The word ‘pyjama’ traces its etymological origin to the Persian word ‘payjama’, meaning ‘leg garment’. However, it was first incorporated into English from the Hindustani language. During the seventeenth century, British men wore pyjamas as casual attires while relaxing, until they became outmoded. They soon gained ground in the west during the colonial era, and became popular as sleepwear, with designs inspired from similar traditional Indian and Persian garments. In India, pyjamas comprised of important clothing items of women and Sikh men. In addition, with the adoption of pajamas by Englishmen, their popularity soon perforated all across the globe.

Even if a particular fashion isn't all that comfortable millions of women will wear it simply because it's considered fashionable. Victorian times promoted the hourglass figure causing women everywhere to wear tight corsets. Some women wore the corsets so tight that in doing so, they often broke ribs. Would you agree with this? :)

Initially, only one ring was used for an engagement and a wedding. Then in 1477, Maximilian of Austria gave an engagement ring to his beloved, Mary of Burgundy starting a tradition.

Have you heard about the hula-hoop beach bag? Like?

For his latest Chanel collection Karl Lagerfeld created a bag we didn't even realise there was a need for. Until now.

What's the difference between a bonnet, a cap, and a hat? The bonnet has no brim at the back and is usually tied under the chin. The cap fits closely to the head and doesn't have a brim, but it may have a visor. Hats vary in shape they may or may not have a brim, but they are usually grander than caps.

Always have a classic white button-down in your wardrobe. Dress them down with jeans or dress it up with a skirt.

Green is the easiest color on the eye. Hospital uniforms may be green because the color relaxes patients. Green is also associated with nature. The brides in Europe in the Middle Ages wore green to symbolize fertility.

The term “haute couture” is French. Haute means “high” or “elegant.” Couture literally means “sewing,” but has come to indicate the business of designing, creating, and selling custom-made, high fashion women's clothes.
