The beating of dhaak, dhunuchi naach, anjali, lotus lamps, vermillion and scrumptious Bengali delicacies! Durga puja is truly unlike any other festival. But one thing that fascinates me (and a lot of us) is the white and red lal paar saree! Everywhere you look, women dress up to the nines in varieties of red and white sarees. But not everyone can wear a saree for Durga puja, especially if you are working or simply can’t handle the six-yard elegance all day long. We at LBB bring you white and red outfits that you can flaunt on Durga puja instead of a saree.
