Diaries of a Working Woman

There’s so much more to crop tops than just baring your midriff, it’s capable of being a part of any perfect concoction of styles, whether it’s dressing down for a lazy day or whether it’s stepping up your style agenda and pairing it with high waisted pants or a skirt and Ananya Panday is proof. Crop tops have become the most obvious choice for fashion and this year we’re seeing crop tops beyond the basic tank tops with great detailing; puffed up sleeves, ruffled feathers and so much more. Ahead, take cues from Ananya Panday and learn how to elevate the basic garment.

It’s safe to say that Ananya Panday’s got a knack for putting together insouciant looks that also somehow always manage to look camera-ready. The 21-year-old’s off-duty closet is full of It-girl favourites, and she knows how to style them well. One day you’ll see her grabbing lunch at Bastian in a bright yellow playsuit, and on another you may spot her out and about in the city in white jeans and a crop top. Most recently, Panday shared a series of snapshots captured at her Mumbai residence, in which she was seen in yet another comfortable, picture-perfect look: a brown Deme by Gabriella co-ord set. If her blouse looks familiar, it’s because it’s been spotted on another celebrity quite recently. Just weeks ago, Malaika Arora picked a similar number in satin for her night out. Scroll now to check out how Panday wore the look.

Ananya Panday’s latest outfit comprised of a chocolate brown crop top styled with a pair of matching pants in satin. Featuring an off-shoulder ruffled neckline, the crop top highlighted not just her shoulders, but also her perfectly sculpted abs. With the focus on her monotone outfit, she kept it minimal in the accessory department and opted for nothing but her favourite diamond ring. Beauty wise, she complemented her ensembles with barely-there washes of terra cotta lipstick and eyeshadow, and left her chestnut brown hair open in waves. 

On days when putting together a whole look is the last thing on your mind, a fuss-free coordinated set makes the perfect pick. While heading out for a dinner date, take a leaf out of Ananya Panday’s stylebook with an easy look like this one. Bonus: you can also style each separate with other pieces in your closet to create interesting new looks. Start shopping! 

With only three days left for the release of Student of the Year 2, debutante Ananya Panday’s excitement is almost palpable. The young star has been busy with promotions, and the last leg saw Panday and her co-stars Tiger Shroff and Tara Sutaria step out for an event in New Delhi. For the same, Panday sported a co-ord set—a pair of high-waisted trousers teamed with a long jacket, worn over a matching bandeau top in blue and white stripes. Smart and breezy in equal measure, the ensemble is an ideal pick for a brunch with your friends.

A pair of blue block heels effortlessly elevated Ananya Panday’s outfit at her recent outing. Coming to her beauty look, the actor opted for centre-parted poker straight hair and minimal makeup—nude glossy lips, black eyeliner, and a touch of blush—that complemented her look. Panday skipped out on accessories and let her outfit do the talking. Why not add a similar outfit to your summer wardobe? Scroll ahead for some must-see options.

Playful, easy and flirty—Ananya Panday’s aesthetic is fun and cheery, with floral dresses, cool jackets and tie-dye sweats often gracing her Instagram feed. But while the 22-year-old loves a pop of colour every now and then, she doesn’t mind exploring neutrals too. In a recent Instagram post (which seems to be from a past vacation), Panday decided to go with the classic white top-and-jeans combo, but managed to spruce it up by picking not-so-basic separates. She also stayed true to her personal style and wore the outfit with Gen Z-approved accessories. Scroll for more on her holiday look.

In her social media post, Ananya Panday gave us a peek at her well-toned midriff in a white panelled crop top that featured exposed seams and a high neck. She paired the top with high-waisted jeans that came in a dramatic flared cut and featured chunky buttons instead of a classic zip. To complete the look, the actor went with fail-safe white sneakers and a beige animal print handbag. Her colourful stacked bracelets and unexpected blue manicure gave the look a signature Ananya Panday-approved finish.
