You are so right. Indian woman float along without the carefully arranged folds of their saris becoming displaced. I think it’s because they knew how to carry a load of their head!

The image of the girls staring out at the Arabian Sea is gorgeous. I do love the colour of the blue sari xx

That coloured sari caught my eye but so did the sari shops!!! It doesn’t take long to yearn to dress like an Indian woman when you are there.

Indian women wear saris with panache and grace- I think mine would fall off and drag in the mud!

Francesca, Indian women make me feel so ugly. When we were in India, I could not help but compare myself (loud, no makeup, short hair, jeans, tea shirt etc) with them (gorgeous coloured flowing sari, lovely long black oiled hair, graceful etc) Oh dear. What memories.

I feel the same way when in India. Even in the dusty, dirty streets or fields, Indian women look graceful, clean, elegant- they move so well, even with heavy weights on their heads. Did you venture into the sari shops? Every sari is different. I never saw anyone in the same design or colour.
