Celebrities and their Watches

I have a watch fetish and its fun to see which watch is adorned in the hands of celebs.

Lets check out some of their watches.

1. Reese Witherspoon - In real life its the Rolex President in yellow gold that adornes her wrist most of the times. Reese has some sentimental values attached to her Rolex President. Though, in the movie 'Four Chritmases', Reese Witherspoon was wearing the fab Cartier Roadster Watch. I totally love Cartier Roadster.

.
2. Princess Diana - The elegant and sophisticated Princess Diana used to wear an 18 carat Cartier Tank Francaise watch.

Cartier's Tank Watch is quite popular with celebrities and is adorned on the wrists of the likes of Angelina Jolie, Naomi Campbell, Uma Thurman, Pierce Brosnan. Even the late US President John F. Keneddy was a fan of Cartier Tank Watch. Even the First Lady Michelle Obama has been spotted wearing a Tank Francaise. Louis Cartier's Tank watch has been the cult object du jour since decades and continues to be so.

Cartier watches are known for attracting celebrities and royalty, as they are without a doubt the crème-de-la-crème of fine watch making. Whether your taste in watches is flamboyant or conservative, modern or classic, there is a distinctive Cartier timepiece just for you.

You like Cartier Tank Watch?

3. Shilpa Shetty - Shilpa Shetty wears a huge men sized Rolex Yacht-Master.

There is something with celebs and Rolex. I think there wouldn't be any celebrity without a Rolex - Cameron Diaz, Jessica Alba, Will Smith, Saif Ali Khan, Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman, Tobey Maguire, Mean Fox, Sarah Jessica Parker and the list goes on...

.
4. Britney Spears - Britney wears Roger Dubuis watch. Among her favorites, there are also Chopard Montres Dame and Breitling watches.

.
5. Halle Berry - The sexy Halle Berry loves wearing her Franck Muller Casablanca 2852.

.
6. Sylvester Stallone - You may not know but Stallone has a watch fetish and has a huge watch collection. His favourite though is watches by Panerai, which he is often seen wearing.

Emma Watson - Looking Lovely in Teen Vogue

British star Emma Watson, famous for her role in Harry Potter, looks lovely in Teen Vogue's August 2009 edition.
.

.
Emma on her style: She likes to play safe with the sophisticated Chanel. She says,"I live, really, in jeans from Topshop, blazers from Ralph Lauren or Reiss, and ballet flats. It’s very hard to describe your own style and I’m young, so I’m still experimenting. But I think it’s quite British and very much about individuality. There’s nothing interesting about looking perfect—you lose the point. You want what you’re wearing to say something about you, about who you are".

From 2001 to 2007, Ms Watson starred in five Harry Potter films alongside Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint. Her role in Harry Potter has won her several awards.

In case you don't know, Emma is also the new face of Burberry, and currently feaures in their Autumn Winter 2009 Campaign. British girl, for a British brand.

Tanks, Vests & Camis - your style Statement

When comfort, style and chic all come together with one piece of clothing, what more could you ask? This summer's vests, tees and camis are colourful and fun - you can play with ruffles, lace, colours, prints and sheer. There surely is a style for every occassion.
.
All from River Island

This season tees, tanks, camis and vests have restyled themselves and are the epitome of comfort and chic. You can dress them up or down, depending on the weather and occassion.

And who says your tanks and camisoles are only meant for the the beach or running errands for the day? They have taken a whole new dimension. You can wear it to the office, for a evening party or to a girls lunch-out.

I know, for most of us, anything other than denims to team with your tank or tee sounds doubtful. But give it a shot.

A formal jacket with slim pants and a colourful cami or V-neck T and smart shoes can be worn at the office, and would definitely break the everyday monotonous office look. For a night-out or a party, throw in come sexy strappy heels and metallic clutch, with smart black demins and a hot pink cami, and you will totally look chic.

Pair a light, ruffled or lacy cami-top with a tiered skirt or this season's hottest mini-tulip skirt (ones which is softly gathered at the waistband, with gentle folds and pleats that create the illusion of a slimmer waist), to look like a million bucks. Want to wear it differently? Feminine, scalloped-lace-trimmed cami with V-neckline is perfect peeking out beneath a sweater or jacket.

Top from River Island for £15, Skirt from Dorothy Perkins for £25 and shoes from Dune for £85.

For a more sophisticated look, team a ruffle cami with smart cotton shorts or cropped pants. You can dress it up with a cardi and accessorise it well. This cami-look can be easily worn for a lunch or dinner date, just a simple get together, for shopping or travelling.

