Types of saree – Its the natural instinct of human beings to hide their flaws and accentuate their best qualities or features. In this case, a skinny or thin girl would love to look fuller if she wears a saree. So, in order to fake the curves or create them you need to choose the right type of saree for skinny girls. Sarees made up of fabrics like cotton, organza, tissue and silk are great for slim women. These kind of fabrics wont stick to the body thus creating an illusion of curves.

However, sarees made up of fabrics like georgette, net and chiffon should be avoided if you want a fuller curvaceous look, since these fabrics will stick to the body.

Prints on saree – For a skinny girl, sarees with heavy embroidery or embellishment are the best.

If you are skinny and tall, wear sarees which have big attractive prints on it and motifs.

However, if you are short-heighted, go for sarees which have no borders or if it got borders, make sure the border is very thin. Sarees with stripes or small prints would look good on you. Big wide borders on sarees are a big NO for your body type.

Color of the saree – If you want to create the illusion of fuller size, go for bright vibrant colors. Blocks of colors on the saree will break the long body line at least visually thus making your body look fuller.

Blouse – Thin girls have slender toned arms as well as an envious midriff. Therefore, just flaunt your good features. Wear a blouse with puffed up sleeves to flaunt your arms. Go for low cut blouses or even corsets which will create the illusion of fuller silhouette. Also wear the saree a bit below the navel, to flaunt your midriff.

If you are wondering on how to wear culottes off the runway, in daily life, here are some ways you can work it out.

·         If you are going for work, then team up the culottes with a white buttoned shirt and for the footwear, choose a pair of pumps.

·         Remember, culottes work the best with high heel shoes. So you can wear the combination of two, whenever you feel you need to get an extra something to style up the look.

·         If you are in a mood to experiment, wear a medium fitted dress with culottes.

·         Since culottes are a bit of loose pants, it might give you an appearance of shorter legs making you look short. So, in order to manage this height issue, go monochromatic while wearing culottes, that will make you look taller and slimmer definitely.

During the monsoon, the rate of perspiration as well as humidity rises. And this often damages our jewellery. So, in this post i shall provide a few tips to pick the right jewellery for monsoon or rainy season.

1.    Opt for plastic jewelleries. Choose plastic funky jewelleries in bold vibrant colors. Avoid wearing metallic jewelleries during the humid monsoon season.

2. Getting over-accessorized wont make you look fashionable, usually. Choose statement jewellery pieces like a good bold neck piece, or a thick broad bangle or even long earrings. This will help you be comfortable and look stylish. Whatever you wear, the accessories should be light and you must be able to carry that well with ease and comfort. Comfort is very much important when it comes to accessorizing right during hot rainy season.

I    3. If you love long earrings, keep your neck bare, do not wear any necklace. However, if you wear a chunky necklace on the neck, you can wear small studs on your ears or ear cuffs.

4. Broad thick bangles will cover a lot of your hand, so you do not need to wear anything else on your hands, if you are wearing such a bangle. Multi-colored strappy watches or watches with big dials are also another way of accessorizing your hands in the monsoon stylishly.

5. Avoid any metallic jewellery or watches with metallic straps as they might get damaged during the rainy season, unless they are waterproof or water-resistant. Also any kind of trendy jewellery made up of wood, jute should not be worn during the monsoon.
