In an exclusive interview with our magazine, we delved into the world of Tarini, exploring the roots of her journey, her inspirations, and the driving force behind her magnetic content. As we settled into our conversation, Tarini exuded an aura of confident contentment. "I'm doing splendidly; thank you for inquiring," she responded when asked about her well-being, setting the tone for an engaging discussion. The story of her creative voyage began with a clear calling – a desire that emerged from her formative years. "From the days when I pursued Fashion Technology in school and topped my boards to my studies in fashion styling, image design at Pearl, and later fashion communications at Manchester Metropolitan University, it was evident that my heart was set on this path," she shared with a glint of nostalgia. During the lockdown in 2020, Tarini's creative journey truly took flight. The inspiration to start creating content on Instagram culminated in her education, her passion for fashion, and the unmistakable pull of her heart towards this artistic voyage. "The decision to begin during the lockdown in 2020 was pivotal, and the rest is history," she mused, her eyes reflecting the transformative power of embracing one's calling. One cannot help but wonder about the fashionista's favourite ensemble, given her flair for style. "I've always enjoyed comfortable PJs, so I'd select a chic and fanciful set," she chuckled. However, her passion for fashion and experimentation was palpable, and she quickly added, "Given my affinity for fashion and experimenting with various looks, I'd find joy in continually styling it in fresh and innovative ways throughout my lifetime." Tarini's commitment to creativity knows no bounds, even in the face of a hypothetical wardrobe limitation. As we explored the tapestry of her journey, the question of inspiration naturally arose. Tarini's roots in creativity trace back to her childhood, where she would meticulously dress up dolls and design intricate looks for them. This early spark evolved into a flame fueled by the influences of fashion luminaries like Coco Chanel and Alexander McQueen. "Their unique perspectives on style and design have deeply moulded my approach," she revealed, her eyes gleaming with admiration. Yet, her journey is not solitary; it's a harmonious dance with the vibrant Instagram community. "Interacting with fellow content creators and observing their distinct takes on fashion and content creation fuels my perpetual evolution and innovation," Tarini shared. Her journey is illuminated by the collaborative spirit that defines this dynamic platform. As we delved deeper into Tarini's routine, her commitment to growth and creativity was evident. Her days are a symphony of gratitude, creativity, exploration, and connection. "To commence, I jot down 10 things I'm grateful for in my gratitude journal," she revealed, emphasizing the importance of nurturing a positive mindset. Her mornings unfold with engaging her audience on social media, valuing their feedback as a compass guiding her content creation. Tarini's Day is a well-choreographed ballet of creation. From staying abreast of fashion trends to crafting content, her routines are a tribute to her dedication. Collaborations and meetings punctuate her afternoons, driving her growth. "Physical and mental well-being are crucial," Tarini asserted, sharing her penchant for dance workouts and soothing skincare sessions. A vibrant world of excitement and meticulous planning emerged behind the curtain of Tarini's latest projects. "Backstage, I'm a bundle of excitement, naturally derived from pursuing something I've always held dear," she confessed, her voice infused with youthful enthusiasm. Her approach is meticulous, from conceptualization to execution, ensuring every detail aligns seamlessly. As our conversation neared its conclusion, Tarini's message to the world was powerful and poignant. "I'm at the precipice of unveiling my journey to the world, aiming to inspire the youth with my experiences," she proclaimed. Her forthcoming YouTube channel, a beacon of empowerment, is set to share tools and techniques centred around gratitude, a positive mindset, and visualization. This mission, rooted in empowering individuals to wholeheartedly embrace their dreams, is a testament to Tarini's indomitable spirit. In the kaleidoscopic fashion and content creation world, Tarini Bhatia stands as a beacon of creativity, resilience, and empowerment. Her journey is an ode to embracing one's passion, nurturing growth, and spreading inspiration through every facet of life. As we concluded our conversation, Tarini's essence lingered, a testament to the fact that within each of us, the power exists to create, inspire, and evolve.

