Fashion Archives: The Holy Trifecta

…in my fashion world is red, black and white – as of course, you know. I came across this Givenchy perfection while trying to find something else in my fashion archives. Now, of course, I forget what that was… Image is from my digital archives and the original source, I believe, is Holt Renfrew.

SAG Awards 2012: Dame Dressing

At last night’s SAG Awards, a dame wore another dame – and it looked, well, damn good. Auntie Viv and Aunt Meryl – quite the pairing, no? Images modified by Yours Truly.

SAG Awards 2012: Best Dressed

Mrs. Rampal Rocks Out

I joke about being Mrs. Rampal in the next life, but I really do admire the current Mrs. Rampal. A former supermodel, she revived her role in this month’s Vogue India. She sizzles on the pages of the mag’s annual shape issue. Mr. Rampal, you are a lucky man. I loved the rock-star vibe in [...]

Couture Dreamer

While much of the world may find it excessive, it is precisely this type of beauty that allows me to dream. And no, not just down the street, dreams… This dress plays a starring role in my far-away-in-a-life-and-land-unknown couture dreams. It is made for moi. Merci, Monsieur Rolland. And are those not the chicest evening [...]

Fresh Face: Alyssah Ali

Thought I recognized this face… It’s Canadian model, Alyssah Ali, featured in Chanel’s recent Beauty campaign. Lovely to see her getting recognized by a label like Chanel. She was also in the Paris-Bombay collection, which featured a number of masala-mix models on the runway – she’s of Indian/Spanish descent and was born in Trinidad. The [...]

Uncle Karl’s Closet

The much-anticipated collection by one of our closet and closest relatives is finally out (and pretty much sold out). The pieces for his collection for Net-a-Porter take after our dear and beloved Uncle Karl, naturally. Here are my faves from the collection. Want. Naturally. Available at http://www.net-a-porter.com/.  

Golden Globes 2012: Man Mode

The men are getting dressed for the red carpet lately, too. Don’t know about you, but I don’t mind a man who knows his mode. Let’s man-watch on the next red carpet. After all, it is open (awards) season. See all Golden Globes 2012 posts. See all the Red Carpet category posts. Images: Gervais photo [...]

Happy Couture Week!

I don’t know about you, my dears, but I saw a glimmer of hope at Dior, today… Lots more to come… Happy Couture Week! Image: Vogue.com.    

Golden Globes 2012: Young and Old

First rule of red carpet dressing: don’t let the dress wear you. Second? Be age and personality-appropriate when it comes to your evening attire (when a gazillion people are watching). There are those that are young at heart and those that are old souls – it isn’t about paying attention to the number of years [...]

Golden Globes 2012: In Excess

Repeat after me: don’t let the dress wear you. These ladies are lovely and don’t need that much embellishment. Stylists, take note. Nothing wrong with the ladies – just their fashion choices for this event. See all Golden Globes 2012 posts. See all the Red Carpet category posts.

Burgundy Bag Babe

Guilty. Guilty as charged. I like the wine. And may I just take a moment to whine that everyone is wearing my fave colour these days? Well, I suppose I can stock up for when they are bored with the burg, which of course, I shall clutch on to, forevermore. Lu-uved this Rachael Ruddick embossed [...]

Golden Globes 2012: Hitting the Vino

Along with swimming the sea of blue and green, many Hollywood-types were also basking in Bordeaux. One could say the host hit the vino early in the evening, as one of the first arrivals on ze tapis rouge. My mom said Viola Davis looked as if she were made of bronze. Talk about toned! You [...]

Golden Globes 2012: Swimming in Blue and Green

The tapis rouge was a sea of green… It was a sea of blue, too… And it was a sea of blue-green, aussi… See all Golden Globes 2012 posts. See all the Red Carpet category posts. Images have been edited and modified by yours truly. Original source photos are as follows: Dern, Depp photos by [...]

Golden Globes 2012: Not So Excessive Accessories

Fab fashion accessories were scarce at this year’s Golden Globes. Here are a few that caught my eye… My fave accessory this year? The red lip! It’s about time. Think they’ve heard my complaints over the years? There was only one or two head cases, this time around. These baubles were my favourite – Julianne [...]
