My Featured Styling & Shopping Work
Fashion is my love language. Whether it's a thrifted steal or a high-end designer piece, I help you find looks that make you feel like your best self. Here is a look at my approach.
As your fashion bestie, I help you pack smartly for any trip. We'll shop your own closet to create amazing, pre-planned looks for every occasion, from fall layering to color-blocked outfits, so you can just enjoy your holiday without any stress.
Want to make any outfit look more stylish? I believe it's all about playing with color, shape, and texture. Here, I show you how to transform simple basics into statement looks, whether it's pairing a classic black dress with interesting shapes or adding a pop of color and texture to jeans.
Yes, I do men's personal shopping too. I help my clients build a versatile Indian wardrobe that goes beyond the basics, focusing on unique styles, colors, and custom fits that match their personality and can be reused for years.
I'm currently loving the draped saree trend because it's the perfect mix of comfort and high fashion. From a chic waistcoat saree for a cocktail party to an elegant draped gown for a reception, I can help you find the perfect modern Indian look for any wedding event.
I know all the best spots for pocket-friendly shopping in Mumbai, especially in Bandra. I can guide you through the best export surplus stores, thrift finds, and accessory shops to build a trendy wardrobe without breaking the bank.
If you're looking for vegan or non-leather luxury items, I know exactly where to find them. From beautiful wicker and satin bags to unique accessories in metal and stone, I can help you source designer pieces that align with your values.
I love showing my clients how versatile a single piece can be. A simple waistcoat can be styled for everything from school runs and work meetings to dinners, just by changing what you pair it with, like a printed skirt, a co-ord set, or classic denim.
About this collection
When I work with you, we don't just look at trends; we look at your life. For example, when I style a client for a vacation, we don't just pack clothes. We use a capsule strategy to map out accessories for every look—shoes, bags, and jewelry—so you aren't guessing what goes with what once you land. It is about making your travel prep stress-free.
Your Wardrobe, Your Rules
I treat fashion as a tool for self-care, not just vanity. Whether I am auditing your existing closet or taking you on a shopping trip, the goal is always the same: you should look in the mirror and feel like yourself, just a more polished version.
What I bring to the table:
- Smart Shopping: I know the best spots, from Bandra’s hidden export surplus gems to Kala Ghoda’s boutiques. I’ll help you find those pieces that look expensive but fit your actual budget.
- Versatility focus: If you see me styling a waistcoat, it is because I love pieces that transition from work meetings to dinners. I teach you how to mix and match your existing clothes so you stop feeling like you have 'nothing to wear'.
- Men’s Styling: Yes, guys, I do this for you too. We move past the boring basics and focus on fits and colors that actually reflect your personality and are easy to maintain.
- Reality Checks: If a garment doesn't fit your body architecture or lifestyle, I will be the one to tell you. My job is to ensure you stop making impulse buys that just sit in your closet with the tags still on.
How We Can Work Together
- Wardrobe Detox: A 3-4 hour session at your home where we sort, edit, and create fresh outfits from what you already own.
- Guided Shopping: We hit the streets in Mumbai for 4-5 hours to find exactly what your wardrobe is missing, from fabric checks to trial room assistance.
- Capsule Curation: Whether it's for a holiday or a wedding, I create a digital lookbook for you so you know exactly what to wear, when to wear it, and how to accessorize.
