I would probably wear it a little higher than the girl in the picture cos I hate for the hairline and skin to show. But the way its going all the way down to the ears instead of looping and going back up again towards the ears is perfect. I absolutely hate it when they make that ‘w’ shape out of it
Okay so I really like matha patti's, you know the ones that i really simple- not the ones with tones of beads hanging all of the place.
My question is, I already have a gold tikka, can a matha patti be attached by a jeweler in pakistan? Actually, i mean i would only want to wear it on my wedding day, whereas the tikka could be worn again so i dunno.....but matha pattis are detachable anyhoo right???
But this one doesnt look detachable in the pic.
But the jewellers cud accomodate, dey rnt always attached, have noticed on some brides the y r worn as such that dey looks joined in.
You can always try, im sure the jewellers can help you....
Or u can get it made fully matha patti thing n' then after the shaadi later, when ever possible get the hanging beads off.... (sorry not sure if this is a good idea)
Hey all you guppies, I need your help! I'm looking for pictures of pretty, delicate maata pattis. I don't want something huge and thick because I know it won't suit me. Any ideas??
^ do a small, delicate one with tiny, tiny gemstones, and fit it properly to your hairline and face.
if you do a big one and have a small forehead, it’ll overwhelm you. think paayal-inspired, not necklace-like.
like this one- http://www.paklinks.com/gsmedia/files/79511/picture-1-300x237.png - but with a smaller teeka and gemstones.
it should accent your face, not be the focal point. when people look at you, they should be able to take in the whole picture and not just focus on a huge medallion covering your forehead, you know?
^that is awesome advice sgc, thank you tons! my eye was on the exact same picture you linked...do you think if I should do real polki or will it be too overpriced?
is a nath (nose ring) a symbol of anything? as in … are only brides/married people supposed to wear it?
i love both matha pattiz and nose ring … but feel it looks a bit too much if worn together … so i was thinking is it too bad to wear a nose ring on a mehndi? :S … just the nose ring and nothing else …
i think it was one of the bridal asia fashion shows … and one of the designers had chosen to accessorise his collection with just the big plain nose rings … and it looked HAWT …
