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! ππ 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.
