February 28th, 2011 at 9:01 pm . by PriyankaThis is huge… And, we are over the moon! Vogue India in it’s March issue included us in a feature called the ‘New Influencers’… Wild right? We couldn’t be more thrilled and can’t believe we got included in the same feature that had names like Mawi, Prabal Gurung, Amit Aggarwal, Sonam Kapoor, Shilpa Chavan among others.
A biiig thank-you to Priya, Bandana and the entire Vogue team that worked really patiently with the extremely camera-shy us.
The biggest ‘Thank-You’ of all goes to YOU guys of course for continuing to show us your support!

Priyanka (Left) And Payal, Vogue India Mar 2011
Congratulations! :)
Well, this is the first time I am seeing how you guys look. Seriously, for all the writing you do about other women…I am not impressed by your looks. Payal that white number makes you look round and loaded around the hips. You could do something with the hair? As for Priyanka, nothing special with the black dress. Better posture would have helped both of you look better.
Will I see my honest opinion?

Kudos to following your dreams n success stalks you automatically! What an example!!
CONGRATS! its about time. you guys are awesome!
Wow just saw this.. A big congratulations! :))
Wow, you look just as fat & frumpy as the ladies you mock. Really? Ever heard of lipstick?
oh no you didn’t… the groupies ain’t gonna like that!!!
Hey! Everyone’s entitled to an opinion! It’s all good! :)
Priyanka all you are missing is a watch or a bracelet….the arms look too bare.
Priyanka, words like *fat* are not to be used as per your blog comment policy. Why would you relax it because they are commenting on you both?
True, but if we didn’t approve, it’d seem like we are disallowing criticism just coz’ it’s our blog. And if we can dish it (criticism), we sure can take some.
Nicely done, congrats!
You are right DK. I am disappointed to see these ladies in such unflattering clothes and make-up
You are joking right??? Apart from my personal opinion that they look just adorable …the fact remains that not every film critic is a film maker..or every single person who expresses an opinion on models and their figures are models themselves…so you see the absurdity of your comment there? ..just coz they have an opinion (and a damn straight one might I add) doesnt mean they gotta buy/wear/own channel/dior/or even lipstick!
Well said SS !!
agree!
Hey have ever heard of being nice to people if its not business??? :D !! Guess NOT !
Hey cool cool, you guys have given harsher feedback on so many celebrities (expressed yr opnion) so whatz wrong in expressing our opinion? Pls. dont be partial
Au contraire, the bloggers look unexpectedly good :-)
To be frank I didn’t expect them to (I mean the fug girls blog in their pyjamas – or so they say) so its kind of nice to see them looking rather chic and understated.
Gosh, what a misanthrope. Two perfectly sweet, wholesome-looking young girls – and you have to throw eggs.
Well, not everyone who comments here is as fashion fwd as they think they are in their head.
BUT for a photo shoot in vogue, I would have liked a little more effort in clothing and accessories. A little effort would have added a credibility to your comments on others.
This was just too BLAH for me :(
YEAH MAN TWO AUNTIES
AND AS PANDP WOULD SAY:
MEHHHHHHHH
aww, that’s sooo meaaaannnnn……they look sooo cuteee !
HA HA HAHA….soooo true…..now i know where the ‘ash’ love comes from:):)
Always wondered why u guys never posted a pic of u two..atleast now i got to c how u look (thought that might never happen). Looking great…tho I think payal did not get as much attention as priyanka…
Wow…Im soo happy for you guys. For more than two years, you have been a part of my every day schedule. I cannot sleep without visiting highheelconfidential at least once!! I feel like one of my closest friends just received a wonderful award:-) On a personal note…unknowingly you helped me develop my own fashion to a great level!! Sometimes I catch myself thinking what you guys would say to an outfit lolz! Thankyou Payal and Priyanka for a wonderful blog and for keeping it that way from the start:-)
Congrats! Well deserved :)
And finally we got to see our Darlings…Yaaaaaaaaaay!!!!!!
Beautiful……
Congrats too…By the way ‘Priyanka Prasad’,Malayalee?
I think u will look more pretty if u leave the hair open…
‘payal’
proud of you girls. you sure have come a long way! you doing at great job! keep it up
From a devoted reader, congratulations and keep up the good work!
Congratulations, girls! You so rightly deserved it. There is a long way to go though! :p (I’m sure you guys will)
congrats girls….

Hav been followng the blog from the time ur blog strted. me a s/w engr wrkng at Cochin,kerala…..love the work u do…also thanx for intoducing to to redcarpetfashionawards, another adorable site….

Yayy!! Congratulations! I absolutely adore your blog and it’s on my favorites list at work! If only my boss knew what I do at work 50% of the time…muhahaha! Well done, ladies! Totally deserve it! :)
congrats. Love the red shoes.
Congratulations guys!!! Its great to see the faces behind those quirky, witty words!! Way to go!!
