Wear a Saree Contemporary style

‘A woman looks most elegant in a saree’

Yes! But whenever I think of a saree, I feel like people might mistake me for going for an Indian wedding! And even if I’m going for a wedding, I want to look sassy in a saree, not traditional like everyone else 😦

Occasions like a theme party, friend’s fun Cocktail/Sangeet ceremony, school/ college farewell, fashionable friend’s wedding or even an office party are times when you would love to dawn a saree but definitely not the traditional way!

Except Satya Paul who brought contemporary sarees into the Indian market I can barely think of places where I would find unconventional sarees. Also, do I really want to spend so much buying a saree?

Ladies just pull out your old printed sarees or your mothers silk, crepe & georgette sarees! Because The Style Chair shall show you How to wear the Saree contemporary style 😉

The best way to look unconventional in a saree is by teaming it up with unique crop tops! (especially before the crop top trend fades away)

Graphic print crop tops with a plain colored saree Or
A contrasting coloured crop top with a printed saree.
Quirky print, Polka doted/striped crop trop, lace crop tops are good choices to give the saree that modern twist.
If you like it jazzy then sequined or metallic crop top looks fabulous with a plain coloured saree.

For a day look I teamed my floral crop top with this ultra chic lace saree!

Accessories were all in tune accordingly 🙂

And on the eve of Republic day I wore this Indigo Ikat border saree with my striped crop top! (You’ve seen me wear this earlier in my post, It also kept me quite warm on a wintery night)

Doesn’t it look fab?

Accessories (from Aquamarine) were also kept far from traditional 😀 Specially loved this quirky colour block clutch bag from Pink Jalebi. What especially added that modern touch to my saree look was my top knot!
