Vidya Balan was in attendance at a book launch event held in Mumbai yesterday. Her choice of outfit was a cream  & Pink floral print silk saree from Picchika that she paired with a matching blouse. 

 Amrapali bracelet and a Jaipur Watch Company's watch and casually tousled hair added finishing touches to her look.

The actress complemented her desi avatar with a pearl necklace and pink lipstick.

The silk printed saree is so adorable on her, but I wish she had ditched the pearls.
