Prutha Raithatha: The Fashionista


            I have been thinking about doing this blog for quite some time but kept running into technical difficulties like I am not a photographer, I don’t even have a good camera, I am single, living on my own and hence do not have anyone to take pictures of me [if I wanted], I am super busy getting life in order [read lazy!!], etc. etc..  But I finally found my partner in crime, a fab photographer Shraddha. Over one lunch and random talks, we decided to collaborate, picked up her camera and started walking around the streets of NYC and clicking random strangers. That’s what I call “getting things done”.

           Some things you should know about me: I am an architect by profession, but aspire to be in fashion, in any form. Designer, stylist, choreographer,  personal shopper, stage designer, shoe shiner…I don’t care…but being in fashion is the ultimate goal. I love shoes like any "Sex and the city" watching girl. I obsess over things I-have-to-have way too much and the only way to stop the obsession is to actually go get what I want. I am not skinny at all and I love myself the way I am. I believe in dressing for the size I am and honestly I think I do a pretty good job.

           Originally from Mumbai, I now live in NYC. I love colors, confidence and character. Life is beautiful and I live to have fun. This blog is an experiment in archiving my personal fashion taste over a period of time and seeing how it develops. It should be fun to see what I think of my harem pants in 2020…lol….
