Do you wear accessories? I don’t like to wear accessories, not even a watch. But I have a liking for shoes and bags.
Do you follow any brands? Not really.
Favourite shopping destination: Bangkok and being a Punjabi I like to shop in Amritsar. In Mumbai… I like to shop everywhere. But these days I am crazy for online shopping. It’s much more sensible and it saves your time and energy.
Most expensive buy: I bought a shoe from London worth rupees 20K.
Clothes you are comfortable in: Not any particular it depends upon my mood. And I believe in variety.

Favourite perfume: I like to wear men’s perfume.
Colour that fills your wardrobe: I like wearing all the colours but black and white is my favourite.
Describe “Sale” in one word: I don’t believe in sale. I think it’s all tactics to toy with customers.
Currently your wardrobe is over-flowing with: With shoes. I simply love wearing different shoes.
You have hardest time getting dressed for: I take time to dress up when I have to go for any professional meetings as you have to dress up properly and you can’t wear casuals.
Any fashion disaster you have come across recently: I hate it when girls wear closed shoes on short skirts. It really puts me off.
If you had to choose a fashion era, which period will it be:
I loved the era when Asha Parekhji’s used to flaunt her figure in
the retro look, specially her eye make-up. She was truly a diva.
