Varnika, Student

What am I wearing?

A crop top and ripped jeans from Zara

My shoes are from forever 21. 

I was going for a boyfriend jeans sort of look.

My fashion advice:

Be comfortable.

Wear something that suits your body type.

Don't follow trends blindly. 

Sometimes what is in does not work on one's body.

Just wear something that feels comfortable and be confident to carry it.

I guess sometimes it's interesting to do something out of the ordinary at that time you've got to just follow your heart.

If it's making you feel good when you're looking at yourself, know that you're going to feel good the rest of the day! :-)

A gown I got from the Philippines.

I've just arrived from there and I happened to pick out one of my prom dresses to wear today.

I'm just a college student so when I think of style I think of something that's comfortable and at the same time affordable.

My fashion advice

Wear something that makes you feel good about yourself... 

It doesn't really matter what exactly us in or out.

What matters is what looks great on you!

My style

My focus has always been on comfort.

But you have to be fashionable as well.

Believe in your own style.

Don't just follow trends.

I have soooo many stilettos and I would love to wear them, especially at a place like this.

But I'm shooting 24/7 right now so comfortable shoes are a must because even if you have the best stilettos, the best heels, you're walking weird

So just be comfortable; you shouldn't be pulling down your dress every couple of minutes or trying to get your bra strap inside because then it just looks awkward.

You're actually attracting attention in the wrong way.

Just be yourself.

What am I wearing?

The dress and necklace are from Colaba Causeway! Can you believe it?

My shoes are from Anna Sui

And the silver ring belonged to my grandmother.

My fashion advice: 

You need to proud of yourself so whenever you step out of your house you need to dress up like you want to be seen.

You need to be comfortable. Sometimes it's easy to be lazy and just wear what you have and get out but take some pride in yourself.

Look in the mirror. Smile and make everyone else smile as well :-)
