What is your idea of
style? How would you
define your personal
style?
Fun and comfortable. Those are the first two things that come to mind when I think of style. Though I love experimenting with fashion, I will never ape a trend because it’s ‘in’. My personal style should be a reflection of me and my personality and not someone else’s.
What was the first
fashionable outfit/
accessory you ever
wore?
I think it was a pair of black heels. For every girl, it’s a bigfashion moment when you can finally wear your first pair of heels. But as a child, I never payed too much attention to fashion. I was more interested in sports where I would put on a pair of shorts, a t-shirt and my sneakers and I was out of the house.
In your wardrobe,
what is the one
fashionable outfit/
accessory you cannot
do without?
My favourite pair of jeans. It’s like an extension of my skin. They stand by me on good days and bad. And then my LBD. When in doubt, always run to the chic little black dress, heels and accessorise .
Have you ever mixed
and matched trends?
I love playing with contrasting trends. So it could be a kurti with tights, a ganji with a maxi skirt or dhoti pants and kolhapuri chappals.
What’s been your
biggest fashion faux pas?
Thankfully I haven’t had any yet. I’d rather be safe than sorry.
Name one trend that
you just don’t understand.
Bumbags! They just look odd and should be restricted to tourists.
Name a celebrity
whose fashion sense
you admire.
Anne Hathaway and Blake Lively have impeccable fashion sense. Though their styles are very different, they are both fearless in terms of their fashion choices and look fabulous in whatever they put together.
People follow celebs.
Where do you, as a
celeb, get your fashion
tips from?
There is constant inspiration around us. But I do tend to browse through a lot of fashion magazines to pick up tips, or tap my friends, who themselves are designers and stylists.
