If there is one piece of Indian ethnic wear that makes you feel all kinds of beautiful a woman is a saree. Nothing can beat a good saree look and to ace this look, all you need is a gorgeous saree and the perfect accessories to go with it. You don’t need to wait for the right occasion to wear a saree, you can wear it to literally any occasion without wanting to worry if you would look good in it or not because you know you would. You can wear a saree to your children’s parent-teacher meeting and the same saree later to an evening function but with a change of accessories.

Having stated that, having the right accessories to top off your saree look is like the perfect icing on the cake. There are some pointers and tricks you have to keep in your mind to really ace and complete your outfit. We have compiled some tips and guidelines on how to put on a saree with elegance and elevate the look and feel altogether with the correct accessories.

Statement Jewellery

If you are someone who loves to all out on jewellery- this one is for you. As we have said before a good saree look goes a long way if it is accessorised the right way, choosing to go for statement jewellery pieces always wins the deal. Here the only thing you need to keep it to keep your saree plain and let the jewellery piece to that bit for you. A gorgeous plain silk or chiffon saree when paired with a shining diamond necklace, earrings and rings make it a look that will make heads turn around. People will be awe in of your choice of jewellery and your diamonds will definitely become the talk of the party. You can balance this further by keeping a very neutral hand on the makeup to look even more elegant and beautiful.

Diamond earrings

Contrary to our first point- if you’re someone who does not appreciate heavily loaded diamond jewellery you can go for diamond earrings. Depending on how heavy or detailed your saree you can fluctuate between the size of the earrings you want to go for. You can go for gorgeous heavy and intricately designed earrings that will go with your saree and appreciate and accentuate your neckline. You can let your hair down and let the earrings mix well with the saree. You can also opt for tiny studded earrings which are equally as beautiful and save you the hassle of wearing the bigger ones.

Watch and Bracelet for the minimal

For the minimal get-to-look where you to either keep it professional or keep it very sophisticated, accessorizing your saree with a watch and bracelet goes a long way. A watch when paired with a complimentary bracelet looks very chic and will for sure make you look more powerful and in control.

The right bag

The right choice of bag to carry with your saree always makes most of the difference. Now the size of your bag may also depend on the number of things you want to carry but also on the occasion you are planning to wear the saree. If it is a professional space then you can for sling bags where you can carry your phone, pen drives or a notepad to take notes in. If it’s an event a clutch is a must to carry. Backpacks too can add a lot of edge to your saree look but for that, you will have to style it in a street-style way to give more of an indo-western vibe to it.
