HOW I TURNED MY GRANDMOM'S SILK SAREE INTO A SKIRT

HELLO LADIES !!!

What's happening? Last week one of my closet school friend got married. I still can’t digest the fact that she’s married and we are all of marriageable age.  

Today's post is all about how i used my grandmother's silk saree to make a lehenga which i used it as a skirt for this post.

This season has seen a lot of silks lately. I have seen the fabric being used in such a varied products and it makes me just splurge all my spending in its purchase. Moreover i personally feel that our country has loads of potential in its heritage, be it our country, our heritage, our fabric, our food, our everything basically. We just need to believe in ourselves!!

I always term my shopping as an investment to my dad.(However he begs to differ somehow:-P)

Promotion of silks has been on the rise even so because our fashion designers have been pretty much philanthropic in this matter!!

I am definitive that all you pretty ladies have beautiful mothers and grandmothers who somewhere in their wardrobes have hidden heritage silk ensembles!!

Now is the time to use them girls and ladies because although it will remain "EVERGREEN" you should go out and showoff your version of the current trends as I through this post have.
Here is my take on my grandmother's preserved and treasured silk saree!!                                                          









I chose to pair my skirt with a plain off shoulder black top to highlight the skirt.

Jewellery of course had to be chunky and hep so I had no one but Pipabella to shop from as I just adore their collection when it comes to necklace statement finger ring from BelloFox.



For the hair I went for a simple twisted hair with middle parting and a low lying bun.THE golden raesham thread work clutch helped me to balance the look.



Do let me know if you all have something different way of styling the lehenga.

I hope you guys enjoyed the post!!
