what’s your favorite Fall boot?
Few things get me as excited as Fall boots. It is, by far, my favorite purchase of the year. I save up all Summer to be able to get the absolute ‘best’ pair. By “best”, I mean my favorite for the season.
I love the way the leather smells, I love the way they look with denim, and sometimes I just love to admire them in my closet. If you get the right pair of boots, they become the focus. The ‘right’ pair of boots makes even the simplest outfit (jeans and a tee) look phenomenal. That alone is worth a Summer’s worth of savings!
I’m no where near making my decision on which boot I will purchase. I’m a bit conflicted at the moment. While I always love a tall brown boot, I’m also loving the edgy black boot of the season. What’s a girl to do? What boot are you leaning toward?
Indira Vizha Namitha - Only Glamour Overdose
Here is what Namitha said enthusiastically about her role in Indira Vizha “It’s an unusual character that goes from bubbly to bitter due to her circumstances. You are going to see my potential as an actress in it. A lot of people were shocked at my performance” Not just that, she even watched a lot of movies featuring Demi Moore and Sharon Stone to get the right body language. But what I learned from the reviews after release is Namitha has been swindled by director Rajeshwar who convinced her about exemplary role, which eventually turned out to be a ludicrous show.
Indra Vizha is about Kamini (Namitha) who meets Sridhar (Srikanth) during one of her modeling assignments. She joins a TV channel with the help of Srikanth. Both of them fall in love, but Namitha is not satisfied with what she has and she marries Nasser who is the head of the TV channel. Now Kamini wants the best of both Worlds, the money that Nasser has and her old love Srikanth. But Sridhar is a man of ideals and he does not fall prey to her intentions. A spurned Kamini accuses Sridhar of sexual harassment and files a case against him. How Sridhar defends himself forms the climax of the story. The character of Namitha in Indira Vizha is of the outlook that ‘one can succeed even at the cost of one’s ideals’ Indira Vizha is a sleazier version of Barry Levinson’s Michael Douglas-Demi Moore Disclosure (1994).
Namitha seems to be assuming herself that she has done something better. But the film is made purely to titillate and is full of half naked females in the form of Namitha, who has exposed the maximum along with Ragasiya, new girl Hema Malini and a pole dancer in a bar! Forget the sexual content of the movie, what irritates you the most is the half a dozen songs inside night clubs, that comes at regular intervals. The movie seems to be constructed exclusively around vulgar glamour and it has been made with the sole intent of making full use of Namitha’s oomph factor. Namitha is all about glamour gone overboard and nothing else. Titillation doesn’t end with just Namitha or her costumes, there are loads of explicit stuff in the name of dialogues and double entendres appear in every other frame. No surprises as to why this film was given an A certificate. Overall the movie is mainly focused on Namitha’s glamour and will be a treat only to her fans.
Interview with a Fashion Blogger: Fashion Me Fabulous
Tell us about yourself and how you started blogging.
Jael Paris: I'm a 26-year old word nerd from Indiana. Both of my parents were clothes horses, so I come by it naturally. Becca said, "Hey, stylish friend of mine, please write for my blog." I'm certainly not an expert in the field of fashion, but I love to read about fashion history and design principles.
Becca: I’m a 24-year old Detrioter living in Chicago and a writer and editor working in online media. I started blogging to keep my portfolio current after college. I don’t have a formal fashion background, but I always dreamed of working at a fashion magazine, which is why I chose to blog about fashion.
Tell us more about Fashion Me Fabulous.
Jael Paris: Fashion Me Fabulous is like a shopping trip with your girlfriends. It's meant to be light and fun. We've geared it toward other young women who enjoy being cute and funky while still being practical. If you look at our tags, you'll notice we love talking about dresses, shoes, and independent designers on Etsy. Our Etsy love is fierce.
Becca: Fashion Me Fabulous is a general fashion/shopping blog. It was started in September of 2007. FMF focuses on affordable, accessible fashion. Both Jael and I are from the Midwest so we love to write about fashion that is accessible, practical and available everywhere, rather than just in major fashion cities. We love to discuss shoes, vintage clothing, great Etsy shops, thrift stores, and fashion as art and expression.
How did you discover Polyvore? And what do you like most about it?
