Warm Upto A Cold Shoulder

Just a few days ago we began spotting celebrities baring their shoulders and we of course knew it was only a matter of time before that trend caught on across the board considering how many designers worked that look in their Spring/Summer 2008 collections!

Its perfect for women with great collar bones and shoulders; just dress up the outfit with great earrings or chunky bracelets or bangles, or even a fabulous cocktail ring! Trick is to keep away from necklaces, just let the bare shoulders do the talking for you!

Leiber: Luxury Number One!

Leiber has just been named the most prestigious handbag brand in the 2007 Luxury Brand Status Index (LBSI) survey. Hermès and Prada came in second and third places, respectively. The fact that Prada edged out Bottega Veneta and Chanel surprises me a bit, especially considering the fact that it was Bottega Veneta that was named the most prestigious handbag brand in the 2006 Luxury Brand Status Index (LBSI) survey, just last year!

Indian Inspired Hermes Collection

Jean Paul Gautier’s inspiration for Hermes Spring 2008 Ready-to-wear Collection came from India and that was apparant right from the get go! There were turbans and in some instances, models’ hair that was styled like turbans with really high top knots!

There were beautiful suede tunics embellished and embroidered…And, I absolutely loved the Nehru jackets worn over jodhpurs. I for one, have never been into Jodhpurs but they are big for spring and I have seen almost every designer do them or atleast interpret them! But how great would those super structured Nehru jackets look with ciggarette trousers? Divine. And, that swimming costume? So reminiscent of the timeless Hermes silk scarf! Fabulous!

And there were these reinterpreted Sari-dresses which left a shoulder bare and had that ethereal feel about them, though must admit, they did sometimes get campy! But not everything in a collection is ever all commercial, so I loved it! And those beautiful purple, aubergine hues made an appearance too! That is ‘the’ color! The rich deep jewel tones were just fabulous!

I loved the longer evening dresses. So feminine, so much of what makes them an instant classic.

The collection was très luxe, uber chic and unquestionably Hermes. Whats not to like?

Sweet Dreams Are Made Of These

Birkins. Sweet dreams are made of these. Indeed.

Payal and I have just taken in a holiday weekend at Vegas with the girls and I happen to have come into some winnings. Albeit, tiny ones. But even then, guess where that money went?? To my, ‘When-will-I-afford-a-Birkin-God?” Fund. Yes, such funds do exist, its no urban legend! Check these droolworthy Birkins from the Hermes 2008 Spring ready-to-wear show!

Chocolate will never look or taste the same again. Look at the first Birkin. Am having a serious case of ‘I-Want’itis’!

The Olay-Vogue Brunch


Source

That’s Preity Zinta looking mighty fine at the Olay-Vogue Brunch at Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur, carrying a beautiful, droolworthy Hermes Birkin bag in an absolutely gorgeous shade of green! Pardon the cliche, but am envious… ‘green’ with envy, what else?!! (Ok, so her bangs are annoying but she’s carrying a bag in such a delectable color… am blind to everything else!)

And then there were three. Rahul Khanna, Gauri Khan and an unidentified lady in the middle. Gauri Khan looks totally washed out but it’s the lady in the middle that caught our attention for all reasons ‘bag’. You see what she’s carrying…? That’s a Bottega Veneta tote and we love.
