If you DON'T want to Suffocate,
DO -
The most important accessory for any saree is its blouse, which many tend to ignore. Make sure the blouse you are wearing is not too tight, else you'll suffocate in it, or if it is too lose it will look unflattering. Wear the right fit.
Remember, Choli is as important as Saree.
If You Don’t want to turn your WORLD upsidedown.
DO-
Where you tie your saree is one of the most important things while wearing one. If you tie it too high you’ll expose your petticoat and heels and if you wear it too low, you couldn’t walk without tripping from it. So tie it exactly at your belly button to avoid all these odds. :
