5 Simple Tips That Can Make Online Saree Shopping Easy and Fun

Guest Post

Going Saree Shopping? Wait a minute. Have you decided on the type of saree you would want to pick? If yes, it is within your budget? And above all, where are you planning to buy it from? Answer all of these questions and you still have a few more at the back of your mind.

Online Saree shopping can make things a lot easier. With an extensive range of Sarees in store, you are most likely to end up with one that you have been looking for. Online stores are also known to offer heavy discounts throughout the year.

However, if you have never shopped online before, things might seem a bit tough. Here are 5 simple tips that can make online Saree Shopping Easy and Fun.

5 Simple Tips That Can Make Online Saree Shopping Easy and Fun

Compare them all
Go to Google and simply type in, “Best Online Saree Store”. You will be left with innumerable options to choose from. A slight comparison can help you pick the right one. This is when online testimonials can largely supplement your research.

Browse till you get it
Once you have chosen an online store, it’s time to browse through the collection. It may take a few minutes, or may be an hour if there’s something too precise you are looking for. But, that’s ok. After all, you would not like to pick something that’s not on your list, would you?

Discounts make you happy
Find out if the Saree you have chosen is eligible for a discount. Some online Saree stores let you apply a specific discount coupon code to every purchase you make. Interestingly, a few discounts are capable of saving you up to 40% on your total purchase value, which is truly amazing. While checking out, you will be prompted to use coupon codes, in case you have any. If you do, simply enter them in the space provided, and the discount will be applied to the final cost.

Use your credit card, why not?
Those not fully aware of the online transaction mechanism are of the opinion that online payments are risky. Well, not so. Online stores have highly secured systems in place ensuring complete security of every transaction made over the network.

Don’t worry, get it replaced
If for some reason you are not quite satisfied with the delivered product, you can always apply for a refund. However, it is crucial that you do it within the refund period set by the store.
Online stores nowadays offer wide range of exclusive and designer sarees from leading fashion designers. Hence you have a plethora of collection to choose from. So, when you can shop online sitting right in your couch comfortably and at the same time surf various sites for your desired saree, why to drive miles and hunt for stores outside? However, you also save a huge amount of time and of course a lot more extra bucks. Indeed online Saree shopping was never so easy and fun.

OOTD: Black Lace Maxi Dress

OOTD: Black Lace Maxi Dress

Hey guys,

So I had ordered for a beautiful beige lace maxi dress with a deep V back for my DJ function which is on 4th Dec but it has still not arrived :/

Hence,my 2nd option is this pretty black lace dress. This dress is perfect for a party, including a formal party, or a late night event, etc. Its formal and pretty at the same time.

The length needs some altering I believe, would check.

I paired it with my favourite Colorbar Darkened Summer Lipstick in Wild Mauve and gold dangling earrings with hair on one side. I intend to go for side swept curls for the function.

I don’t usually like cap sleeves coz it makes the arms look fatter which is also my problem area.

A gold cuff in one hand and black gold studded gladiator heels to finish the look. I might go for my Dune London shoes, still thinking. I plan to change into my red polka dots Wills Lifestyle knee length dress (which I had shared on my Instagram and twitter) later while dancing 😀

Dress: StalkBuyLove
Earrings: The Trunk Label
Shoes: AmiClubWear

On Lips: Colorbar Wild Mauve

OOTD: Matching Separates

OOTD: Matching Separates

Hey guys,

I am back with an OOTD. This time with matching separates. I have worn crop top before HERE and HERE. But never a matching separates pair.

This time its a crop top and a skirt in floral mint. Loved the pink and white roses print on the pale green.Since the top has a zip upto the top,I skipped a necklace. Only accessorized it with a gold hollow design cuff and gold midi rings. And my new favourite studded tan ankle strap block heels.

 

I think a size bigger would have been more comfortable but it was out of stock and I felt like trying this. Though it fits well, I think I need to loose a bit more for this :p

Top,Skirt: StalkBuyLove
Shoes: Amiclubwear
Cuff,Midi Rings: Romwe

On Lips: Faces Canada Ultime Pro Lip Creme Fuchsia Sparkler

I hope you liked the simple,no fuss look. Do let me know in the comments below.

Wedding Gowns and Bridesmaid Dresses

Wedding Gowns and Bridesmaid Dresses

There are a lot of options when it comes to the white wedding gowns and bridesmaid dresses or prom dresses and more online websites too. One get confused as to which is the best site and where to buy from.

You get amazing evening dresses on Asos. And there are few others I like Oasap, Romwe, Sheinside, etc.

But when its an exclusive only wedding gowns website, you know you would get the best designs, fabrics and customization done. From lace to silk to taffeta. Backless lace to the fluffy mesh to the long trains. The gorgeous colors like royal blue, champagne, deep purple, baby pink to 60 more options.

