Spotted on singer Anushka, the Steve Madden ‘Bukled’ pumps, which she paired with a denim jumpsuit and a brown bag. The colorful pumps created by Steve Madden were meant to be a more affordable option to the Balenciaga ‘Lego’ sandals that featured in the Balenciaga’s Fall 2007 collection.

Packing A Punch?

… Not quite! After giving us gorgeous editorials, Lakshmi surely disappointed at the 2009 Costume Institute Gala. She was dressed up by designer Rachel Roy for the exhibition in a pink strapless number which she wore with Manolo Blahnik for Rachel Roy booties and Mont Blanc jewellery. Although the back of Lakshmi’s dress had more detail, it still didn’t quite make up for the disappointing first impression.

Considering the theme of this year’s exhibition was ‘The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion’, we are surprised Ms. Roy couldn’t be inspired more by this lovely muse. Or was it she kept the best for herself?

You can check out more of the exhibition and breakdown of who wore what here.

The Jimmy Choo ‘Edalene’ sandals seem to have found quite the fan following among the ladies of Mumbai…

Wonder who’ll be spotted in them next!

If the ladies in Mumbai social circuit have their trusted pair of Choos, then go here to see who’s wearing Louis Vuitton.

While the ‘Edalene’ is not available anymore, the Jimmy Choo ‘Samoa’ is a great alternative.

Its a look we’ve seen done before by Avantika and if only the dress had been a uniform animal print (without the checks), we would have loved Avanti’s red booties look. At this point, we just like the booties.

Which look of hers do you prefer more?

P.S. Can’t be sure but looks like she has the red Pour La Victoire booties on.
