Hello Ladies!
How are you
all?
Well, the
festive season is around the corner and we all love to dress up. So here I am
with a few ideas of how we can style one lehnga in two different ways.
I have this
old brocade lehnga which I bought from Jaipur just for Rs.300, and it was just
the shirt part, so I thought that I can mix and match it with something and
make a new dress out of it.
So, the
first look I created was a perfect mix of beautiful and bright colours and
turned out to be my husband’s favourite look.
I used an
old silk sleeveless blouse that has gotta patti work at its back with an old fuchsia
pink colour tissue dupatta. Teamed it up with a Hyderabadi pearl necklace and
matching earrings and pink and purple handmade thread bangles.
For makeup, I’ve
done nothing much, just Ponds BB cream, eye liner and a Gosh Lipstick. I’ve
tied my hair taking from the front in a very simple way for this simple look.
For the
second look, I’ve teamed up the brocade lehnga with this gold beige kurti that
I owned from a long time and had never worn it. The kurti has gotta patti work
on it and the work is red in colour. I had this bandhej silk heavy dupatta to
go with the kurti. The dupatta is red and orange in colour and has red,pink and
golden gotta patta work on the border.
The make up
is the same but the jewellery here is from Malabar Gold, Dubai. It’s a simple
and very light chain set with matching earrings and a long pearl chain necklace.
Just like
this, you can create other looks with your dresses that you have already worn
for some time and now wish to do or create something new with those. Explore
your ethnic collection. As Indian women, we all have different type of blouses,
skirts, lehngas and a wide range of dupattas. Try experimenting with the
collection you have and I’m sure you will find and create something unique that
you can call your own.
As I told
you already, that I’m expecting our second child, these dresses are pregnancy
friendly. The first option is very light in weight and is very breathable and
the kurti option is also quiet comfortable to wear, you can certainly avoid
wearing the dupatta or style it up with a lighter one as per your choice and convenience.
