While the festive season is hovering above, the wedding season is just around the corner. What better time than the \u2018present\u2019 to go on a saree shopping spree or better yet, pick out some timeless pieces from your mother\u2019s closet? Nothing screams the festive season louder than donning the classic and traditional nine-yard silk sarees. They\u2019re graceful and elegant, and can pretty much light up any festive party or gathering.<\/span><\/p>\n

While this six-yard figure-flattering wonder fits beautifully into any occasion, we\u2019ve encountered our favourite B-town divas to get this beautiful ensemble completely wrong. Donning a silk saree may seem to be the easiest thing to wear in the world, but, even our favourite style aficionados get it completely wrong, sometime<\/span><\/p>\n

Beware! Do not Make These Mistakes<\/span><\/h2>\n

Wondering what are the sartorial blunders you need to stay far away from while getting all decked in the timeless piece of silk saree? Here\u2019s giving you a lowdown on the top five fashion blunders you stay clear of the next time you think about getting draped in a beautiful silk saree.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ladies, take notes!<\/span><\/p>\n

Blouse For A Toss<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A silk saree is known for lending grace and charm, and an ill-fitting blouse can take things down south in seconds. It\u2019s not just the saree that leaves everyone awe-struck but the entire set which brings elegance to the table. Sarees are getting an absolute modern upgrade. On the other hand, our style beacons experiment with our classic nine-yard, left, right, and centre. There\u2019s a plethora of blouse designs, fits, cuts, and so on from which to take inspiration. The only thing you need to ensure is that the blouse fits to perfection. Too tight or too loose can kill the look and shine of your beautiful saree.<\/p>\n

\"Blouse<\/p>\n

Shoe Game Gone Wrong<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Just as you can\u2019t step out in your bathroom slippers with your fancy twirl-worthy gown, stepping out in rubber slippers or ugly shoes under your beautifully draped saree is a major fashion faux pas. We saw Rhea Kapoor get the fashion police’s approval as she sported her favourite sneakers under her lehenga at Sonam\u2019s wedding festivities. You may want to give this \u201csporty-meets-Indian\u201d look a try as long as you ensure your shoes are nowhere close to dirty and unkempt. Better yet? Stick to shiny pumps, stilettos and flat tie-ups. It\u2019s about upping the fashion ante of your silk saree and not the other way around.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h3>\n

Clutch It Right<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We\u2019ve seen this blunder with our B-town A-listers over and again. If you\u2019re planning to tag a clutch along, ensure you get it right. You might as well leave it back in the car before you step out looking if you want. With the fashion market offering you about a billion, more like a trillion intricately beaded and sequin clutches, going wrong in this department is an absolute No, NO! Pick a handheld clutch, a potli bag, or any other that speaks as a traditional Indian pouch.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Bling Horror<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Too much bling on any attire can go completely wrong. It\u2019s all about striking the right balance. We\u2019ve seen some celebrities like Deepika Padukone or Sonakshi Sinha keeping the accessory quotient to a bare minimum, looking breathtaking and regal as ever. Don\u2019t go over the top, strike a right chord. If you plan to go heavy with the earrings, keep it low-key on the necklace part and vice versa. You don\u2019t want to step out looking like a decked-up Christmas tree, do you?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h3>\n

Draping Them Low<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We get it, you want to drape your sarees like our favourite Tinseltown beauties. Draping them too low like Kareena Kapoor might work brilliantly if the fabric is chiffon or georgette. But when you\u2019re donning a silk saree, these pleats never really work. You will end up ensuring your rich and luxe silk saree looks like plain ol\u2019 cotton. We\u2019re pretty sure that\u2019s not the thing you plan on doing, do you? After all, you did not burn a huge hole in your pocket on an expensive silk saree to look like cotton! And even if you still wanna do that make sure you\u2019re wearing the right panty style. Opt for low-waist panties for no embarrassing panty peeks.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Bra Straps<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You have got the saree, and you\u2019ve stitched the perfect blouse, now what? Firstly, what\u2019s the kind of blouse design you have gone ahead with? Backless? Deep Neck or Boat Neck? With a range of options, the one thing you need to get right is the right bra. Opt for strapless, transparent strap bras or better stick-ons, depending on the type of your blouse. The last thing you need is your bra straps showing and killing the grace of the entire saree.<\/p>\n

\"bra<\/p>\n

Saggy Breasts<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Unless you decide to wear stick-on, we\u2019d highly recommend you go for underwired bras<\/a> under your blouse. Bras these days come with thin underlying, ensuring your boobs are uplifted and don\u2019t look saggy. You girls need to look fuller and curvacious under your glam outfits. You wouldn\u2019t want your blouse to look full of creases or your girls to be all over the place but in the right.<\/p>\n
