* Bags: Gift your sister an elegant, silk tote bag that is useful and beautiful. Baguette and satchel bags are also taking the fashion world by storm. Make sure to do your research before picking a bag for your sister. If she is a working woman, gift her a bag that is large enough to hold the essentials.

* Scarves: Scarves are a timeless accessory that can transform even the most boring outfit into an eye-catching one. Since the floral trend is going strong, you can gift a floral-printed scarf. If your sister has a bold sense of fashion, pick a scarf with animal prints. Headscarves are also a great choice since they are in vogue.

* Junk jewellery: Junk jewellery can be a great pick for Rakhi. Junk jewellery can be paired with western and ethnic outfits. You can pick neckpieces, rings, anklets, and bracelets in different sizes and designs. If your sister has a flair for fashion, she will definitely cherish the gift.
