Traditional Captions: Sassy Lehenga Quotes for Instagram
Let’s start with every Indian girl’s favorite attire (other than saree, of course!) – the lehenga! Lehenga is the perfect Indian attire for weddings, fancy parties, sangeet nights and religious ceremonies. Personally, I love wearing lehengas, and taking pictures in them. So it’s obvious that I made so many Indian outfit quotes that you can use for your lehenga selfies or OOTDs.
Well, I use lehenga in these quotes, but really, you can replace that with some other ethnic outfit and a lot of these captions will still work as traditional outfit captions for Instagram. So check them out!
This is my favorite traditional dress caption!
1. I may not know how to make an aloo paratha, but I can certainly rock a lehenga like a pro!
2. I like my money where I can see it. Hanging around my waist!
3. Tomorrow, the lehenga will come off and I’ll be back to my usual, nerdy self in an extra-large teeshirt and glasses. But until then, let me feel like a well-put together, royal Indian princess!
