5+ Points of Indian Fashion Attraction in Western Parties

An Indian dress always becomes main attraction in western parties or public place because it is a nice costume idea for a Halloween party or costume get together or any special party. A fashion Indian dress combines the traditional Native American clothing with embellishments like fringe and beads. Purchasing this type of dress can be expensive when bought at a store, and making one at home by hand can be a cost-effective alternative. 

With a few tips and some know-how, even novice sewers can put together a fashion Indian dress in no time.

5+ Points of Indian Fashion Attraction in Western Parties

Indian Dressing Instructions

1. Fold one yard of beige colored fabric in half lengthwise, so you now have two layers of fabric. Cut out a basic dress shape from the fabric. The shape should be about one yard from top to bottom and have one asymmetrical strap that cuts across the chest, similar to the look of a cave girl costume You should now have two identical dress panels.

2. Sew the two panels together, creating a seam along both sides of the dress, leaving the space for the arm hole open. Sew a seam at the top of the shoulder strap as well. Turn the dress inside out so the rough edges of the seams are on the inside and there is a smooth hem on the outside.

3. Sew a length of fringe along the chest line of the dress. Fringe trim can be purchased at most craft stores.

4. Tie a few beads to the each side of a strip of faux or real leather. Tie this around the waist of the dress to act as a belt.

5. Attach a few feathers onto another piece of leather strip using super glue. Tie this strip around the head like a headband and tie tightly.

Improvement of Vidya Balan's Canne Arrival In Indian Looks

Improvement of Vidya Balan's Canne Arrival In Indian Looks. Vidya Balan is one of the bold name in Indian Fashion and beauty world. No doubt , she is beautiful but always hesitate to face western mode. Recently she has seen fully Indian avatar in Canne and critics are fully satisfied with her Indian style of wearing. Designer doesn’t always make good stylists dresses but own wearing style can make some one stylist.Our readers can view her with Indian avatar to tweak Vidya’s looks and my view , her fans will happy to see it. There five special matters are seen in her Indian avatar in Canne and those are high lighted here for our fashion fans.

1. Ditch the high neck blouses:-

If you have a bust bigger than a B cup then must avoid high necklines to show off your desires but Vidya has done it in the past and looked fab for it in any season.

Most unflattering high necklines with fabric: Images Vogue India

2. Never drown in fabric those are petite:-

When you are petite extra fabric then must adds pounds, even if she had opted for sleeveless blouses and worn shorter blouses but she would have looked better.

3. Soften the hair in nature:-

She had tried to look to the youthful Sri Devi for hair inspiration in that event.

4) Accessories well furnished:

She has wear every thing as it needs but she fail to take a bag which is essential to carry any event. Just check How Neha Dhupia had done !

5. Mixing it up:-

Sabyasachi is one of well known desginer whom I like but some time he mixing works it up. Just check how Sonam Kapoor had done in the Canne event.

However Vidya Balan really looks more Indian normal woman than a bold Bollywood actress. I too a fan of her but not as much as I like Kimi Katkar.

Ingredients


All the characteristics of this shower gel is just the same as the Pear and Lemongrass.

This shower gel also does not dry out my skin, is quite mild, does not contain parabens or sulphates, is soap free, lathers pretty well, and not tested on animals. It’s just that the fragrance is different .Fig & Rosemary Shower Gel has faintly sweet mixed with citrusy herbal kind of smell. I am not too fond of this particular fragrance.

Fragrances are personal so do smell it before purchasing. Might work for you.

Shahnaz Husain Shatone Scalp Tonic Review

Hi everyone….
I will be reviewing here today, one of my HG hair care product, and I wonder why I haven’t reviewed it as yet. When it comes to skincare/hair care products, I am never satisfied with a product completely and very rarely I buy the same product again. But this “Shatone scalp tonic” is one exception. I started using this around last year October and this is the third bottle I got.


What The Company Claims About The Product:
• Fortifies the hair and makes it stronger.
• It also helps to remove loose dandruff flakes and repair split ends.
• Specially designed to penetrate the roots and nourish the scalp, in order to achieve healthy looking, lustrous hair.



Method of Use
Apply directly on scalp, preferably every morning with cotton wool. Gently massage in circular movements with finger tips for a few seconds. Leave on. No need to wash hair after application as it is non-oily.

Active Ingredients
Amla (Indian Gooseberry), Harar Bahera (Myrobalans), Jatamansi (Spikenard) & Bael.


Quantity- 200ML

Price- INR 500

Packaging
This scalp tonic comes in a long sturdy white plastic bottle, which is very simple/ordinary. The golden cap adds a little charm to it though it has a plastic cap on top which I had to pierce to start using it. The bottle is a bit translucent, so I am able to judge about the quantity used/left with when I hold it in front of the light :-D



Swatch



My Experience With Shahnaz Husain Shatone Scalp Tonic:
This is my HG hair care product, like I mentioned this is the third bottle I got. My first exposure with this product happened last year when I got a hair spa done.
I had very weak hair roots, so every time I would do an oil head massage, it did more harm than good as I lost loads of hair strands after the massage. So, this made me stay away from hair oiling. I told about this to the hair stylist at my salon and he recommended me this. I remember I bought this the same day itself. Coming to how it works on hair and scalp. On immediate application, my scalps feels very energized, invigorated, stimulated along with a slight cooling sensation. It seeps in very quickly and doesn’t require a lot of hair massage like oils. I wonder if it has some alcohol content, as I have noticed that it just evaporates in some time if you take it out and just leave it unused 
It has a strong but bearable fragrance, some thing you generally find in herbal/ayurvedic products. I have sniffed this, like the 100th time but I am still clueless as to how I should describe the fragrance.
Ok, I have noticed that it has helped to a great extent in controlling my hair fall and increasing hair growth. I apply this on my scalp every alternate day with a cotton ball and then do a slight massage. I don’t loose a lot of hair, like the way I used to happen after hair oil massage. Also, it keeps the scalp clean and removes any dandruff/ flakes. Unlike oils it doesn’t weigh down my hair, so I can just leave it on my hair and comb/style normally. Overall it’s an excellent product and I have all the love for it

Good About Shahnaz Husain Shatone Scalp Tonic:
• Controls hair fall
• Promotes fresh hair growth
• Keeps the scalp free from flakes and dandruff
• Promotes blood circulation of the scalp.
• Has a very energizing and invigorating effect on the scalp.
• Is an ayurvedic product, free from chemicals and made of natural ingredients, which rarely have any side effects.
• Easily available across stores.
• A little goes a long way, so 1 bottle lasts for at least 4-5 months.

Bad About Shahnaz Husain Shatone Scalp Tonic:
• Unlike its claim, I have not seen any effect on split ends.
• Does not nourish the hair, so if you have badly damaged or dry hair you will need hair oil massages.
• At INR 500, some of us may consider it expensive.
• The packaging is not so travel friendly.
