#debsaristories
And its a wrap for the year! Never saree-d more!!! Compiled my fav looks from the year to share with you all.

- First year of #100sareepact and #100CholiCraze. - First year of sharing stories through sarees! I started a blog by encouragement but went back to being private again.
- First year of learning about so many weaves and wonders. Wish me many more please!
- Made many virtual friends, had moments of same pinch sarees, wows, oh nos!
- Some of my saree movies flopped while others were superhit with audience
- Experimented with saree draping; discovered and learnt a lot, including about myself
- Committed mistakes but quickly dusted and course corrected
- My love for saree would not change but how much of it is shared via social media next year isnt sure yet
- I did not focus on physical fitness as much as I wanted to
- I had a great year with memories of family and friends beautiful wrapped and draped in six yards! - Contrary to my posts, I ain't as social quickly in gatherings... i take time to brew friendships and I enjoy my quiet time with myself when me and I dont talk to each other but just are together...

Happy holidays gals! Enjoy life like there is no tomorrow... and if you are going rough.. remember.. "Nothing happens to anybody which he is not fitted by Nature to bear" ❤❤❤

If any one of you find it, I am happy to take it back...!! What did I lose? My mind, of course! East West fusion taken too seriously!! My last experiment for this year I promise. I am sure you will be throwing rotten eggs and tomatoes at me, I will try to accept it with much grace and behave well.🤗 After listening to the amazing Vidya Vox latest remix of "Fly Away + MaatiBaani", I immediately wanted to team up my tank top with a bandhani sari...and I DID.

Step by step procedure from day to night transition and transformation. Oh before we go there it us mandatory to apply makeup. First use confidence as your primer and foundation, attitude fir your eyes, smile on your lips. Now proceed to the instructions..

- Step 1. Start your day with Adarsh nari look. Sari and cape draped over Jean, boots and tank top.
- Step 2. Done with meetings? Take the cape off. You are the experimenting sari & tank top fusion! (Jean and boots are hidden)
- Step 3. Time to let it loose? Take the sari off! Tank top, jean and boots! Yo babes!
- Step 4. Ab marwaoge kya? Isse aage hum aur kya kaheyn, jaanam samjha karo!!

My saree-experiment-hormone is very unpredictable. Sometimes it hibernates for months and other times it springs up like a geyser way too often. Haan... kaam ki baat phir se yaad kar lo... if you find the lost screw, please hand it over to me! My duas and muahs will be with you.

Beautiful! As a teenager, I was... fair, dove eyed, long curly hair, silky skin, slender and attractive - NOT!!! I was none of the above. I am not theoretically beautiful, i was exactly opposite. Dark, heavy eyeglasses (-9.5, -6.0), thinning hair on scalp, excess hair on face and body, acne all over face neck and back, clumsy (I can never walk with adhaa, i walk like i am gonna create a tremor.. bang bang bang).
Everything that is required to make a teenager absolutely non-stunner, non-confident and wishing to vanish- I WAS and stayed that way for long time! But... I think that's when my saree affection grew most. I would choose to wear a saree at the drop of a hat because atleast it made me look and feel different. My teenage strategy! 😎😎 hey, atleast people would say "saree is beautiful!"
Passion for sarees stayed, grew and became part of me. As the year is drawing itself to a close, quick recap I realized, apart from completing my first #100sareepact and #100CholiCraze this year, I learnt to experiment, fail, learn and enjoy the process thoroughly!

I had ton of fun draping sarees for happiness, sorrow, mood-offs, mood-ons or simply for no reason! When you have nothing more to lose,you have no fear of failure!! The teenager me had seen worse days and had manage to sustain and survive! Duh! Of course I am capable of failing AND getting up AND running AND not losing hope!! I wanted to share my top 5 craziest experimental #desividesi looks... I wouldn't have thought of it last year! This was possible only because of the group and all the positivity here.
