We professional ladies have it tough. We attend office in plain salwar suits, looking formal and ready to talk business. It becomes particularly tough on days we have to attend an important event straight from work. But, there’s no need to look out-of-place there, and apologise for being a working gal! Instead, here are some ways to glam up a plain suit design.
Three major weapons to glam up a plain suit design:
Pay attention to the following three components, to change a plain formal suit to something that looks perfect in a glorious event!
1. Stole/Dupatta
Ditch the simple dupatta, and replace it with something gorgeous to add a glam factor to any plain salwar suit. Choose a silk dupatta or a pashmina stole, or go for something with heavy embroidery work. The options are many!
2. Jewellery
Carry a festive jewellery set in your office bag for the after-office event. Pick large jhumkas, and an ostentatious neckpiece that will take away all the attention from the simplicity of the suit to itself. You can even pick a kamarbandh!
3. Makeup
Makeup will help to freshen up your face, take away the tiredness, and add glamour and colour. Carry a face-wash, moisturizer, high-coverage foundation, face powder, one smoky eyes palette, and a lipstick, and you’re set!
Other accessories to transform a simple kameez:
A gorgeous stole, attractive ornaments and good makeup are the three key components in making even plain salwar kameez designs look appropriate for any festive event. However, you can also have fun with the following, as well, based on the environment of your work space.
a) Bottom-Wear
If you’re in a simple suit, especially a plain white salwar kameez, pair it with a fancy bottom-wear. Palazzo, dhoti pant, long skirt – pick anything, complying with the dress code in your office. Or, simply keep it in your bag, and change before leaving!
b) Shoes
Yet another accessory that depends on the attire acceptable in your work-place, shoes can change the look and feel of plain salwar suit designs. Glittery heels, fancy jutis, strappy slippers: wear it, or slip it into your bag – if it’s big enough!
c)Cape/Jacket
Capes are the newest trend in Indian wear; and so are jackets, with the length varying from below the bust all the way down to the knees or calf. There are various versions of these, with slits, nets, etc. and take little space in the bag!
d) Bag
Pick a fancy Indian-ethnic sling/tote/hand bag if you’re planning to carry accessories or your change, and take it to the event. If it’s possible to keep the work bag in the office or your car, a potli or clutch inside will be enough!
So, now you know how to up your formal-to-fab game and look amazing when you have to go to an occasion straight from work. No need to miss looking beautiful at events anymore!
