So much about getting your fashion statement right! Famous TV Chef Nigella Lawson has made news by ordering 12 identical dresses for a huge £2,000. Apparently, the curvaceous beauty believes in wearing only those clothes that flatter her voluptuous shape and size. And the outfit in reference is the 1950s-style Bombshell gown with its nipped waist and sweetheart-shaped bustlines.
Looks like people are have already started noticing. In fact, a survey of 2,000 women revealed that two of every three wants to have the celebrity chef’s hourglass figure. Fashion experts like Natalie Theo are saying that Nigella is the perfect example of maximising her natural shape with the style of clothes she wears. That pretty much explains Nigella’s flaunting her tiny waist, full cleavage and great shoulders.

Price may have been cut at most eateries due the global financial hit but not everyone likes to follow herd. Take the posh London curry house Bombay Brasserie, for instance. The cooks here have concocted a spectacular culinary delight with a price, that both have enough ammunition to blow your mind away even individually. So, you can well imagine the lethal combination that apparently is being patronised by the Richie Richs of the society.
Called The Samundari Khazana aka Treasure from the seas, this one is tasteful mix of Beluga caviar, sea snails and a whole lobster topped with edible gold. The head chef, Prahlad Hegde, believes that there still are many people who are willing to shell out the extra buck to pamper their taste buds. We hear that Prahlad is the one to have created this expensive curry, which in turn is an inspiration from his mother’s kitchen.
