Celebrities looking Graceful in Gray sarees

Sarees are designed to allow one to show off their ethnicity anywhere they want be it official appearances or casual events like lunches, banquets, and festivities. They are elegant, ageless, and always fashionable.

Sarees are the best way to impress your inner goddess, and the brilliant hues that spill from you make the entire world look as beautiful as you are. One such color that is constantly coming back into trend is Gray-colored sarees. There were several occasions when the stylists and celebrities tried to get their hands on this graceful hue. Few such appearances which turned everyone’s heads around are as follows:

The above-displayed post is of Madhuri Dixit who absolutely looks stunning in a gray-colored sequin saree. Her saree has really intricate detailings all over giving a mesh effect. She has kept her look monotone by pairing it up with the same hued sequined blouse and accessorizing that up with gray-colored jewelry as she returns back to her set. She gives inspiration on how to style a gray saree if you are deciding to make a major appearance.

In the above post by Sonakshi Sinha, she is wearing a gray and golden-hued saree. She is pulling off a chic look by leaving her straight locks open and pairing just a choker necklace and a chunky ring. To color block the monotonous appearance she has used golden-green jewelry. She has styled it distinctively by wrapping the saree around and wearing wide-legged golden pants.  

If there is one actress in the industry who can ace the look of a graceful yet not tacky look it would be none other than Vidya Balan. In the above post, she wore a gray-colored silk saree that has golden borders and golden-infused patterns all over. To balance the pattern she paired it up with a simple gray blouse and kept a minimalistic look by just accessorizing it with white-dominated flower-shaped earrings and a chunky gold ring. 

 

If you are confused as to how to get a trendy and sleek look then Neha Shetty’s above post can become our closet’s inspiration. She has styled a gray-colored net saree paired along with a sequin spaghetti blouse. She styled a statement earring to break off the plainness of her appearance. Her over-the-top look is perfect for any party occasion. If you are gravitated toward achieving an appealing yet enthusiastic look then this look will certainly work for you.  

Pooja Hegde’s post above exudes a bright and cheery feeling in and of itself as she styles a gray, brown, and earthy green satin saree. The saree has striped green patterns and brown borders and she pairs the brown and gray colored blouse with the same horizontal strips. She completes her ethnic look by wrapping her hairdo in a Gajra and wearing a chunky oxidized gold earring and ring. She is giving major goals on how to effortlessly style a gray saree for an ethnic look. 

Gray has become the new black for fashion if styled meticulously. Wearing sarees to work on various and special occasions is the newest vogue. With the help of a gray saree, you may be creative and enhance your appearance while also reflecting your personality and fashion preferences.

Unquenchable love for handlooms – Sudha’s Journals

There are several situations in which a kid is inspired by their surroundings and wants to imitate what piques their attention; such was the case with me, but little did I realize that the love I was about to feel for this clothing would last a lifetime and would only become stronger with time.
When I was a youngster, I used to enjoy seeing my mother, grandmothers, and other elders drape a saree. I used to dress up in a towel as a saree and pretend to be a teacher when I was little. I initially wore a Kanjeevaram saree at a function when I was 13 years old. I used to think of myself as the queen of my domain. My love for 6-yards began when I was six years old. Even though I’m 45 years old, I still like sarees. I’ve never felt self-conscious about wearing a saree. The love becomes stronger with each passing day. The collection I’m creating I would like to pass to my little angel. Although I will not force her to like it, I am interested in seeing it through the eyes of an adult and seeing whether she feels the same way I do.

Even though I’m doing domestic chores, business work, traveling, or Yoga, I enjoy draping a saree. I’m now riding my bike while wearing a saree. When a woman wears a saree, she is inundated with queries and comments such as “You look lovely.” “Are you able to put on a saree?” “How long did it take you to drape this saree?” and so on. As a result, sarees are excellent conversation starters. So, if you want to strengthen your bonds with like-minded people, nothing beats a saree. Likewise, I learned a lot from my Saree Sakhis (friends).

I learned about handlooms and other types of sarees from my interactions with like-minded people who shared my enthusiasm for sarees, and it quickly became my ambition to have my own collection. Because they each have their own niche, I can’t tell them apart. When I initially joined Instagram, I learned about different weaves and crafts. In my area, I used to only see georgette, chiffon, Crape, Kanjivaram, and Bengali cotton sarees.

When I witness weavers’ work, I am filled with adoration and reverence. When you purchase a handloom saree, you are assisting a small group of weavers who are fighting to keep their craft alive in the face of the industry loom and people’s aversion to tradition. I’m not sure how to convey it to them, so as a token of gratitude I purchase their weavings and handicrafts. A handloom saree is made entirely by hand. It’s distinct because of the personal touch. Of course, they require a little more attention than an industrial loom, but after you’ve followed the cleaning and maintenance instructions to the letter, you’ll have it for years to come. As a result, it is a prudent investment that will pay off in the long run.
My enthusiasm for this has only risen with time, and I want to disseminate it as much as possible.
I want everyone to see how beautiful these handloom sarees are.
