Wear the trend
Full Figure
Cinched waists and flattering hemlines makes this trend perfect for curvy girls, as for vertically challenged girls, adapt this trend with skirt suits or simply don on accessories that scream fifties like pearls, head pieces and no-nonsense bags.
While hardcore Audrey Hepburn, Betty Draper and the Mad Men fans can get away in pinched waists, pleated dresses and even, 50s curls and red lips, there are ways to tone it down to suit your subtle style. Wear a full skirt with a skinny belt or pointy shoes and a pussy bow blouse – the pick is entirely yours. Keep it simple, probably add one element to your outfit without overdoing the trend. Go floral, if you're the fun type.
The trend is easy to work into your existing wardrobe, just learn to team the right seperates with the right accessories. The best part? The trend can easily go from night to day depending on how you work with it.
A leather pencil skirt with a soft cardigan can take your from work, lunch through to dinner. For a night on the town, simply pin a sparkly brooch or throw on a gold jacket. This trend is all about clean cuts while still being flirty and feminine so play with textures, prints and accessories to take make this trend yours.

Monsoon Makeover
Invest in a spunky wardrobe this season and make the transition from summer to monsoon an effortless one.
With the scorching summer sun behind us, there’s nothing we want more than some showers of blessings or way. Monsoons are all about revamping your wardrobe, perking up your style with brighter, funkier colours and letting your inner child come out and play. So ladies, do away with the whites and cottons lying in your closet and bring in the neons and pinks to embrace the rains- fashionably.
Not a monsoon goes by without the bare essentials, the quintessential rain coat. Not the dreary, blue-black variety but the fun, bright-neon kind like this Sonya Vajifdar pre-rain jacket in fuchsia pink. With its leopard print inners there’s no excuse to brave the Indian rain without being in-vogue. Don’t want to take your favourite Louboutins or Jimmy Choos on a muddy ride? Invest in some sturdy rain boots. The Nova heart Burberry short rain boots set the mood for a monsoon romance with their classic checks and heart prints. And while we are at it, lets not forget the crucial rain accessory- an umbrella. Opt for the colourful, cheery variety to add some life into the grey skies that the season brings with the season’s fun accessory, the Paul Smith turquoise-hued umbrella.

To Wear, or Not to Wear? That is the Question.
Above all, remember that the most important thing you can take anywhere is not a Gucci bag or French-cut jeans; it's an open mind" - Gail Rubin Bereny
I cannot work alone; I need people around. So when I was going through the Spring Summer 2010 trend report, I forced my best friend to stay on the line whilst I tried comprehending (and reading out-aloud to her) the main trends.
“Remember, pastels—the Valentino draped dress is a stunner—and the military look—Ritu Kumar (Label) has paid much attention to detail here—seems to be in this season. When you go shopping, look out for clothes that fall under this category.”
But moments later, I questioned myself why it’s a necessity for her to look for those clothes? What if she’s happy with a flowery looking skirt instead?
"Fashion is made to become unfashionable." - Coco Chanel
Chanel’s right. The military look is in full fledge this 2010 season but it’s bound to not even exist in 2011. Out go the green patched up shorts and the golden-buttoned blue jacket along with the willingness to enjoy that particular piece of clothing again. All because it’s “out of fashion now.” Well, that’s a strange concept since my best friend still loves the flowery looking skirt she handpicked, she wears it all the time (yes, even though the trend reports might say so otherwise).
Now don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying go out there in the world and wear what makes you happy regardless of what other people say (even though that’s a great moral), but what I am saying is go out there and shop happily. Wear happily. Create fashion. Create trends. Don’t follow. Fashion isn’t about buying what other people suggest, but rather expressing your inner personality and putting who you are on display...for everyone to admire.
Today, it’s so easy for everyone to dress on par. The news talks about fashion, the magazines report it and the mass-people all blog about it. In this world of trend reports and opinionated people, it becomes even more important for everyone to remember what they really want to portray.
Don’t worry, the fashion magazines (like us, of course) will continue doing their job of talking about the prints, ruffles, and pastel shades that look the best with your skin tone; you should continue taking the expert advice. After all, some things just never change. Petite black dresses, fluffed-up ruffles, and nude shoes will be your best friends forever. For all the rest, just act like an artist: create a painting with the colors we prov

