AMRITA RAO SONAKSHI SINHA R umours were rife that Deepika Padukone would be the evening's showstopper but nobody was aware about the 'king-size' surprise that Manish had saved for the last. The show was almost over; the gorgeous Deepika dressed in a lavender lehenga ensemble accessorised with a heavy kundan neckpiece had dazzled all and we were waiting for the couturier to take the final bow when suddenly the lights dimmed and Shah Rukh Khan just casually sauntered in with his dear friend Manish. It was like a bonus gift. When the audience finally realised it was indeed the King Khan who had walked past them when they were looking elsewhere, everybody broke into an uproar of a kind that refused to calm down till the time their beloved actor was on stage. Manish recreates Karl Lagerfeld's magic: Remember the 'Paris- Bombay' themed fashion show in the winter of 2011 by Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld? The Grand Palais in Paris had undergone an exquisite transformation. Lagerfeld turned the entire runway area into a dining hall with banquet tables stationed at strategic spots, beautiful hanging chandeliers and lanterns, candle sticks and floral arrangements on tabletops to recreate an era of the British Raj. In conceptualising an India of the 1930s, Manish Malhotra too, seemed to take a leaf out of Lagerfeld's show. In style and architecture Manish's opulent set resembled the dining space of the royals where the Maharajas would enjoy a feast. Walking down the pillared corridors, models made their way to the dining area like maharanis strolling in with their entourage. Guests who are usually seated at the front row assumed the role of royals, posing as the king's special invitees who'd come to be part of this regal celebration. While Shashi Tharoor and wife Sunanda seemed much appreciative of the intricate designs and ensembles on display, designers like JJ Valaya and Manav Gangwani too applauded the impressive detailing of every outfit from their respective sofa-styled or wooden cushioned seats on the runway. For Manish Malhotra an anarkali is as elegant as an evening gown and probably this is the reason why the designer decided to present a fusion of the two varieties in his collection. Layered lehengas in bright shades of lavender, fuschia orange, wine red with elaborate gold embroidery and embellishment did justice to the imagination of a maharani dressed in aesthetic Victorian style. Backless cholis and short blouses with plunging necklines added sensuality to the overall ensemble range. ‘ A STYLISH LITTLE BLACK DRESS PAIRED WITH A DESIGNER CLUTCH AND HIGH HEELS, MAKES FOR A PERFECT EVENING WEAR. EXPERTS SAY ONE CAN WEAR ELEGANT EARRINGS AND EMBROIDERED JACKET OR SHRUG TO ADD THE GLAMOUR. 1. Statement neck jewellery: Opt for an elegant low-hanging pendant or a single neckpiece, for a sophisticated look. The jewellery definitely adds glamour to your outfit. 2. Chunky earrings: Plain gold or silver, or detailed chandelier earrings will work. Back comb your hair, go for a bun or loosely pin-up a few curls to complete the look. 3. Carry a clutch: A woman should always carry a stylish clutch. Whether you go for a vintage clutch or a purse with an edgy design, it will surely do wonders to your outfit. 4. An elegant blazer: By pairing it with an embroidered jacket, shrug or a blazer you can make your dress perfect for casual events and parties. For daytime, pick jackets or shrugs in brighter shades like yellow and orange while for evening parties go for silver, copper or gold. To add a little edginess to the outfit, you can also wear a leather jacket with bold shoulder design. 5. A pair of heels: Go for shoes that are comfortable and also look stylish. You can pair your black dress with stilettos, platform heels, designer boots and even flats. 6. A stylish belt: Waist belts do add glamour to your outfit. So jazz up your black dress and wear a silver or gold coloured belt embellished with semi-precious stones. You can also opt for a belt embellished with multi- coloured studs. ‘ STAYING FIT IS A PRIORITY FOR MOST PEOPLE THESE DAYS, SO MUCH SO THAT FITNESS CENTRES AND HEALTH FOOD OUTLETS HAVE BEEN THRIVING.

