It’s the first day of September that means Mahalaya is in about a couple of weeks and that marks the onset of the great Indian festive season. Keeping the unfavourable situation in mind, I am assuming most of us are not yet ready for the festivities which is quite normal! In today’s post, I will be showing you how you can make your existing outfit festive enough to rock the upcoming celebrations.

I have always believed in ‘less is more’. My wardrobe is always full of things I actually wear (despite a few). I am definitely not a hoarder when it comes to clothes. So, most of the time I am either repeating my outfits which you must know if you follow me on Instagram or I mix and match and honestly, that is my favourite thing to do especially with ethnic wear. If you think creatively, making an ethnic outfit from scratch isn’t that tough. All you need is a plain solid coloured kurta or tunic and a gorgeous dupatta like the one I got from Omgee Fashions. To make it all a little more put together, add some statement earring (they can never go wrong!), make a sleek hairstyle and throw on some of your favourite makeup and voila! You are ready to rock. Now, here are some pictures of how my look turned out to be.

Hi, everyone! Hope you are doing well. During summers, not very often we get the chance to dress up like we want to. That’s because the heat and the humidity don’t allow us to do so. The fashionista inside us goes through restricted ideas of summer fashion. Dressing up and finding the best outfit can be a little tricky. We need to choose the colour, fabric and fit very wisely. You need something that is made out of breathable fabric like cotton, rayon and linen, something that complements your body type at the same time fitting you loosely so that your body gets the space to breathe, and colours that are soft or bright depending on the time you are wearing it.

Today, I wanted to share my idea of summer fashion with an embroidered kurti and colour block palazzos.

This Imara kurti from Myntra is made of 100% Rayon which is completely breathable and super comfy to wear on a hot and humid summer day. I loved wearing this during the shoot. I could pose for hours and still feel comfortable in it. It felt like I am wearing my home clothes. The short sleeves make it perfect for summers. The hemline is a bit curved and it has got red colour blocks on either side of the hemline which is not visible in the photos. The buttoned down back is the thing I liked the most about this kurti. Back buttons are not usually found in ethnic pieces so I really loved it. I also liked the edgy intricate, geometrical embroidery around the neckline. This kurti has a boat neck.

The solid red palazzos from People are also made of breathable Rayon fabric. The cut and fit of the palazzos are perfect for me. It shaped my body very well. I loved how flowy and breezy these are. The material made it very comfortable to wear them. Palazzos are best to perk up your summer fashion game. Tuck in your top/kurtis to make your legs appear longer while wearing palazzos

I paired up these wedged sandals from Reliance Footprint to style my outfit. There are several reasons for me to love these sandals. Firstly, they are silver and I love everything that is gold and silver. It adds a bling to your ethnic ear. Secondly, the heels are super comfortable to walk on. Thirdly and most importantly, it adds height to my body to make me look taller. Palazzos tend to make short women look shorter, so you need to take care of that. Reliance Footprint has a great range of women shoes at a very reasonable price range. You definitely need to check it out. Currently, they are having a Buy 2 get 50% off sale which you can’t miss. I bought a lot of shoes already! #sorrynotsorry

Hi, guys! Spring is right around the corner and there are a lot of people who are planning to re-organize their wardrobes. I remember, last year I did a post on organising your Spring/Summer wardrobe? I that post I had mentioned only western clothes and accessories. I know there are a lot of women who prefer wearing Indian wear for any and every occasion. So, I thought of going out of the box and post some ethnic outfit ideas for them. I personally love BIBA kurtas, so I have picked up my favourites from their latest collection. These kurtas are best for any time of the day, be it daytime or night time. Some of them are great options for work/office wear.

I have six different kurtas of six different styles and colours to show you guys. All of them are suitable for both day and night time. These kurtas are so perfect for spring and summer. So, let’s start-

This Spring Go Ethnic with BIBA Kurtas| Cherry On Top

My first pick is this beautiful pastel green kurta with an embroidered jacket. This looks so chic and sophisticated and yet so festive. You can easily wear this to work. The floral embroidery makes it very feminine and perfect for spring.

My next pick is again a pretty pastel peachy-pink kurta that has a unique tie-up style on both sides near the waist. It has a very high side-slit and layers that make it quite apt for special occasions like dates. This blush pink colour looks very feminine and perfect for daytime uses. You can pair this up with leggings or palazzos.

I love the colour blue. It is my favourite colour. How could this beautiful straight blue kurta go unnoticed while I browsed through their collection! I love the ensemble that the model have on her. If I was to style this up I would have definitely go with something like that. This kurta is again perfect for work. Because of its soft colour, it is also perfect for summers. Just wear some silver jhumkas with this and you are good to go!

My fourth pick is this pretty white and yellow layered kurta. This kurta also has some nature inspired prints on it which is again perfect for spring. Both the print and the design of this kurta is very unusual which attracted me the most. This can easily be worn for lunch and dinner dates.

I wanted to give you an option of bold colours for those who love to play with colours and love bright shades. This asymmetric kurta is a great option for young girls for many day and night time occasions and also for college.

How can I write an outfit guide without a black outfit? Black is a colour that suits everybody. You can always wear this kurta for college, work, shopping or even for traditional functions. This kurta has a good length, an asymmetric design, full sleeves and comfortable fit. I personally like it a lot.

Sometimes it is really hard to buy kurtas online because you are never too sure of the sizes, materials and fits. BIBA is a brand that I totally trust. They have the best fit ever no matter what!

So, guys!  What do you prefer the most- ethnic or western?
