4. Light Inners or Warmers: These are much better than the bulky outwear. Wear thermal pants or top from within and then wear your outfit. This will help you stay warm and you won’t be quivering from the inside.
5. Closed Footwear: Feet are most likely to get numb during winters. While men have an option of wearing socks under their shoes, but for ladies, socks under sandals will be a fashion faux pas at its best. Select closed footwear like peep-toes or pointed heels or juttis to go with your traditional attire.
So, if you were going to ditch the next wedding because you were worried how will you survive the chilly weather, now you know. You can always mix and match outfits and create a new one. As for the bride, styling your traditional lehenga with two dupattas will also keep her warm. Accessorise well and opt for elegant makeup and you are all set for the big fat Indian wedding in winters.
