In Your Dreams Bindis

In Your Dreams Bindis

Wow.. these are some of the prettiest Bindis that I’ve seen (although I have to say, I’m no Bindi expert). In Your Dreams has a range of temporary tattoos and bindis so you can mix up your body art – I’m thinking more of the coloured foil tattoos that are around at the moment (I showed you Flash Tattoos last week) that lend themselves to adding extra.

I love the simple foil chains on this sheet that mean you could add bindis or elements of to make some gorgeous temporary jewellery. If it was a real thing, I’d probably buy that bracelet!

What I like about this brand is that they’re affordable (tattoo sheets are £5, and Bindis are around that price as well) so it’s not going to break the bank to experiement with different looks. All very well to say as I’m staring at drizzle – in June – but I think I can see that when the sun hits all the different elements of the tattoos and the bindis, it will be something special. You can find In Your Dreams HERE (all on pre-order until the July 5th launch).

    Bindi’s aren’t a cool festival or fashion accessory, they have meaning. They have religious and cultural significance for people.

      Yes, I do understand that – and actually I thought twice about posting it but I think I maybe shouldn’t have called them Bindis because what these version are, if you look on the site, more extreme versions that to me are more like body jewellery. However, they’re called Bindis on the site. It’s maybe the same as the cross being adopted as a fashion accessory and hands of Hamza etc.. even the Greek ‘evil eye’ has been translated to fashion, but I do take your point and I’m sorry if it’s caused any offence. Thinking about it, it might have made more sense – and be less offensive to religious sensitivities – if the brand called them body jewellery and didn’t take their reference from the actual Bindi.

        Thanks for your reply. I don’t think calling them something else will change the fact that they are bindis, and people will wear them that way thinking it’s ok. I personally would never wear a cross or Hamza hand for the same reason.
        The site isn’t great – it includes bindis in a list of ’embellishments’, and makes it sound like they invented them (not offensive at all!), even though some of them are nothing special.
        If people feel like they just have to wear them, at least buy them for £2 from a South Asian shop if accessible, rather than get ripped off and put money into these peoples hands.

        At the end of the day there are more important issues going on in the world, but I still think it’s worth commenting so more people understand the other perspective.

          I think it’s very much worth putting your perspective – thank you so much for doing it. x

    I can see you’ve had a couple of comments regarding the use of Bindi’s in fashion already and I have to admit although these are so pretty I would feel uncomfortable wearing them for fashion when they hold religious significance to others. Although on the other hand I also think people should be able to wear whatever they want without being told they shouldn’t be wearing it because of somebody else’s religious beliefs. It’s a difficult one x
