Saif Ali Khan: I acted in self-defence Bollywood's move
The actor said he was surprised and "contempt" for the first time during the "ugly incident" in a five star hotel on Monday night. On Wednesday, the police registered a complaint against the actor for allegedly assaulting a businessman in South Africa. Later Wednesday evening, Khan was arrested and immediately released on bail after paying 15,000 rupees ($ 304, £ 194). The incident occurred when Khan dined with actress girlfriend Kareena Kapoor and many others in the restaurant at the Taj. The couple were very popular Bollywood Saifeena dubbed the paparazzi. Police said the businessman, Iqbal Sharma, was treated at a hospital with a broken nose. "False allegations" "I was amazed at first. I acted in self-defense," the actor told reporters outside his home in Mumbai early on Thursday. "I am a law-abiding citizen. All charges against me are false, and justice will prevail," he said.
"But I'm not proud of what happened. It could have been handled differently. I had a better example. I'm sorry I reacted," he said.
Khan filed a complaint against Mr. Sharma, alleging that he was hit in the eye.
In turn, Iqbal Sharma told reporters: "We will pursue this to the fullest extent of the law and we will examine the options for civil procedure."
"The fight began after a businessman, who was sitting at the next table, said the actor and his friends to soften their volume," a police official told reporters Wednesda
y.He said the attack had been recorded in the stars and the investigation has already begun.
This is the second attack on the actor - in 2008, he was accused of assaulting a journalist.
Khan has acted in over 40 films and has received praise for Omkara, Bollywood version of Othello by William Shakespeare.
His agent's long-awaited film with Vinod girlfriend Kareena, due to hit screen on March 23.
He is the son of former Indian cricket captain Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi and Sharmila Tagore, a former actress.

Shirish Kunder said Khan was "drunk" and he pushed and pulled his hair.
Later, Kunder said that "the heart to heart talk" with Khan, and they "solved all a misunderstanding."

Will Dabangg 2 on TV for Rs 50 crore?
Until recently, it was headed for the price tables television rights Agneepath films costly. Trade estimates of the state, Zee Network has paid about Rs 41 lakh for it, defeating Hrithik Roshan, Krrish, starring Aamir Khan and three Talaash 2011, Ra.One with Shah Rukh Khan. Now it seems Star Network
Dabangg picked the future, we plan to go upstairs in the first half of March, about 45 to Rs 50 lakh.
Hemal Jhaveri, CEO of Gold Star, allows for the sale was a record, although he avoids revealing the exact number. "We have the largest library of films of Salman. It made sense to buy Dabangg 2, since its latest release, The Bodyguard (2011), ranked first, and took about 11 points in the ratings. shows that followed fared well too, "he said.
By Amod Mehra tradesmith, heroes like Salman basis, Amir, Shahrukh, Hrithik and Akshay Kumar are only one or two issues per year. Thus, the major networks are willing to go the extra mile to get the television rights to their films.
"Ra.One may not have been the box office, but he is well on television. Agneepath will be received too well. Even the sponsors do not like to advertise, when the first is less than the trumpet "said Amod, indicating that prices are no longer a problem for chains leading." Salman ordered a great value now. "Gad Jayantilal Pen India Pvt Ltd, which acquired the film for large networks, estimated that new big-budget movies are announced regularly, it would be impossible to reach a new record this year, or Salman. ". Sometimes, the f
ilms will be announced, but not to move forward, and some of them were taken to the floor immediately purchase and sale of television rights also depends on whether the film would never see the light the day, "he explains, adding:" I'm sure some movies in the pipeline, a leading network will compete for. And one of them can get a higher price than Dabangg 2 ".Salman, who had just returned from Cuba, and will play the character of Chulbul Pandey in further hit in 2010, admits he did not know the details of the sale:. "Arbaaz (Khan) is the best person to comment on this if the news is true, I will be very happy." Arbaaz has remained unavailable for comment. Regarding the sale of television rights is one of the best tools for producers to recover their production costs, Amod said: "The budget Dabangg 2 will not exceed Rs R70 And they have about 45-50 lakh rupees. ". Jayantilal adds:" First, the audio rights guaranteed recovery of production costs, it then became a video now, and satellite TV
Review: NARS Sheer Glow in Mont Blanc
Blogger fail. 100% fail. Someone come and take all my midterms and go to all my meetings for me, okay? Blargh.
