Gold Sold: Personal Fashion

Images by NURBS

Shorts, Purple top, Leopard Wedges: TopShop; Sweater: Zara; Gold kicks: Irregular Choices

I am obsessed with this sweater. It looks like an old grandmom sweater and that is why I can't seem to stop wearing it. The shorts and top are a cool blinged out combination. And you know me. To me, more is more [I shall tone it down and be subtle when I am old...mayyyybee]. The gold kicks are my newest most favorite possession ever. I have been wearing them nonstop too. At first I was kinda reluctant to wear them to my very conservative architecture/ real estate firm, but then I realized that my co-workers would have gotten used to me by now [with my red hair and other daily fashion shocks]. So I did it. I wore them to work :). Most people liked them, the others were sweet enough to say "they are totally you". I really appreciate that, I have to say. A million people don't get us but if they just let us be who we are without judgement or snarky comments, the world will be a better place.

Bumped into Subi Roberto, a cool miami artist, at the shoot who also had an Indian nose ring in her hotel room [the location is the front garden of a hotel in soho where she was put up] and while NURBS and I where shooting, ran up stairs and joined us in the end of our shoot for a quick nath [nose ring] photo. I love people who get excited about creativity.

Feather Head: Street Fashion

Top: Opening Ceremony; Skirt: DIY; Feather Head gear: Made by a Friend.

While a whole group of street fashion photographers flocked towards someone really famous walking out of the tents, I found myself running in the complete opposite direction chasing after Neon Hitch. All I could see were her feathers and I had to have that documented. I love the back of that bustier with the leather ruffles and the cool bling she is sporting on her face. How gorgeous is she btw? Neon is a singer and a complete rock star with her fashion.

Check out some of her music here.

Shoe Pics by Guerre : NYFW

You Have The Eyebrow for It: Street Fashion

Images by Prutha Raithatha

Spotted at the IFB [Independent Fashion Blogger] conference that I attended for the first time this year. Dru Hilty's Prada eyebrow glasses could not be passed without documenting them in person. I have only seen them in pictures so far and I was super excited to have spotted them. Her vintage-y style with the glasses make for a very interesting look. Now I am obsessing over them and want them too. Was cool meeting you Dru. 

Deep Purple [Prabal Gurung SS2012]: for Vogue.in

As an architect there was one massive reason I moved to the United States of America after college and that was to be like my idol architect Frank Gehry. I remember the first time I stepped into a building designed by him, I cried. Profusely. So image my excitement on getting my invite to one of my favorite fashion designer’s shows to be taking place in a Frank Gehry designed building. I really want this show to happen again just so that I can feel the pure pleasure I felt being in that moment again. Art everywhere. I can’t explain the immense impact the structure had on the collection either. The white translucency of the glass façade on the white, purple and black collection, which also had a lot of shear, played perfectly well together. 

The orchid lips and the butterfly sunglasses are definitely the trade marks of this season’s collection. Prabal knows how to design in detail. Here are some of the glimpses from the show but I can bet they do not make up for the real experience.

Nicki Minaj in all her funk glory. Major love.

Taylor caught in action. I would love for her to read stories to my future kids with those expressions.
