Diwali is almost here and I am sure most women are hyperventilating trying to decide on an outfit for the festival. While I personally do not believe in buying new clothes anymore (why buy when you can borrow!) and the same is true for Diwali, I also make sure that if I do end up buying something, I make the most of it. Meaning every outfit that I now add to my closet should be versatile enough for atleast three different looks so that I can justify the spend.

Psst: Our iOS app is out. You can download it for your iPhones here!

One of my top picks for festivities this season is this indigo printed outfit with aari work hand embroidered in antique Kasab. It gives the whole look a traditional feel without going OTT. Just the way I like it! 🙂

And did I talk about the pallazzo pants! They are a mix of different fabrics which were crushed to give a bouncy effect. Apart from the colours, I just love the feel of the pants. Can’t wait to style them with a crop top and heavy jewelry for another festive look.

I have styled the outfit with my favourite danglers from Amrapali Jewels and a statement ring by Sweta Parikh. These pieces add elegance to the entire look without taking  attention away from the outfit.

The amazingly talented Sandhya Shah at Palanquine has created a unique line of clothing that perfectly blends India’s rich heritage and popular modern design. I for one can’t stop gushing about it! You can check out her entire collection on her social media platforms:
