That sacred knot -

Posted by Glam Insider on 15th March, 2011

Unanimously across our country, there is only one single-most significant aspect that authenticates marriage for a newly wed bride; it's that invaluable thread of black. It's only when the mangalsutra slips into the girl's neck that the tears flow to signify her as 'wedded'. Most women eagerly keep that string close to their neck soon after the pheras only to conveniently discard it as time passes by. Why that is, is because of traditional patterns having them to donne on really heavy and typically designed mangalsutras that aren't too suitable and convenient to wear in daily life.

PNG and its priceless association with 'holy matrimony' has had us rack our creative cells to design these mangalsutras for every woman, because this Indian tradition has now extended itself all over the world. Now the recently married women are seen preening in the chunky versions since a old-fashioned heavy mangalsutra is much needed and an evergreen favorite on the wedding day. But once you rejoin the corporate world it's impossible to keep that hanging on, hence our dainty diamond designs are perfect that go with your formal attire yet lending you a traditional touch.

You can never have too many types of a mangalsutra; a thick chained with a few black beads woven in finished by a obvious diamond pendant is a great accessory for special occasions like weddings, poojas etc...,while a simple black-beaded gold thread can act as an alternative for the one just in the mommy way, when a heavier on becomes impossible to handle with a baby.

Even though the sanctity of a mangalsutra is more emotional than anything else it's impossible for fashion not to intervene, hence be practical about the kind of mangalsutra you purchase and it's always best if you keep a variety of them handy, after all it is prime piece of jewelry for any married girl.