Well, on a less fail-tastic note, I have a foundation review for y'all! Before I get to the review, let me give you some background on my skin and foundation routine.
My skin is combination, meaning that it's dry on the cheeks but oily on the t-zone. I have the occasional breakout, redness, and acne scarring that I want covered up. I used to use MAC's Face & Body foundation, which is a water-based, very sheer foundation. I really like how it sits on my skin and doesn't break me out, but Face & Body comes in a limited shade range (and was always too dark for me), and since it's so sheer, I have to use a LOT of product to get the coverage I want. On top of that, it oxidizes throughout the day and doesn't have the best lasting power. So I wanted a foundation that would match my NW-15/20 skin, not break me out, last through the whole day, and cover all my blemishes. I also like a dewy finish, and not a very matte finish, because I feel like it makes me skin look fresher and more radiant.
I decided to pick up NARS Sheer Glow because I'd seen it in action on Pixi2Woo's YouTube channel (look her up, she is fab), and it looked so natural but had such nice coverage. So I ran to Sephora with my Christmas money, did some arm swatches, and picked up a bottle of Siberia. The Nars Sheer Glow foundations are named after locations--so Siberia is snow-white. Which made me cry a little instead about how pale that I am. Siberia is the lightest Nars shade with both pink and yellow undertones.
Well, Siberia worked on my face in the store, but when I tried it in my bathroom the next morning, it was "Hello there, Casper!" I looked dead. So I ran back to Sephora and exchanged Siberia for Mont Blanc, which Sephora calls "fair with slight pink undertones." Mont Blanc is a much better match for my NW-15/20 skin, but I love that NARS has a good amount of options for us crazy-fair people.
Here's the 1 oz. bottle, and a swatch on my hand--it's blended out a little to the left.
And here's a less than adorable picture of me so that y'all can see what it looks like on my skin.
Let's break it down.
Application: I uncap it (sadly there's no included pump, but you can buy one from NARS), put my finger on the opening of the bottle, and flip it over so that I get a little product on my finger. Then I rub it into my skin with my fingers in a circular motion. I really like how this applies with my fingers, but I've never been a foundation brush kind of gal. I use about one finger dab on each cheek and one on my forehead, and then I go back for more if I need more coverage. Then I put on concealer and set it with powder.
Formula/lasting power: Sheer Glow is a relatively thick liquid foundation, but I find that it goes on easily and blends nicely without looking heavy or cakey. What I find really interesting about this foundation is that it's called Sheer Glow, and there is a Sheer Matte version, so this one is supposed to be dewy. But when I put it on, it somehow manages to cut down on the oiliness on my t-zone while making the drier parts of my face look dewier and more radiant. It certainly doesn't make me look oilier, which was what I expected from a 'glow' foundation. The one problem I have with the formula is that it emphasizes any dry flakes that I have, and makes them look much worse. So if you have really dry since, it's not for you. In terms of lasting power, I can actually get from 9AM to midnight or later with only minimal touch-ups and no oxidation. It really hangs on! It definitely fades faster on the oilier parts of my face, but even that is barely noticeable.
Coverage: My skin has gotten better, but I do have occasional breakouts, redness, and scarring, so I want at least a medium coverage foundation. This is called Sheer Glow, but I find even with one layer I get medium coverage. With two thin layers I get almost flawless looking skin that doesn't look too heavy, which is lovely.
