Indian Wedding Guest: Sangeet +Cocktail Outfit

I think I am going to call these posts the ‘Indian Wedding Guest Series’ just because all the outfits are centred around what a guest (read: me) would wear or has already worn to an Indian wedding.

Now that that’s out of the way, let’s get started with this post. In February we attended a couple of weddings, and I know that February was a long time ago, but hey, February weather is pretty similar to October/November weather and so the outfit/s I wore might serve as fashion inspiration for the coming Autumn weddings (if that makes sense).

So, coming back to the outfit, in this post I’ll take you through my look for a friend’s Sangeet + Cocktail (whose wedding we attended in Feb). I chose a hot pink Anarkali that had been sitting pretty in my closet since quite some time, but somehow I hadn’t been able to do justice to it.  So I chose to wear it for our friend’s Sangeet/Cocktail. Now since the venue was indoors, the sleeveless Anarkali in breezy chiffon fabric was the perfect choice. And the fact that although the silhouette was rather traditional, the modern neckline, and sequined embroidery added a perfect touch of glam (much needed for the cocktail-ish setting) to the outfit.  For accessories, I just wore huge pearl earrings, and my rosegold watch (Tommy Hilfiger). For footwear, I wore my faux snake-sin heels from Marks & Spencer and carried a grungy black clutch from Zara.

I love reading your comments so do drop in a line or two.
