No matter what the occasion is, no look is complete without a dash of jewellery – team it with your Indian or western wear, and be sure that you’re ready to turn heads.

How would you define your sense of style?
Simple, minimalistic but bold and differently chic
How much do you enjoy wearing jewellery?
I love to wear jewellery, but the primary parameter is the occasion, place and time of day.
What is your favourite piece?
My favourite pieces are a ‘maang tika’, ‘kamar bandh’ and chokers – I possess quite a few of each.
Would you rather be under-dressed or over-dressed at an occasion?
Any day, under-dressed – cannot go for an occasion looking like a Christmas tree, after all!
Which celebrity’s style do you try and emulate?
I have never tried to copy anyone in life for anything whatsoever – I feel, what you wear should be an extension of yourself, and should define the person you are – hence trying and aping someone would take away from me being me.
One quick fix that never goes wrong?
A really long pair of danglers can do wonders for anyone provided the neckline is reasonably low.
