Shekhar Kapur @ Elizabeth Premiere

Mr Kapur either really loves this outfit or he just can't afford anymore clothes after the filming of Elizabeth-The Golden Age.

Here he is at the premiere of "Elizabeth-The Golden Age" last night in New York.



Now look at what he is wearing to the press conference of the movie at the Toronto International Film Festival held a few weeks ago.




We still like him because he is one of the few people who always wears traditional to every event.

Chloé Kerala

Chloé has a new bag out, the Chloé Kerala leather shoulder bag and it looks pretty good! It has a nice yellow'ish leather, the shoulder straps look comfortable and the gold hardware is pretty much the standard Chloé fare. While I like the bag, its shape etc, I could do without the equestrian themed charms! And the whole Kerala reference zoomed past me...

Angie's Pashmina!

If you have been eyeing Angelina's green shawl and wondering how to get your hands on one, you have stumbled onto the right place!

This picture above is a classic example of how a great colored shawl can transform an outfit from casual to chic!

A shawl is much bigger than a stole and can easily substitute for a light jacket. I, personally, prefer to wear shawls cuz you can remove them easily. Jackets make me feel stuffy not to mention the constant headache of putting them on and taking them off. A good pashmina is a great substitute for a light jacket during fall.

Stay warm and toasty ladies with these great options!

P.S. You do not have to stick with green. There are many colors to choose from, so go ahead start your own color trend!

Malaika Does It Again!

Spotted Malaika Arora Khan in Bebe, AGAIN! She was dressed in a Bebe crinkle silk halter dress at Mid-Day's 'Zing' launch.

How does she wear the same label, from the same collection to three events consecutively? This is getting ridiculous! Someone, please point her to a Mall. And blindfold her when passing by the Bebe store!

Suneet Varma's Celebratory Fashion Show

Suneet Varma celebrated 21 years in fashion with a celebratory ball and fashion show and I must say I was really disappointed. Dominated by cutwork embroidery and mettalic hues, the collection was such a letdown.

I had so hoped to be blown away, considering the collection he presented at India Splendor back in August was so vibrant and regal! I gotta say it.. I totally hated it!

Chunky Shoes, A Trend??















Source

Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton's Fall 2007 ready to wear collection did these super chunky, gladiator'esque shoes, almost invoking the inner dominatrix in a woman! And now, I notice the same sort of shoes being worn by Sarah Jessica Parker in the upcoming Sex And The City Movie! Do I smell a trend?

Oh, and incidentally, the shoes that SJP is wearing are Christian Dior's! And if you fancy a pair, found one on Ebay, take a look!

Vuitton In Pondicherry?


Source

Louis Vuitton is looking to set up a factory in Pondicherry, purpose of which would be to attach soles to its uber luxurious (and expensive) shoes. But, and there is always a but, the tag on those shoes will continue to read, 'Made In Italy' because thats where most of the work would've been done! Read more HERE

Mumbai Travel Notebook By LV

Louis Vuitton recently had a dinner to honor Wes Anderson and the movie "The Darjeeling Limited". What piqued my interest about the event was the appearance of the "Mumbai" Travel Notebook by Louis Vuitton, which was given to every guest.

Mind you, this book is sold out! You can find every other travel notebook on E-Luxury except the "Mumbai" notebook. :(





The notebook consists of illustrations based on India by Florine Asch. Before you make a judgement about the illustrations (about having the "cliched" elephants, maharajahs and turbans), let me tell you that the book has illustrations on landmarks and city scenes(the mumbai dabbawallas!).









The notebook retails for $81, which in "LV" terms is pretty darn cheap, in my opinion. Gosh, now I gotta go and schmooze the sales guy at the LV store to get me one!

Check out the "Mumbai" Travel Notebook on the Louis Vuitton website by searching for "notebook".
