#38 is one of the few sarees I have purposefully purchased for a specific occasion; in this case, a family wedding. My usual habit is to buy a good saree when I find it, where I find it. Occasions will follow when they do \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
So this saree goes back about 16 years, a couple years after my wedding. We had a wedding in the family. As I had a lot of saree stock from my own trousseau I had no plans to buy more, but the hubby insisted on getting me a new one \u2013 must say I felt pretty special \ud83d\ude42 Thus we went saree shopping and bought this designer piece from Vama, and an expensive one it was! In shimmering shades of green silk, with a beautiful combination of zari work and sequins, before the days when sequined sarees became the rage. The zari on the border and palla is a nice design with squares, quite different from my other sarees. The palla is simply gorgeous, with the same squared design, and large jharoka style motifs, and of course sequin work.<\/p>\n
With its sober pastel shade, smooth caress of the silk, and easy drape, this saree also makes it to my top ten favorites for wedding wear. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
