing on her..loved it. (Both these Sonaakshi Raaj outfits are from the recent Lakme Fashion Week S/R 2014..and I had attended this show)

13. Swara Bhaskar in BCBG

Swara chose this coral BCBG illusion panel dress..I like how the illusion panel works on her..nice..

14. Kareena in Armani

Kareena chose a Giorgio Armani again..separates here..a beaded white top and velvet paneled skirt..bright orange lips completed the look.

Also there were many blacks ! Madhuri chose a black Jatin Varma and Malaika a Shivan Narresh, Bipasha a Rocky S..too many black gowns seen !

I loved Sridevi, Madhuri, Kareena, Dia and Priyanka !

So, whats your pick ? Whose outfit did you like the most ?

What/Whom Bollywood brides wore
Regardless of the scale of the wedding, the star couples, especially the brides of Bollywood, have never failed to wow us. Here’s a look at the beautiful ladies in their wedding couture.
1. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan:

Aishwarya looked ravishing in a golden colour Saree designed by Neeta Lulla on her wedding day. The bride was decked in gold, kundan, precious gems and diamond jewellery from head to toe.

2. Esha Deol:

Dressed in a lovely pink lehenga by Rocky S, Esha looked resplendent at the event. Make-up, jewellery, hair were perfectly done keeping subtlety in mind.

3. Kareena Kapoor:

For her D-day Kareena, wore a green punjabi suit, while Saif chose to dress up in a grey kurta-pyjama since they had a simple registered marriage, for the nikaah ceremony she wore her mom in law Sharmila’s old red gharara..restored by Manish Malhotra..and for the reception or Dawaat E Waalima she again wore a Manish Malhotra “old-world” pink gharara

4. Lara Dutta:

Lara picked a gown by Lebanese-born Elie Saab for her wedding which took place in Christian style. Her gown also had a lot of lace, silk taffeta, and organza and a neckline studded with gemstones. What more!

5. Lisa Ray:

Recently married Lisa wore a crystal-encrusted gown by close friend and designer Wendell Rodricks, while for the reception she was seen in an exquisite custom-made Satya Paul sari. That sari sure is gorgeous..georgette sari highlighted with beige and traditional ‘gota patti’ work !!
6. Shilpa Shetty:
Shilpa looked stunning in the shimmering golden coloured dress, designed by Tarun Tahiliani. Complementing her dress was the jewellery which she picked from Anmol jewels.
7. Genelia:
Genelia wore a red lehenga-choli ensemble and net dupatta heavily decorated with golden embroidery and sequins, exuding classic elegance. The red and gold stunning lehenga was designed by Shane and Falguni Peacock. The fitted choli and flairs of the lehenga suited her slim figure.
I loved Lisa Ray’s Satya Paul sari and Genelia’s Lehenga Choli..

Lakme Absolute Monochrome Day and Night Looks

A little bit about Lakme Monochrome:

Pioneering beauty trends for the modern and bold Indian woman, Lakmé launched its latest style statement – Lakmé Absolute Monochrome – a collection of chic, edgy and glamourous looks styled to perfectly suit the contrasting roles of the Indian woman. The Monochrome Day and Monochrome Night Looks will highlight the ramp at the Lakmé Grand Finale adorned by the creations of fashion visionaries Kallol Datta and Pankaj-Nidhi.

Sharply graphic, Monochrome is a look that reflects the color blocking trend in fashion, and channels attention to one part of the face to maximize the impact of make-up. Lakmé Absolute Monochrome looks have been put together with the Lakmé Absolute range of high performance make-up. Color vignettes for face, lips, eyes and nails, this range promises intense color and a flawless finish along with a 16-hour impeccable performance. Packed with skin enhancing ingredients, this super luxurious long wear range perfectly balances beauty and science.

Lakme Absolute Monochrome Day- Kallol Datta
Monochrome by Day:

The Monochrome day look begins with nourished, fresh and natural looking skin that can be achieved using the Lakmé Absolute Mousse. Subtlety is the key to this look and is furthered with a palette of nude, pink and peach shades for lips conveniently packaged in the Absolute Lip Pallette. The Absolute Kohl Ultimate will style eyes to draw gazes with well defined graphic lines.

Lakme Absolute Monochrome Night- Pankaj Nidhi

Monochrome by Night:

The Monochrome night look begins with nourished, fresh and natural looking skin that can be achieved using the Lakmé Absolute Mousse. Choose to colour block with a bold red on the lips or create smoky eyes with shades of emerald green and deep purple. The secret lies in accentuating just one feature. So pick your best one and go Monochrome!

I loved both the looks..as well as the white and black background..the makeup looks fab..the white rimmed lower lashline for the day look and the heavily contoured cheeks for the night look..both give the perfect day and night appeal..
