A while back I mentioned that I had received some Indian clothes from the coworker of my father-in-law. Last night, I set up the tripod and we took some snazzy photos (wow – that sounds so suspicious when I type it out like that).

Firstly, we have the Salwar Suit of Immense Floweryness:

Lea will be the recipient of the kameez, and I’m keeping the rest; I have a white kameez that will look good with it (and will make the flower pattern a little less overwhelming)

Next, there is the Salwar Suit of Surprisingly Well-Suited Grey and Coral:

So named because I honestly thought it would look ghastly on me, but it really doesn’t!

And then, the most intriguing of the whole batch, The Sari That Could Also Potentially Be a 1970s-Era Prom Dress:

This is also the same sari that was on the CG at the Halloween party. It looks a lot better on her.

And finally, the one that’s the best, which is the green sari with gold embroidery:

I will actually get a lot of wear out of that one, as the embroidery is tasteful and it goes pretty well with my skin tone.

Although it is not of the above gift lot, I had to share my birthday sari:

I would so totally wear this every single day, if I could. It makes me feel like a princess. I will post more photos when the blouse is done.
