Sonam caught in the net

Style diva Sonam Kapoor lets Sunday MiD DAY in on the secret behind her great style Internet shopping

Sonam caught in the net

But the problem is
There is a major tax, which is ridiculous, so it's not very viable. I go through websites and see what I like, jot down the serial number and then when I go abroad, I visit the store with the details.u00a0


My first online buy
Was a pair of black sequined Pedro Garcia booties from net-a-porter some six seasons ago in 2007 when I started working.

I shop at
outnet, net-a-porter, ebay, amazon, victoria secret, browns fashion, matches fashionu2026 there are some 500 million sites!u00a0

It's easier to shop online
Because I know the specific designers and I know my sizes. Unless the site has a return policy or you know your size or have a really good tailor, it's better to visit the store. It's okay to shop online for DVDs, books and even artificial jewellery.

My latest rubbish buy
I bought a gizmo-looking hand fan because it gets really hot on set with the make-up on, but that broke. Then I got an Indian fan a grey one.

Find the best deals on
outnet.com. Most websites have sales when the season ends. shopstyle.com lets you put email alerts for designers. I really wanted a vintage Levis and put an alert for any Levis that goes on sale anywhere in the world.

The best on-time delivery
Is by net-a-porter.


Best time to shop online
For India, it's summer. However, in Jan-Feb, stuff goes on sale. But this is the Internet so any time is a good time.

I shop mostly for
Books and DVDs. I don't download. I have all the seasons of Bones. My mom is tired of all the Amazon stuff in our house.

I shop for gifts online
Most sites have an option where you can giftwrap the purchase and have it delivered. The billing address and the delivery address are different.u00a0
