Daily Style Crush: Sonam Kapoor in Prabal Gurung


I LOVE this look from the Prabal Gurung Resort 2012 collection and have been waiting (and praying) for a well-known face to step out in it! I've been curious to see where, when and how it will be worn and of course, by whom. Gorgeous Indian actress Sonam Kapoor wasn't the first on my list of expected stars, but I'm thrilled she decided to wear it to the Mausam premiere in Mumbai. I kind of anticipated someone taller with a super-model's figure to wear it, to give it its full potential height-wise and silhouette-wise but strangely enough, Sonam works it pretty flawlessly! The colours are beautiful on her, so hopefully this will give her a boost to step onto the red carpet in brighter, more daring numbers, because she can definitely pull it off if this outing is anything to go by.

Catwalk Catchup: NYFW Prabal Gurung Spring/Summer 2012


We can only admire New York Fashion Week through our computer screens but we are liking what we see so far. Thank God for live streams - they make the experience come to life in far more than a literal sense. 

The first collection which stood out for me was Prabal Gurung; so vivid! It's a far cry from the dark romance theme he went for during his last catwalk outing, but his signature style is still weaved within the garments. Prabal Gurung was clearly having a bit of a lavender love affair and played with different materials and colour transitions. There was a bit of a sexy, bondage element to a lot of the dresses, but as Louis Vuitton proved last season, fetish fashion is making a comeback so he's onto a winner.

Daily Style Crush: Sarah Jessica Parker Pt 2



There are no rules against having the same celebrity style crush twice in one week. And even if there were, we are unleashing our inner rebels and claiming that rules are meant to be broken. Let's face it, nine times out of ten, SJP looks stunning. Flawless. Not a hair out of place etc etc. And this is no exception. 

We are actually in love with this Prabal Gurung Resort 2012 dress and when we saw it on the runway, we had visions of Blake Lively, Olivia Palermo or even a little Kourtney Kardashian casually walking the Upper East Side in it, claiming they were just out doing the "grocery" shopping with four body guards and a camera crew in tow. 

It's a bit of a 'young' dress with the bright block colour and playful prints but now that we've seen Sarah in it, we literally cant imagine anyone coming close to rocking it as well as SJP does. Plus -the platform Charlotte Olympia pumps give it that final Carrie Bradshaw touch; and we're glad she's brought her signature tousled waves back - she OWNS them!
