I had had an attack of wheezing last night and been plagued with a head cold for several days so woke up feeling lethargic and somewhat under the weather. Felt like I could use some comfort in the circumstances so marched over to my parents’ house ( they live 5 houses away) and asked my mom for one of her sarees to wear – it worked like a charm!

Teamed with a proper saree blouse for once ( an old lycra) and a string of brass beads and my favourite MAC lipstick smile.
The saree is a cotton Rajasthani print with a pallu that is completely different from the rest of the saree. The floral print is not my usual cup of tea but in terms of reminding me of mum’s hugs, spot on!
