A Hued Holi-Day-celebrate with kalyanjewllers

It is that time of the year again when our country comes alive in a splendorous array of colours, hues and shades - Holi. This festival is celebrated with much fanfare and frolic, bringing together people from all walks of life. Throwing coloured dyes and using water guns on one another, dancing and partying to your heart’s content, tasting delectable sweetmeats and savoury treats - Holi is truly a feast for all your senses. To add extra oomph to your celebrations, pair the right outfit with your favourite jewellery to make your festivities even more memorable.

Choosing Your Holi Lookbook

To make the coloured dyes pop, an all-white outfit is usually preferred for Holi. But the dyes need not be the only way to infuse vibrancy into your attire. Choose lightweight chaandbalis, jhumkas and long chains in bright gold that will make your outfit look all the more appealing. Stick to casual and breezy pieces that aren’t too heavy, since Holi celebrations always involve much dancing and playing fun games.

Here’s an outfit suggestion:

Wear a white Chikankari kurta with blue jeans or a flowy palazzo.
Choose statement earrings or a long and colourful necklace to stand out against the whites.
If you are good at layering jewellery, stacked bracelets or rings are the way to go.
Mix and match contrasting tints to achieve a classy, put-together look.

If danglers and chandeliers don’t capture your attention, then studs are an excellent choice. While studs encrusted with precious gemstones such as rubies and emeralds are tempting, it is wise to stay away from them for your Holi parties. These gemstones require tremendous amounts of effort for their care and upkeep. It would be advisable to keep these from harm’s way by avoiding all opportunities to get water or dyes on them. If none of the above jewellery styling techniques caught your fancy, a simple gold earring can do the trick for you.
