There is also a belief that, buying gold on this special day gives more happiness throughout the year. Hence, this is the only occasion for the women folks to demand their husbands, brothers or parents to get them gold.

If you are one among such person, who have religious belief and has a great interest and an urge to buy some awesome earrings, necklace, Bangles & jewellery box, etc. on this day, you can move either to your local stores or buy them online.

I posted my Indian style ideas and suggestions that help others try something new and to have fun in their clothes, regardless of Size. I generally disagree with the fashion standards of most people and do not believe in wearing clothes that fit your body shape.
