Budget shopping: Styled right for just Rs 100

Here’s a pocket-friendly style guide for college girls

Girls, just a few weeks are left for colleges to reopen and you must be worrying about what you’re going to wear during this busy time.

You can dress up well for your college without spending a lot of money. (Riya Wadhwa)

Splurging on accessories does not make sense when you are going to reuse and use the stuff for a whole year. Interestingly, Delhi being what it is, the markets here have hundreds of options in visually-appealing neck pieces, trendy watches, colourful hair bands, bracelets, fancy bags, backpacks and comfortable footwear... and that too for just Rs 100.

So start your hunt in the Sarojini Nagar market, Janpath, Lajpat Nagar and Kamla Nagar for beautiful and colourful accessories to be matched with your daily college wear.

While a pair of trendy sandals or chappals will cost you anything close to Rs 100 with a wide range of colours and designs to choose from, a small backpack for a light day in college (top left) can be bought for the same price from Sarojini Nagar.

Wrist watches (top right) are a must have when it comes to accessories. In case you are not brand conscious, you can pick up a trendy watch as long as you find them presentable and ­attractive.

Neck pieces are a rage among college students. You can go for something which is colourful, chic, inexpensive and yet stylish such as the one seen here (right). So sharpen your bargaining skills and go on a shopping spree.
