Coordinating accessories for girls on a mehndi

Re: Coordinating accessories for girls on a mehndi

It's not so much of if it will 'go' or 'match' it's the 'will it compliment my outfit'. I probably sound so vain, but from personal experience if I have spent lots of my very hard earned money on an outfit for any occasion, do I want to wear an accessory that will not compliment my outfit? I don't know. It obviously depends on the people who will be wearing the clip. When my family tired to do this type of thing it all went a little bit pear shaped, some people wore 'better flowers' or 'didn't wear the right type of flower' It was more of a heahache than anything else.

I was thinking about giving them as gifts, when the boys' dupattas are given out.

girls im a hijaban and could totally rock the flower in her hijab. heck even a paranda would look cool..just lace it with the hijab.

you can wrist crossages (sp?) ie. flowers on the wrist.

on my bro's mehndi, us girls wore a yellow suit with another colour. i was yellow-ferozi, bhabhi was yellow-pink, sister was yellow-purple, and my mom was all four - yellow, ferozi, pink and purple.

another mehndi that i went to, the girls all had the same hairstyle - jhummar, back puff and paranda on the side.

on my dholki - everyone wore churni dresses in different colors but same style.

At my cousins wedding a couple of years ago, all the girls in our family got the same suit fabric, and were told to get it embroidered/stitched however we liked. The end result was 10 girls who were easily recognisable as the bridal party, but with 10 totally different kaam/style jora's! Looked great in pictures!

I quite like this idea. I gave my cousin a fresh flower wrist corsage for her mehni as a 'gana' (sp) and she loved it, so did all the mothers and aunties, they were dead impressed!
