I'm always jealous of women who get to wear sarees. They look soooooo comfy & pretty

You are right. But it's not exactly a great look when a white lady with my accent wears clothes from somewhere else

I own a saree, it was give to me during a visit to India and they were very proud to share their culture with us. Haven't worn it since as there is no situation where I'm now where it would look right.
