which style of jewelry to go for ... opinions needed ...

[farrah]

larkiyo!

meri mushkil asaan karo!
I am a bit double minded as to what kind of jewelry i should wear with my barat jora!
It’s a blood-red/maroon with golden work everywhere on it … it’s under-construction, so i cant post any pics … and the gold-work is not dull … very traditional work … no diamontees or anything … let’s say … bunto being absolutely unaffordable, i’ve tried to (well my mother has tried to) get something which follows similar lines/work of traditionalism … so you may for your benefit imagine a not-so-heavy red bunto bridal ..

now …

i am in love with this teeka vinni is wearing …

and this style of jewelry …

but this kind of jewelry looks great with the kind of dress i am getting, and it’s also quite popular …

which style do you prefer?

now … how can i mix the jewelry up so that i can wear vinnie wala teeka … waisay will white beaded jewelry go with a fully red/golden dress?

i want to wear a neck-piece in conjunction with a 5/7-lara or a rani haar … like so …

i really like the orange bride’s jewelry … but i am a bit skeptical if it’ll entirely go with my dress. what do you think?
i LOVE white bead stuff … how can i make it work with my super dark/traditional dress?

would it look fine if i wear the vinnie wala teeka, and a similar style of raani-haar/5-7-lara + jhoomar … and wear the neckpiece and earrings of one of the two styles posted above?
i also want to wear a nose ring … … the string of which could match that of the neckpiece then … say what?

i cant keep the white beads for valima becuz i am wearing a diamond-like set …

whats the difference between polki and kundan?

@farrah

whats the difference between polki and kundan?

big difference , well there r 2 main differences

1. polki is real uncut diamonds. kundan is cut glass (well real kundan is uncut but now a days its just glass)
2. kundan in much much cheaper than polki, a bridal kundan set wont cost u more than 3 laak
3. a polki one will clost u a good 5 laak n up depending on if u choose a heavy one…
4. polki sets honestly look STUNNNING when light shines on them n they sparkelt like CRAZY cause they r diamonds after all…
   so all depend son yur budget

[missmolly]

i came across this pic in the bridal thread .. thought u might like it …

its kundan + red quartz ..
and i think the one ur mom likes will go wid ur dress ..

Check out the post marigoldsandmithai.blogspot.com just did on a wedding in lahore. The bride in that is wearing a red/maroon top with a 5 lara haar and a tikka that looks kind of like Vinni’s. I think it looks amazing!
