Time To Go Ethnic

Friends, while, two auspicious occasions, “Varalaxmi Vratam” and “Rakshabandhan” are round the corner, let's talk something Ethnic in today's Fashion page.

For women: Its time to invite, Kanaka Mahalaxmi, Goddess of wealth, kanchivarams and banaras are right picks. Along with them, Ikkat silks and Uppdas are still in, while Jute is really making big in market.

If you want to pick up Sarees for office wear, pick up in Jutes and Tassers; kalamkaaris and batiks have their new releases in silks which would also be right pick for the occassion. These kind of sarees will look more eligant when you pair them with printed, handloom blouses. If you are a office goer, make sure that your sarees are simple and yet elegant. Never be too loud when you wear a saree to workplace unless it is asked or you have any wedding theme running @ office.

Teenagers: Half sareers are very apt for this season, if at all girls can carry them well. Otherwise, you can get along with Anarkalis which are surely best and very comfortable. Try for handloom stuff for these girls as they look very good on them. This is the age, teens want to be different from crowd, so picking up ethnic stuff can be very appropriate for the occasions.

Kids: Long skirt and blouse, or long skirt and half blouse along with small chiffon chunny will give them wonderful look. Especially girls between 8-10 years, they always want to imitate their moms, so, skirts with dupattas can surely pep them up. You can try for handlooms for kids. Never spend too much as this is the growing age and they cant wear any dress for more than year. So ensure that you get value for money in whatever you buy for them. When you are dressed so well, take care on your accessories as well. Being simple and elegant is the new fashion mantra and ethnic stuff always helps you to reach there.
