by

Kriti Sanon has been making sartorial choices that we cannot get enough of presenting. When it comes to finding the right balance between comfort, style, and colours, actress Kriti Sanon has always been ahead of the curve. 

Kriti Sanon has always spunk an eclectic wave about her. The actress has been busy promoting her upcoming film over the last few weeks and has been spotted out and about the city looking chic.

Giving us a brand new look on a brand new day, Kriti was all dressed up in a simple chocolatey brown wrap-style dress with a broad shoulder. The suede brown outfit was accessorized with a matching statement brown belt and peep-toe tie-up stilettos. Stylist Sukriti Grover kept her accessories basic with simple hoop earrings from Minerali and stacked-up rings.

When we chatted with her stylist Sukriti Grover, she had mentioned that Kriti is someone who is always open to experimenting and doesn’t need too much of a push to try something new!

We loved Kriti’s styling and the seamless way in which her accessories blended with her outfit. While subtle makeup, and pale lip colour tied her whole look together, her benign smile made her look even more radiating. Be it glamorous red carpet events, cozy house parties, or casual public appearances, the actress shells out major outfit inspiration ideas. She is surely taking millennial fashion trends to a whole new and exciting level.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Kriti Sanon will next be seen in ‘Mimi’ sharing screen space with Pankaj Tripathi. She will also be seen sharing screen space with Prabhas and Saif Ali Khan’ in Om Raut’s ‘Adipurush’.
