Window Shopping:Shoes in FLORENCE,ITALY

Florence is a treat for fashion-food-art lovers! This city has the most beautiful houses ever with doors as high as 20 feet and windows the size of doors in India! The grandeur makes your jaw drop in awe. Besides architecture, the curious shopper will find his heaven too.The famous leather market of Florence is world-renowned and is definitely a competition to Dharavi , not because it has great prices but because it has the most vibrant shades of bags and shoes made from leather. If you ask me why I am not featuring that market here, its a simple reason- I almost rushed through it as i was running out of time and i was so engrossed I almost forgot my camera! In this post I will take you through high-street shops in Florence. Though you may find the regular shops like OVS, Accessorize, I am taking you through some special ones here. Lets get some shopping inspiration!

THE DUOMO CATHEDRAL - the shops below are in the same street

This is the first in the window shopping series- Let me know if you would love more such posts in the comment box below!

TELE-WATCH:Trinny & Susannah's Makeover Mission India on TLC

It couldn't get any better! A fashion blogger meets her inspiration- The World Famous Fashion Stylists Trinny and Susannah ! Ever since I was a kid, I was glued to the TV , the moment 'What not to Wear ' would host on it. I could watch it for hours, back to back. It was a pleasure to be invited to meet the gorgeous fashionistas who have given makeovers to women over 12 countries in the last 17 years! Thanks to TLC , they roped in the ladies to do a version for Indian men and women in Mumbai and Delhi.It kick starts from August 12th and will air on TLC India at 9pm Monday to Friday  .I could never imagine in my wildest dreams that they would do a show for India and that I will get to interview them! Mr. Rahul Johri( Senior Vice-President and General Manager-South Asia, and Head of Revenue,Pan-Regional Ad Sales and Southeast Asia , Discovery Networks) said that Indians are gravitating largely towards dressing right and hence these reality shows are expected to be a HIT! 

Am i dreaming? 

 

Indian women don't open up so easily when it comes to dressing and especially when they are being told they dress incorrectly! 
I was interested to know how Trinny and Susannah prepared themselves for the Indian edition. To this Trinny replied that she found India very similar to Israel. The women prefer to dress up covered head to toe and the kind of fabrics, colors etc are very similar in both the countries. Hence she could relate a lot to Indian women.Believe me I was scared to death at the thought of what the ladies might think about my dressing since i claim to be a stylist myself ;) And well, I did get a compliment! Let's hope this season turns out as interesting as the current version which is the Australian edition on TLC!
