Make-up Artist Abhijit Chanda Believes That How You Dress Speaks Volumes About Your Lifestyle Photographs By Pabitra Das Published 23.01.11, 12:00 AM

Style according to you is…

Very closely associated with your lifestyle. It reflects the way you live.

Five items in your closet you can’t do without

My jeans, Tees, shoes, shorts and perfumes.

Most extravagant buy

A Polo Ralph Lauren jacket which I bought recently in Bangkok.

What do you like to mix and match?

I like pairing casual and sporty styles. For instance, if I wear a casual T-shirt I team it with sporty shoes or very sporty wrist-gear.

What kind of a shopper are you?

I am a shopaholic. I randomly pick up stuff and then come home and realise that I have a heap of rubbish in my shopping bags.

Favourite accessories

Watches and colourful socks.

Did you ever go through any wild fashion phase?

About five years ago when I was doing a course in hair-styling, a friend dyed my hair blonde just because we wanted to try out something new. While most people said it looked bad, some felt that it looked good (though I’m not sure they meant it).

You have a nose for?

Joop Clinique Happy.

Biggest fashion faux pas…

I have curly hair but since I always longed for straight hair, in 2007 I grew my hair long and got it chemically straightened. I couldn’t bear to look at myself in the mirror after that.

If you could change any one of your features, what would it be?

I am happy the way God created me.
