I have my cousins wedding coming up in Feb next year, and I am already sweating it out. Its going to be a 3-4 day function = I need almost 10 outfits just to be Delhi bling wedding ready. No offense. Even though I just got married less than a year ago, I can’t repeat clothes, because all of them have photos everywhere. I am usually not that fussy, but newbie brides are something like a show piece, everyone notices them and you gotto be prepared.
But no matter what, there is no way in hell I am buying more clothes. If there is one thing I have learnt from my house shifting from Delhi to Gurgaon is that the less junk you have, the happier and healthier you are. Its such a pain to store outfits. Luckily I have a end to end wall sized wardrobe, but Delhi has so many seasons…so from summer to winter wear, and some rainy wear (I am a Mumbaiite), I really have a space crunch, and to say it subtly, a finance crunch too when it comes to ethnic shopping. Its expensive people !
Thank god for the budding rental websites, I was not too comfortable with them few months back, but with their growing popularity, I have decided…I am going to test it out this wedding season.
These are some of my top budget wedding guest outfit picks from various websites. Tell me which ones should I go for.