Waist-it-up
My office is super stylish. High heels and beautifully manicured nails—some of us even wake up an hour earlier to blow dry our hair, but that’s a secret. And of course, lavishing clothes. One day, my colleague walked into the office in what looked like a white cotton jumpsuit. Unattractive much? Wrong, she looked fabulous. In fact, for that entire day, I thought she was the best dressed at the office—and that’s a pretty big deal around here, believe me. There was just one thing that transformed this “grandmother-oversized-white jumpsuit” into something that’s goes in-sync with Vogue: a belt.
Show-off your curves, hide your flaws, add color, or even try being thinner. Belts have evolved over the years and today they’re used for more than just holding up your jeans. Take a bloated, long, and boring t-shirt and strap on a chic looking belt…there’s your stylish outfit for the day. Even Giorgio Armani believes in belts; on the ramp this season, he takes a simplistic purple dress and transforms it into something that’s more along the lines of chic. All this just because of the large, intricate, and colorful belt. Who would’ve known?
There’s a few ways to wear a belt. For example, professional women wearing their black skirt and white blouse can mix and match with different types of belts. White belts with an intricate yet classy buckle or even playing with a little bit of color once in a while…it can change an entire outfit’s look.
There’s always room for creativity; a brown belt along with an all-black outfit or even a dressy shirt coupled with a belt to show-off your hips. Sonam Kapoor does a fantabulous job with showing her hips off. A puffy pair of pants and a flowery top goes a long way, but using that brown skinny belt completes the outfit.
So what are you waiting for? Before you go shopping for new outfits, recheck your closet. Who knows, maybe you’ll realize that old outfits can be revamped with something as simple as 40 inches of cloth.

Vogue Weekly
The Devil wears Prada, a film that promised to tell it like it is…offering insights into what goes on at a fashion magazine. Are they true or false..? Join me to find out for yourself!
Blue & Blah!!
Having lost yet another lovely weekend to manic Monday, the first day of the week is cruel for any kind of work. Getting in early, my first few moments are well spent. Relaxing in my chair and sipping a hot cup of coffee and warming up my brains. But it’s not long before the Voguette starts strutting in. The peace and serenity of the office is suddenly broken by the loud, clanking of the stilettos of the stars at Vogue.
It’s a temple of fashion worshippers, but the decibel level of clanking stilettos is much higher than temple bells, it’s almost like living next to the airport. As the decibel level peaks… you know that Vogue has officially started functioning.
It is an open office environment and yelling across the hall is imperative (telephone conversations are only for gossip). There’s leather and feather, fragrance and fur around me; and chatter centering on the latest shows, the recent opening of Zara and the sad demise of master McQueen. Folders and files steadily pile up on the desks, as the team monitor does her rounds. Work is happening faster than the bullet train at my end--the art desk that’s buried behind huge 17” Mac monsters!
Yes… we do eat!!
As forks and spoons with snacks and lunch boxes alight from the pantry… it’s clear that this is a Vogue that eats! ‘The boys’ as we call them run up and down like marching ants helping to keep everyone’s spirits high and happy, my favourite time of the day and probably the main ingredient to my happy world…!
There’s food all around you. Steamed but not boiled, baked but not fried.
“Oh I just had a quarter of a cube of cheese, no lunch for me…”
“Oh come-on!”
“No, I’ll be fat and then won’t be able to fit in my dress for the wedding next year! I think I’ll pass!!”
It’s a place where chocolate is a sin, cheese is crime and oily foods the outcast! Soymilk, green tea and salads are the different courses of meals. In total contrast to the rest of the office is the art department… It’s carb central. All the goodie stuff, even chocolates brought back from business or holiday trips only make it to the art desk! Kebabs, deserts, rolls, fried chicken and fish… the real action is all here!
Teatime on Tuesday
Time to catch up on deadlines, stories and yes… DEATHLY THREATS!! It’s the best time to get the daggers out… We gather in hushed voices in the conference room, wondering who is being guillotined today. “Why is it so late? How could you be so irresponsible? Make sure you don’t do it again! Can you give me an extended deadline, please? I promise I’ll do better then!
Fun Fridays!!
The same conference room turns into a wine and cheese central… There’s wine and cheese, beer and chips… Everyone indulges in chat, gossip and news. This side of the office mingles with that side…Vogue and GQ i.e.
And sometimes, there’s a birthday cake as well, sometimes a crazy party to celebrate something, like Christmas, or anniversary, a pool tournament even…really!
It’s almost like a farewell before the weekend. We are indeed a merry making family!
Branded- ‘Cinderella and her Choos’
Vintage is great, but last season is passé… it’s not too hard to believe that the girl who can kill you with her words is also a walking brand-store! The Leiber clutch, the Manolo boots and the stunning Stella dress…are some of the things that run in the Voguettes’ blood. The sharp tongue and the Chanel bag--two things that make Vogue what it is!! Afterall, before it’s in fashion, it’s in Vogue!
My awards for the week…
