Earrings

If you like to stay in trend, then a huge statement chandbali is the first choice you should be looking at. Bold chandbalis are this season’s hot catch. They go exceptionally well with any lehenga style.

If you are not a fan of chandbali, any big catchy earring would do the magic for you. If your lehenga blouse is filled with enchanting work, you need to get your earrings right for the focus to remain on your face and upper part of the body.

If you like to go traditional, another good option is age old jhumkas!

Ear Cuffs

If you don’t mind throwing out a bit of experimentation, then a bold ear cuff can be your best bet. These ear cuffs give a royal finish to your ensemble.

If you plan to try a ear cuff, our advice would be to go for it if you have a plain high neck blouse with your skirt. This will help to balance out the look.

When your outfit is already crowded with too much work, wearing a heavy ear cuff would drown your style completely. Be sure you try this jewellery piece when your lehenga lean towards simple and easy-going style.

Bangles

When you deck up stone studded heavy work lehenga, obviously your hands should match the rhythm of work rendered on your outfit.

The most obvious choice is to deck up thick layers of bangles that match the shade of lehenga. This remains as the most tested out way to finish off a lehenga by brides and bridesmaid.

However, if you like to keep simple lehenga style and really off from decking up heavy jewellery, then a simple diamond or CZ stone bangles could be a great savior for you.

If you have opted for brocade or other silk lehengas, then bold antique bangles can make a good one to try. You can even opt for silver kada bangles for your designer lehengas considering the huge fame that is being directed towards antique silver pieces this season.

Chokers

Wearing a choker bring all attraction towards your neck and lehenga blouse. If you want to draw the attention towards your bodice, then you should have good choker to strike your look.

If your lehenga blouse has a flattering front neck, or your lehenga has plain blouse with heavily embellished skirt, then to hit a balance, you can wear a statement choker here.

Kundan and antique chokers are trending this season. Depending on the intensity of your overall lehenga look, you can either opt a simple one or a bold layered one. Remember, when you choose a heavy choker to flaunt your look, go easy with rest of your jewellery. Don’t overload your look.

Necklace

If you think the neck clinching choker is not your cup of tea, then a relaxed necklace studded with diamonds or pearls can make your look very attractive. For net lehengas, stone necklace is a best choice to choose.

For brocade lehengas, a simple gold necklace or kundan necklace is enough. However, if you like to show your lehenga in a stylish way, then you need a fancy designer necklace to create that impact.

Long Necklace

A sleek long necklace is a great option to try with indo-western lehengas. Most of the fusion lehengas comes with shirt style blouse; in that case, a long necklace will add a new dimension to your look.

Generally speaking, a long necklace is a must wear when your lehenga blouse have high neck or collar neck.

Tikka

It might surprise many even to hear this. Sometimes, you can skip all the rest of the classic pieces like bangles, earring, and necklace and finish your majestic lehenga with a bold tikka in head.

This head gear is one of the fancy items to flaunt with any lehenga. Right now, kundan studded bold maang tikkas remains everyone’s first choice to try with lehenga.

Hand Cuffs

If you like to infuse a fusion style to your lehenga, then a modern hand cuff is all you need to hit your goal. They are highly trendy and sophisticated to begin with. Thus it’s an apt choice for lehengas which has cape neck or off shoulder blouses.

Needless to mention that, if your lehenga has full sleeve blouse, please don’t attempt to wear a hand cuff as it will look awkward.

Rings

This is often overlooked in many outfits. However, if you know how to play with this accessory, it can remain a center of attraction.

Bold rings studded with kundans or colorful stones will strike a chord to your outfit.

Shoes
