One of the stars who has always made a fashion statement is when one talks about celebrity fashion, Alia Bhatt. Her red carpet looks, or the looks at a movie promotion, or even at the wedding of one of her friends are minimal, easy-going and down to earth. The actress wore a pastel saree at a wedding event and it got everyone talking and it is because of all the right reasons! The appearance was minimalistic, gentle, and highly sophisticated all the things that most of us would like to imitate without spending much money.
In this article we will re-create a affordable-budget style breakdown of Alia Bhatt in her pastel saree look. I will drop simple hacks on what you can do to get her look down, find more affordable options to her wedding day wardrobe, work your own style and still look fabulous.

                                 

1. Why Pastel Sarees are Perfect for Weddings


The colors Pastel have also become quite popular in the past years; examples include baby pink, mint green, lavender, or powder blue. Easy on the eyes and it looks good on most skin tones, they are also soft and have enough charisma to suit both a day and night wedding.

Unlike deep red or high maroon color sarees, pastel sarees have a contemporary but yet conventional look. Alia Bhatt is the one who has always mastered the art of staying simple yet stylish and that is exactly what the pastel saree outfit was able to do.


2. Breaking Down Alia’s Pastel Saree Look


The classic and chic was the look of Alia at the wedding event. The special thing about it was:

  • The Saree: A light pastel saree that could be chiffon or organza, and there would be light embroidery. It was airy and fluid.
  • The Blouse: A sleeveless blouse in a paired pastel color, not over complicated, simple yet fancy.
  • Jewellery: The minimum jewellery- only a couple of dangling earrings and a bindi to sound more traditional. 
  • Makeup: Fresh makeup- nude lipstick, soft eyeliner and a juicy dewy base.
  • Hair: A tidy bun with a few flowers to give vibe to the wedding.
This appearance is revitalizing since it is not over-styled. It can be easily worn to a wedding of your friend, to some family gathering, or to a celebratory function.

4. Real Life Tip Wedding Story of My Cousin


I recall I attended the wedding of my cousin last year where everybody wore extremely embroidered lehengas and sarees. I did not want to spend a lot of money but stand out. I took my inspiration of Alia and a powder blue organza saree was purchased in a local store at a price of only 1200 Rupees, I designed a simple blouse and combined it with silver jhumkas. Hard to believe but I got many compliments and the best bit, I was comfortable during the event! Less can be more than enough.

5. This gives you an appearance on all occasions 



  • Why What is cool about Alia in her pastel saree is that she can use it on multiple occasions.  
  • You may apply it up During the day weddings (pastels are excellent when radiated by the daylight). 
  • Festivals including Diwali or Raksha Bandhan Engagements o receptions when you do not want to be too heavy. 
  • Even to office parties or family with toned jewellery. 
  • This is a smart investment because you can wear the saree draped in a different manner each time you wear it!  


6. Budget Analysis And this is how I can reproduce the entire look under 3000: 


Saree: rs.1200 - rs. 1500 
Bouse stitching: rs. 500 
Earrings: rs. 400 - rs. 500 
Makeup- to go: rs. 800 (they can be used many times) 
Footwear: rs. 600- rs. 700 
Price: rs. 3000- rs.5000 (one set can be reused)
