Sari's are absolutely gorgeous garments that seem so comfortable and fun to wear too!
A few friends of mine model in them from time to time in absolutely stunning beaded sari's.. I hope I'll be invited to one of their weddings so I'll get an opportunity to wear one.comment:www.metafilter.com,2011:site.107289-3914099Fri, 09 Sep 2011 15:50:42 -0800Bron-Y-AurBy: MissySedai

PRETTY! WANT!
I have a handful of saris, given to me by a friend who makes a point of bringing one back for me whenever he goes home. I pout all winter long, waiting for the weather to break, then run about in flowing silk and bare feet for most of the summer. They're the comfiest things I've ever worn.comment:www.metafilter.com,2011:site.107289-3914101Fri, 09 Sep 2011 15:53:46 -0800MissySedaiBy: Go Banana

I started wearing saris to all formal events about 10 years ago and haven't looked back. They're especially great at weddings as the flat shoes us tall girls have to wear with them are fabulous for the dance floor. I've also worn them out to clubs after formal events (impromptu late night drinks and dancing).....club bathrooms in a sari not so good.comment:www.metafilter.com,2011:site.107289-3914115Fri, 09 Sep 2011 16:10:44 -0800Go BananaBy: troll

As an American of Indian background, relatives always want to put me in saris but I refuse because they're horridly uncomfortable and odd to me, not to mention the "hey! look at my stomach!" non appeal of the little half shirt. Although, I thought it was spectacularly cool that my fashion forward English raised grandmother got married in a sari with a top with a foldover collar and buttons ( it was the 1930s and she was quite used to flapper clothes/mary janes, and this was her nod to that. ).comment:www.metafilter.com,2011:site.107289-3914444Fri, 09 Sep 2011 20:21:20 -0800sweetkidBy: bensairo

The color, materials & design just kill me. Some of these are <a href="http://sarusarees.com/collections/blue">works of art</a> (in silk, no less) and under $200.

"Yes. Something that interested us yesterday when we saw it." "Where is she?" His lodgings were situated at the lower end of the town. The accommodation consisted[Pg 64] of a small bedroom, which he shared with a fellow clerk, and a place at table with the other inmates of the house. The street was very dirty, and Mrs. Flack's house alone presented some sign of decency and respectability. It was a two-storied red brick cottage. There was no front garden, and you entered directly into a living room through a door, upon which a brass plate was fixed that bore the following announcement:¡ª The woman by her side was slowly recovering herself.

As a rule, ornament should never be carried further than graceful proportions; the arrangement of framing should follow as nearly as possible the lines of strain.

The exhibition of domestic discord and hatred in the House of Hanover had, from its first ascension of the throne, been most odious and revolting. The quarrels of the king and his son, like those of the first two Georges, had begun in Hanover, and had been imported along with them only to assume greater malignancy in foreign and richer soil. The Prince of Wales, whilst still in Germany, had formed a strong attachment to the Princess Royal of Prussia. George forbade the connection. The prince was instantly summoned to England, where he duly arrived in 1728. "But they've been arrested without due process of law.
