Navratri 2017: Here's how women can style it up this Durga Puja

Get ready girls! It is that time of the year when Goddess Durga comes down on earth and the festive fervour takes the entire nation in its grip. If North India celebrates the nine-day long Navratri with utmost devotion then the whole of West Bengal, Odisha, Assam, Tripura, Bihar, Jharkhand and adjoining states are soaked into the feeling of welcoming Maa Durga to their abode for five days.

Durga Puja festival is celebrated from the sixth to tenth day of the bright lunar fortnight (Shukla Paksha) in the Bikram Sambat calendar month of Ashwin, as per Hindu tradition. It is the festival of celebrating the victory of good over evil.

During Navratri and Durga Puja—everyone and especially the women folk is dressed in their best attires. Some are dressed as per the colour code dedicated to each Nav Durga avatar on a particular day while others simply wear new clothes. So, just as everyone is enjoying the festivity, we thought of suggesting some cool tips to style your ethnic attire this Navratri and Durga Pujo.

Check out ladies, what all can make your traditional look even more attractive!

Bright colours

Attention ladies, this is perhaps an unsaid rule while shopping for your Navratri or Durga Puja attire. You must buy clothes which are bright in colour—as it brings out the best in you while you enjoy the festivity.

Keep it traditional

Do not forget to opt for a traditional look during the festival time. For, any festival in India is celebrated with much gusto and what better than Navratri or Durga Pujo to don your desi hat. Keep the ghagra-cholis for your Garba-Dandiya Nights and ditch your Western outfits for a few day, girls!

Make-up ready

It is always good to be styled once in a while. So, to completely look in sync with the bright, colourful festival, try applying some light make-up while you dress up, as it will give you that edge over others.

Funky jewellery

Don't forget to style your outfit without any jewels embellished on it. So, get your hands on some cool funky jewellery and pair it with your outfit. Be it a choker, oxidized silver or black metal earrings—anything which you like.

Lovely Dupattas

If you are wearing a salwar-kameez or long kurta-palazzo pants, team it up with colourful dupattas which can make you stand out from the rest. You can even wear a plain salwar-suit and don a bright contrast dupatta with beautiful mojris.

Lastly, while you girls get busy in getting ready—DO NOT forget to fold your hands, and pray to the mother goddess—for she listens to all those who believe and embrace her straight from the heart.

Jai Maa!
