Want to wear your favourite sleeveless blouse but not sure whether your in-laws will like it or not? Then why not throw on a shrug or a jacket?
Wear your favourite top and jeans and cover it up with a long jacket. Once you step out of the house with your hubby, you can remove the jacket and flaunt your pretty clothes. This way you ensure that your in-laws are happy and you get to have your own way too.
Silk jackets with delicate embroidery look great when paired with ethnic wear. For your western wear, invest in some nice shrugs and jackets in darker colours. They will go with almost every dress.

Full-length cotton skirts paired with a collared short kurti will be ideal for a lazy Sunday. It will not be too casual or too dressy if some friends or relatives decide to drop in unexpectedly. Skirts also let you breathe freely and move with ease, while looking stylish yet all covered-up.
If you do not fancy wearing salwar kameez daily, then buy some beautiful kurtis in different styles. A Chinese collar kurti, a kurti with flair, an empire line kurti or a short kurti are one of the many options available for you. Pair them up with leggings, jeggings or even fitted pants. Accessorise them with a kada, earrings and cocktail rings.
