The Bling fling




For most of us it’s a love-hate relationship with bling during the rest of the year but come diwali and it’s complete surrender. Sequinned or gilded, shimmery or mirror worked, nothing is too over the top, nothing is excessive during this season. The one that begins with diwali and ends with new year, with weddings and several other occasions that demand decking up thrown in between. Metallics, however, is a constantly recurring trend so here are three ways to innovate with your bling as you put the fireworks to shame

Fire and ice
Gold and silver are the festival season’s neutrals. It was somewhere around this time last year that one of fashion’s golden rules was broken and the two show stopping hues were worn together.

Grubby gold
Silver, bronze and copper too. Any of the metals with a dull (almost grimy) finish makes for an interesting twist.


Brocade best
Bling does not necessarily have to be jewellery. Brocade is big this fall. Make the most of it.
