What To Wear To Your Sangeet ~ Indian Bridal Wear

May 14, 2015 BY CyberKID 0 Comments

Sangeet is one the functions that none of the brides like to miss. According to 95% brides, sangeet and Cocktail are the two most fun functions of an Indian wedding. Sangeet is all about keeping aside all your worries and nervousness for a day and simply dancing and enjoying the moment.

It demands the most fun, carefree and comfortable outfit. When you are choosing your sangeet keep three things in mind:

1>> Choose a light outfit: We are not asking you to quit all the bling but just keep it minimal. Make sure the outfit is light weight and manageable because sangeet is usually before the actual wedding day and you don't want to tire yourself before the big day. Besides, you'll have to dance which will be impossible with a heavy outfit and the chances are you won't have much fun. So, choose a LIGHT WEIGHT dress.

2>> Choose something flowy and flared: There's nothing which looks more prettier than a flowy outfit while you are dancing! :)

3>> Choose the right accessories: Let whatever you wear be light weight. Skip the necklace, go for signature earrings. A jhoomar/ mang tika on the head will add a dramatic, chic look!

Here are some style inspirations for your Sangeet:

This is what the Divas Diya Mirza, Genelia and Amala Paul wore for their own Sangeets. I loved Genelia's outfit the most! Dia Mirza made a statement by choosing a not so sought out colour ~ blue. She looked beautiful! What Amala wore is the majority of Indian brides' favourite ~ Classic gold, it can never go wrong! Genelia's dupatta drape was fabulous!

Floor length Anarkalis are the most sought out outfits by Indian brides today. They have something about them which is simply irresistible. Even if you wear minimal jewelry these floor length Anarkalis transform you into a classic vision.

For brides who would like to choose a more western look, the above are great choices! Even if you are choosing western wear, the key is to opt for something elegant, minimalist in bling and flowy/flared.

The above are real brides whom I came across Pinterest. The colors they have chosen are a treat to the eyes. The hairstyles are superb too!

These are the Sangeet collection outfits by renowned designers featured by models walking the ramp. All of them are pure gorgeous! The first and last one are my personal favs! The centre ones are quite unique and totally appropriate for a sangeet too!

Edgy Fashion Forward Outfit ideas to wear at the next wedding you attend

September 16, 2014 BY CyberKID 0 Comments

What will you wear to the next indian wedding you will attend? Well most common answer is keep it ethnic with lehenga,sari , Anarkali or salwar simple. Simple yes, but boring too

Lehengas are very heavy and difficult to manage and the anarkalis well the majority women out there will be seen sporting one . Ofcourse it isnt a bad idea to be a part of the majority but what if the wedding is of your sister/ brother or a very close family member or friend? You definitely want to make an impact and stand out, here are some very edgy fun outfit options to try

Anarkali Lehenga : The anarkali lehengas are similar to flowy anarkalis but come with a lehenga underneath to add more layers. This has been in trend for quite sometime now and I infact wore one of this on my sisters marriage. Similar to a Jacket lehenga the lehenga anarkalis may have slits to show contrasting colour of lehenga underneath so I suggest you choose colours wisely or just choose in net without slit for a sheer midriff . These are very easy to find , enter shops like Meena Bazaar and you are done.

Saree Gowns: If managing saree is a hard thing for you saree gowns come to your rescue. Saree gown is an indo western option where the pleats of a saree are stitched in a gown . Very Fashion Forward and hassle free too. Sonam Kapoor wears these gown sarees well and when she wore it to cannes this year I turned a fan.

Crop top Lehenga: I have already blogged about my crush on Ridhi Mehra creations and her crop tops are a top favorite. Pair a crop top similar to Ridhis creation with a simple lehenga for effortless chic look. This is very inexpensive way to make a stylish ethnic appearance since the lehenga can be made out of plain net and use some plain or printed cloth to get yourself a crop top stitched. On the flip side you need a flat belly to carry this off, if you have one go show off!

Indo-western Fusion gown with slit: Remember what deepika wore to Comedy nights with kapil for ramleela promotions (see Here)? Well you could wear something similar to that and stand out at a wedding. A gown similar to an anarkali with an embellished but and a high slit paired with tights or chudidaar. Fuss free look as you can skip the dupatta here!

Plazzos or Sharara Pants: Pair a pair of plazzos with a kurta and you are good to go. This is more of a pakistani silhouette but is soon catching up in india too. Colour block your kurta and plazzos, a shorter kurta or an extra long kurta coupled with rich fabrics like silk and jamawar will make the outfit stand out.

Masaba/ Digital prints saree : If you are a saree person then try masaba kind quirky prints. The prints are fresh and different making you stand out. Since these sarees arent embellished you can pair them with statement jewelry and embellished clutches. Masaba sarees are easy to find online and they are loads of copies doing round sin local markets too. Go get one and Stand Out.
