Vintage Roses and Pearls: My Grandmother’s Purse

Sometimes, I want to achieve a look that is casual yet dressy, but inherently comfortable! I always enjoy wearing this flowy two-layered Kurta as it achieves that look perfectly for me. I bought it at an exhibition in Mumbai where I fell in love with the embroidered pockets. There is another reason I love this outfit – it provides a perfect foil for my Dadi’s (Paternal Grandmother) purse. Things that belonged to another generation have always held a special appeal for me and the fact that it belonged to my very stylish grandmother only makes me covet it more! My grandfather brought it for her on a trip from Sweden and she later gave it to my mother.  I have now borrowed it from my mother on a permanent basis!

(Accessories: Earrings – Isharya)

I love the double layering on this Kurta

The embroidery can be seen through the top layer

The best part – it’s a pocket!

My Dadi’s Purse

I enjoy carrying this purse with this outfit

The Kurta provides a solid block of colour that is a great backdrop for the purse

I absolutely love these Isharya earrings!
