Upgrade Your Kurti Pajama Look with Interesting Additions

Source in.pinterest.com

A lot of people used to categorize kurti pajama or salwar kameezes under ‘boring clothes’ or ‘clothes for the old fashioned’. But kurti pajamas don’t have to be boring or sombre. Have fun with your kurti pajama look like you would with any other outfit. To upgrade your kurti pajama look you need a few interesting accessories and a bit of imagination and style. A solid coloured kurti pajama set can be brought to life with the help of bright dupattas and stoles. We recommend stocking up on bright bandhni, leheriya and phulkari dupattas. These can brighten up a plain outfit in an instant. Buy some interesting jackets as well. Look for mirror accents, quilting work and embroidery. You could even pair a good old denim jacket with your kurti pajama for a cool effortless vibe. We recommend this particularly to youngsters and college students. Silver oxidised and costume jewellery can also bring together the whole kurti pajama look. Buy some statement earrings, jhumkis, hoops etc. Invest in some great neck pieces, bangles, bracelets, rings, anklets etc. The bohemian, indo –western look never goes out of style. So learn to mix and match western and Indian elements. Last but not the least, invest in some good footwear. Buy strappy sandals, flat chappals, jootis etc, to pair with your kurti and pajama.
