Bubble dress is back.. and how !

Everyone’s wearing em.. Bubble dresses with Spaghetti straps, sweetheart necklines, V-neck, strapless, empire waists, ruching to glamorously jewelled necklines… So many hot options to choose from.

Not only do they make the perfect cocktail dresses, they can be worn for a romantic date or on a night out with the girls. Quite literally, to any do you wanna turn heads at.

“This is a youthful, clean, classic cut with a little bit of edge,” says stylist Mariel Haenn.

Lisa Michelle—who put client Rosario Dawson in a Chloe minidress—suggests pairing the voluminous look with a high, high heel. “You want the rest of your body to look long and exaggerated,” she says. “Those afraid of adding bulk to womanly hips should consider a slighter pouf in a lightweight fabric. Or, if you’d prefer to showcase your curves, choose a bubble dress with a fitted back.”

Katie Holmes, the new style icon of Hollywood with her unmistakably sexy new found sense of style, didn’t fail to cause all the buzz in a silver beaded bubble dress by Armani.

Tip: keep em short, sexy, and chic !

Stunning actress, Jessica Alba dazzles in a strapless Gucci dress, and the ever growing and adorable baby bump, on the cover of Elle magazine for February 2008.

The engagement to boyfriend Cash Warren (son of actor Michael Warren), whom she met while making ‘Fantastic Four’ in 2004, and their first child who is due in early spring or summer of 2008, are two sweet joys this year has bought in for her.

She starts of saying, “I’m reading this dumb book, and it’s getting in my head,” as she digs through her giant studded Gerard Darel bag. “I was so nauseous reading this while I was on the bike today,” she says about the book which became an instant best-seller when Victoria Beckham was photographed carrying it.

Alba reads from the chapter concerning slaughterhouses,.. “cows and hogs are then ’strung up’ from the ceiling by a chain attached to their legs. In theory, while they dangle there, they are supposed to be unconscious. But often they are fully conscious, struggling, screaming, and fearfully staring at the workers while they have their throats stabbed open.”

Well, lets just add that up to the fact that keeping fit with refreshing workouts at Emerson Hall Fitness does come in handy for her.

Here’s what she wore for the issue’s shoot…

Printed silk and viscose dress, Chloé, $2,025, at Chloé, Las Vegas. Crystal bracelets, Tom Binns, $575-$675. Patent leather sandals, Burberry, $750.

Cotton T-shirt, Dolce & Gabbana, $250, at Dolce & Gabbana Boutique nationwide. Linen and silk skirt, Brian Reyes, $650. Glass stone bracelet, Chanel, $375. Chain belt, Lanvin, $985. Studded belt, Streets Ahead, $200.

Lacquered python jacket, price upon request, silk and cotton pants, $1,190, patent leather boots, $860, all, Gucci, at select Gucci stores nationwide. Sequin hooded sleeveless tank top, Emporio Armani, $795.

This is a Maya leather shoulder bag by Chloé, and it costs a pretty £782.78. 

The Violet large leather tote has two canvas straps to hold; seam and zip detailing,  zipped pocket at the front, an open pouch at the back, press stud flaps and a zip at the top to fasten. Bag is fully lined with an internal zip fastening pocket.

Now its kinda hard to figure out what really makes it so special to be credited as one of the biggest brightest accessory of this season… Yeah !

That just made me go ‘woah’ for a while..  And i was exactly,  that surprised here 

The other one seen is..

Maya large shoulder bag
£722.14

On the first look, i thought, this one being boasted as ‘the bag,’ for the season, isn’t any better than its friend sharing the screen space.. But, however, if your one big succer for Chloe, like me.. well ! more often than not atleast, you would care to look into the zip detail and the fact that its appeal, is gratifying to some extent…

But the only excuse one could possibly need to go ahead and dish out the £700 and more for any of these, is them being termed as ‘good.’
