Girl with the blue scarf

GOLDEN GIRLS: Sonam Kapoor, Freida Pinto and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan sashay down the Cannes 2014 red carpet for LÓreal cosmetic giant While Sonam Kapoor made sure she turned heads at the Cannes 2014 red carpet, it wasn't really out-of-the blue look for us as she is a fashionista in her daily avatar anyway back here in India, too. Frieda Pinto chose a bubblegum colour yet again (similar hue in Cannes 2013 too) with flat hair, it was bummer look. Hands-down winner as the face for L'Oreal was Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Shining in a golden Roberto Cavalli fishtail gown, she was every one's darling rather instantly. End of all, I am going to get that lipstick shade for sure. And not just me, a lot of Asian girls plan to do so. PS: Almost forgot that Cannes is a Film Festival and not a runway show. So, which film won? Huh!

Bolly actresses who desperately need to look their age - Lose some pounds Which Bollywood actresses pop up in your mind when you think of overweight look and aunty-like image? We've shortlisted a few cutie pies. With no offence meant toward their personal choices, their onscreen looks (heavy ones at that) are being mentioned here. SONAKSHI SINHA: This young girl from Bihar is very pretty and is amazing at emoting with her acting skills (something her contemporaries recognise openly) quite a few hits like Dabangg, Bullett Raja, Lootera and more. With a few kilos off her bod, she can certainly look her age HUMA QURESHI: Dedh Ishqiya actress will look striking with few kilos gone. Hit the gym, kick the heavy Mughlai food and she will make an entry. Till then, don't show those legs... VIDYA BALAN: Sunch an amazing award-winnign actress, Vidya was sadly always the media's hated child thanks to her dressing options and weight issues. But it's not the kilos ...

ILLUSION AT LAKME FASHION WEEK SUMMER/RESORT GRAND FINALE 2014 A child-like fantasy world of big frangipani tree rising skywards and a maze of mirrors with candles creating a metallic illusion. We just didn't know from where the models walked in. It was an amazing grand finale.  MIRROR WORLD : Choreographed ably by Lubna Adams, the LFW Summer/Resort 2014 grand finale had a stage decked with candles and mirrors to keep us guessing if it was a model in real or her reflection While, I really liked the designer Rajesh Pratap Singh's signature style of keeping his fabrics simple and cuts wearable, I did find metallic hues as not too suitable in a Summer/Resort line. Now, it's simple, not many of us would wear Black in summers . Not in India for sure!
