Real talk: we all wish we were best friends with Mindy Kaling. That's in large part thanks to her wit, charm, and humor that made her our favorite doctor on television. But it's not just her hilarious books or The Mindy Project that made us a fan; it has a lot to do with her style game — because, in case you haven't noticed, this comedian's fashion is pretty on point.

She's turned out a mix of preppy, playful wares on her way to book signings, not to mention a series of glamorous gowns to walk the red carpet. So while we loved watching her as Dr. Lahiri, we're taking a closer look at her real-life fashion history. Take note — it's a lesson in keeping it sexy and smart.

By the way, you can get up close and personal with Mindy at POPSUGAR Play/Ground! On Saturday, June 9, she'll be taking the stage to talk about how smart girls win! Get your POPSUGAR Play/Ground tickets now.
