“As I navigate life at 29, I’ve learned a few things along the way,” shares comedian Urooj Ashfaq (@uroojashfaq), while slipping into a pair of Bata Comfit shoes from the new Starlight Collection. “One of the most important lessons? Never sacrifice comfort for style—especially when you’re constantly on the move for performances and tours.” With Bata Comfit, Urooj enjoys deep comfort and effortlessly chic styling, making it her go-to choice both on stage and for her festive looks.

“The biggest lesson has been being self-reliant”, she continues. “I am also learning to really enjoy my own company, being satisfied with myself, and also being kinder to and loving myself. Treating myself like a friend has made my life much easier and made my internal dialogue much kinder.”
