The festival brings with it with the aromas of fresh henna and traditional songs creating an ideal chance to find your most elegant self. For the unversed, Hartalika Teej presents a beautiful celebration which focuses on women's devotion and love while honouring feminine grace.

The celebration of Hartalika Teej extends past religious devotion because it reflects womanhood through traditional clothing, elaborate mehndi designs and classic jewellery pieces. Indian jewellery is the perfect choice for Teej because this occasion demands your finest traditional pieces. This styling guide will help you select traditional Indian jewellery that matches perfectly with your teej outfit and makes your look phenomenal.
Let’s decode the perfect Teej look, from head to toe.
THE STATEMENT STARTER: THE NECKLACE
Your collarbones are the first place where eyes focus. Different necklace styles can enhance your neckline depending on your outfit:
a. Antique Necklace Set for Regal Vibes
When choosing to wear traditional silk or Banarasi sarees you should enhance them with bold antique necklace sets that deliver heritage elegance. Temple motifs with goddess carvings or peacock engravings make perfect choices during Teej celebrations since they bring good fortune.
Pair it with antique bangles and a sleek low bun to channel South Indian elegance. Bonus points if your saree has zari borders to match the golden finish of your necklace.
b. Kundan Necklace for North Indian Opulence
Traditional outfits with elaborate embroidery such as lehenga or Anarkali look best with Kundan necklaces to create a perfect match for Teej celebrations. Their intricate design and rich finish are perfect for a day filled with rituals and photographs.
A Kundan choker necklace suits deep necklines while a long necklace set work well with boat-neck blouses. The soft shimmer of Kundan stones complements the green and red palette of Teej wonderfully.
c. CZ Choker Necklace for a Contemporary Touch
Do you want to incorporate modern elements into your traditional outfit? A CZ choker necklace is the way to go. These pieces add glamour to your outfit without overwhelming your look.
Choose a CZ necklace set for an elegant and chic look if you plan to wear a light cotton or georgette saree. We have exquisite floral and geometric CZ chokers that blend perfectly with Teej fusion styles.
THE POWER PAIR: EARRINGS TO ELEVATE YOUR LOOK
No traditional Indian jewellery set is complete without the right earrings, especially when hair is swept back to reveal their full beauty.
Jhumka Earrings: Forever Festive
The jhumka earring represents traditional Indian celebrations better than any other earring design. These earrings create an irresistible charm especially when you twirl and dance to classical folk music.
Go for antique jhumka earrings with hanging ghungroos or kundan-studded ones for a richer look. Women who wear heavy necklaces should choose medium-sized jhumkas to maintain visual balance. Choose dramatic shoulder-duster jhumkas and steal the show if you decide not to wear a neckpiece.
ARM CANDY: BANGLES THAT TELL STORIES
The ritual of clinking bangles is as iconic as the Teej song itself. Your mehendi-adorned hands deserve bangles that shine in harmony with tradition.
Antique Bangles for Heritage Glam
Go for antique bangles in dull gold tones to complement your Anarkali or Farshi salwar suit. Their sculpted motifs and temple-style details add an old-world charm that’s perfectly in sync with the spirit of Teej.
You can stack them together or pair glass bangles in red and green for a festive look. Consider having a minimalist look that includes a pair of thick kadas with intricate carvings on each hand. It will deliver both classic and modern fashion.
DON’T FORGET THE DETAILS: RINGS, HAIR ACCESSORIES & MORE
Teej dressing is all about those little accessories that make a big impact.
Finger Rings with Character
Choose one or two statement rings. We suggest a cocktail ring with a Kundan centrepiece or antique floral design. It adds that finishing touch to your look without stealing attention from the rest of your jewellery.
Maang Tikka & Hair Accessories
Add a maang tikka or a passa if you're going all out for the occasion. Our antique and CZ tikkas have versatile designs that suit both traditional and Indo-western outfits. You can also tuck in a bejewelled hair pin or gajra for the divine goddess aura.
STYLING TIPS FOR A PICTURE-PERFECT TEEJ LOOK
Go Monochrome with Contrast Jewellery: A green outfit paired with antique gold jewelry gives an eternal appearance. Add a red bindi for an angelic look.
Balance Heavy Jewellery: Skip the necklace if your earrings are the main attraction. Keep the earrings subtle if you wear a bold necklace.
Use Dupatta Draping to Frame Jewellery: The placement of your dupatta should emphasize your neckpiece or earrings to create the most dramatic effect in photographs.
Choose Lightweight Pieces for Fasting Days: You should pick lightweight Indian jewellery when fasting. Such jewellery pieces offer both comfort and shine.