One such website is WeddingShe. Beautiful designs, I love so many of them! A big wishlist on my account :p They have beautiful ‘Mother of the Bride’ dresses too and some not so heavy ones for the pre wedding functions too.

About WeddingShe: It is your reliable online purchasing channel.

Numerous selections together with attractive pages of imports give you an enjoyable on-line shopping experience. You are definitely not willing to leave.

The best thing is the prices, quite affordable and cheap. Also the short cocktail/prom dresses are super gorgeous. Check out more discount prom dresses here http://www.weddingshe.com/list/Evening-Dresses-14354/ 

 

I loved their entire collection. Definitely recommend checking out WeddingShe. They also have shoes,jackets,veils,jewellery,etc

Which sites are your favourite for wedding gowns/prom dresses,etc ?

OOTD: Orange Bag, Black Studded Pumps

OOTD: Orange Bag, Black Studded Pumps

Hey everyone,

This time around I planned my OOTD keeping my new orange bag and my favourite black studded pumps in focus. I have hardly accessorized.

The top has dull gold thread and pearl detailing on the neck, so I skipped a neck piece and went for simple pearl Aldo studs.

I only wore a Daniel Wellington watch, so the full focus is on my bright bright orange bag and the lovely shoes.

 

This crocodile print bag is exactly the same as the one I have in black and you guys have seen in most of my OOTD’s and which I absolutely love. (I had shared it HERE as a part of my wishlist.)

And the new Dune London black studded pumps are also my latest love. (Just look at them! I can adore them forever) Dune London has a store in Palladium in Mumbai for those who are interested.

I also added this beige light drawstring trench, which is perfect for fall/winter and places like Mumbai where it is not too cold.

Loving my skin these days! I have absolutely no makeup/base on the face except my Ruby Woo 😀

Outfit Details:

Bag: HERE
Denims: Forever 21
Shoes: Dune London

Mumbai Bride Diaries: Goa,Bachelorette Pics,OOTD

Mumbai Bride Diaries: Goa,Bachelorette Pics,OOTD

Hey guys,

Some of you who follow me on facebook, twitter or Instagram, must have seen few of my Goa pics. I did not upload all, coz I wanted to post them on the blog 😀 So, last month, I am and my friends went to Goa for the weekend. We had guys too, but then 3 of my girlfriends are out of India,so it was just me and two other friends..so we did not mind guys. The more the merrier.

Two days were a little hectic as both days,Friday and Sunday, we hardly slept for half an hour or so as it was early morning 5 am flight. We stayed at Santana Beach Resort in Candolim, Goa which is near to Kingfisher Villa. A very nice place and spacious, clean rooms with good breakfast options. And pretty economical too. Also has a private beach area.I would highly recommend this place, its all connecting to all the beaches. We hired a Mahindra Thar and were roaming around in a Thar! Super experience 😀

Since it was still raining then, water sports were shut. We enjoyed food,clubbing,etc though. On Saturday, we went to LPK- Waterfront and on Sunday, Mambo’s. (The weirdest and funniest crowd I have ever seen in a pub, we could’nt control laughing :D)

My outfit on Day 1..

I was made to the weirdest and most embarrassing tasks like dancing on road, randomly getting up and dancing in a restaurant, take a picture with strangers, take a guy’s autograph and what not.(Ahem!) There was a whole list, of which I successfully completed maximum 😀 I also got :ahem ahem: gifts from my girlfriends.

I was also made to wear a sash and floral tiara one whole day 😀 The sash of ‘Bride To Be’ from the time we landed at Goa.

Of course we had the desserts at Brittos all the time! :yumm: I did not like the vegetarian food at Brittos :/ Cafe Sussegado Souza is one place which I recommend for amazing cocktails,mocktails and yumm food. Infantaria for pastas and pizzas.

BlueBerry Cheese Cake and Chocolate Alpine Mousse at Brittos

We went to Aguda Fort just to while away some time in between.

OOTD: Little White Dress, Polka Dots Blazer

OOTD: Little White Dress, Polka Dots Blazer

Hey everyone,

After Diwali and New Year and all the Indian wear, I am back with an OOTD again. I have so many Little Black Dresses (LBD’s) but a Little White Dress is also crucial in your wardrobe.

I went for a white bodycon Little White Dress (LWD) this time. It fits like a glove and of course I had to wear my shapewear underneath it (Sigh! Girl’s problems) But it looks quite elegant and chic with the gold chain detailing on the shoulders.

I skipped a statement necklace since it had the chain detailing and went for statement gold earrings instead. And finished it with gold and stone bracelet and rings from Silvette. I am absolutely loving them, these days <3

Finally my black suede block heels with gold ankle strap.

I also layered it with a polka dots denim blazer. This blazer is so multi-use,would work with many of my outfits from denims to dresses. Its warm, thick, fits perfectly, snugs correctly and looks amazing. What else would one want from a blazer ?! 😀 I love it!