By Anushka Sharma By Anushka Sharma This Is What Will Happen If You Stop Using All Skincare Products For Three Months 25 June 2024 BEAUTY Advertisement Advertisement Well, to say the least, your skin will literally clear up like never before. Let’s talk about a case study and refer to that person as “X”, as “X” does not wish to disclose her real identity. X has been travelling the world as a digital nomad throughout her life, and definitely suffered from the adverse effects that travelling has on one’s skin. With a combination skin type, X was trying her level best to come up with a solution that would help her combat her skincare troubles. If you don’t know this already, combination skin type is one of the most common skin types around; It is signified as dry and sensitive in some areas such as one’s cheeks, and oily in others such as one’s T-zone. So, X starts on a journey of skincare which involved involved a twice-daily (morning & evening) face wash, followed by toner, hydrating face cream, and eye cream. She also included an exfoliating face wash once or two times a week. X didn’t want to exactly disclose the names of the brands, because the problem wasn’t in the brands, the problem was in the fact that the world told X to lather her skin with useless products. What happened after that? Well, nothing positive. Until no time, X started breaking out into little red bumps and developing high sensitivity around the cheek-region. It resulted in her skin being itchy, irritable, and inflamed. After a while, X realised that there was no point in using so many products on her skin which was already on a downgrade. Hence, she chose to blindly follow her father’s advice and eliminated every skincare product from her skincare routine. So, what was the new routine like? This routine was something that X would’ve never thought of adhering to in her wildest dreams. However, in this new routine, X chose to eliminate all the products and just keep the basics in hand. She ensured to wash her face every morning/evening with a damp warm towel (no products at all), and made it a point to use a natural lip balm for her lips, sunscreen during the day, and treated her skin to natural face masks on Sunday (All you need to do is literally spread aloe vera, yogurt or honey on your face.) What happened with this routine was BEYOND ORDINARY. For the first two days, X experienced inflammation where the cheek area got a tad irritated. After all, the skin was so fatigued. After two good days, the skin calmed down and continued to get calmer and calmer. Within ten days, X could notice that her skin had visibly calmed down and it looked significantly relaxed. The spots weren’t very prominent and the itchiness and sensitivity had faded. Within thirty days, X’s skin had adjusted to her new skin and saw pretty good results. Almost everything had faded and she was left with clear, almost supple, baby-like skin. This article isn’t written to make you hate lab-formulated products. However, it’s always ideal to look out for natural ingredients that are extracted from the goodness of the Earth. The usage of so many products definitely exposes our skin to a whole lot of chemicals and strips it off its essential oils. Why on earth would we ever want that for our skin?

AiSPi Wanderlust Diaries: Marzook, L’Afshar, And A Fashion Bender In Mumbai By Shriniwas Kodape AiSPi Wanderlust Diaries: Marzook, L’Afshar, And A Fashion Bender In Mumbai 25 April 2025 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement There are days in Mumbai when the air feels heavier, as if the city’s leaning in, waiting for something to happen. This was one of those days. On the top floors of The St. Regis Mumbai, the curtains pulled back, the champagne flowed too early, and a different kind of storm rolled in — a beautiful, high-fashion cyclone called AiSPi Wanderlust Diaries . Now, if you’ve never heard of AiSPi , let me put it this way — it’s not your typical, sterile pop-up pushing overpriced clichés. No, this is the stuff of fashion folklore, the kind of operation run by people who chase labels in alleyways of Antwerp and underground ateliers in Istanbul. They traffic in stories, not trends. And this weekend, they turned Mumbai into their playground. Marzook was there — those wild, sculptural bags that feel like tiny spaceships for your secrets, glittering like fever dreams under the ballroom lights. These weren’t bags you politely slung over your shoulder. No. These are bags you build an entire damn night around. You walk into a room with a Marzook, and you don’t just arrive — you declare war on subtlety. Then came L’Afshar . Minimalist? Sure. But not in that quiet, forgettable way. Sharp-edged, modern relics that look like they were carved out of glass by someone with a hangover and a god complex. I watched people — the loud, the shy, the ones pretending not to care — run their fingers over those cool, marble-like surfaces. They didn’t just want to carry them; they wanted to be the kind of person who could. And if you drifted past the handbags and martinis, you'd stumble onto