Summer fashion tips, filmi style

It takes that extra special effort to be comfortable and still look stylish when one steps put in the blazing summer heat.

But Bollywood actresses have mastered the art and look dewy fresh in soothing garments and cool colours even in these soaring temperatures.

Here's a dekko at some of the fine examples you could emulate:

Bipasha Basu

The sultry actress, whose film Dum Maaro Dum is releasing tomorrow, remains a frontrunner here. Since the story is set in Goa, Bipasha is seen wearing a lot of shorts, frilly skirts and tank tops in the film.

Here, she's seen in a pair of white shorts and a green kurti, a combo that spells c-o-o-l.

Lara Dutta

Newly married Lara Dutta keeps it simple yet smart with white and linen, the best way to beat the heat in style. She jazzes up her outfit with a Louis Vuitton tote.

Kangna Ranaut

British beauty Katrina Kaif, who was chosen as the face for the Barbie, looks innocent in an outfit that seems ideal for summer. A grey tee teamed with a checked skirt and sneakers. The yellow hairband completes the cute look.
