This saree was a Durga Puja gift from last year with a very quirky story behind it! I had a blue silk blouse that I wanted to pair with one of my Mom’s old gorgeous cream and blue south silk saree, but sadly the zari work on the saree began giving way. So I was left with a blue silk blouse and a desire to wear a cream and blue saree with the blouse. So off we went to the state cottage emporiums and searched high and low for a cream and blue saree, mostly in vain. Then finally the blue and maroon edge with the zari caught our attention and viola we had a perfect match.

I was very happy withe the purchase more so because the quintessential Kerala cotton saree is a must have for even the basic saree collection. The joy doubles while wearing this in the scorching heat and feeling light and airy as ever!
