We all love to play dress up at weddings. Even if your lehenga weighs more than you and your best friend put together, the sheer grandeur of being dolled up in your traditional best is one feeling we love to enjoy. But what happens after the big day is long over? Don’t we just hate stashing away our beautiful outfits in our closets? We feel you, girls. Most of us are guilty of buying lehengas convincing ourselves that we would re-use them later, but do you actually get around doing that? Here’s how you can revive all your lehengas:
Lehenga with a skirt
Give dimension to your outfit by layering your ensemble with a statement long necklace. Adding a necklace will help you enhance the bare shirt and the heavily embellished lehenga.

Lehenga with a crop-top
If you have an embellished lehenga, tone it down in the smartest and chicest way by adding a crop-top.
