Good afternoon and wish you all a very Happy Diwali!!!
Diwali - A festival of lights. Many people immediately think of Halloween and Christmas when it comes to winter holidays, but in Hindu culture, there’s another major winter holiday that can’t be missed – Diwali. Diwali is also known as the festival of lights and is celebrated by millions of people around the world. This year it falls on October 27th, 2019. Diwali originated in India as a celebration of light, in fact, the world Diwali comes from “Deepavali”, meaning “row of lamps.” It is traditionally celebrated by Hindus, Jains, and Sikhs, although over the years it has been incorporated into many different cultures around the world. It is known as the festival of lights because in celebration people light many small clay lamps called "diyas" around their homes to represent the victory of good over evil and to invite good luck and prosperity from the Hindu Goddess Lakshmi and the god Ganesh, who represents good luck, wealth and enlightenment.
Its a tradition to wear new clothes on Diwali, as Diwali according to Indian calender indicates the beginning of the new year and burying of all the old painful memories of bygone years and wearing new clothes is just a symbolical gesture to commemorate that.
As I mentioned its a tradition, I opt for my favourite attire, Saree. This is a lovely floral red saree. It is made of silk. My body loves its touch, it is very comfortable to wear and easy to carry. Few oxidised jewellery is enough to get the pretty look. light makeup I liked to put.
Do you like this saree? please feel free to give your opinion about this look. Would love to hear from all of you.
Have a great and healthy week ahead.
Wowww, molto bello, una fantasia meravigliosa. Buona continuazione di domenica:)
