Using the sari to make a skirt is also a great way to retain your mum's prized possession and make it super wearable.

You can either use the skirt to team it up with a quirky western top or you can do a fusion and make it look trendy.

This is again something I personally did to a powder blue banarasi sari.

It's a great option for those who like it simple yet trendy but with a hint of tradition.

Look at how Sonam Kapoor is carrying it off and she looks anything but graceful and trendy.

You can team this jacket with nice chunky earrings that could either be traditional or even modern.

They are currently in fashion so this it right time to create some haute palazzos!

You can team them with noodle strap crop tops or even with long kurtis.

Not only are they comfortable, but they also add an extra oomph factor to your outfit.

As they say, last but not the least. You can use the old silk sari to turn them into accessories like shoes or jewellery or even purses.

We personally loved how designer Gaurang Shah has used the cloth material on a shoe to make it look vintage and classic.

If you are fond of DIY (do it yourself), jewellery could be the easiest you can work with along with purses that you can also design at home.
