Shooista

Defined as, 'A person very passionate about shoes'. Okay, this might just be you as well. First to make the A-list cut here is singer and diva
Celine Dion who is said to have 3,000 pairs and counting! Cheryl Cole also went on record to admit her shoe fetish amounts to about 2,000 pairs and
Blake Lively recently showed off her walk-in closet of shoes in almost every hue and design, online.
Sarah Jessica Parker, also called 'Queen of Shoes' shares that fetish with her onscreen persona Carrie Bradshaw in
Sex and the City. The term's also inspiring the 'shoefie', which is photo that you take of yourself in your shoes.

Go ahead, wear grey in 50 shades! It’s not only the colour
du jour, but head-to-toe ensembles in grey are the big fad now! Called 'groufit', this new term is anything but dull. Kim Kardashian went groufit, so did
Selena Gomez,
Karlie Kloss, Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid.

From Beyonce to
Rihanna and Rosie-Huntington-Whitely everyone’s wearing trainers to work and outside, casually. It’s defined as ‘casual clothing designed to be worn for both exercising and for general use’. Gigi Hadid was spotted in blue tracks at a tony A-list restaurant. Strolling around in what seems like gym wear is the new rage. Time you caught hold of it.
ShacketA hybrid between shirt and jacket, this new fashion moniker is quite a functional darling. It’s a button-down ensemble, lighter than the coat or jacket, yet apt for air-conditioned environments. Wear one over a tee. Choose a shacket that works for your frame — cropped, boxy, or long, in khaki or navy. Thumbs-up for this cool garment of the moment!
Mom jeans

Out go the skinnies and boyfriend jeans. The new denims have a higher waist which make them apt for short tees and cropped tops. A nod to throwback style, mom jeans have been seen on
Gwyneth Paltrow, model
Candice Swanepoel,
Zooey Deschanel, Pixie Geldof,
Sienna Miller and this year, Kate Middleton wore a spin on the trend on her trip to a national park in Kaziranga, Assam. Ready to go high waist and dowdy?
LampshadingThis is about wearing a pair of over-the-knee boots with a broad hemline that hits above or right at the top of the shoes. Kim Kardashian,
Kate Moss and
Kylie Jenner have chanelled the style. It mimics the look of a lampshade and is a nod to the retro chic of the 60s.
FuturisticWhen singer
Taylor Swift made an appearance at this year’s Met Gala in a silver cutaway mini-dress with with knee-high strappy stilettos and goth red lipstick, she turned heads. Rita Ora and Beyonce have also been spotted in similar gowns this year. Get ready to embrace the look that’s straight out of a sci-fi movie?
TroulottesYou don’t have to be a straight and dull when it comes to the trouser anymore. Troulottes — a mix between the trouser and culotte — is throwing a bit of flounce and fun into dressing up. These wide and swingy hem pants have found fans in
Victoria Beckham and
Olivia Palermo. If they earlier seemed to have an awkward length, that’s no longer the case. This works for formal and relaxed dos.
Statement heelsLooking to ‘elevate’ your outfit? Change the footwear. Vibrant graphic ‘statement’ heels in neutral or printed palettes can grab the attention like none other. We say wear them to work, too!
