Native Dress

Today we wore our traditional Indian clothing to work. We went shopping this past weekend and each bought a salwar kameez. It was a great deal - the blouse, pants, and the dupatta (scarf) all for less than $20 USD! Everyone seemed to love it, and we got great reactions, especially from all the guys! Here is a quick shot of all the great women that we are working with.



I also tried on the saree that I bought in Mysore a few weeks ago. I got the "Western Saree," which means that the skirt came pre-stitched so that I don't have to worry about trying to pleat it and pin it myself. I'm not sure how frequently I'll get a chance to wear it, but it's so beautiful!

I know I've been negligent in blogging lately, but I promise I'll catch up soon. I'm off to Goa in the morning for a short weekend of relaxing by the ocean!
