Red Saree OOTD : 5 Tips to Wear a Red Saree

lancy in red saree

My ill health started troubling me a lot after this new year (chickenpox) but now I feel tad relieved that I am recovering. Thank you all for your kind messages and emails!

I got this lovely red colored saree from Sareez.com last December! I wore it twice since then! Today, I’ll be doing an OOTD post wearing the saree! I’d also love to share few ideas on wearing a red saree which you will find at the end of this post.

The saree is made of chiffon and brasso! It is a red and black saree that carries a beautiful beige-black-golden border. I won’t call it a light-weight saree as it has a decent amount of embellishments (floral, leaf and stone work) however it is also not a heavy one. I felt comfortable wearing the saree all day long! The color combination and the looks of the saree makes it a perfect party wear! The partially see through black pallu adds the glam factor without making it too-revealing! The blouse is bright red in color and comes with a piece of silk fabric (stitched). A petticoat was also provided with the saree when I received it!

Price : Rs.2171

My Skincare Routine : January 2015

Winter is when you pay tons of attention to your skin!
The more you hydrate, the more it shines! ♥

During summers, my skin gets quite oily; especially around the T zone. But I’ve never had that urge to follow an ideal skin care routine as I stay at home most of all the time! I wash my face like twice to thrice a day and I am done with the routine! But say WINTER!! It sucks out all the moisture; leaving my skin dry, unhealthy and not-so-smooth.

So that is when I realized I, being a normal-oily skinned girl need to follow a moisturizing routine in winters, too! As I am soon going to hit 20, I am already seeing changes in my skin type. It is leaning towards a slightly drier side! I hardly had the need to layer on moisturizers when I was in my teens. And now that it is coming to an end, a routine is a must!

It has been a long time since I paid attention to my skin. I was doing well with my hair care routine due to the hair growth challenge however, my skin lacked that nourishment! For the last one week, I am taking good care of my skin and things are back on track! Today, I will be sharing my current skin care routine with you all. And I’ll try to update the same every month!
