My Kind of footwear.

I have seen unlimited fashion magazines, fashion blogs, various shops (world over).
You all know I am so inspired by so many fashion blogs that I keep mentioning. But, I am not inspired by a single person, blog, etc when it comes to choice of footwear.

First let us see what I do not like in a footwear. Following are a big NO.

  • Wedge heels
  • Platforms
  • Gladiators
  • Clogs
  • Kitten heels
  • Boat shoes
  • Kolhapuris
  • Mojris
  • Juttis
  • Flat chappals
  • Pumps or even peep toes do not fascinate me much
  • OTT Bohemian styles


So what are the choices left?

I have a fantastic arched foot. I am extremely comfortable wearing heels. I can practically run in heels. I dance in heels all day long without getting tired.

So what I LOVE is


  • Nice stilettos
  • More than flip flops, I prefer closed heel cage, ankle straps. Though, I have few flip flops too.
  • I also like string ties
  • High boots (have to be eye catching and different. Not run of the mill).
  • For my own workout, I wear- Nike/Adidas.
  • If I am with a client in the studio, I would like to slip into any comfy flat, closed, balleria kind of shoes, without socks. (Easy to wear and take off, airy, comfy, easy to demonstrate moves).
  • At home, I am either in Tone Walker or Fit Flops.


My favorite brands. Exactly in the order of priority.


  • Comme Il Faut- All designs. They are all super duper, sexy, made for me.
  • Nine West
  • Christian Louboutin
  • Manolo Blahnik
  • Louis Vuitton
  • Burberry
  • Miu Miu
  • Ferragamo
  • Charles and Keith
  • I should also mention that there is a guy in mumbai, from whom I get my shoes made. His shoes are really really nice. Check his facebook page here.
  • Prada
  • Gucci
  • Fendi
  • Dior
  • Coach
  • Clarks
  • Guess

    Brands completely not fond of or are a Big NO for me.
    • Converse
    • Crocs (Though I do own one)
    • Aldo
    • Bottega Veneta (Like their clutches not footwear)
    • Tods
    • Hermes (Again like their bags not shoes)
    • Jimmy Choo
    What is your style?

      Well hon... as you have already observed, I LOVE wedges!

      I LOATHE kitten heels! And pointy toes... on me only though because I have wide feet... and althogh I have flat feet, I can arch my foot so I too am very comfortable in heels!

      But... the older I get... the less willing I am to wear stiletto heels. I want solidarity under my foot.

      Hmmm... I love footwear - all kinds. Stilettes, point toes, wedges, platforms, understated, bling, green shoes, pink shoes, black, brown, reeeeddddd. I love shoes too much to dislike anything. Which doesn't mean that i'm not choosy - for me the main thing is that it has to be unusual or at least something i haven't worn before.
