For the Ladies – Accessorise your\u00a0<\/span>Churidar Kameez<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Bored of the usual flowing silhouettes, try the chic look. Dress in a bright churidar kameez and accessorise it with heavy chand balis (studded round earrings) which are very much in vogue! When it comes to choosing the colors; go for the neon colors like pink, blue or green. Churidaars teamed with heeled stilettos also add to the charm. Put on light make up with a dash of Kohl, light lip-gloss and slightly darker eye shadow for smokey eyes and try a different hairstyle.<\/p>\n

The Anarkali Ahoy for a royal look<\/span><\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

Anarkalis are in trend again but with variations in length, flair, cut, embroidery and neck designs. Velvet appliqu\u00e9, floral motifs and crystals are giving a welcome twist. Knee length anarkalis look chic with fitted churidars. For a different look try anarkali with ethnic jackets. They can be worn with heavy jewellery and high heels or can be flaunted with less formality with minimal accessories and maybe without a stole. Mojaris are also a good match with the anarkalis. Try top knots for the hair.<\/p>\n

The Sensuous Saree with a designer blouse<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Pick a bright colored sari, drape it over the shoulder and get that million-dollar look. The trend of a simple saree in a lively colour teamed with creatively designed blouses is universal and everlasting. The Chinese collared blouse and the boat neck shaped blouses with half sleeves are very much in trend this season. Colours like gold, red, fuchsia and orange in net and chiffon are good options. Also Saris with fishtail flare are a rage these days, combine it with a sexy choli with tassels at the back. Accessorize with a gorgeous kundan bracelet and lovely jhumkas and don\u2019t forget to wear braided hair.<\/p>\n

You can also pick up a long skirt and a spaghetti top, which will go with a pigtail plait. Remember to go for dramatic make up as well to complete the look. Smoky eyes can accentuate your face and add a chic look to your attire. Oxidized and tribal jewelry seamlessly go with this look too.<\/p>\n
