I can understand how ladies keep wonder opening their wardrobe in the morning that what should they wear today? right? Duh, it’s my concern too, I clear a huge mess every morning just to wear something good, but end up wearing something tacky. Well, We have all gone through the same melodrama, thinking we don’t have enough outfits or that the ones we have are not workwear appropriate.
A common misconception is that ethnic Indian wear is for festivities only. However, when paired in the right manner, a kurti with leggings can be extremely comfortable for long work hours, in turn translating to a better workday. When it comes to workwear, the key thing to keep in mind is to hold comfort and understated elegance paramount.
Questioning how to achieve it all like the boss woman that you are? Let’s see
Ditch the Dupatta, and wear it like a boss
An easy styling hack that speaks of modernity and contemporary times is to lose the dupatta and opt for Kurti sets that look smart and well put-together. With plenty of options in breezy silhouettes as well as well-fitted pieces like this printed blue kurta, there is no longer a need to constantly adjust the dupatta. You could also spruce things up with a cropped cotton jacket or a stole that keeps things vibrant at the office without taking anything away from your work.
Pick the Cloth with Utmost Care
The fabric of your ensemble plays a huge role in how comfortable you feel, especially if you plan on sitting at the desk for a couple of hours straight. Invest in quality materials that will serve longer hours without creasing or getting you to feel sweaty or itchy. Pay attention to what you have drawn up for the day. A clean Kurti in a stiff fabric will work wonders for that big meeting while a flowy one can have you moving about comfortably when there are a lot of errands on your agenda.
Play Up Your Prints
One of the easiest ways to seamlessly carry the fusion look is to pick out a typically western garment, in a beautiful Indian print. I’m talking Bandhini crop tops, and Kalamkari midi dresses. You can also choose to pair solid colored pants, with a top featuring an ethnic print, or vice versa, or combine two complementary prints in your ethnic kurta and western bottom duo. Geometric prints with an Indian touch are a great idea as well. So getting clever with your prints while picking a fusion look, is always advisable.
Sometimes contrast Can Be The Key
Just like in the case of a host of fashion trends, putting contrasting colors together in an Indo-Western look will make you stand out almost instantly. Two contrasting shades in your ethnic top and western bottom choices can look very elegant when done right. You don’t have to limit yourself to contrasting colors only in the case of your garments. You can also choose to incorporate it in your accessory picks, like a colorful beaded choker paired with an all-white outfit.
Add a Lil sass to your Kurti look, with some pinch of makeup and accessory.
