Diya Mirza glows even when the lights are turned off, and to wear white with THAT glow seems just unfair. If you are lucky enough to have that glow, let it do all the talking. Minimalize the use of accessories by pairing up only kundan earrings or haathphool and some hot pink/forest green clutch.
This saree gives us the freedom to pair it up with statement blouses like halter neck, three-fourth sleeves or even cold shoulder. Add extra oomph with a diamond or gemstone necklace and a brown waist belt to make it contemporary.
This white embroidered kurta-sharara set is an ideal pick for any pre-wedding festivities. The heavy zari and zardozi work gives a subtle elegance and also making the cut for pre-wedding wear. Team it up with heavy stone accessories and bangles with jutties and go all out with the lips for a dash of colour. Keep the rest of the makeup subtle and hair wavy and breezy.
