The right pair of shoes can take a look to a whole new level. Shoes can either make or break a look! Hence its important to choose the right pair of shoes with your outfit. If you are done with your hair, outfit styling and make up , the next thing that counts are the shoes! Hence I recently bought three sexy pair of footwear which according to me are essentials in the footwear section!

1. Boots/Ankle Boots:
The latest shoe trend I have fallen for is the bootie, In Black from Nell are love only <3 .When you want to cover more of your foot, but have the feel of a fabulous heel then this is the shoe you have to go for ! Designed beautifully in velvet these boots fit my feet like a glove ! Comfy and stylish at the same time! No matter what the season may be, boots and booties never leave.

2.Floral Embellished ballet flats:
A shoe collection is incomplete without a pair of comfy eye catchy flats ! And what could be better than ballerinas , that too embellished and studded ! It was love at first sight, the moment I saw these I knew I had to buy them ! Made from soft velvet material , these flats are gorgeous and a show stopper ! Who ever said you had to wear heels to get attention to your shoes every single time ?! Ha !  Just remember that ballet flats with embellishments are pretty busy and can quickly clutter an outfit so it’s best to balance everything out . Whether you do it up for the everyday or for a special occasion , these beauties are sure to garner attention ! :D

3. Bling Wedges:
What happens when comfort meets bling ? A lovely pair of blingy wedges come into the picture. Remember all those days where you had to manage a heavy ghagra or a fully embellished anarkali along with blingy heels? I know hard it is to carry a tough ethnic outfit along with heels (And no , lets not get into how celebs manage doing this every single time) So why not shift to wedges which are both comfortable and sparkly enough to go with your outfit! These gold wedges from Catwalk are lightweight and a frequent wear ! So yes these were the essentials according to me for Spring/Summer 2015!

The new style staple: Kaftans . 7 Ways to wear a Kaftan.
December 16, 20140 Comments

Style statement just got refined whe
n designers started bringing Kaftan styled kurtas and dresses on the runway!
So lets begin with the history of Kaftans or (Caftans)..
What is a Kaftan? A Kaftan is an ankle-length or a mid length dress front-buttoned cloak or overdress first worn by the Persians in the 600 B.C’s  and is usually made of light fabric such as cotton, silk or cashmere.
The Kaftan trend have re-emerged throughout the fashion history again and again. It might just sink in and disappear for a while but when its back it just gets better! 
The trend setting era: The timeless, ethereal and floaty nature of the Kaftans  suits all body shapes and sizes. Its one of their best features. Those who thought Kaftans were only for beachwear , rethink again! Also for those who are little over weight and self conscious, Kaftans are the best options to hide those extra pounds. ;)
Ethnic edge to the Kaftans: It can also be worn as a Churidaar Kameez top . YES ! :D But just make the hemline reaches below the knees or till it touches your ankles. That’s it! Team it up with a pair of comfy chudi pants. And without much effort the spotlight turns on you.
There’s no doubt that kaftans give the wearer both a sensual and elegant appeal.
7 ways to style a Kaftan and how to each time wear it differently:
1. Beach wear : Kaftans are a perfect way to cover up  after a swim at a beach !

2. Palazzo Pants : Style an elegant Kaftan with a pair of Palazzo pants and in a jiffy you are ready to rock the world. Wear it to a tea party, social event, or even hell shopping !
