Gold prices are soaring faster than a hit song racing up the charts!
But relax -- you don’t need a locker full of it to shine.
Think about your wardrobe instead. Think shimmery saris and blingy fits that scream drama without burning a hole in your pocket. After all, all that glitters may not be gold but it’s definitely glam.
Let’s take inspiration from Bollywood and look like asli sona this festive and wedding season.