Never had an opinion on fashion till i chanced upon your blog. i learn everyday and fashion is no more something I’m petrified of!
Yay….Congratulations!
You girls are gorgeous! :)
Congratulations! The best part about this article was that you guys stayed true to yourself and did not try to pull a Sonam Kapoor or Twinkle Khanna in the pictures… much love for that!
High Heel Confidential is my caffeine!I wake up to it everyday and it’s wonderful to see you both.I will go buy my copy of Vogue today.
You guys look adorable and yes,I like the fact that you aren’t overdressed for the shoot!
Congrats & u two look so good :)
The fashion goddesses…..congrats girls! I am happy to admit- I am addicted to your blog. My day starts with HHC. Here’s to many more :)
Well done, you guys!!! Congratulations! I wish you both continued success on this blog and beyond. and btw, gorgeous shoes Payal.
I would say I was surprised at how vicious some of these comments were, but I’m not. Its quite obvious from how personal comments generally get that a lot of bitter, jealous, unfulfilled people frequent this blog.
Anyway, PnP you look gorgeous!! Given how reluctant you are to reveal your faces, you’re a LOT prettier than I expected both of you to be :-)
I especially love Priyanka’s look, although in the spirit of fashion critique (and the fact that you often urge celebs to do something different with their hair+ makeup) I’ll say that Payal could have been a bit more adventurous with her hair and makeup.
But the important thing is that you girls are getting some serious recognition for your work in a lot of places. Congratulations and you’re both gorgeous! :-)
These two gals are best example for very good grooming..They carry themselves very well..
And priyanka, you are my favourite…:)
Wow… u guys totally deserve this! my hearty congratulations!!!
Would have preferred an updo..just mocking girls! Deep Respect for your work and commitment :-)
I think your blog is absolutely awesome! Woohoo Payal and Priyanka!
Congratulations. Love your blog :)
WOW…congrats girls! U guys rock anyway…with or without Vogue!
So when do we see you on our blackberry app store??plz plzzz be dr ASAP :)
Hey! nice to see this.. Heartiest Congrats!HHC is my way of unwinding and de-stressing. Keep up the grt work.
This is lovely guys. I worship your blog. Congratulations. =D
Need not to add that you guys look adorable.
Hey Girlies, many congratulations for this big achievement…. m so happy for you and somewhere proud myself as unknowingly i have build up a relationship wid u guys….i always refer to ur site as “Payal Priyanka”…like am constantly in touch wid a friend….i m soaddictive and got all my buddies also addicted to u guys…
I can only say u inspire me…
Congrats. thoroughly well deserved :)
To ADD and be very articulate…. DK’s comment is soo soo mean…so you are clearly a person who focuses more on a product’s packaging rather than its features, qualities and performance. You dont believe in personalities but following trends and be one of the “wannabes”. External looks and appearance are so much important for such people that profound qualities, intellect are mere words.
Payal and Priya are not only keen observers, have a classy taste, hardly mock anyone and also thier opinions and comments are well versed… very well put together everything… it is definitely an art and talent not everyone has and they deserve nothing but applauds.. Some ppl just njoy being nasty to others.
Well said!! My thoughts exactly! and i love the fact they even posted it and let us all bash it own!! Too cute i say!
finally a face to the names! You girls are amazing and love love ur fashion sense! keep up the good work!
whatteeyy!! …
just kidding. Congratulations keep up the good work.
Congrats to you both wondeful Ladies! You deserve all the accolades that come your way.
and I must add that you guys look way sweeter than you sound ;) n now that is a honest compliment :) Congrats again and may be it will be a lot to ask but we would like to know more about you guyz.. You are doing an awesome job. I would love to do something like this sometime in my life.
God bless P & P . Enjoy all the glory :)
Congratulations! You girls so deserve it! I am so glad you kept it simple and both of you look gorgeous. I love Payal’s look for the photoshoot.
Congratulations! I love your style in the pictures!
Congrats girls!! This is awesome, and even more awesome for us as we get to know more about you both!
- A HHC-er for the last 2 years.
So that’s what you look like! You are cute!
Woot woot – Congratulations to you P and P – this is huuuuge!!! You absolutely deserve the recognition. You two gals single handedly got the common-girls (like me) interested in the Indian fashion scene. And may I add – both of you look adorable!! Love this blog… have been a visitor since 3 years.
ditttoooo!!!
congrats for being featured in vogue! u guys look fab!!!!
Congratulations, P& P! I love your blog and love commenting on your posts! I always wonder if these celebrities are also sneaking a peek at our comments…
You do great work keeping everyone in line with fashion! Good job, girls! Now go enjoy that martini! ;)
Congratulations! Very well deserved!
Wow Congratulations .. You girls look so beautiful .. Love your blog .. !!
Congratulations! about time!
Congratulations you two!!
Thank you for hooking me onto your site, its one addiction I never want to leave in life.
My brother abroad, when calls and says ‘what’s up? I say nothing much. And he says, oh HHC must be then (:
Well deserved, girls! You both look ‘real’ and pretty. Good going!
