Cute Radha outfit ideas for your baby girl this Janmashtami
Little girls look undoubtedly adorable in mini outfits along with those innocent eyes. This is truly a great way to introduce them to their cultural heritage and the stories of Radha and Krishna. So, here we have listed some of the best Janmashtami outfit ideas for little ones.
1. Lehenga and choli
The traditional lehenga and choli ensemble is the best outfit for the occasion. Opt for bright shades like orange, yellow, red, pink or blue. Ensure the mini outfit is comfortable for your child and let them move freely.
2. Dupatta
Drape the dupatta gracefully over the head or shoulder to complement the traditional look. Use a beautiful, studded pin to keep it in place while your child plays or dances.
3. Floral garland
Radha loved flowers and was often seen holding a pot. Decorate your child’s hair with a fresh and fragrant floral garland, and give her a beautiful earthen pot with traditional artwork to hold.
4. Ornaments
Traditional ornaments such as mang tikka, nose pin, earrings, necklaces, bangles and anklets finish the Radha look. Choose lightweight pieces for your child’s comfort.
5. Makeup and bindi
Apply basic skin care products like moisturiser and powder to avoid the chemicals of heavy makeup on the sensitive skin of the child. Add a tiny bindi on the forehead and dots above the eyebrows. Mini floral patterns on the cheeks, mehendi designs on the back of the hand on feet add more beauty to the look.
As you dress up your adorable baby girl in the cute Radha outfit, flaunt it everywhere with pride and enjoy the festivity.
