10 refreshing ways to style your Kurti this festive season


#1 Legging Love:

Refreshing? Not really but ofcourse kurtis and leggings are a match made in heaven ad not mentioning leggings here would be a sort of a crime. For the most comfortable and lazy styling pair your kurti with a legging in contrasting colour or even go matchy matchy and add a contrast stole or dupatta for a uber chic casual everyday look. This combination works well for college going girls and can also be worn to office.
If you want tight fitted leggings go for brands like Juniper or rangmunch and if want a more relaxed fit try chudidaar type leggings from Biba or Karigari. Personally I love all these legging brands for their awesome quality . I buy them from amazon or flipkart during sale at upto 50% off .


#2 Palazzo pants:



Post Bajirao Mastani palazzo pants in ethnic wear have come back big time. The relaxed fit of palazzos make it ideal for summers and they are best paired with straight cut kurtas. Go for contrast colours and pair long straight cut kurtas with palazzos for a contemporary ethnic look
Biba, aurelia and rain and rainbow have some cool collection of palazzos

#3 Silk dupatta:

Kurti for diwali? Not too festive but you can make it work by adding a rich silk dupatta in contrast colour. Gaurang shah has brought in kanjeevaram dupattas and they are hot in trend with brides to be. Pair a raw silk kurta with palazzos and contrast dupatta to look comfortably festive . You can reuse you moms old silk sarees to make a dupatta out of it.

#4 Koti or mini jacket (Vest)


Add an embellished sleeveless jacket to your plain kurti to jazz things up. This works best with anarakli type kurtis but you can try it with straight cut kurtas as well


#5 Denim love

Jeans and kurti are very popular with young girls and is best for formal occasions. with this styling you can easily leave the stole or dupatta home.

#6 Skirty edge

Pairing skirts with kurtis are new in thing and i have spotted many celebs and fashion bloggers do it. To get this pairing right always look for contrasting and a longer kurti will make more impact.

#7 Dhoti pants


The dhoti silhouette isnt my favourite but it has its share of fans. You can pair a short kurti with dhoti pants too for a layered look.


#8 With a belt


Belts in ethnic wear are very popular these days and you can add one to your kurti to define the waist add some detailing. This works best with anarkali kurtas but if you want a funky belted kurti look add a broad leather or metallic belt to a plain straight kurta.


#9 Patialas pop

Patialas have been paired with straight cut dresses for ages and they can easily be paired with kurtas too. Go for patialas with lots of pleats for a voluminous chic look.


#10 Like a Dress
