Everyone wants to be an it girl: peaceful, productive, glowing, disciplined. I still aspire to be her, I just don't aspire to look like her anymore. This is my Indian It Girl Guidebook, the one I wish I had a few years back.

You asked for the links, so here is everything I use and love, all in one place. Some are brands, some are small makers, and some are just my tailor bhaiya. Save this for later.
