What to wear for NYFW

Hi There,

For the first time, I missed my 1st Show this season in NYFW as the weather has been really bad on the East Coast. Torrential downpours and power cuts had happened, which was enough reason to create gridlocks. I usually stay in New York during NYFW, but this season I had 3 shows on the same day and I decided not to stay in the city but to return the same day to cope with my kid's busy schedules. Our home to NYC is a 2-hour drive and today it took 4 hours, so I couldn't attend my 1st show as most shows run on time.

However, I wanted to share what I wore for the show. How I decide what to wear for the show. Creating an ideal look to attend such a show takes a lot of thought and ideas. Looking good is just one criteria, but the look should be such that it not only creates an impact but at the same time it should align with your personal style. A statement look is always good for Big 4, and uncomfortableness is the last thing we opt for. In addition, we have to keep it to the show's theme. If it is formal, you need to blend with it; if it is streetwear, you must take care accordingly. Right and comfortable footwear is a must for running from one show to another; sitting and walking sometimes, your footwear should be relaxed.

Well, I wear a pastel mint green pantsuit for accessories instead of a very obvious choice of black or silver, I opt for tan accessories for my shoes and bag, and dual-tone studs and a clear black frame glass rounded up the look. I kept my hairstyle minimal, and my makeup minimal, but for lips maroon brownish bold lips. Let me know how you like it.

Jurun...an assamese beautiful pre-wedding ceremony

Indian weddings encompass many beautiful ceremonies and traditions. In Assamese culture, Jurun is a pre-wedding ceremony. It usually occurs a day or two before the wedding day, sometimes even on the same day of the wedding. 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...
