Indian festive look #1



In the world of flashy, machine-made products, handmade items have their own unique beauty. The beauty that lies in the imperfections makes it unique and one of a kind. Wearing something handmade always brings a sense of sublime beauty to me. That prompted me to share the first look of this year's Indian festive season. A handmade tunic and skirt in navy blue shades were recently worn for an Indian festive celebration. I am into neutral these days. A navy blue kurta (tunic) and ghagra (long a-line skirt), and added an off-white dupatta. The motive behind creating this look is to achieve an understated and classic appearance. I chose a multi-strand pearl necklace to add a bit of extra flair, and my hair and makeup are kept natural. By the way, I was wearing L'Oréal X Sabyasachi. Hope you like this look.

My favorite pieces of Assamese Traditional jewelry

My grandmother's thuria, age-old and heirloom jewelry, of course, not part-able         A piece of jewelry echoes a region's rich heritage, aesthetics and sensibilities and Assamese jewelry does not differ from that. A piece of jewelry not just enhances the wearer's beauty but identity as well.       A land of flamboyant rivers engulfed in exotic flora and fauna, birds, musical instruments Assamese jewelry is highly inspired by that. Sharing a few assamese pieces of jewelry from my personal collection.       An Assamese bride's dress up is incomplete without Assamese jewelry. Traditionally Assamese jewelry is purely handmade.

A tradition where the groom’s family, especially women, visit the bride's family to present the wedding trousseau (Mekhela chadar), jewelry, some makeup, and accessories. In my belief, a tradition that welcomes the bride to her new family with gifts, love, and blessings.  On the day of Jurun, Aam Dali godha (A stringed mango leaf) is a tradition and is tied over the door. It is believed that it will ward off all bad energy and bring good luck to the newlyweds. Usually, jurun happens in the morning or before noon. The goom does not accompany the group. Before going to the bride's home, the groom and his family get blessings from the people who gather for the jurun. Another tradition associated with Jurun is filling two small bell metal vases (called l...