things that didn't shout — but whispered in the most intoxicating ways. The Pen Stroke , with hand-drawn journals and prints that made you want to run away to somewhere lawless and write everything down. And The Charm Shop , selling tiny, sparkling talismans — little anchors in a city that never stops spinning. But here’s what most people won’t tell you: It wasn’t about the shopping. Not really. It was about what those pieces made you feel. It was about holding something that carried the fingerprints of another world. About standing in a room full of strangers and thinking, Damn, maybe Mumbai’s finally getting the fashion scene it deserves. And adding to this electric madness, AiSPi unveiled their new Spring/Summer 2025 collections — a breathtaking lineup from 30+ global designers , each piece a portal to some sun-drenched square in Valencia, a candlelit studio in Paris, or a wild rooftop atelier in Tbilisi. These weren’t just collections; they were declarations of where fashion is going next, and Mumbai got the first, intoxicating taste. By evening, the place wasn’t just a pop-up — it was a fever dream. People weren’t browsing; they were hunting. The room smelled like perfume, leather, ambition, and a little danger. And that’s exactly how it should be. Wanderlust Diaries wasn’t a polite fashion event. It was a beautiful, decadent act of rebellion. Proof that in this fast, crowded, endlessly noisy city, there’s still room for things that are rare, strange, and alive. Here’s to more nights like this. More stories told in silk, sequins, scribbled journals, and hard-edged acrylic bags. And to AiSPi — may they keep smuggling this beautiful madness across borders, bringing the world’s finest, strangest, most beautiful things straight into the heart of Mumbai. See you at the next one. Bring your chaos. And your wallet.

Into The Enticing and Harmful World of Fast Fashion by Rupashree Ravi Into The Enticing and Harmful World of Fast Fashion 13 August 2022 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement What comes to your mind when someone says trendy, fashionable, and affordable? Of course, big brands like H&M, Zara, Forever 21, and Shein, which are widely popular and are known for their cheap and fashionable clothing. These are clothing giants that entice their loyal customer base with sales and exciting offers, and you cannot say no to them. But the cost of making these clothes comes at a heavy price. These brands are the biggest players in the fashion industry and are also among the most damaging industries for the environment. They are fast fashion retailers who bring out large quantities of a variety of products and allow consumers to get more fashion and product differentiation at a very low price. Stores like Zara, Forever 21 and H&M are the pioneers of fast fashion in the 21st century ‘Fast fashion’ is cheaply manufactured and low priced garments that copy the latest catwalk styles and get quick entry into retail stores in order to maximise on the current fashion trends. It is called the fast fashion model because it involves rapid design, mass production, and distribution as well as heavy marketing. Today, it takes less than fifteen days for a garment to move from the design stage to being sold physically in stores. The term has gained more prominence in recent times and is often used in conversations revolving around environmental consciousness as well as sustainability. This is extremely worrisome because the fashion industry, especially since the rise of fast fashion, has become the second largest consumer of water and is responsible for 10 per cent of carbon emissions and 20 per cent of wastewater globally. It also dries up water sources and pollutes waterways. This is because these fast fashion retailers use about 700 gallons of water to make one cotton shirt and about 2,000 gallons to make one pair of jeans. Moreover, the textile dyes that they use contribute to polluting these waterways as the chemicals leak into the water, which also poses health risks to the general population. Fast fashion has been growing at an unsustainable rate These brands also use synthetic fibres like polyester, nylon and acrylic which take several years to biodegrade. The fast fashion model is also an energy-intensive process. Even cotton is not an environment-friendly fabric to manufacture for fast fashion companies as they are exposed to a number of pesticides that are very harmful. So, what’s the solution? The alternative to fast fashion is sustainable fashion or eco-fashion. To counter the environmental damage caused by fast fashion, sustainable fabrics like wild silk, organic cotton, hemp, linen, and lyocell can be used in a responsible manner. We can certainly choose to shop in a more sustainable way, but getting involved with sustainable fashion does not necessarily require buying anything new. Sustainable fashion aims to be conscious and ethical Sustainable fashion brands like Brogger, Insom, Ka-Sha focus on bringing out cruelty-free products. They use fewer resources wherever possible to reduce impact and conserve