Here is a list of key pieces to jazz up any outfit.
- Statement Jewelry Piece
- Pop of a Color
- Jeans – Dress up Your Jeans
- Chunni/Dupatta or Scarf
- Kurti/Tunic
Tips to get this look right.
1. Kurti/Tunic:
- Color, pattern, sparkle, texture – all these elements together can make one item a focal point of an outfit.
- Always give first preference to a fit which is flattering on your figure.
- Jewel tones look really great on medium skin tones. Fuchsia pink, turquoise blue, garnet, emerald green.
Chunni/Dupatta:
Look for contrasting or from same color family chunni/dupatta for your kurti and wrap it like shawl or scarf and that adds a character to your outfit. A chunni with border looks great.
Cool Tip: Save your chunni’s/dupatta from old salwar kameej and re-cycle them with jeans to create a new outfit.
Jeans:
Create balance: For a chic silhouette, pair a loose silky fabric tunic with skinny jeans or a slim fit pants and it will balance the billowy piece on top.
