When the Heat is on

Summer offers you a plethora of dressing options but we all need to choose what works for us in this weather. Here are some tips to make this summer a sartorial adventure. Yes, we all know that the best option for summer is cotton. At work, you can wear a cotton dress shirt with slacks which creates a chic formal look and works best to beat the heat at the same time. And if you want to go the extra mile, get a white cotton Lucknow chikan kurta stitched like a dress shirt.

Have a sundress for your weekend outings. It is always best to stick to cotton instead of synthetic yarns and there are some wonderful  cotton lycra mixes that fall beautifully as well!

Maxi dresses are quite in so try them for a bohemian look. If you are petite, wear a maxi dress with high heels or you will be lost in the volume.

Denims are in during all seasons but if you want to change things a bit, try a pair of jumper shorts with a casual tee and a comfy pair of sneakers.  And for weddings and special events, there are some beautiful tussar cotton mixes in fabrics and saris  that exude a nice, rich and elegant look without the heaviness of a pure silk ensemble.
