Prachi Desai is a confident dresser

Prachi Desai

Prachi Desai doesn't care about popular opinion when it comes to fashion. "I did not have fashion icons when I was growing up. I am a confident individual. I used to make my own combinations and they weren't bad at all," says Prachi, before giving us a peep into her closet.

Cool casuals
On a day when I want to dress easy, I opt for a fitted tank top with a pair of comfortable leggings or ripped jeans. At home, you will find me in a cotton shirt teamed with shorts.

Let's party
For parties, I wear trendy clothes that suit my body type. A dress with long sleeves, cinched at the waist, is what I would usually opt for. Or, a crop top and pencil skirt is a good bet, too.

Fashion favourites
In Hollywood, Miranda Kerr and Emma Watson are exemplary and look chic. Among the actors, Ryan Gosling is the best. Basically, I love anything he does (winks). Closer home, I feel Kangna Ranaut makes a statement almost every time.

Skin and hair
I always wash my face before going to bed. I go for hair rituals every fortnight. Also, I start my day with a glass of coconut water.

Bling love
Emerald and ruby earrings in white gold are my favourite for certain occasions. Otherwise, I love rings of all kinds - diamonds or goth.

Fashion nightmare
The mere thought of a velvet balloon dress! It is important to find the correct type of clothes, which highlight your assets and colours that compliment your complexion. One must avoid extremes.
