The burst of monsoon showers offers a respite to the Indian summers. Along with the refreshing rain comes the festive spirits of Teej. For those to whom this festival is new, Teej is the celebration of the arrival of the monsoon and the eternal love shared between the embodiment of the perfect man and woman in Hindu mythology – Shiva and Parvati. Devotees take to prayers, feasts, fasting and dance. What better reason to deck your best while taking part in the festivities.
Take a look at our Teej Guide for the perfect jewellery to wear this year.
The Mangalsutra
Take to tradition with the simple Mangalsutra. The black beads add a touch of simplicity to your wardrobe. If you feel like going a bit glam, we suggest you try out the modern designs.
The Nath
The nath is a symbol of femininity and grace. This nose ring, with its intricate designs and shimmering embellishments, exudes tradition.
The Maang Tikka
The Maang Tikka adds a festive touch to your ensemble. It looks good with any hairstyle and any age group. Pair it with a lehenga or saree for your Teej celebrations and stand out like a gem.
The Anklets
Teej festivities call for a lot of dance and music. Let your radiant anklets be a part of the occasion. Choose a modern design without the ghungroos for a youthful and vibrant look or a traditional and bold one as it jingles at your every move.
The Statement Earrings
Add a dash of glamour and flair to your outfit with big and bold statement earrings. Statement Jhumkas or Chaandbaalis are perfect for this occasion. We suggest you leave out the necklace to highlight the earrings.
Choker Chains
Choker chains instantly add glamour and scream festive. Whether you decide to adorn it with a saree or a suit, match the colour of the outfit with similar studded gems on your choker.
The Bangles
Bring in a melody to the celebration with bright bangles. There is a lot to choose from when it comes to bangles. You can decide to go for bold kadas in pure gold, minakari or gem-studded. If big kadas are not your style, wear an array of thin gold bangles interspersed with colourful glass bangles for a touch of vibrance.
Finally, the choice of jewellery for your Teej celebrations reflects your unique style, cultural pride, and the happy spirits of this traditional festival. Have yourselves a vibrant and cherished Teej.
