The ‘Wonder Woople’ series features users who are passionate about fashion or food or both. They are the people who spot new, interesting things and love self-expression. They are our tastemakers, influencers and curators.
Freelance photographer Desha Gehi is this week’s Wonder Woople. She’s quite chirpy, loves to travel, and is one of our first users from Mumbai! We caught up with her during her vacations for a quick chat on the things she loves about her city, her choices in food and shopping amongst other things. Read on…
Tell us a bit about yourself
I currently work at Time Out Mumbai and love every bit of my gorgeous city. I’m also a freelance photographer by profession and a foodie by choice. I love to capture life through my lens. Cupcakes, music and books are my mood-changers. I love to travel and explore different cultures. Little things in life mean a lot to me.
Which are your favourite brands?
My favorite brands would be Zara, Mac, HnM, Bath & Body Works, The Body Shop, Vero Moda and many more. If a girl ever answer’s this question, the list will surely be never-ending.
What is the craziest thing you have purchased?
The craziest thing I’ve ever purchased is a blonde wig. It’s golden with colorful streaks and crazy beyond words.
If you could splurge on one thing, what would it be?
I would splurge on cupcakes, like always :)
Which song is on loop on your iPod right now?
Wonderwall by Oasis
Your favourite shopping destination and your fav getaway?
My favorite shopping destination would be New York City. I could live there forever and just shop, shop and shop till I drop. My favorite getaway would be Dubai as it is a lively place with different cultures.
Street-shopping or the shopping malls?
A bit of both. I shop for anything I see and love, be it from the malls or the streets.
Who would you like to see most on Wooplr?
I would like to see Le 15, Pooja Dhingra’s famous dessert store on Wooplr. The desserts are delicious especially the macrons. I would also like to see The Home Label, Suzzane Roshan’s Interior brand. Her brand stocks very interesting interior aesthetics.
