She’s carried you inside her for nine months and brought you into this world. She’s held your hand while you took your first steps and picked you up when you fell down. She’s packed thousands of tiffin-boxes for you to take to school, helped you with homework, and had the chocolate ready on days you were sad. She’s seen you through all of the life’s moments, and she’s still there - her words of wisdom at the ready, her smile always getting you through it all.

Do you really need a specific day to express your love for your mother? Every day should be the right day for this.
The mother-daughter bond is special, sacred, and absolutely unique. One of the aspects that define it is the sari - the first sari a young girl wears - to a school programme or Saraswati Puja - is from her mother’s wardrobe. Together mother and daughter, over the years, go shopping for saris, the mother handing on her tastes and sensibilities and even some prized pieces from her collection.

To celebrate the beautiful bond between a mother and daughter, Simaaya organised “Mothers Drape Daughters”, a programme at which actress Bidipta Chakraborty and her daughter Meghla were present. Meghla said, “She first wore her mother’s saree on her first dance performance. My favourite colour is black and blue.” Bidipta inherited a lot of sarees from her mother. She said, “I love to wear sarees in any occasion. My style is very simple. I love mostly cotton sarees with contrast blouse, with a big red bindi on a forehead and simple contemporary jewelleries to finish my look. My favourite colour is green.”

“Here at Simaaya, we have both traditional and modern saris, that would suit every taste and would compel any shopper to pick up a few. We believe that every single day is Mother’s Day, and our programme was aimed at highlighting the sweet mother-daughter relationship,” said Mr. Rachit Agarwal, director of Simaaya.

The sari never goes out of style. It is suited to every lady out there - whether young or old. Simaaya’s celebration of the sari as one of the defining characteristics of the mother-daughter relationship is sure to find much favour and appreciation.

How many times have you taken out all your clothes from the closet and wondered for the umpteenth time that you have nothing suitable to wear? This can mean two things; either your wardrobe needs a complete revamp or you are a shopaholic who simply collects but never shops wisely! You can view this as a good opportunity to restock your closet and bring in new cuts, designs and colours.

Printed Sarees

You cannot build a colour palette unless you are aware of your own style or choice or colours. Some shades like black, brown, beige and blue are universal, they are classic and can be effortlessly teamed up with other shades. Including them in your colour palette is a good idea, especially if you are partially cleaning out the old stock. If these shades are your main colours, choose a secondary set of shades as neutrals and accents. This should be varied enough so that they can be mixed with other colours for a good ensemble. You will be wearing a lot of the main colours, so buy jackets, trousers, shoes and coats of the same shade. For a neutral canvas, you can opt for muted shades and pastel tones, like different shades of pink and blue. Your accessories like your scarves, ties, tops which you would generally pair up with your basics should be your accent colours.

Once you have decided on your base and accent/highlight colours, it is time to bring out your imaginative self and play around with the shades. Good thing about black and white shades is that you can be quite flexible with these shades and can integrate them easily in your outfits. There are many ways you can do it. With block dressing, you can one solid colour from your palette and combine with not more than two other shades. In block dressing, you can have coloured shirts, shorts or small items and mix them with neutral shades like a leather jacket or a pair of denim jeans. To add a bit of variety to the way you dress, you can opt for tonal dressing; choose a single colour which acts almost like a theme and wear different shades of that colour in your outfit. This gives you a lot of liberty in choosing your shades and experiment with shades.

While restocking, it is good to go minimalistic. You can be imaginative with colours even when you are being a minimalist. Often there are shades which make us happy and integrating them in your wardrobes can make you feel good. You may have happy memories associated with the colour yellow or feel serene in green. Do not forget to add those colours to your closet, because the ultimate aim is to feel good while wearing your dress!

Summer is all about looking fresh and vibrant no matter how much hot and humid the weather is. So, if you are planning to visit a special occasion, make sure you wear an attire that's full of liveliness, and will make you look ultra modern and stylish. Wondering which attire to wear at a summer party? Well, that totally depends on the type of party you are visiting. If it's a traditional occasion, go for ethnic attire; and if it's a poolside party, go for light and trendy western outfits. But, if the occasion is a grand one, and doesn't have any barrier related to the theme, then wear a designer evening gown, and bedazzle everyone.

Gowns are one of the most beautiful attire a woman can wear, in order to look like a queen. If you are thinking gowns are going to make you feel too hot, then the only way to beat the heat is by wearing gowns that are made of cotton and is flared; avoid wearing bodycon gowns that will stick to your body and make you feel uncomfortable. Apart from checking the gown's fabric (in order to feel comfy), another thing that you must be choosy about before wearing/buying a gown for a summer party is its colour.

Colours truly play a very vital role in making or breaking your look. And when it comes to summer parties, wearing an attire that has a soothing and very pleasant colour is absolutely needed. Wondering which are the colours that can make you look summer-ready or as vibrant and hot as summer? Then, here are some of the summer-fresh colours that perfectly matches the summer season:

The summery "Peach Echo"

Peach Echo or Peach is the perfect colour for summer; it is light, fresh, and enhances the feminine factor. This is the only shade in the orange family that is all-compassing. Therefore, if you wear a peach coloured gown, you are bound to look like a pretty princess. This shade emits friendlier qualities and evokes a strange warmth and openness.

Serenity blue is seriously so serene!

If you are bored wearing sky blue, but you still wish to stick to the colour blue and wear a lighter shade (of blue), then there can't be a better colour than serenity blue. The colour is extremely serene, and soothing to everyone's eyes. So, it can be considered as the perfect colour for summer, that will indirectly help people sooth their eyes in the scorching summer.

How can we forget the rose quartz colour?

Another soothing colour that would look amazing on any woman is the rose quartz colour. This colour is gentle, as well as a persuasive tone that conveys a sense of compassion and composure. This particular colour reflects lightheartedness and would certainly make you the showstopper of the party, because everyone would be easily impressed by you and your lovely rose quartz gown.

Iced Coffee colour will cool down the ambience

Shades of pink, peach, and light blue are too common, isn't it so? Why don't you try out a rare yet cool colour, something like an iced coffee colour? The iced coffee colour is basically a very light and relaxing colour. It's the colour of an iced or cold coffee.
