#29 My favorite fish saree with an interesting tale \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Relatively new, I picked this up at an exhibition about a year and a half back. It was love at first sight with this red and black matka silk beauty, with multicolored fish swimming in gradually increasing waves along the border. One look and I fell for it hook, line and sinker!<\/p>\n
Here is the tale of the day I first draped this saree. I was impatient to wear it, and as there was no occasion in sight, I draped it just like that for a day at work.

With that saree, we couldn\u2019t possibly let you go just like that, said they. <\/p>\n
