Loafers: Loafers have an inherently “preppy” feel to them, making them a great choice for adding a sporty touch to casual attire. They’re perfect with jeans or casual pants, but to keep them from being boring, look for a unique color, finish, texture, or detailing.

Hey! I Love Shoes!! I have so many pairs, but would always stop by to look at the display in the shop and eventually buy something. Mojaris and Kolhapuris are my recent buys.
You have a whole list of types and styles of Shoes from A to Z, didnt knew that!! A great compilation!!
oye dude !!!
yeh toh KILLER hai !!!
you bet i’m gonna use all these names…..
good show !!!
Hope you are not thinking of adding some more pairs to your already overflowing cupboard, based on this knowledge!!
look what you just did! you put a desperate desire in me to go and shop for shoes …
now i want to buy kitten heels.
I blive u shud rename ur blog 2 ‘A to Z’
Frm where do u gt these ideas 2 write about, nd evn if u gt them, how r u able 2 execute thm.
Nd yeah 26 ‘must have’ pairs.. ye kuchh zada nai ho gya kya π
@ Surilee: Good to see you here, Surilee!!
Wow! You love shoes too!! π
I like Mojaris too, they are cool, elegant and so very colourful too!
@ Aashima: Thanks girl! Use meaning…use the lingo in conversations or use them for your feet!! π
@ Kshitij Garg: I guess, you are forgetting that half of the cupboard is occupied by YOUR shoes!! π
@ Shilp: Oh, wow! I am really happy to help!! π
Yeah, the kitten heels sure look classy!
@ Vipul: π
Can’t rename the blog!! π
Yeah that’s a good question. Ideas are plenty, but yes, execution is a bit tough. Like I got stuck on the ‘Q’! There is no style/variety/type of women’s shoe with that alphabet. So had to use a technology used in good shoes!!
26 kahaan zyada hain?? Remember Imelda Marcos…she had more than 2500 pairs!!
Of course we do not want that much!!
We will be happy with JUST 26!! π
I am drooling like crazy. I could have all these in my closet and still beg for more.
Wow! Its making me wanna shop for a few more… !!!
Really… shoes and women are inseparable. Or for that matter… even men! There is something magnetic about them… makes one want to keep adding to their (already large) collection! π

The men’s segment has a huge variety too, but guess, not as comprehensive as the women’s shoes!!
what an awesome post!!! hopped onto ur blog after a long time and was suddenly so happy!!!
Hi Shilpa
Thats awesome.
Men’s collection is sooooo boring comparatively.
One question:
How can girls feel comfortable in those “High Heels”?? i mean dont u girls get your ankle twisted??
Anyways, great collection of shoes.
Cheers.
Mindnumbing!! So many types of shoes and sandals! No wonder I never find space for my shoes on the shoe rack. The damn thing has got five shelves and still no space for my shoes.

Shilpa,
Waiting for your 100th post with a bathed breath!
I will leave your blog’s link in the post which I am going to put up today!
Nice compilation and it requires a lot of work!
Btw, I posted a comment yesterday, did you delete it or did I forget to publish it?
hi…
from mens fashion to womens shoes…great…..
I never knew such a lot of varieties are available….
great one….
to husbabds’ relief, there are only 26 letters in alphabet. Thank god. (just kidding)
wow…lovely shoes. I loved the T-strap and and the ankle boots. What a nice idea to categorize them with alphabets π
Btw, I was given the Zombie chicken award today, and I am passing it on to you.
You can come and collect the award from my blog nishitak.wordpress.com π
@ IndianPundit! LOL…No he was not into secret services or something!!
Wow, You have a nice name! So why all this secrecy about it!!??
@ pawan: Thanks, Pawan. You made my day! It feels good to know, that a post (yeah…it’s a landmark post!) is looked forward to and that too with bated breath!! π
Am working on it!! Hope it meets the expectations!! π
No, I didnt see your comment and I will certainly not delete it!!
Yeah, it takes a lot of effort!! And Thanks! π
@ Shankar: Yeah, a load of things!! Fashion seems to be toooo vast!! π
@ Bharathi: π
But women, might not like to stop at just 26!! Then they’d like to go in for different colours, patterns within the same style!!
And heard matching dress…matching shoes!?
I know, it’s not easy being a husband!!
But you all guys must thank God for you have wonderful spouses! π π
@ nishitak: Hmmm…even I am lusting for some!!
Thank YOU so much for the award. I’ll check it out in a moment!! π
You made my day too!! π
Thank You!!
Well 26 pairs of must have pairs for women…nice… Thank God I am not married ….
BTW How about try Hindi alphabets there will be many more pairs to the list π …
thunderful spouses :-(((

Hi Shilpaa
Check out my blog.
An award is waiting for you…….
Cheers and i believe you deserve a lot of blog awards for your DEDICATION to blogging…..
Cheers!
All i can do after reading this post it forward it to my bhabhi… She just loves them..:-)
One a serious note, i just dont understand the reason for a woman’s affinity to shoes!!!!
Hi shilpa
check out my blog!
you have been tagged..
keep smiling
That sure can be a collection.Men for certainly don’t indulge in such luxury.Now I can figure out where my family spends money.
@ Dhiman: π
Hindi would be way too tough. And I guess, it would be better if one uses the Hindi alphabets and writes in Hindi!! π
@ Bharathi: π
@ Sweet Nothings!!!: Ya, they are good! Go for them, girl!! π
@ IndianPundit: Thank you so much! π
@ Whats In A Name: Ya, that’s a good idea!!
Hey, i seriously think, I should get free samples from Shoe companies for recommending their products to so many!! π
@ BK Chowla: π
I guess, I could be sued for giving ideas!! π
OOOO…SHOES! I’m glad vegetarian shoes were mentioned. The best part is that these days you can find animal-friendly options of almost all of these styles! Vegan Chic http://www.veganchic.com is a great online vegan boutique that always has a great selection of vegan footwear.
Ask me…how girls are crazy for shoes! I have a good experience π π
You are becoming one encyclopedia! π
@ Anderbuff: Hmmm…vegan shoes are good for all!
yes, i checked that website and it has some very amazing vegan shoes!! π
@ Amrit: Wow!! So you have ‘good’ experience!! That’s nice!!
I mean being experienced is always helpful later on!! π
