Monsoon wear: Cargos for guys, Patialas for girls

The monsoons have arrived ending the long summer vacations. With this another season of studies has begun for college students too. Freshers are all set make an impression on their seniors with new and trendy outfits they have been shopping for long.

This year the Patiala salwaarkameez is back in fashion and many college girls are seen sporting it. The look is totally Indian and girls are seen wearing colourful embroidered Patialas with flat Nagra chappals at various city colleges.

Anju Narang, third year student from St. Francis college says, "This year the trend is towards wearing ‘mix and match' outfits. The flat silver and golden coloured chappals go very well with the patialas. This along with beaded jewellery and a traditional sequined jhola completes the look." The look might be Indian but the craze for western outfits never declines. Jeans is considered the most comfortable attire for all seasons.

Nitya Jalan, a final year Mass Com student from St Mary opines, "Girls in our college usually wear short and trendy kurtis with capris or jeans. The sling bags or large clutch bags go really well with it."

It's not just girls but guys too are ready with cool Tees and funky accessories to go with it. Kush Vazir, a second year student of Bhavan's Degree College says, "Guys are usually comfortable in low waist blue jeans with a cool T shirt. Fashion conscious guys are heavily into leather bands and cool pendants. While girls love large clutch bags, guys opt for small and peppy denim bags."

A student from Bharat Engineering College says, "We wear mostly cargos and T-shirts. Guys usually wear branded sport shoes and sneakers but a few also like wearing Jhodpuri sandals. Smart branded watches too appeal to the girls so most of the guys wear them."