Color: I am very pale, with lots of pink undertones to my skin. Mont Blanc is a perfect match in terms of how pink my skin is, but it is the tiniest bit dark for me. Given that Siberia is way too light, Mont Blanc works fine, but I do have to be careful with blending at my hairline. I think that if you're a MAC NW-15/20, Mont Blanc would be a great match for you.
Packaging: I love the heavy glass bottle. It feels very luxurious. The packaging is standard NARS, with the pretty black lid that collects fingerprints and dust like no other. I also don't love that this has no pump--much less hygienic.
Awkward Chic rating: A. I don't love that it has no pump and that it's $42 for a 1 oz. bottle. But I think I can get 4-6 months out of each bottle, so it's expensive, but doable. In terms of the physical foundation, I love it. The shade range is great, and it works so well for combination skin, has lovely coverage, and a really natural-looking finish. I'm calling this Holy Grail for me (as of right now. Don't hold me to that).
In other news, Anastasia Beverly Hills sent me these adorable brow guides. They're breakdowns of how to get different brow styles, as seen on some of your favorite past and present Hollywood Starlets, and product suggestions. Personally, I love that Bombshell Brow.

Review: Fresh Sugar Rosé Tinted Lip Balm
I feel like I've started every post this semester with something along the lines of, "I promise, I didn't die."
Well, I promise I didn't die. So much busy, so little sleep, so little free times (all of which are being spent watching The West Wing, which I am now hopelessly obsessed with. Someone make me a White House Press Secretary, okay?). Anyways, I've bought some stuff over the last month that I'm going to try to review, starting with this lip balm.
I really, really wanted to hate this product. I know that sounds weird. But I've seen so much about these floating around the Internet, mostly positive, some negative, but all pointing towards me loving it. Do I want to love a sheer, $22 lip balm? No. Not at all. $22 for lip balm is kind of obscene. Did I end up loving it in spite of that? Sadly, yes.
I'm talking about the Fresh Sugar lip balms. They are all $22.50 at sephora.com, come in a wide range of colors with SPF 15, and are basically the best thing since slice bread and Nutella. So the colors are Original (clear), Coral, Rosé (berry rose), Honey (nude), Passion (crimson red), and Plum (berry plum). I would have picked up Coral, but it came out just about a week after I originally bought Rosé, which is what's pictured below. It's not really worth swatching, because the picture is pretty true to life and it swatches pretty sheer.
Here's the rundown:
Packaging: Oh, the most excellent of packaging. First off, it comes in a pretty, printed little box that was almost too lovely to throw away. The actual tube itself is metal, and has a really nice, luxurious weight to it. You twist off the cap, and then twist up the base to push up the lip balm. I love this packaging. It looks gorgeous, it feels expensive (haha, well, it is), and it's functional--I never loose the lid in my purse and risk damaging the lip balm.
Formula: Oh goodness. It goes on like butter. It really does feel like a balm, in that it actually goes beyond the surface of my lips to deal with dryness, and doesn't just sit on top of them. My lips are noticeably less chapped when I use this on a daily basis. Furthermore, the lasting power of this balm is impressive. I can still feel it on my lips more than 2 hours later, which is more than I can say for most lip products. The SPF is a really pleasant bonus here. Plus, it tastes like lemon cookies! The taste/smell doesn't linger, but it's yummy.
Color: Sephora describes this as a berry rose, which I'd say is pretty accurate. On me it goes on as a sheer pink-red that amps up the color of my lips just enough to be noticeable but not so much that I can't apply this without a mirror. I am a huge fan of sheer lip colors that still pack a color punch, and am dying to try the Coral and Nude versions of this.
Awkward Chic rating: A reluctant A. It's overpriced, and I'm probably going to go through a tube of this in a few months, but I LOVE IT. I use it all the time. It's upsettingly fabulous. I will probably spend an obscene amount of money on these.

Rory Beca for Forever 21
I think I was the only person in the blogosphere that I forgot that Rory Beca was doing a series of capsule collections with Forever 21. Because I walked into my Forever 21 a few weeks ago and actually kind of screamed to myself. Apparently there have been 3 collections so far, with the most recent one coming out a few weeks ago.
