Western Ways to Wear a Basic Ethnic Skirt1. Structured sleeveless top and the skirt

You could pair up the printed desi ethnic skirt with a neutral toned structured sleeveless top, wearing it anywhere you feel like – summer weddings, special events, occasions or just about for a girls’ night out too. Complete the look with minimal tan makeup, nude lips and dark eyes, and wear mojaris or flats for the feet.

You could mix and match warm and cool shades of the color wheel and balance the look with a self-colored satin Indian skirt and a long flowing structured sleeveless kurta or an embroidered jacket for the evening cocktail party. Complete the look with a low bun and gorgeous eye makeup, pink lips that compliment the skin tone and the color of blue and green too. Heels for the feet are a must.

3. Crocheted crop tops with lehenga skirts

For a pretty feminine avatar to don, you could pair up a minimally embellished lehenga skirt in bright warm tones with a crocheted neutral toned or white top. Keeping the look minimal, the makeup too should be a mix of healthy flushed cheeks in pink or peach, and same with the lips too. Hairstyle for the occasion as deemed fit, but do carry a clutch in neutral tones to balance the look; heels for the feet are a must.

For a very westernized touch to the Indian avatar, embroidered jacket can be paired up with an embellished gold motif lehenga skirt. Doubles up as an evening gown in asymmetrical tones to wear; complete the look with jhutis or kolhapuris for the feet and evening party makeup. Don’t forget to carry a tote bag in hand!

5. White sheer or lace crop top with a white lehenga skirt

Pairing up a white sheer or lace crop top with a white lehenga skirt, and completing the look with white heels would be a monotonish fashion statement to make. You can either opt to leave your hair loose and bouncy, or tie it into a high ponytail. Makeup wise, the look should be clean with plenty of focus on the eyes. A blingy neutral toned clutch to carry along completes the look!

6. Black crop tops and lehenga skirts

For a westernized touch to pair up with the traditional lehenga skirt, one could wear a black cotton crop top in full sleeves along with a chic mirror worked lehenga rajasthani skirt.  Statement neckpieces enhance the look and sultry eye makeup blends in very well!
