Summer, for one, is a time of relaxation. I fail to see how people can relax in chooridaars which are utterly uncomfortable. Fashion or not, comfort is all that matters. Having said that, bringing back the good old shalwar is the case I am pleading here.
Quelotts. Capris. Pants. Chooridaars. Doesn’t matter if you are out shopping your wallet out in liberty market or wasting your energy with your not-so-good old Darzi; all you see people wearing and talking and recommending is trousers or capris or chooridaars. Why? I, for one, have had enough of this rat race to see who is following the latest trend by wearing what Vaneeza adorns in her lawn exhibition; no matter how uncomfortable they are.
Summer, for one, is a time of relaxation. I fail to see how people can relax in chooridaars which are utterly uncomfortable. Fashion or not, comfort is all that matters. Having said that, bringing back the good old shalwar is the case I am pleading here. There was a time when your darzi always assumed that if you are giving him a suit to stitch, it meant shalwar kameez. Not trousers, not chooridaars, and definitely not capris. Oh the horror I had to go through when I handed over a suit to master sahib and without even asking me he started noting the design of the suit as a kameez and a trouser. Painstakingly, I had to stop him and tell him that I want a shalwar made out of this one, thank you very much. And the looks! Oh, the looks. Imagine if my master is giving me the killer looks just because I told him to stitch me a shalwar, the world out there would be oh-so-glad to kill me for committing such a fashion crime.
But I don’t care. It’s about time I see women wearing shalwars around the city, and not just old ladies, but young ones too. There’s a reason it’s our national dress. It’s the most comfortable attire in the scorching summer of Pakistan. Last but definitely not least, I salute Nishat Linen for introducing shalwars in the first edition of their summer collection magazine. Truly made my day! Oh the happiness when I shoved the magazine in master sahab’s face and told him to stitch me a shalwar just like the one Mahnoor Baloch was wearing. Epic!

Trend of Chandi Instead of Gold
Precious metals have always been a love of life for every woman. Jewelry made of metal has been in use for centuries. Many metals lost their value with the passage of time while others gained a lot more value and admiration through ages.
Gold and silver jewelry have always been a part of Pakistani jewelry trend. However, over the past couple of years, gold appreciated so much that it went out of reach of the lower and middle class of Pakistan. But silver jewelry, though appreciated as well, is still in the reach and has gained more admiration in the masses and has become the latest jewelry trend these days.
Silver jewelry has its own sophistication and elegance that cannot match any other metal. In Pakistani jewelry trend, the best thing about silver jewelry is that it goes with just about everything. It looks great with casual clothes, but it gives an incredible look when worn formally as well. It is available in all the cuts and designs of the latest jewelry trend.
Silver jewelry is more popular in young girls than the older women. Beautiful earrings, rings and bracelets are on top of the list when it comes to buying the silver jewelry. In Pakistani latest jewelry trends, silver jewelry with gems and stones is becoming popular and looks just glamorous and sophisticated.
People like to buy small tops and drop earrings in silver jewelry, because they look very elegant and beautiful. In Pakistani jewelry trends, silver jewelry bangles and bracelets are becoming even more popular as a latest trend among young girls on formal occasions.
Although silver jewelry has no match to any other metal, silver jewelry needs more care and maintenance than other metals. It has a tendency to tarnish and scratches, so it has to look after carefully to keep it safe and shinning.