Guys, it's so cute. I wanted to buy all the things in the collection. ALL OF THEM. I ended up only buying one, because while I love diaphanous, gauzy maxi dresses and tanks on most people, I cannot pull them all off. Sob. But here are some of my favorite pieces from the most recent collection (which you should rush over to Forever 21 and buy immediately).
So these two dresses are both sold out online, but they are so cute. I really like the subtle fishtail hems going on here--it's an easy way to try out the trend, especially since none of the pieces in this collection cost more than $30. I really like the sportiness of the purple dress, with the thick horizontal stripes. The combination of the fitted top and a-line skirt is really cute and flattering. I bought the green dress (actually much greener in real life), and it was like $25, and it is fantastic. It's a muted hunter green with blue undertones in a silky (admittedly man-made) fabric with laser-cut patterning along the hem. The laser-cutting is so lovely. It looks really delicate and just plain fancy in person. The drawstring waist gives it some shape, and the straps are adjustable. I've worn it about 3 times, and gotten at least 5 compliments each time.
Watercolor Skirt, $17.80 at forever21.com, Textured heart skirt, $24.80 at forever21.com: How cute is the pattern on that watercolor skirt? For $17, that's a pretty versatile piece, and a nicely flattering cut. But I really want that heart skirt! I want to do maxi skirts, but the sheer + mini combo is just so much more flattering than a real maxi skirt. Plus it's a lot fresher feeling, and the heart pattern adds a lot of visual interest. AND IT'S LESS THAN $25. I want to buy it and wear it with a fitted pastel tank and a lot of necklaces and some sassy shoes.

Outfit of the Day: Madewell
So yesterday I did this thing were I went out and I bought clothes...and it was so great. I LOVE SHOPPING, GUYS. I love it.
ANYWAYS. I got an adorable little lace, '50s dress from H&M that I will probably put pictures up of next week, and in the meantime I have an outfit of the day for y'all. (Notice the excellent lighting and high-quality camera-work. Jokes). I'm wearing a Madewell sweaterdress, Hue brown tights, a vintage belt, and Frye Melissa button boots.
So the story with this dress. I hate sweaterdresses. They scare me. They are generally so not flattering, with the thick, clingy knit fabric. This one, however, is a nice balance of warm but not bulky fabric and a close, but not clingy fit. Horizontal stripes also usually scare me, but I think the thickness of the stripes and their cream/coral palette makes them feel fun and fresh. It has a flattering v-neck and thin stripes on the sleeve cuffs with little buttons down the back, and it's really comfy and I love it. I'm not a preppy girl at ALL, but I really like this with tights and equestrian boots. It feels very clean and classic.
AND IT WAS $20. It was on sale at Madewell for $30 in store, and then it was on double sale! For $20, it was a total steal, especially since I think it can be dressed up or down nicely, and work for class or work.

Outfit of the Day and Zoya
I got a dress from H&M this weekend! I really like it. It was like $45, it's fitted through the waist with an a-line skirt, an exposed zipper up the back, no sleeves, and a high-ish neckline. I'm really feeling higher necklines these days. This is big for me. The fabric is thick and stretchy cream with a black lace overlay tacked on top. It looks really expensive...but it wasn't! I'm wearing it with a vintage Bergdorf Goodman belt, a Walter jacket, Hue tights and Frye Carmen short boots.
What I really like about this dress is one, that it's so comfy but it looks really put together, and two, it's really easy to style differently. I tried to make it a little more modern with the sassy boots and leather jacket, but I could also take it in a more '50s direction with a fitted little cardigan and some peep-toe heels. Here's a close-up of the fabric! And in terms of Zoya, they have a tooonnnn of great promos right now--if you do their 'Share the Love' and sign-up for a new account through your old account (google it, I'm terrible at explaining) then you get 1 free polish and free shipping if you buy two polishes...aka buy 2 get one free and free shipping, which is excellent. I got (left to right) Wednesday, Dree, and Lara. I'm wearing Dree right now, and it is a fab dusty olive green.

