5. Jewellery- No Indian attire is complete without some jewellery. While selecting the jewellery keep in mind the outfit that you are going to wear. The jewellery must complement the outfit. If you are wearing something that has a lot of embellishments and embroidery on it then avoid wearing very heavy jewellery as it will look a bit too much. Go for a statement jewellery piece such as a chunky necklace or earrings etc.

6. Go as per the theme- If you are going to a theme party then it is better to prepare your ensemble keeping that theme in mind. If the party is more about dancing drinking and having a fun time, then fusion outfits are perfect. But if it is more about the rituals, Pooja, etc. then it is better to wear something which is more traditional like a saree or an akarkali. Avoid wearing light colours as would get really difficult to get rid of the stains if you accidentally spill something on yourself.
