Scroll through the fashion depths of  Instagram and you'd be hard-pressed not to come across Trishna Goklani's feed. Amidst posts on style and brands-to-know are snippets of another pivotal area of Goklani's life: intentional, soul-soothing self-care, shared with her 23.6K followers. Here, the 27-year-old content creator –who is currently based in the UK – speaks on wellbeing during Covid and if personal style can ever truly be a part of the equation.

You believe style can truly be a form of self-care in these unprecedented times.&nbsp;Why do you think that is?

Definitely. Self-care is all about taking the time off to feel good, whatever that may be. It has been popularised as being this thing that often involves face masks, long baths&hellip; and while all that is somewhat true, sometimes it can be as simple as putting on something that makes you feel amazing. Especially in a time like now, where life is almost at a halt&nbsp;and every day feels like groundhog day.&nbsp;

How has your style changed over the past year?

A lot and not really. I&rsquo;ve always been someone who dresses for comfort and that&rsquo;s something that I&rsquo;ve definitely lived by this past year. Some mornings I wake up and I feel like I&#39;ve forgotten how to put things together &ndash; but it&#39;s been freeing because I don&#39;t feel like my sense of identity is as tied to fashion anymore or the way I look. It&#39;s been quite healing for me. I also tend to put things together now keeping function in mind.&nbsp;

What are some of your favourite go-to items that have helped with your sense of self and well-being these past few months?

Before the pandemic, I didn&rsquo;t own a pair of joggers or sweatpants. Now, I have about five. I think comfortable and stylish loungewear has been the main theme for me this year. I also love ribbed knit leggings and I have this one pair from Sandro with a matching top and hoodie that makes me feel like I&rsquo;m wearing one of those iconic Juicy Couture&nbsp;sweatpants, haha. Another thing I can&rsquo;t live without is my jewellery.&nbsp;With on-screen interactions taking over human to human contact, there&rsquo;s so much you can do to make a good impression over a tiny screen &mdash; my beautiful hoops from Daphine are probably the one thing I wear every single day.&nbsp;

Any new fashion brand discoveries during this time?

I&rsquo;ve actually been discovering so many incredible independent brands at this time such as Hades and Bethany Williams.

Any particular things you have given up style or beauty-wise?

Because I&rsquo;m in the countryside at the moment, there are a few things I haven&rsquo;t been able to wear. White jeans, white boots&hellip; but other than that, my beauty routine has been pretty minimal with a focus on skincare now that I have the luxury of taking baths in the evening and spending heaps of&nbsp;time with myself.&nbsp;
