The A-List
Rekha Sen, co-founder of Ankha Jewellery, shares her top picks for the summer. 1 I’m currently studying energy, and right by my bed is this book by Cyndi Dale. It is so important to be aligned internally with ourselves. Fashion, after all, is an expression of the self and the journey that starts from within. 2 When it comes to statement jewellery, nothing compares to Lotus Art de Vivre. These exquisite earrings made from scarab beetle wings are a show-stopper. 3 I adore this ruffled asymmetrical skirt. Perfectly versatile, as it can be dressed down during the day and easily transitioned into a slinky number in the evening. 4 I love Dipytique L’Ombre dans l’Eau. Reminiscent of taking a stroll through a lush English garden, its sensual floral scent is subtle and beautiful. 5 When it comes to clothes, I tend to go for muted tones, and let my accessories and jewellery do all the talking. However, I do break this up with the occasional print. This Altuzarra dress is graphic yet classic at the same time. 6 Last year, my dear friend Anuja Kedia and I launched a jewellery line called Ankha. I wear my Ankha Starburst necklace wherever I go; from the gym to dinner parties, it is perfect for any occasion. 7 I highly recommend anything from Charlotte Tilbury. I use this pencil to give my eyes that dramatic pop and sparkle. 8 Timeless, stylish, and unique, this leather top handle bag in red is on my must-have list for the season. 9 One of my favourite designers is Roland Mouret. Known in the fashion realm for his signature aesthetic and mastery of dressing the female silhouette, his classicchic designs stand the test of time. 10 I’ve just returned from a trip to America with the kids. We had the pleasure to dine in one of Los Angeles’s most talked-about restaurant, Gjelina. With its mouth-watering menu, sensational ambience, and family-friendly setting, this place ticks all the right boxes.
