Naina Bajaj, a city-based student who was shopping with her mother for a beach vacation, says, “We didn’t want to spend a bomb at the malls. So, we came to Sarojini! We got a cami top here at 250 to wear to the beach.” Meanwhile, Delhiite Narmada Kaushal, who will be going to Shimla for a staycation soon, shares, “I am going on a trip and wanted a pair of chunky shoes. Boots are good for summer vacations in the hills! I’m also buying coord and tie-dye sets, a couple of sandals and some jewellery.”
