In Peter Pilotto


For her book launch, Sonali picked a Peter Pilotto top. Wearing the off-shoulder top with a Lisa Marie Fernandez skirt, she finished out her look with a pair of Jimmy Choo wedges. Love the top! And waist-up, she looked great.

That said, while the look in its entirety wasn’t bad by any means, it would’ve greatly benefitted with a different skirt. A plain, full skirt for a boho vibe, midi pencil skirt for that retro-inspired look or just a pair of well fitting cigarette pants for a more contemporary direction… Not only would they all have paired well with the top, the look would’ve been elevated several notches too. But like we said, as is, it wasn’t bad, just not great either!

Doing Denim


Wearing a pink Akanksha Gajria blazer with J.Crew denims, Sonali attended the launch of her book. I don’t mind the rolled-up denims but the addition of the belt (Ferragamo) made the look feel dissected. The top half felt dressy and the bottom, too casual. Skipping the belt completely would’ve avoided that effect and felt more seamless.

Like what you see?

TV Talk


Going by these pictures, when filming her television show, Sonali seems to favor easy, relaxed silhouettes. Of the four, which look of hers do you like most?

Of Separates


Sonali attended Manish Malhotra’s show wearing a red sherwani from the menswear collection with a black Rag & Bone top and faded denims, also from Rag & Bone. Pairing the separates with a black Ferragamo sling bag, she finished out her look with Alexander Wang wedges and a red lip.

While I like the theory of this formal-meets-casual look, in reality though, the faded denims became one visual element too many. Non-faded ones and my eye-balls wouldn’t feel as if they were all over the place.

What say you?

In Akanksha Gajria


For her appearance at a recent event, Jacqueline picked a multi-print, neon pink Akanksha Gajria suit. Wearing her hair partially pinned back, the actor finished out the look with a red lip and Valentino ‘Rockstud’ pumps.

Between the hair and sandals, the styling weighed down a look which otherwise could’ve been fun and right up the actor’s alley. If not a pair of softer, neutral/nude ‘Rockstuds’, wish Jacqueline had picked ones that offered a fun contrast like these or these. Different shoes, sleek hair and glossy, soft lip color would’ve helped make this look work. As it stands though, as potentially fun as the look was, we couldn’t get ourselves to warm up to it.
