Truth be told, I'm not a fan on Indian clothes.
I'd much rather sit around in my pajamas/ shorts and a baggy tee and have a chill day but SOMETIMES being #Indian means you need to play the #GoodLittleIndianGirl.
Sarees, Kurtis, Lehengas Ghagras, Patiyalas... (and I'm running out of names so I'm going to stop) Oh! wait, anarkalis (See, I know Indian things) are all very fancy and also not.
Again, the only rule is DON'T OVERDRESS YOURSELF.
Don't show up at a temple in a shiny SHINY Anarkali that you SHOULD be wearing to a wedding.
Don't show up at a restaurant in a saree unless you want to get certain strange looks.
Don't show up at a wedding on the beach in a long flow-y Indian saree and heels (you'll only fall flat on your face)
Oh, and also, KEEP THE JEWELLERY TO A MINIMUM. Nobody wants to see your entire collection of Gold at one time.
One last thing, don't do TOO MUCH. If a saree is pink AND green AND blue AND yellow AND red, IT IS NOT A NICE THING TO WEAR. Run FAR away.
For the sake of it, here's the picture of me in a saree. With a friend. Be simple. Dress the occasion. (even if we are standing in a bathroom, I promise there was a RAGING party outside) (JK)
