Of recycling old clothes

Up your style quotient this season

What can I do with the dozens of suits and salwars that my late aunt has left behind for me? I only wear sarees.

You could recycle or repurpose these suits and salwars by using them as home decor items. These could work as wall hangings or even as photo borders. You could even make some quirky pillow covers out of them or turn them into pretty potli bags.

Slay the cold shoulder

Are cold shoulders still in? How can they be styled to a formal affair?

—Khushi, Mumbai

Cold shoulder tops are definitely still in, you could wear it with a pair of fit and flare denims to a formal affair or could also wear a cold shoulder dress with block heels and a baguette bag.
