My Indian Ethnic look.


 sarisaree or shari is a South Asian female garment that consists of a drape varying from five to nine yards  in length and two to four feet  in width that is typically wrapped around the waist, with one end draped over the shoulder, baring the midriff. 



The sari is usually worn over a petticoat with a fitted upper garment commonly called a blouse The blouse may or may not have  sleeves and is usually cropped at the midriff. 




The sari is associated with grace and is widely regarded as a symbol of IndianPakistani, NepaleseBangladeshi and Sri Lankan culture.







In this sari avatar, I am wearing a jute blended cotton saari in golden/ khakhi colour combination. The fabric is cool and just right for the hot ahmdabadi warm days. 

Its 5.5 metre saree with matching blouse piece. I created a simple round neck, short sleeved blouse. 

I teamed up with stone jewellary in matching colours to add spark to simple and plain saree.



Since sari is just simple, some stone jewellary added some chick. I used red lipstick to add some bright colours to the  look. No eye makeup , just little darkening of of eyebrows, which I think is just right for my age....of 20 + :). How many plusses makes all the difference to makeup styles!
