Everytime I get someone's site to the first page - there's nothing like it! May sound crazy, but I take my client's sites very seriously.

I do have one more spot open - I usually do two clients at a time and just now finished their sites. If you want to check my site out - it's Professional SEO Services Columbus Ohio - SEM or Search Engine Marketing Columbus Ohio - Social Networking

Best described, its a game of hide and seek between the sensuous brown skin and a colourful piece of cloth. But itll be incomplete to look at Saree as just a piece of clothing and without its adorner. Its a reflection of everything that a woman is; its a mouthpiece of every mood and mode of the Indian woman.

The red saree is the shy and anxious bride, the white cotton is the sad but never down woman, the soft silk falling off the shoulders is the sensuousness, the white starched and stiff is the feminist, the one tightly tied across the waist is the aggression, and the black designer is the announcement of arrival.

According to Wikipedia, the word Saree has evolved from the Prakrit word ’sattika’ as mentioned in earliest Jain Buddhist literature. Saree has been an integral part of the Indian women wardrobe, with its root dating back to the Indus Valley Civilization. From the endless drape of Draupadi in Mahabharata to the wet and wild saree in Satyam Shivam Sundaram to the latest Manish Malhotra collection that set the ramps afire worldwide, the basic Indian attire has come a long way. From Banarasi to Kanjivaram it will not be wrong to say that this 5 meter cloth is something that runs across India and like a river, branches out at points and feeds every woman with a compliment of her beauty.

But making a rectangular piece of cloth into a heart stopping attire is an art itself, the art of draping the Saree — a tedious process thoroughly enjoyed by the woman as a celebration of her beauty. On the most basic level, the saree is first wrapped around the waist, then slender plates of the continual cloth are carefully tucked at the waist giving it the flow and then the cloth slithers around the waist and covers the torso as it rests on the shoulder. The diversified culture in the Indian subcontinent has resulted in the trend of different draping styles of Sarees followed in different regions.

Over the years, the Saree has also become a canvas for the folk artists of India. Each state and region has its artists flaunting their skills and art on this canvas, from bandhej/bandhani (tie and dye) to delicate embroidery also done with real gold and silver threads to the minimalistic white and red saree. The patterns, the colours, and the variety are overwhelming. Add silver/golden thread work to a simple cotton or silk saree and you get a fancy Zari Saree perfect for a marriage or similar occasion. Add pearls and precious stones and you get a stylish Zardozi Saree, embroidery sarees. And as the western world and the Indian culture fuses with the shrinking and new surfacing of newer technologies everyday, its very common to see Sarees of Italian Crepe and georgette which were earlier unknown to the Indian women, but now hugely popular.

Whats overwhelming is that over the decades, each region in the Indian subcontinent has developed its own unique saree style based on the fabric or the weaving style. Some of the most popular types of Sarees are Kantha (West Bengal), Cuttacki Pata Silk & Cotton (Orissa), Paithani (Maharashtra), Bandhani (Gujarat and Rajasthan), Kota doria (Rajasthan), Chanderi (Madhya Pradesh), Maheshwari (Madhya Pradesh), Kosa silk (Chattisgarh), Lugade (Maharashtra), Mysore Silk (Karnataka), and Kanjivaram (Tamil Nadu).

So, be it mourning of the deceased or the bringing in of a new member, no Indian occasion is complete without the women of the house draping themselves in a beautiful and apt saree for the occasion. And the Saree is undoubtedly the essential shadow of an Indian woman as her bindi and strength.

Avoid unsupportive spaghetti straps and plunging necklines that accentuate your cleavage.
