What a wonderful opportunity, Cyan.

Here's a list of Indian clothing stores in the Bay Area. You might need to do some googling to see what's available.</p> <p><a href="http://www.thingsindian.com/apparel.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.thingsindian.com/apparel.htm</a></p> <p>I've taken friends shopping on University in Berkeley, which is a good place since there are so many stores right next to each other.</p> <p>Remember that you can always bargain if you are comfortable. In order to know the right price, you can look up some clothes online to get a feel for it. If you buy more than one item or pay in cash (since it saves credit card fees), you'll get a better discount.</p> <p>I think I got a 20% discount with my mediocre skills but I'm certain my mom would have been able to do 30% or better. Start at 20% but realistically you may only end up with 10% or nothing. Once you've selected what you like, the magic phrase is to request that they "make the price right". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-wear-what-to-bring-diwali-party-next-week#post-450841 Mon, 24 Oct 2011 05:23:03 +0000 catgirl 450841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did you find anything? Diwali just started... Anything dressy and festive would be fine. This is your chance to bring out your sparkly items of clothing and jewelry - modesty is good, but other than that, bring on the bling! It's the Indian New Year, so think of what you'd wear for the holidays. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-to-wear-what-to-bring-diwali-party-next-week#post-449640 Sat, 22 Oct 2011 02:02:50 +0000 cyan45 449640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>the mother of one of my piano students just invited my fiance and i to join them for a<br /> family/neighborhood diwali celebration (aka festival of lights). the family is<br /> from india and the mother deepa was so kind to extend the invitation when i expressed interest in learning more about the holiday.</p> <p>i'd like to find stores in the bay area (san jose, etc...) that sell silky kurti/tunics to wear with my black pants and heels/metallic sandals. does anyone know where of any in this area?</p> <p>any tips would be such a relief! thank you very much </p>
