Ever walked past a wedding guest and seen something totally alien looking on their head and go "WHATS THAT". Well, relax it doesn't bite (though some of them look like they would) - its only the new age , offbeat jewellery that is taking the wedding world by storm people.
We are here to give your accessory box a little twist. It's time to put your usual chandbali's and kundan mangtika's on hold and make a bold statement with these edgy and offbeat jewelery ideas!
Ear Cuffs
They've been around for a while but are mostly associated with western outfits. But if you scout around a little, you'll come across a variety of ear cuffs that are just as good to wear with your anarkali's and saree's as well.

Chunky Mangtikka's
Head pieces are so much more elaborate now. Big and chunky and very stylish, you've got to be very sure before picking them up, cause it's not something everyone can carry off!
If you've been following the fashion scene closely, you've probably noticed the Mohawk Mangtikka all over the ramp! Think Tarun Tahiliani, Sonakshi Sinha, Anju Modi, it's such a rage! Time you try out one on yourself!

Body Chains
Yes! They are totally the in thing right now! So you no longer have to worry if your outfit looks too plain or simple, all you've got to do is slip into a body chain and it'll add all the glam to an otherwise dull outfit. Plus they also guarantee a lot of eye's on you!