water by using organic mills and ozone technology in its production to benefit people, plants, and animals. Some of these brands also give away their profits to charitable causes. Even vegan leather has become very popular in recent times. Local Indie fashion brands are becoming popular It is essential that we as consumers stop buying from these fast fashion companies and instead choose locally produced garments. Try opting for local Indian brands like Udd Stories or Anokhi that are made by indigenous communities. #FastFashion #SustainableFashion #EcoFashion #VocalForLocal #OOTD SEARCH Why does Fashion Need Fashion Shows FASHION From Dreams To Crowns: Anuradha Garg’s Inspiring Mrs. India Story FASHION Colour Psychology in Fashion: Explained FASHION Legendary Female Icons Who Made Fashion Statements In The 20th Century FASHION The House of Chanel: History FASHION POPULAR POSTS Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement By Sakshi Shah The Art Of Resort Dressing, According To Hanne Bloch 30 July 2026 FASHION By Sakshi Shah The New Foundations Of Style, According To Invogue 27 June 2026 FASHION By Sakshi Shah What's The Colour Of My Voice: Inside The Wonderfully Strange World Of Absent Findings' SS27 23 June 2026 FASHION By Sakshi Shah Caslay and the New Language of Conscious Dressing 17 June 2026 FASHION RELATED POSTS Advertisement

The Modernity Of The Fashion Sphere by Shreya Satish Jorapur The Modernity Of The Fashion Sphere 19 February 2023 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement Glamour, grandeur, glory… The fashion industry encapsulates these three G’s in an intriguing way, which has gradually integrated into our persistent everyday culture too. People are consistently amazed by the extravagance of fashion show, the models, the intricate designs, and their way of living. However, there are two sides of every coin and so is the case here. On the flip side of beauty lies all the perseverance and hardships that lead to it. Let’s discuss the multitude of aspects involved in this industry, assessing the repercussions and effects alike. The treatment of models in the industry is a conflict-inducing topic which can not be generalized. Acknowledgement of the body image issues, disordered eating behaviours, and mental turmoil that accompanies the occupation is very important. The repetitive cycles and beliefs that are ingrained in these models can be detrimental to their journey. In recent times, such issues have been brought to light and attempts towards redemption are being made by companies and authorities. Appreciable steps have been taken regarding inclusivity of gender, race, and body types. There is a plethora of diversity that can be observed in the ramps of today- walkers of different nationalities, identities, and bodies are celebrated and recognized in a widespread manner. Fashion represents cultures and creates a symphony. Heritage and history are also components in fashion. The efficiency, and most importantly, creativity of designers is showcased amazingly. ‘Over the Top’ and ‘Camp’ themes are in trend recently. Along with this, people have become more open to gender-neutral clothing and non-rigidity in fashion. Innovation plays a key role in keeping the audience engaged. Designers and distributers are assured in the popularity of non-conventional styles which majorly appeal to the youth of the time. Fashion has become a form of self expression too. Thousands of people use their clothing, accessories, and even make-up related endeavours to express their convictions, orientations, solidarities and distinct styles. It is an inclusive resort to tangible expressions of the self. Fashion can also be viewed as an art form. It stems from creativity, it blooms into something physical, and causes impression and amusement. Sometimes, even a pleasant overwhelm. The fashion industry has a growing scope for careers and educaton too. Students majoring in fashion for their degrees have multiple opportunities to flourish and prove themselves, be it amidst the public eye or behind the scenes. It is an impressive and unique path to lead towards. Events like the Met Gala, the Paris Fashion Week, and many others around the world provoke demand. Also, personality and beauty pageants like Miss Universe, Miss World, etc, along with their national level counterparts are huge factors too. Movies like ‘Fashion’ by Madhur Bhandarkar explore the personal journeys of models, designers, company leaders, and more, It is a well-rounded and eye-opening narration. Another movie with a personal narration of a prominent name and luxurious brand is ‘Coco Before Chanel’. The song ‘Victoria’s Secret’ by Jax is a call-out to the harmful standards and detections set up. It highlights the ‘Heads’ of the coin. Meanwhile, songs similar to ‘Fashion’ by Lady Gaga focus on the confidence and flair that fashion can ignite, representing the ‘Tails’ of the coin. There are several different aspects to this sector. Though it is not perfect, it does play a significant role in society and is of great influence to certain demographics.

