Picture Of The Day: Ahana Deol in a Runaway Wedding Lehenga

Ahana Deol is busy with her marriage preparations and she visited the designer Amy Billimoria’s boutique to check out her new Runaway Bride line. The upcoming bride has chosen a raw silk peach wedding lehenga with silver gota cut work for the family function in Delhi with her in-laws.


She looks very pretty in this brand new bridal lehenga! Isn’t it? Love celebrity style!

Picture Of The Day: Wonderful Wedding Saree


We felt in love with the style of Bizatth during Osman and Saltanath's wedding ceremony. Thanks to the different shades of blue in her wedding saree, enriched with floral embroideries, she appeared radiant. The look is embellished by a black and blue wedding clutch, with dark purple patterns, and by a very trumpery golden and blue jewellery.
Another sensational celebrity style!

How To Choose A Perfect Wedding Clutch?


There are not rules about wedding style! Every celebrity tries to catch media attention with elegant and sophisticated dresses. However each woman knows that the key to make an outfit successful is an eye-catching accessory. If you are invited to a wedding you have to keep in mind that there are rules in choosing both the dress and the accessories for that day. Shoes and bags usually are coordinated, but in order to choose your wedding clutch you can also have a look at what celebrities have chosen. There are some practical and easy rules to follow. First of all, the size of the bag must be small. The smaller is the wedding clutch the more elegant and precious it seems.  After you have also to consider the shape, usually it is rectangular or oval, in both cases rigid. Embroideries make even more precious the clutch.
Often celebrities choose the basic colour of the bag according to the main colour of the dress and of its embroideries. For instance, the beautiful Shamita Shetty chosen to match an oval grey and silver wedding clutch to the silver embroideries of her pink dress in the occasion of Esha Deol's wedding reception. At the same event , Tabu wore a yellow dress with gold details, handling a gold wedding clutch.


Anyway, the formula of matching gold or silver wedding clutch with the details of the dress is not always respected: Anees looked perfect in her Indian attire at Osman and Saltanath's wedding ceremony, held in Hyderabad, combining a gold details dress with a golden clutch.
