I am and have always been a die-hard pearl fan…so the panch/sat laras are always popular with me. But Mehnaz is right…they must be worn on their own…not in conjunction with any other necklaces, except maybe a matching choker and they either look great on the person or horrible.
My mother insisted on getting me the hyderabadi sat lara in green and I made her sell it later because I couldn’t imagine ever wearing it for my wedding or for any other occasion. Then I opted to get a two string one rather than the typical three…just because it has larger pendants than the normal ones and I didn’t want it to look busy.
Hubby got me a chandan haar…it’s gorgeous…especially when worn with a sari.
MIL wanted to get me a gul sair but I declined…just couldn’t imagine when I would wear it.
