"Style is about embracing my dual identity as a South Indian American and finding more ways to incorporate the gorgeous textiles of South India into western fashion. For years, my Indian and American wardrobes stayed separate with the Indian outfits only making an appearance on special occasions. I now wear my anklets (golusu) every day, style my kolapuris with daily outfits, and find an excuse to wear jasmine flowers in my hair. Finding ways to weave Indian prints and accessories into my daily outfits excites me the most and I hope to continue to find new and creative ways to do so."
