Nothing says desi girl quite like a beautiful maang tikka. The hairline draping accessory is worn for prime days like weddings and festivals so Diwali's a good time to break yours out. Being elaborate and statement-making, once you wear a maang tikka you won't need any other accessories with your lehenga.

3. Head scarf

Ladies who are up for a bohemian twist to your Indian wear, this one's for you. A printed head scarf will add depth to any hairstyle, even if you choose to leave your tresses flowing. Wrap it around the crown of your hair or tie it turban style for a truly Indian touch.

We're more than well acquainted to the hair band but what happens when you reverse it? A lot of hairstyle magic, that's what! With the base of a low updo hairstyle, slip an inverted hair band or comb in your hair and watch it get an embellished upgrade.

5. Hair pins

If you're the kind of girl who wants results without the fuss of styling, try dainty hair pins. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes with embellishments like metal pins and gemstones. Once you slip it into even the simplest bob, you're sure to see a more effortlessly stylish hairdo.
