Mesmerized by its aesthetics, I bought a dust pink chiffon saree with crimson flowers printed all over it. It looked nothing but graceful and I just fell in love with it, the moment I saw it. I picked it up without having any second thoughts. I showed it to all my friends and they too find it delightful.

Wedding function
When I told my friends that I was going to wear my simple chiffon saree, their response was not so positive. They advised that it might not go with the occasion and I would look too plain and simple. I was disheartened but being an adamant girl, I just turned a deaf ear to all those suggestions. I enlist my confidence to do justice to the beauty of “my printed chiffon saree”. Moving on to my look, I paired my saree with a maroon sleeveless blouse along with a delicate pearl necklace and shimmery cluster ear studs. Basically, I kept my look very simple and added a little oomph with dark lips and soft curls. The end result came out to be prettier than I thought.

The soft, translucent fabric hugged my body perfectly. I was a lot more confident when I saw myself in the mirror. This look was a breath of fresh air and made me stand out among the banarasi and embroidered sarees. It made all the heads turn and I garnered countless compliments for my refreshing look.
