How to dress up stylish yet comfortable for the Holi festival?

Holi is that time of the year which gives our hearts a rush of happiness. It is the most fun festival in India, mainly because of two main reasons. The first one is that with the onset of Holi, we come out of those layers of sweaters and jackets and can finally enjoy the beautiful spring; and the second is the joy of celebrating this festival with your friends and family with lots of good food and music. 

We have always seen white clothes as the customary shade worn on the day of holi, but fashion doesn’t follow any rules! In 2023, colours will also be a part of women’s holi outfits.

   Since you'll be running around and playing with colors, it's important to wear comfortable shoes that allow you to move freely. You can wear sneakers or sandals that are easy to clean. 
   

5. Keep your hair tied up:

   It's best to tie up your hair to avoid getting colors in your hair. You can tie your hair in a ponytail, bun, or braid. You can also use a bandana or scarf to cover your hair.  

6. Use minimal makeup:

   It's best to use minimal makeup on Holi, as the colors will ruin your makeup. Also, the skin will not be safe if you apply holi colours over makeup. Instead, nourish your skin with oil and sunscreen properly. You must also apply some waterproof mascara and lip balm if you wish. 

7. Wear sunglasses:

   To protect your eyes from the colors, it's best to wear sunglasses. You can also wear a hat or cap to protect your face from the sun.
