About her look

Kareena Kapoor wore a salwar suit in a rich, pink colour. Draping a matching dupatta over, her salwar-kurta ensemble had a comfortable fitting. No traditional look is truly complete without juttis, so she paired one with her traditional outfit. Her salwar suit was simple and did not sport any bold embellishments or prints, highlighting that true elegance lies in minimalism.

However, despite the muted outfit, the accessories were bold. The actor wore long, dangling earrings. She carried a tote bag and sunglasses, a touch of contemporary charm to her traditional outfit. Keeping her hair loose and donning a red bindi, she aced the traditional look. It can be your next inspiration for festive wear.

Styling lesson

There’s an essential styling lesson in her traditional ensemble. When your outfit is demure and simple, let the accessories do all the talking. Kareena did not shy away from playing with accessories, from the statement tote bag and earrings to fashionable juttis. And similarly, it can also be implied, that when the outfit is loud, tone down your accessories and let the dress take the spotlight. By following this simple styling lesson, you can master your ensembles by effortlessly knowing how to complement your accessories with your outfit.

Festive season glam doesn't dim if you opt for simple prints or go for absolute minimalism. No outfit is less or more glam, it all depends on how you carry it. So don’t get intimidated by the plain, simple styles; it’s like a blank canvas for your self-expression. Pair with accessories and see what story you can tell through your attire.

    Adrija Dey’s proclivity for observation fuels her storytelling instinct. As a lifestyle journalist, she crafts compelling, relatable narratives across diverse touchpoints of the human experience, including wellness, mental health, relationships, interior design, home decor, food, travel, and fashion that gently nudge readers toward living a little better. For her, stories exist in flesh and bones, carried by human vessels and shaped through everyday endeavours. It is the small stories we live and share that make us human. After all, humans and their lores are the most natural and raw repositories of stories, and uncovering them, for her, is akin to peeling an orange under a winter afternoon sun. Always up for a chat, she believes the best stories come from unfiltered yapping, where "too much information" is kind of the point. A graduate of Indraprastha College for Women, University of Delhi, and an alumna of the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC), Delhi, Adrija spends her idle hours cocooned with herbal tea and a gripping thriller, scribbling inner monologues she loosely calls poetic pieces, often with her succulents in attendance. On lazier days, she can be found binge-watching, for the nth time, one from her comfort-show holy trinity: The Office (US), Brooklyn Nine-Nine, or Modern Family. Dancing by herself to her peppy playlists, however, is an everyday ritual she swears by religiously.Read More
