Avoid too much bling: When you drape a saree you need to let the saree do all the talking. So opt for a neckpiece that compliments your saree or just go for earrings instead. But don't wear too much bling or else you'll end up looking really crass when you want to go for class.
02/5Not focusing on the pallu
The pallu is what makes or breaks the look of a saree so obviously, it needs to be the star of your show. If it has a lot of intricate detailing leave it open. And if you want to flaunt those curves of yours then tie the pallu up. Whatever you choose to do make sure your pallu looks neat and is at the right length.
03/5Choosing the wrong petticoat
Now, the petticoat of your saree needs to be exactly the same colour as your saree. You cannot just wing it or else it will end up in disaster. Make sure that the length of your petticoat is correct and so is the material because the fall of your saree depends on it. Also if you're on the heavier side avoid flared petticoats.
04/5Wearing a front open blouse with a transparent saree
No! Do NOT do this! It will really look disastrous because then uneven spaces can show out or the hooks in the front will be seen through. So for transparent sarees always opt for blouses which have hooks at the back or zips on the sides. Trust us; it'll help accentuate your look by a lot.
05/5Matching everything
If you match everything you'll end up looking like a bedsheet. You can't have a yellow blouse, yellow saree, yellow sandals, yellow jewellery and yellow everything. Opt for something to contrast it with. Spice it up a bit, add some funky jewellery to the look and see how much it improves your overall look.
