Get Indian Kurti And Salwar Kameez Online



When I married an Indian man, I knew that I was in for a culture shock. I mean, I was prepared for it – he did his best to help me prepare for it! Even so, I was very nervous. I remember the first time I was going with him to meet his parents. Mind you, I didn’t meet them until after we had married because they still live in India. But I was just so determined to impress them – I think I stayed up at night for a week, fretting over it. I wanted to make sure that I would make the right first impression on them. I wanted to show them that I was open to their culture and I wasn’t just some American girl who expected everyone to conform to her whims.
Naturally, as an American girl, my solution to this was shopping. During one of my sleepless nights, I pulled up the Ahaarya website, which my sister-in-law recommended to me. I know that clothing isn’t everything, but in my mind at that moment, looking like I was familiar with Indian outfits for women was the way to make a good first impression. So, I started shopping. I bought some Indian kurtis online for the more casual affairs and for traveling – day-to-day kind of stuff. Then, for parties that we would apparently be undoubtedly attending, I bought some party wear salwar kameez online. I felt quite prepared by the end of it!
Buying a bunch of Indian outfits for women, obviously, did not fully prepare me for all India had in store, but I can’t deny that it made a different, knowing that I was arriving in something that made me feel comfortable.

Indian Clothing for Special Occasions

Even though I was born in the United States and I have never been to any different parts of the world, I have many friends who have. While I'm wishing that I can visit different places and travel the world, I end up living vicariously through my friends' experiences because I am so intrigued by other cultures.
One of my best friends, was born in India and moved to the United States when she was two years old. Because she moved here at such a young age, she was able to adapt to a whole new country. Luckily, she still remembers her native culture. When she was about to turn 16, she decided she wanted a party that would combine these two separate worlds into one. As an American tradition, she wanted to have a sweet sixteen celebration with an Indian twist: every guest had to wear Indian clothing.
I was a little bit caught off guard at this requirement because I have never worn any Indian clothing and I didn't even know where I would get any clothes, but my friend reassured me that she would help me. She showed me a few pictures of different outfits such as sarees, kurtis, and salwar kameez until I had a better idea of what I would need to wear.
Once I got a sense of Indian style and clothing, I still didn't know where to buy them. I asked my friend and she suggested that I check out Indian clothing online at Ahaarya. She told me that her and her family members get a lot of their clothes from there whenever they need an outfit for a special occasion.
I browsed their website and I was immediately awed by how many beautiful clothes they had. They had colorful clutches, gold plated bangles, kurtis, salwar kameez and mojris. I ended up purchasing a beautiful deep red saree and some accessories to go with it. At my friend's sweet sixteen party, I was excited to show off my outfit. I got many compliments and numerous people asked me where I got my clothes. Thanks to Ahaarya, I was able to dress appropriately and fit in.

Indian Clothing at a Wedding

For the entirety of my life, I have been a part of many weddings. When I was younger, I was the flower girl and now that I am older, I am the maid of honor. I have helped many of my friends and cousins plan their weddings and it has always been very fun to me. One day, my friend asked me to help her plan a wedding with an Indian theme. This was different to me because every other wedding that I had planned revolved around well known American traditions. Regardless of my lack of knowledge, I decided to help her out anyways because I figured it would be a good learning experience.
Most of the time, I just researched online for Indian traditions. I learned a lot and helped the bride-to-be with organizing the event. However, what she needed me for the most was picking out sarees for the bridesmaids and gave me that assignment to complete on my own. I was nervous because I knew that I had to pick the most trendy and stylish sarees for five different ladies.
I wanted this wedding to be perfect for my friend so I did all of the research that I could in order to find out what was fashionable and acceptable at Indian weddings. I found out that sarees of the same color are appropriate for the bridesmaids and that, though most bridesmaids dress in the same color, it is also acceptable to wear different colored sarees. I knew that my friend wanted the bridesmaids to wear the same color, so I set out to find five of the same outfit in the same color.
The challenging part of figuring out what the traditions are was over and now came the fun part: shopping. I looked for different stores until I found the right Indian clothing online. While looking at some websites, there was always something missing: either the sarees were not trendy enough or they didn't have any in a good color.
I finally found Ahaarya, a place for Indian clothing online shopping. They have many different options such as Indian salwar kameez and kurtis which I found to be very interesting. In the end, I bought five beautiful black and gold sarees that would look great on every bridesmaid and I also purchased a red and green salwar kameez and a pink kurti for myself.
The wedding turned out to be a success and the bride, bridesmaids and guests all loved the sarees that were bought. I'm glad I got to help out with this event because I gained a lot of knowledge with a different culture and ended up with a few outfits in case I ever decide to travel to India.
