Navratri Day 5: 7 Celebrity-Inspired Yellow Outfits To Wear For Pooja And Garba

Day 5 is yellow day, and honestly it's one of the easiest colours to pull off for Navratri. Not too loud, looks good on everyone, and it photographs really well too. If you haven't picked your outfit yet, take some inspo from these celebrity looks - from pastel anarkalis to full-blown mirror-work shararas.

Why Do We Wear Yellow On Day 5 Of Navratri?

There are two reasons behind it. The Navratri colours follow the weekdays, and Thursday is connected to Jupiter, whose colour is yellow. Day 5 is also for Goddess Skandamata - Kartikeya's mother who stands for warmth and motherly love. So yellow is worn for positivity, brightness and good energy.

7 Celebrity-Inspired Yellow Outfits To Wear For Pooja And Garba

Yellow is the colour of Navratri Day 5. Check out sarees, shararas and more inspired by your favourite celebs, and find out why this shade is special.

1. The Pastel Yellow Anarkali 

That soft, butter-yellow anarkali with the fitted embroidered choli and flowy skirt. The pink border at the bottom is such a nice detail, and that sheer dupatta with gold edging just ties it together. Add some tassel earrings and juttis and you're sorted for a morning pooja.

2. The Printed Yellow Saree 

A mustard yellow saree with tiny red and purple flowers. It's not your usual plain festive saree. The sleeveless blouse with that high, jewelled neckline is already statement enough so you don't even need a necklace. Just a bun and a gold cuff, done.

3. The Mirror-Work Sharara 

If you're going for garba, this is it. Sleeveless kurta fully covered in mirror work, flared sharara, shiny dupatta catching light every time you spin. Pair it with big chandbalis and keep your hair sleek.

4. The Bright Yellow Dress With A Jacket 

Don't want to wear Indian? Try a breezy yellow maxi dress with that mirror-work jacket on top. Throw in a colourful pom-pom potli and stacked bangles. It's comfy and still festive.

5. The Lemon Silk Saree With A Pink Blouse

This combo never fails. A light lemon silk saree with a hot pink blouse. Add green kundan earrings and red bangles - colourful, but not OTT. Perfect for temple or evening aarti.

6. The Yellow Pleated Skirt With A White Blazer 

If you have office on Day 5, you don't need to wear a lehenga. A flowy yellow pleated skirt with a white cropped blazer looks smart and you can go straight to pooja after work.

7. The Yellow Chikankari Kurta

The easiest one. A soft yellow kurta with white chikankari all over. It's light, breathable, and you can wear it all day without feeling uncomfortable. Just small jhumkas and open hair.

Conclusion

Yellow is one of the simplest colours to wear on a festive day, and Day 5 is the perfect day to flaunt your favorite yellow outfit. This colour really doesn't need much styling. Pick what you are comfortable dancing, sitting, and eating in because Navratri is a long day.
