Hi n swathy : which way of tying saree do you like? I like the normal south indian style - left shoulder mundhaanai and nowadays, i prefer to let go the mundhaanai, instead of pinning the pleats up!
I also like the Gujerati style... :D
I like normal.. south india style too....:D .. i don't like to pin as wellQuote:
