LET’S BLING IT ON, LADIES
Add some life to your festivities with a big dash of sparkle ‘n’ shine. Here are five ways to ace the celebrations, celeb style
BALANCE IT OUT
A full-embellished gown with feather detailing, like this Falguni and Shane Peacock number on actor Anushka Sharma, is a show stealer. The look works because of the balanced makeup. So, if you are heading out for a cocktail do, and bling is your bae, go for pale lips and neatly parted hair to ace the eve.
THE SHORT-CUT
It was hard to miss upcoming actor Jhanvi Kapoor’s custom-made Manish Malhotra dress that was gilded-perfect for glamour. If you love to keep it cute (and short!), this is a smart pick for a pre-Diwali party, especially if you want to ditch the staple ethnic route.
SHEER PLAY WITH GLEAM
If you don’t want to go for a totally blinged-out look, the embellished sleeves (and cut-out waist) is a good idea. Take cue from this Sonaakshi Raaj number on actor Jacqueline Fernandez for a new-age sangeet do.
LAYER IT UP
Want to spruce up a casual shirt dress? Then, layering is the way to go. Actor Shraddha Kapoor’s Manish Malhotra dress is a lesson for those who love separates. From your BFF’s bachelorette to any other festive do — experiment by layering up your glitter.
FRINGE FORWARD
Take cue from fashion do-regular Natasha Poonawala’s Homme Van Lab gown. With the wedding season upon us, this look, with on-trend fringes, will be perfect for a high-on-glam engagement party. Keep the jewellery minimal and go for a dewy, fresh-faced look.