HOW TO INCREASEPOSITIVE ENERGY
AT HOMEFace east while praying.Kitchen is the symbol of prosperity - and should be ideallyplaced in the south east. Kitchen in the nor th or nor th eastmay bring financial and health problems. In this case hang 3bronze bowls upside down on the ceiling but do not hang overthe stove.Master bedroom is the Key to enter the door of stability and itmust be in the south west. You should sleep with your head inthe south or west. But a bread winner should never sleep inthe nor th east .Bath rooms and toilets have the energy of 'HELL' - which arebest in west or south. But should never be in nor th and nor theast or they bring financial, health and educational problems.Center is the nose of your house - from where your housebreaths. It must be open and clutter free. A wall here givesstomach and financial problems so fix a zero watt blue bulbon this wall and keep it on 24 *7.Cuts in any direction make a house paralyzed - mainly cuts insouth west, nor th, nor th east and south east give seriousproblems. There are many mysteries and secrets regardingthe cuts and their cures.An evil energy resides in the deep holes in the South West -underground water tank or a well here is the threatening de-fect. Water placement (only underground) is good in nor th,nor th east (not on the axis).Water streams, air cavities which are present 200 metersdown the ear th create a stress line and weaken the EMF ofthe ear th and give bir th to geopathic stress. Sleeping on se-vere geopathic stress is the main reason of major and recur-ring il lnesses.Divine secret - Last commandment is very impor tant. If youhave a very good house as per the vastu rules stated aboveand the flying Star Char t or the Feng Shui of your place isvery bad, the house is not auspicious. It will give miseries tothe occupant. And vice versa.
HIGH HEELS ARE HAZARDOUS,
A pair of high heels is like a must for every women asit makes them look chic and classy. But carrying itoff is difficult as it put them into difficult situations,
says a research. Research from Compeed, a foot-carebrand, has found that nearly half those women trying toarrive at work looking their best, get their heels caught in agrate, over a third have fallen over and 29 percent havetripped up the stairs, repor ts femalefirst.co.uk. The survey,which offers a comparison of high heel wearers acrossEurope, reveals its hazards are adding to commuting times.Ten percent of the British women surveyed, repor ted thatwearing high heels tags more than one hour a month totheir journey time. But it appears as if nothing will preventsome women from doing the daily commute in their highheels - 58 percent of British women will wear heels even ifthey are painful or uncomfor table and 13 percent (surveyed
between the age group of 25-34 years) admit they wear theirheels even if it makes them late for the office.The survey alsoreveals reasons why women are prepared to sacrifice bothcomfor t and punctuality for high heels. Over half of the womensurveyed stated that wearing heels gives them confidence and35 percent say their heels make them feel smar t, making itclear why women are determined to wear heels to work despitethe pitfalls they face. Alexandra Papa, spokesperson for theCompeed brand, said: "Interestingly, it is not just women thatare struggling due to their high heels, women's life and workbalance is also impacted by the high heel commute with 20percent of London ladies surveyed admitting that their heelshave caused them to miss their train." Sixty percent of womensurveyed have admitted to sacrificing their fashion preferencesdue to discomfor t and confessed to wearing flat shoes to work,then surreptitiously changing into their heels at their desks.
Eat right for your
workout regimeContd. from Page 25Fuel your body"Both pre and post workout diets are impor tant," says fitnessexpert Wanitha Ashok, adding, "Most people don't eat before aworkout and get tired easily because the superficial glucosegets exhausted and there is no fuel left in your body." Ideally,says Wanitha, an apple or a banana should suffice. But energybars are a strict no-no. "The idea behind working out is to loseweight. Have a glass of slim milk with a handful of cereal, orlow fat yoghur t. Maintain at least one-and-half hour gap be-tween a meal and your work out and drink a lot of water be-fore, during and after your workout."Keep your stomach light before cardioA pre-workout snack should have high carbohydrate content.Nutritionist Ashwini Sukumar, says, "In case of weight train-ing make sure to have a fruit or whole wheat bread and thelikes before your workout, but if you are going for cardio thentry to keep your stomach as empty as possible. Before cardio,a cup of green tea or a fruit is enough. Include bananas andmuesli in your diet."
