Traditional is the new modern!
I remember the day when my cousin playfully told me that I wasn’t pretty and modern enough to understand fashion. Maybe because when everyone else in the class was busy writing ambitions in each others’ slam books, I was sitting at the corner, putting ideas in ink and imagination into colors. Maybe because I preferred gold medal at that age over the gold sequined dress. Even then I knew ‘fashion’ was something very personal and unique, instead of a ‘one size fits all’ formula that is updated each season like the mass production powered fashion houses would pay ad gurus to make you believe.
Fashion is like a signature- to each his (or her) own. It is the first, unspoken, spontaneous ‘hello’ you say to everyone you cross on the street. So why make it forgettable, why not squeeze in a little bit about yourself in there? I get upset seeing every other girl on the street in western outfits, making a boring attempt of keeping it “casual” and “modern”. I am not a fashion extremist. My wardrobe is full of vibrant, colorful dresses, gypsy trinkets, bohemian bags and handpicked tribal jewelry but I still wear neutrally toned coats, knee touching boots, body-hugging skirts or striped pants paired with blouses to work. But when it comes to wearing casuals on weekends, I always love infusing Indian, bohemian and western styles, creating a unique and wearable look.
Keeping my ranting aside and coming back to this post, I collaborated with this talented photographer, Shardul, who I’ve been friends with on Instagram for months, but had never actually met! We finally met for the first time the day we did this photo walk and spent a day traveling to different places in San Francisco while having a frenzied talk. My first encounter with San Francisco was exciting but I was equally nervous and lost in a city full of strangers, scouring craigslist postings every day to find an apartment, feeling lonely and making daily tearful phone calls to my family and close friends, trying to decipher why, when I will get used to staying completely alone. But eventually things started to fall into place, I found a-little-out-of-budget but an absolutely beautiful apartment with a bay-view, my own little room which I decorated with all the souvenirs I collected during my travels, settled in my new office, spending weekdays working hard and weekends exploring new places, new cities, making new friends and memories. Finally, I learned to be completely independent and comfortable in my own skin.
I walked out enthusiastically on California streets wearing a navy blue Indian kurta for this photo walk, which I had almost forgotten about since the time I bought it. I picked up oxidized silver neckpiece and earrings while scouting the local market in Colaba, Mumbai. I’ve teamed this FabAlley kurta with Zara pants and accessorized it with a bold oxidized ring I picked up from Venice beach in Los Angeles and finished the do with red stilettos from Steve Madden to balance the color tone and create a traditional-casual look.
