Look of the day

I'm a good friend of designer Abhishek Sharma and have been working with him for all his fashion weeks. I am here to support him.

I put a lot of thought into the outfit I wear everyday.

I have played with bold colours.

Just being bold and colour-blocking is my style.

I have used red, tangerine and pink in my look today.

For me bold is orange, red, pink. I did the make up myself in the cab.

I threw in the woolen jacket to get in the autumn/winter feel, even though the hat is summery.

Fashion/Style mantra

I won't say that my style is very comfortable because I go beyond the regular stuff.

Even if fashion makes me feel really hot or is a little tight, I will go with it. Fashion is not meant to be comfortable for me.

Look for the day

I'm wearing a white top and green trousers from Zara.

I picked up one of designer Riddhi Mehra's dresses and turned it into a cape.

I just wore it backwards and opened up the buttons.

Also, I am carrying a geometric clutch.

Fashion/style mantra

I like to be dressed up. That's my comfort zone when it comes to fashion.

Look for the day

Pastels are wonderful and I found this lovely lace pants when I was on holiday in Bali.

I have long legs so I thought why not show them off with these pants.

Fashion is unisex.

The pants don't work with pockets and the clutch is super functional. So I chose to carry it for my keys, wallet, etc.

On a random Friday, you'll see me in a white shirt and black trousers. Nothing like what I am wearing today.

This is just my colourful self that I keep bringing out on certain days.

Fashion/style mantra

Be comfortable in whatever you wear. Don't wear anything that will make you feel uncomfortable and awkward.
