I am forever buying sun&shyglasses &mdash branded ones as well as those being sold by street-side hawkers. My wife, Mehr, is so sick of this habit that she wishes I would see a therapist. I have about 200- odd pairs at home and I always come to know if she gives a pair away I recently visited Fifth Avenue and was trying on a pair of sunglasses, when the shop assistant who was helping me reminded me that I had picked up the pair about five months ago

London, New York, Milan and Paris are my favourite shop&shyping destinations &mdash obviously because of their status as fashion hubs &mdash but I am also very fond of Le Mill in Mumbai. My top tip to fellow shoppers who go to New York to shop is to check out the Brooklyn flea market for sure not because it is not luxury per se, but because you will be amazed at the kind of vintage stuff you can get there.