All from Reiss

You can so totally dress up your simple vest with slim fit or skinny jeans and a dressy blazer. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so see for yourself:

Best Face Wash..... Ever

Finally I am back on track and sorry for writing this post after a long time. I was on a holiday, but now I am back with lots of fashion and beauty updates to share with.

Do you have oily or acne prone skin? Sometimes you get a breakout and have tried numerous products that have all stopped working now? Well girls, I have found a perfect solution for the problem, i.e. Dr Sebagh's Breakout Foaming Cleanser.

On my way to the Holiday, I saw, the very famous and much read about, Dr Sebagh's skin line at Heathrow Airport's duty free shop and ended up buying his Breakout Foaming Cleanser (face wash for oily skin), for £18.57 . I must say, I am totally loving this product.

Just for a brief intro, Dr Jean-Louis Sebagh has over 20 years of experience working with some of the most famous faces in the world. He is known for his anti-ageing treatments and was one of the first doctors to use Botox for cosmetic purposes. His incredible skincare range, though a bit pricey, is loved by celebrities and has made a breakthough ever since its launch.

Coming back to the face wash, within 3 days of use my acnes nearly vanished (I am prone to small acnes when I travel or disturb my normal routine). And now after two weeks of using it, my skin is clear and feels a lot better. It does not make my skin dry and does not cause any irritation.

I read the product reviews, and everyone who used it totally loves the product.

At £18.57 from the duty free [and £21.50 (or $55) otherwise], the product is not very cheap, but certainly not very expensive either. And its absolutely worth the price. After all its your skin, and you can't compromise here, can you?

You can buy the Dr Sebagh Breakout Foaming Cleanser, 100ml, from Barneys at $55 (USA) or from John Lewis at £21.50 (UK). You can get information on other breakthrough products of Dr Sebagh from their website. If you are looking for a good anti-ageing cream, my suggestion would be trying one of his products.

Summer Must Haves

Summer 2009 is colourful - move away from the Autumn's purples and blacks and add bright blocks of juicy citrus colour. Its time for you to transform your dull winter wardrobe into a vibrant, fresh season of colourful brights with these must have items.

What's out - What's in: Out goes heavy lace and in comes floaty sheer fabrics in romantic nudes, shimmering draping

No Summer wardrobe is complete without a pair of gladiator shoes whether the practical flats for the day or the supremely high heels for night. For your ultimate guide to the hottest trends this season read on.

1. Block Colours - Eye-popping block colour is one of the main trends this season. A flash of bright colour in bold combinations, brilliant versions of yellows, oranges, greens, blues and pinks will send your wardrobe into a spin, with true style stars sporting clashing blocks of orange, cerise and yellow. I know this is not the first time I am saying this. Can't help, its a rage this season and it sure deserves too. Colour block shoes and dresses are popular picks.
.

2. Asymmetric necklines - No matter wht your age, show off your shoulders with asymmetric necklines in dresses and tops. There are loads of colourful dresses in the stores with asymmetric necklines from River Island to Karen Millen, you'll find one to suit your budget and style.

3. Romantic Nudes - For those of us seeking an alternative to bright colours or a black and white ensemble, you sure have a pretty choice to make -nudes and neutrals. Clothes in flesh and beige tones with matching accessories were a rage on the runway from Lanvin to Christian Dior to Stella McCartney everyone had their shade of nude on display. Tip? Don't think nude will wash offyour colour, the key is to find the perfect hue in nude that suits your skin - it might be a bit more pinkish or grayish; you just have to keep looking.

4. Colourful Ts, Tanks, Camis and Vests - Ts, tanks, camis and vests are without a doubt staple items of every woman's wardrobe. But this summer's vests, tees and camis are colourful and fun. You can play with ruffles, lace, colours, prints and sheer, or keep them to the basic whites or blacks. But there surely is more drama to them than your regular vests,or may I say you can add drama to them by accesorising and pairing them with season's key items? Neon pink, bright yellow, burnt or bright orange, electric blue, bright green are the favourite colours of the season. Pick your favoruite colour and style, to make a style statement this summer.
.
5. Gladiator Shoes - Like last seson, Gladiator shoes have become a rage. Every sixth girl in ten is wearing gladiator shoes on the streets of London (or may I say everywhere?). You can't just do without them this summer. Its an absolute must buy. And this time its not just in simple tan or black, but there are gladiator shoes in bright colours like pink, lime, purple, in beads and bejweled. Wear them and show off your well-pedicured colourful nails in neons, reds and pinks.
