If you have also finalized your Teej saree, but are confused about how to decorate your hands, then red bangles can make your look very beautiful.
Red color is associated with marriage and auspiciousness. This is the reason why red bangles are always in demand on festivals like Teej. The special thing is that now many types of designs and combinations are being seen in red bangles also. Depending on the color of your saree, you can choose from plain glass bangles to stone, pearl, velvet and thread bangles.
If you also want to wear something trendy and different this time, then you can take ideas from these bangles designs.
Raindrop bangles will give you a stylish look
If you like a little sparkle and a glamorous touch, then raindrop bangles can be a good option. Small crystals or stones on these bangles appear like raindrops, which look very beautiful when the light falls on them.
You can wear plain red or maroon raindrop bangles with your saree. If you want a little more traditional touch, then Kashmiri Ghungroo bangles or kada can also be paired with them. This will make the whole look festive and elegant.
Velvet Bangles with Pearl Bracelet
If you want a royal and bridal feel in your Teej look, then you can try the combination of pearl bangles with velvet bangles. Velvet bangles look very rich and the pearl work bracelet with them makes the whole look more beautiful.
Especially this type of combination will look good with red, maroon or dark pink saree. This bangle set can also be a great option for newly married women.
Get a different look with handmade thread bangles
If you want to try something new instead of wearing the same glass bangles every time, then handmade thread bangles can be a better option for you. Artisans wrap colorful threads on these bangles by hand and decorate them with stones, mirrors, gota or other decorative work.
Their biggest advantage is that apart from being traditional, they also look quite unique. On the occasion of Teej, their combination with saree and traditional jewelery can make your entire look special.
If you like less bangles then wear thread kada.
If you do not like to wear too many bangles in your hands, but still want to make your hands look stylish on Teej, then thread kada is a great option.
Kundan or stone work thread kada can also be worn alone. If you want to make it a little more traditional, then you can wear some plain red glass bangles on either side. This combination will be simple yet look quite royal.
Plain red glass bangles never go out of fashion
If you do not like to experiment much and want a classy look, then plain red glass bangles are the best option. Their fashion never goes out and they easily match with almost every type of traditional saree.
If you want, you can also wear one or two statement bangles among the plain bangles. The combination of red bangles with oxidized ghunghroo bangles, golden kada or kundan bangles looks very beautiful.
Velvet and pearl bridal set
Velvet and pearl bangle set can be quite attractive for newly-wed women. Wearing pearl and polki designed bracelets with velvet bangles gives a heavy and bridal look to the hands.
If your saree is red then you can choose bangles with golden and pearl work. If the saree is of green, pink or maroon color then the contrast combination of red and golden bangles will also look very beautiful.
How to choose the color of bangles with saree?
On Hartalika Teej, it is not necessary that the color of the bangles exactly match the saree. Nowadays contrast bangles are also being liked a lot. Golden or green bangles can be tried with red saree, red bangles with green saree and red-pearl bangles with pink or maroon saree.
Just keep in mind that there is a balance between bangles, bracelets and other jewellery. Using too many designs and colors together can look overdone.
This Hartalika Teej, if you want to wear something with your saree which is traditional as well as trendy, then you can take ideas from the bangles designs given above. Bangles of the right color and design can make your entire desi look more beautiful and attractive.
