Freshers 2010

All right. So the "much awaited, anticipated" event of ISB&M is finally done. And after the party, I have come to a single conclusion. By starting this blog, I not only hope people will read but also by the end of the PG programme, a lot of them will also learn how to dress well.
        The dress code was: Emo for guys and one-piece for girls. The guys sure didn't have a lot to worry about given the fact that a black tee with jeans and converse (or the like) would have done the trick. Of course having a girlfriend gave a few an added advantage of kajal n black nail colour. The media guys did pay a lot of attention to their looks, (the vain lot that they are.) The management guys...i think they are best left unspoken about. I get the fact that dancing makes people sweat but to strip off your shirts and show off not even visible 2-pack is plain scary. But of course, my blog would be incomplete if i didn't mention this bit. So guys, the next time, plz try to keep it down (n i meant your shirts.)
       Coming to the girls, I recently heard (after the party, that is) some girl asked another one where would she get the most expensive dress because she wanted to look the hottest in the party. Well lady, newsflash: the most expensive dress does not make you look the hottest. Its all about carrying yourself in what you wear. And I must make a special mention of the fact that inspite of all the "wanting" the dress definitely did not have the desired effect. Coming to the "Clash of civilizations" dress, a mixture of Athens, Rome and Greece???? Why??? One word to describe it: F-U-G-L-Y (find the meaning yourself for those who don't know it.) Might I also add, go SUBTLE on the make-up honey and chose the compact that matches your skin tone.
      There were, however a lot of pretty faces and dresses as well. I mean freshers is not everyday so a lot of women did take pains to get ready. Some looked good and some, well...let's just say did not really get the look. Of the lot, n i'm sure they would not mind me mentioning their names, n even if they do, they know i'm unfazed. Ambalika, Neha, Sakshi, Akansha, Aditi (purple suits you), and a whole lot more whose names i don't recall at the moment, did do justice to what they were wearing. Also, i don't know if anyone else noticed this, but for a few girls, the more high they got on their drinks, the higher up went their dresses. So much for wearing the LBD.
       A piece of advice to women who are well-endowed: it would do mankind a whole lot of good if you wore your tubes slightly higher and not jumped around. After all, we would want life to thrive and not perish. Especially when we are studying and have yet to see the "cruel world outside." Apart from all that, we did get a glimpse of perfection (read that as 10/10), make-up: check, dress: check, shoes: to match. So what's wrong??? Transparent straps which glisten like plastic ruined the look (did i mention the bit where underwear is unchecked) and shoes: LORDY. Golden slip-ons with diamonds. It's only freshers sweety not a marriage ceremony. Talking about shoes, how can I forget about my last target, dress: LBD- sheer perfection with just the right tinge of gold, make-up: to match, shoes: black slip-ons with silver straps??? What were you thinking???
     Though I won't suggest you to follow Lady Gaga's footsteps when it comes to fashion, given her recent debacle at the music awards, you should hear her track- Fashion. I couldn't agree more. After all, a girl's just as hot as the shoes she choose.