Been a regular here for a while now.. and the fact that you girls keep it clean (not being vicious) keeps bringing me back.
Wishing you girls more success and hoping that you retain your humility, like you have, so far. :)
Wooohoooo! fists in air! So glad u guys got ur place in Vogue and I feel you girsl just look awesome! I love the white dress Payal is wearing…Like so many other, my fashion sense is motivated by Stacy and Clinton and then u guys! I just love ur blog not just for the pics as well as for ur flair of writing…love ya both and u have got a place in my day-to-day life!
priyanka looks like shahana goswami!!
both u ladies, soo prettyy!!
Does that mean I have a shot at Milind Soman? :p
HA! Was this after typed after your martini? ;P
Gosh! I meant typed after*
HAHA Adara, looks like you’re the one who had a few martinis :P
@Zaza : Maybe after i get on to the *legal* age. For now, mango lassi it is. ;)
Many congratulations P&P, I am so glad that I chanced upon this site wish I knew it 2 years ago when you started! This blog is my daily dose and I must be peeping in atleast 3 times a day :) inspite of my busy schedule at work ! you guys well deserve this recognition!
CONGRATULATIONS!
You ladies look absolutely stunning!
Lovely :) Congratulations! I read every single one of your posts and I think I know more people by face and I love to see the trends off your site than any fashion show! Great … great work!
Wow! Congrats PnP!!! U girls deserve all the success!
Congratulations to you both….you gurls rockkkkkkkkkk…:))))…!
CONGRATS GIRLS ! U TRULY DESERVE IT !
ooohhhh Congratulations!!!
You guys look sooo lovely =)
Congratulations!! Love your blog and very happy to see you guys getting such recognition. Keep the good work!!
THESE TWO WOMEN LOOKING GORGEOUS!! WHEN I LOOK AT THEIR FACE I SEE THE REAL BEAUTY …AS WE ALWAYS SEE FAKE CELEB FACES ,WE MISSED TRUE BEAUTIFUL FACES …
wow, and with this one post, the termites all crawled out of the woodwork, huh?
I wonder what makes them think that you need to have a 24 inch waist to have taste and an opinion on fashion. The fact that they frequent this blog says that these trolls have an interest in critiquing fashion too. So why not put up their own pictures along with the comments and make it an even playing field, huh? I’m sure P&P as well as the rest of us wouldn’t mind seeing who these models of perfection are, who want to stone others.
P&P congratulations on your hard won fame. You guys do an awesome job and even the OA knows that he is not to disturb me when I am reading HHC over my midnight cup of cocoa.
That said, I do wish Vogue had made more of an effort with Payal’s hair. In this, I blame them, not you. Be it models or real women, it is the magazine’s job to make an effort with the way they look, particularly if it is a fashion magazine, not a newspaper.
Again, congratulations and ignore the naysayers. This is the closest they will ever get to fame and success so let them touch your hem.
Haha WELL SAID! I still have a hard time believing that there can be such petty people in the universe :/
Wow! Congratulations you guys!! Good job!!
You have no idea..what this site has done..it has helped plan so may interviews and parties and weddings!! :)
so many of us owe you both so much!!
Congratulations once again!!
You both have to travel to US soon (ofcourse New York!) and have a HHC meet! =]
Eh? They both live in the US! :P
Oh Shoot..what was I thinking??!! I guess I got into a too ‘desi’ mode :P..
Then ..why not we have a HHC New York meet??!! Like just a meet of the HHC fans with the ladies themselves!!
We can have an east coast meet in NY and then a west coast meet up in Cali.
Sounds like a good idea! Dunno how PnP think about it!??
I like Priyanka’s photo here and the difference between Priyanka and Payal is the confidence. Payal’s uneasiness shows.
For a fashion site, you are never bitchy and you criticize in a very dignified way.
Having said all that, I think if you guys are normal size( and to all the commentators here – these girls are normal not some abnormal stick figures), I would have expected you guys to be little more tolerant towards other people’s size as well.
Great to see you guys! Priyanka … you look so Indian… very Nandita Das.. love your nose-pin.
Payal… love the intelligent look on your face…. and love the posture.
Good job, girls! You’re one step closer to world domination. ;)
First of all, congrats! Mention in Vogue is great.
That being said, I am disappointed with the styling and makeup in the pics. Granted you are not celebrities, but a more flattering ensemble and makeup and flattering pictures would have done a world of good.
OK, I have to say this. For two women who comment on so many other people’s style, you two really disappoint here. Yes you’re not celebrities and do not have perfect figures or features, but surely styling goes beyond that and plays up your best and downplays your worst? You know that, right? The horrific dresses, the shoes and oh god the hair, the hair! And what’s with the unflattering makeup?
You could have done so much better!
FUGLYYYYYYY
adding to my comment P & P are the last women to mock anyone based on their physique, in fact time and again they have openly embraced their curves with pride!