Review: Anastasia See and Be Seen Kit
Guys, I am all of the busy. I have finals for the next 2-3 weeks :( But on the other hand, I have a pretty beauty kit to review for you guys!
So the kit comes in this cute little box, packed with tissue paper, and four products inside it. The four products in the kit are the Brow Gel in Caramel, two Hydrafull Lip Glosses in Heiress and Plastic, and an Illumin8 Eyeshadow Duo in On Set. It's coming out early this summer, and I don't know how much it's retailing for, but you get $86 worth of product (everything in it is full size! Yay!) and I assume it'll retail for less than that.
So from the left we have the Heiress lip gloss, then the lip gloss in Plastic, then the brow gel, then the shadow duo. The shadow duo has a shimmery champagne shadow and a coppery gold shadow, and comes in a metal-looking plastic case that's extremely reflective (which acts as a mirror on the inside). The duo comes with a little shadow applicator too, which is nice as far as these kinds of applicators go, but not something I'd ever use. I'd prefer a mini-eyeliner, but that's just me.
The lip gloss has a very interesting applicator--it's like a flat plastic paddle. I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I see how it could be useful in not using too much product. On the other hand, I have a really hard time applying the lip gloss with it. I have to be right in front of a mirror watching it or there's uneven lip gloss everywhere. Here are the swatches: from the top, the shadow duo, the brow gel, Plastic lip gloss, and Heiress lip gloss.
Okay! The products:
Eyeshadow: I really love this. The packaging is decent, it looks very polished but doesn't feel that luxurious given that it's plastic. But the eye shadows are lovely! They are soft, go on like butter and very opaquely, have great lasting power, no fallout and are easy to blend. Both colors have a fine shimmer that really brightens the eye. I really, really like them! The champagne makes a nice inner-eye highlight color, and the copper-gold is a very pretty lid color that reminds me of MAC's Amber Lights a bit. It does pull a bit orange on me, and makes me look a little ill without being anchored by some black liner, but it's lovely against green or blue eyes. It's just bright enough to pop without being so bright that it looks garish or unflattering. The shadows have a Youthful Synergy Complex that claims to hydrate and firm the skin, which sounds lovely, but I'd have to use it for a few weeks straight to see if it works or not.
Lip gloss: Heiress is a medium coral-pink and Plastic is a straight-up Barbie pink. In terms of opacity, both of these glosses are very opaque--surprisingly so, really. They smell lightly like vanilla, but don't have a discernible taste. The formula is glossy, and has a nice, moisturizing feel on the lips without being heavy or greasy feeling. The lasting power is really impressive--my gloss lasted through dinner and then some, which is pretty good for me. My two qualms would be that it's a little on the sticky side, and that I don't like the applicator. Given that the gloss is so opaque, I can't casually apply it on the go because the applicator is a bit unwieldy for me, and I get really uneven application without a mirror. However, I really like the color of Heiress--applied thinly, it amps up my natural lip color nicely, and applied thickly, it's dramatic and lovely. Plastic just doesn't work for my skin tone, but it's a cute color. Apparently the gloss is packed full of moisturizing plant extracts that will make your lips look better, but I can't speak for that yet. The tubes themselves are above average quality, but you don't get that much product for $21 a pop--but given how pigmented they are, they probably last a while.
Brow gel: I really like the packaging on this. It's cute, but not too cutesy. The applicator is a spooly-brush (similar to a mascara brush) which makes it easy to comb through my brows. It goes on nicely, and looks very natural on my brows, adding a bit of color and a nice amount of hold, which definitely lasts all day. The isn't the color I would choose for myself, but Caramel is a medium golden brown with a hint of golden shimmer (which I didn't notice on my brows at all). I could see this being a really nice product if you have naturally shaped brows that don't need much filling in but maybe need a little control. My brows are lighter than my hair and full of scars and such, so I need a bit more of a heavy-duty product to fill them in, but I like the idea of this for a natural look. It also claims to plump hair follicles with botanical extracts, but I have thick brows already, so I can't judge that either. It retails individually for about $21.
