One thing that gets unparalleled attention (& share of the budget) when it comes to Indian weddings is Jewelry. Bridal jewelry has come a long way from being traditionally obsessed with yellow gold only to more exotic gems and stones. Diamonds, kundan, polki, meena and even while gold and pearls are what modern day brides desire. Most of these stones are set in gold but there is a huge variety that is available in semi precious form or in the form of fashion jewelry. An assorted collection,having both heavy and lightweight designs, would work best.
Statement Pieces (the Must have ones in your collection)
1) Chandelier earrings – They work with almost anything – saree, suit or even a fancy top. Include them in your collection to make a bold and eye catching statement.
2) Some fancy rings: Buy them in kundan, polki or silver. The bigger and the more eye catching the design the better they look.
3) Plain gold and silver Bangles – These can be wore with Indian or western attire and can be mixed and matched with heavy gold or diamond bangles.
4) A lightweight Kundan or Polki set (preferably in a neutral color)
5) Maangtika – This is one piece of the jewelry that most people think it limited to only brides. But, I don’t agree. A maangtika can be worn in so many different ways and sometimes as the only piece to accessorize the whole outfit.So, don’t forget to add this in your list.
6) A cuff bracelet: A perfect accessory for those fancy night parties, a dinner at a friends place or an evening tea. Mix and match with your watch or bangles.
7) A Strand of pearls
8) Jhumki – A traditional pair of gold or kundan jhumki can be worn with suits during the day or with a cocktail saree at night. They never go out of style.
