Style according to you is…

Wearing clothes that reflect your personality.

Five items in your closet you can’t do without

I cannot live without my big and bold traditional earrings, necklaces, my designer caps and my shiny Lycra stoles.

Most extravagant buy

I’ve always wanted to own a necklace with a solitaire and recently my dream was fulfiled when I bought one for myself. Needless to say, it cost a bomb.

What do you like to mix-and-match?

I love fusion wear. So I match Indian outfits with Western garments like jeans with a dupatta, corset with a sari or even a necktie with a sari.

Your favourite shopping destination

My favourite shopping destination would definitely be London. I never get tired of roaming its streets and buying from quaint little shops.

You have a fetish for

Nose rings. Apart from making a woman look very Indian it also makes her look chic.

Favourite accessories

I am all for traditional jewellery pieces like nose rings and maang-tikas.

The trend you are sporting at the moment

These days, I am in the mood to wear caps and bandanas of different colours. I recently bought a multi-coloured bandana from Africa and I simply love it.
