In Her Shoes

This week, I am thinking about another Carrie, Carrie Bradshaw. If Sex and the City was made in 2015 or 2016, wouldn't Carrie be wearing sneakers or any kind of flats for that matter?

As much as she loved her shoes (even when they pinched her)  which were pretty and expensive and took her messages on her answerphone, Carrie would have not bought them all heeled and laced today. Sarah Jessica Parker's off duty style (In case you follow her on Instagram) suggests she would have carried the flats off really well too.

When I saw the flats trend coming, I did not see a soul happier than me. Being a fashion blogger, there is always a pressure to look a certain way and heels looked kind of important. I was once talking to a fellow blogger who said that no matter how pretty a dress is, somehow everyone made her feel that it looked drab without heels.

Not anymore though. As more and more people are wearing flats with pretty much everything these days, one doesn't need to feel that pressure now. I have four pairs of heels, but I know they will be used only for plays or really odd occasions that demand almost no walking.


Having said all this, I still am kind of jealous of people who can wear heels everyday and still manage to smile all the time.

 You have a great weekend. Please follow me on GFC and Facebook and Instagram.

  3. This is such a perfect springtime look with an edgy twist! Love it, Rupa. You said you are still kind of jealous of people who can wear heels everyday and still manage to smile all the time. Well it's the other way round with me, I am jealous of those who can wear flats for more than an hour and still manage to smile. Most of the time it doesn't even take an hour and I am in pain. My back's killing me when I wear flats, I am NOT kidding you, hun. Sorry Rupa, I was in such a hurry last time that I forgot to answer your question. Nope, I am still not on fb or any other social media, tho. But you can email me anytime, hun. Happy weekend, Rupa.

  4. I agree with you, I am jealous of people who can wear heels on daily basis too! But I started wearing them more often now, just because I really love beautiful high heel shoe, and I must say that it's all about getting used to it. Mostly getting used to the fact that in your head wearing heels on a normal day seems just fine. Still, I can't wear them daily, but I am getting there :)

    All the best,

  11. As I am working in an insurance company I mainly wear heels to accentuate those bussines style outfits. With heels it is "pracise makes perfect", the more you walk in them, the more comfortable you feel :)
    Anyways, in my free time I am a big sneakers or flats girl - I guess I just like to switch things up.
    Anyways, I adore your flats, that glimmer of gold is perfect!