Juggling Two Worlds: The Inspiring Journey Of Kritika Goel LIFESTYLE Juggling Two Worlds: The Inspiring Journey Of Kritika Goel By Anushka Sharma 16 August 2024 Advertisement In today's dynamic world, where traditional career paths intersect with the burgeoning digital landscape, stories of individuals navigating dual careers are both inspiring and enlightening. One such story is that of Kritika Goel, a successful Chartered Accountant (CA) working in “Transaction Advisory, M&A” and an emerging influencer based in Dubai. Her journey, filled with challenges, resilience, and passion, offers valuable insights into balancing a high-demand professional career with a thriving side hustle in the digital space. A Serendipitous Start To Digital Creation Kritika's entry into the world of influence was almost accidental. In late 2019, while playing a popular gibberish challenge on Instagram, she stumbled upon the phrase "I want to be an influencer. " This seemingly random moment struck a chord with her. Living alone in Dubai, away from her family and friends in India, she decided to give it a shot. Overnight, she created her influencer page, initially keeping it a secret from everyone, including her family and friends. Kritika's background is rooted in finance. After completing her education in Delhi, where she excelled with top ranks in competitive exams, she pursued a career in Chartered Accountancy. Her professional journey took her through prestigious firms like Deloitte and PwC, and she currently holds a significant position at Alvarez and Marsal, Dubai. A Balancing Act Between The Two Professions Juggling a demanding corporate job and a growing influence in social media is no small feat. Kritika starts her workday early, often working long hours that extend into the night. Despite her busy schedule, she manages to carve out time for her influencer activities. Weekends are dedicated to shoots, editing, and creating content. Her work is not just about posting pictures or videos; it involves planning, coordinating with brands, and ensuring quality output that resonates with her audience. Her approach to managing both careers is strategic and disciplined. Kritika emphasises the importance of setting boundaries and being selective with collaborations. Early on, she took up various opportunities, from beauty products to food reviews, but soon realised the need to focus. Now, she carefully chooses projects that align with her interests and brand, primarily focusing on lifestyle , travel, and commercial shoots. The Support System And All About It Kritika's story would be incomplete without mentioning the unwavering support of her family, and she says this herself. Her mother, in particular, has been a pillar of strength, encouraging her and even enjoying her unedited videos. This familial support and appreciation has been crucial in her journey, providing her with the confidence to pursue her passion alongside her demanding career. The Future Vision Looking ahead, Kritika sees immense potential in the influencer industry. She acknowledges the growing prominence of influencers, noting how individuals like Kusha Kapila have transitioned from social media personalities to mainstream actors. For Kritika, the goal is not just to maintain her dual career but to eventually find a balance where her passion projects can thrive without compromising her professional responsibilities. Her journey is a testament to the power of resilience, passion, and strategic planning. Her ability to excel in two demanding fields serves as an inspiration for many aspiring professionals and influencers. As the digital landscape continues to evolve, stories like hers highlight the exciting possibilities that lie at the intersection of traditional careers and new-age digital professions.

Pooja Purohit: Turning Passion Into Influence By Sakshi Batra Pooja Purohit: Turning Passion Into Influence 9 February 2025 FASHION Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement From Fashion Dreams To Global Screens Growing up in the vibrant streets of Mumbai, Pooja Purohit never imagined she would one day captivate audiences worldwide. Though she initially pursued fashion design, her passion for creativity remained unwavering. Eager to expand her knowledge, she completed her graduation in commerce while simultaneously refining her design skills on her own. Her creative journey took flight during the lockdown when a friend encouraged her to experiment with fun videos and makeup transformations. Starting on platforms like TikTok and Dubsmash, Pooja’s charm and talent quickly won her a loyal following, setting the stage for her rise in the digital world. The Effort Behind The Content At first glance, content creation might seem effortless, but Pooja knows the truth is far from it. In the early days, she managed everything herself: setting up the camera, arranging lighting, creating ideas, and editing videos. “People think it’s easy, but it takes a lot of hard work,” she says. Her dedication and willingness to learn have been key to her success. A Life-Changing Moment Pooja’s outlook on life shifted dramatically after losing someone close to her. This heartbreaking experience gave her a new perspective. “It taught me what truly matters and made me more grounded,” she shares. This resilience has shaped her work and her life.
