I'm inspired by all different global styles, and love incorporating ethnic pieces into my everyday outfits. I have a lot of South Asian and Pakistani clothes in my closet because of my personal cultural heritage.
The pieces are so beautiful, but I can usually only wear them on special cultural occasions. So I've set out to make them wearable in any outfit, any occasion.

That's where the "Repurposing Ethnic Pieces" series comes in. You can check out previous posts in this series (Parts 1, 2, and 3) here, here and here.

Here, I take a traditional Pakistani lehenga choli and wear the choli as a short embellished vest over an everyday black shift dress.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and comments below! What do you think about repurposing ethnic pieces for a more versatile, everyday look? Would you try it out?