Awkward Chic rating: Would I buy this? Probably not, just because the brow gel and one of the lip glosses don't work for my coloring. But would I buy the Heiress gloss and the shadow duo separately? Yes! Especially the shadow duo. I'd buy other Anastasia shadow duos in fact.

The lip gloss has a very interesting applicator--it's like a flat plastic paddle. I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, I see how it could be useful in not using too much product. On the other hand, I have a really hard time applying the lip gloss with it. I have to be right in front of a mirror watching it or there's uneven lip gloss everywhere. Here are the swatches: from the top, the shadow duo, the brow gel, Plastic lip gloss, and Heiress lip gloss.
Okay! The products:
Eyeshadow: I really love this. The packaging is decent, it looks very polished but doesn't feel that luxurious given that it's plastic. But the eye shadows are lovely! They are soft, go on like butter and very opaquely, have great lasting power, no fallout and are easy to blend. Both colors have a fine shimmer that really brightens the eye. I really, really like them! The champagne makes a nice inner-eye highlight color, and the copper-gold is a very pretty lid color that reminds me of MAC's Amber Lights a bit. It does pull a bit orange on me, and makes me look a little ill without being anchored by some black liner, but it's lovely against green or blue eyes. It's just bright enough to pop without being so bright that it looks garish or unflattering. The shadows have a Youthful Synergy Complex that claims to hydrate and firm the skin, which sounds lovely, but I'd have to use it for a few weeks straight to see if it works or not.
Lip gloss: Heiress is a medium coral-pink and Plastic is a straight-up Barbie pink. In terms of opacity, both of these glosses are very opaque--surprisingly so, really. They smell lightly like vanilla, but don't have a discernible taste. The formula is glossy, and has a nice, moisturizing feel on the lips without being heavy or greasy feeling. The lasting power is really impressive--my gloss lasted through dinner and then some, which is pretty good for me. My two qualms would be that it's a little on the sticky side, and that I don't like the applicator. Given that the gloss is so opaque, I can't casually apply it on the go because the applicator is a bit unwieldy for me, and I get really uneven application without a mirror. However, I really like the color of Heiress--applied thinly, it amps up my natural lip color nicely, and applied thickly, it's dramatic and lovely. Plastic just doesn't work for my skin tone, but it's a cute color. Apparently the gloss is packed full of moisturizing plant extracts that will make your lips look better, but I can't speak for that yet. The tubes themselves are above average quality, but you don't get that much product for $21 a pop--but given how pigmented they are, they probably last a while.
Brow gel: I really like the packaging on this. It's cute, but not too cutesy. The applicator is a spooly-brush (similar to a mascara brush) which makes it easy to comb through my brows. It goes on nicely, and looks very natural on my brows, adding a bit of color and a nice amount of hold, which definitely lasts all day. The isn't the color I would choose for myself, but Caramel is a medium golden brown with a hint of golden shimmer (which I didn't notice on my brows at all). I could see this being a really nice product if you have naturally shaped brows that don't need much filling in but maybe need a little control. My brows are lighter than my hair and full of scars and such, so I need a bit more of a heavy-duty product to fill them in, but I like the idea of this for a natural look. It also claims to plump hair follicles with botanical extracts, but I have thick brows already, so I can't judge that either. It retails individually for about $21.
Awkward Chic rating: Would I buy this? Probably not, just because the brow gel and one of the lip glosses don't work for my coloring. But would I buy the Heiress gloss and the shadow duo separately? Yes! Especially the shadow duo. I'd buy other Anastasia shadow duos in fact.