Jael Paris: I used to do ‘Play the Shoe Stylist’ on Shoewawa and another reader submitted a set using Polyvore. I've been on almost every day since then. It's a perfect way to experiment with trends and Polyvore also helps me get a quick view of what is popular.
How do you use Polyvore sets on your blog?
Jael Paris: We use Polyvore sets at least once a week in our $150 Challenge. Fridays are frequently about whatever is currently inspiring me, and I'll throw together a handful of looks based on a theme like military clothing or the work of Alphonse Mucha.
Tell us about your favorite post on Fashion Me Fabulous blog that featured Polyvore sets.
Jael Paris: Just focusing on text, I like my post about my own style evolution. The sets I put together illustrate my points better than old photographs would have. If we're just going off of the set itself, I love the anti-Valentine's look I put together for my friend whose husband was overseas at the time. It's a great example of how Polyvore allows me to use clothing to say more than "Pretty! Want! Trendy!"
Becca: I love the Outfit Inspiration posts Jael writes with artists as inspiration (Alphonse Mucha, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock). It's like she uses Polyvore to create mini fashion editorials
[Jael Paris: Those artist inspiration posts were actually the suggestion of a reader.]
Has Polyvore made it easier for you to blog about fashion? Jael Paris: Polyvore makes it much easier to keep track of trends and which designer showed what. I've found a few times that I needed to find something from a few seasons ago, and Polyvore was the only place I could find it. Plus, I'm web-shy because of work, and I can use Polyvore to illustrate an outfit without posting pictures of myself. What are your favorite brands/designers? Jael Paris: I'm a McQueen nut; he appeals to my macabre-feminine aesthetic. You could call me an Anglophile, because I love Marios Swab and Gareth Pugh, too. This season, I'm also into clothes from Dolce & Gabana, Balmain, and accessories by Viktor & Rolf. Dior and Fendi have yet to disappoint. Becca: I dream of Chanel, a J. Mendel evening gown, Vera Wang, Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs, a great Betsey Johnson party frock, Christian Dior, Givenchy, Oscar de la Renta, Prada, a Burberry trench coat, a DVF wrap dress... This list does not have an end. What's your trend forecast for the coming season? Jael Paris: The economy is not doing well, and design houses are suffering along with us. Most of the runway looks for Fall/Winter 09 were hesitant to push new trends. Expect a continuation of what we've seen for a few seasons -- big shoulders, rock star edge, belts, sequins, major shoes and piles of black. How would you like to impact the fashion world and can Polyvore help you? Jael Paris: If anything, we want women to be comfortable with who they are. Polyvore is a place for experimentation and expression, so we're a good mix. Last, but never least... Got any feature requests for the Polyvore team? Jael Paris: I wouldn't mind a rotating tool in the editor or being able to search my items by color.

Nayanthara and Prabhu deva never bothers about morality
Canadian-born U.S. film actor Donald Sutherland said “When you're working for a good director, you become subjective and submissive. You become his concubine. All that you seek is his pleasure” This saying is about the contribution of an actress in bringing out a good film by delivering her best as conceived by the director. But Nayanthara misunderstood the saying and her affair with Prabhu Deva has now become an open secret.
The latest news is Nayanthara negotiated with Prabhu Deva’s wife Ramlath in the hopes of reaching a mutually satisfying agreement. Nayanthara personally met Ramlath and assured her that there won’t be any trouble from her side and Ramlath need not resort to the divorce idea. And both of them would amicably live with Prabhu Deva. Ramlath quietly listened to the decision of Nayanthara as she had no other go. Taking the silence of Ramlath as her concurrence to the decision, Nayanthara introduced Prabhu Deva to his brother in Dubai. She revealed this fact to a website recently. When asked about when she is getting married or is it already over, she dodged. But she told that she will definitely invite everybody and publicly announce her marriage.
Nayanthara should have given a thought to the following anonymous sayings “A wife is sought for her virtue, a concubine for her beauty” and “The first wife is matrimony, the second company, the third heresy” Prabhu Deva was gossiped with every heroine he paired when he was a busy hero because of his playboy activities. He knows how to trap heroines and least bothers about morality. This compromise idea initiated by Nayanthara reveals that she considered the advice of Rajnikanth to some extent and tried to behave morally. U.S. Writer Ernest Hemingway said “What is moral is what you feel good after, and what is immoral is what you feel bad after”
