There are two sides to winter in regards to fashion. One where you layer up on chic outerwear and the other is a confused state of dressing when it comes to Indian wear. Unless you wish to brave the cold in scantily-clad desi outfits, like us, you are giving these beautiful pieces a miss.
And ain’t that a shame though? In our quest to find solutions to this brazen weather, we spotted Karishma Kapoor, which struck us with an idea. Stick to the basic outfit but desi it up somehow! Lost in translation? Check out the fashionable ‘desi up’ her flared dress with a pair of matching ethnic dupatta and jhumkis!
Voila, a fresh style hack anyone can use! Read on to find out how our fashionable Plixxo bloggers have chosen to add ethnic touches to their winter wardrobes, below!
