One glance at Alanna Panday‘s Instagram feed and it is easy to see why she has been dubbed as the IT-Girl of influencers. Known for her dreamy aesthetic, whimsical dressing and family vlogs, the model and influencer has the internet in a chokehold, and how!

Recently seen on the Indian reality television series The Tribe, Alanna Panday has quickly established herself in the world of digital content creation. From her fashion inspiration to her aesthetic and her beauty secrets, the influencer graciously answered all our burning questions, right from breaking down her thought process before curating every outfit.

Alanna Panday’s fashion inspiration

It is no secret that Alanna’s fashion choices are a hit on social media, but when asked what her biggest inspiration is while creating her look, she stated, ” I find inspiration everywhere, from my surroundings to the people I meet, and even through my travels. However, my biggest inspiration is my love for simplicity and dreamy aesthetics. My aesthetic has always been very feminine, dreamy, and more on the pastel tones. I like to mix minimal and modern styles with earthy tones, creating looks that are understated but still have a unique twist. It’s all in the details for me and about feeling confident and comfortable in what you’re wearing.”

As for which fashion trend she has been loving right now, the award goes to – vintage, of course! “I love that vintage and old-school silhouettes are making a comeback not just with fashion but with hair and make-up too,” she said.

While we all are majorly aware of fashion trends being cyclical, Alanna has a particular item she hopes will never make a comeback. She confesses, “Really oversized baggy clothes” are not something she wants to see on the streets again.

When asked about the beauty essentials she swears by, Alanna answered, “I always keep a few essentials close, a nourishing moisturiser, a really good lip balm, and a lightweight SPF that works well under makeup. I also keep hydrating throughout the day so that also helps my skin feel fresh from within. For makeup, I can’t live without a great blush and a nude lipstick, they always tie a look together.”

While influencers are well known for being EXTRA with their 1000-step skincare routine, Alanna has no qualms in choosing her faves and sticking to them. If she had to narrow down her skincare routine to only 3 steps, she says would choose, “a gentle cleanser, a hydrating serum, and a really good sunscreen. A clean base is key for me, the serum adds that extra glow and hydration, and SPF is non-negotiable for keeping my skin protected and healthy. These three steps keep my skin balanced and glowing.”

As for how her routine has changed after becoming a mom, she says, “After becoming a mom, I’ve learned to take things slow and listen to my body more. My skincare is more ingredient-conscious now, I’m very careful about what I put on my skin, opting for clean, natural products. I also follow a clean diet and stay hydrated. For fitness, I’ve embraced light pilates and gentle exercises, taking it one step at a time. It’s more about wellness and balance now, rather than pushing myself too hard.”

Alanna Panday’s aesthetic DECODED

What is Alanna Panday’s go-to mantra for her extremely aesthetic Instagram feed?

‘Consistency is key for me,’ she states. Elaborating further, she says, “I lean towards minimal, modern aesthetics with pastel tones because they feel authentic to my personality. You can see even on the show, my mantra is to keep things simple yet out of the box, whether it’s fashion, travel, or lifestyle content. I like to focus on clean, well-composed dreamy visuals that speak to my audience and make them feel inspired. “
