I am getting ready to head out with my girlfriends to explore the mews of london, my outfit is well itched in my mind and i am really excited to put it on. Take my blouse out and after admiring it for sometime i look for my black jeans, can’t find it, i look again, its not there. I take a moment to assess what happened to my black denim and realize that i had actually not brought it with me to London because i had to replace my fading black pair with a new purchase from Topshop. My outfit comes crashing all the excitement of rocking my imagined outfit is replaced with oh no, what the hell!!! I don’t have the time to make a quick visit to the stores so in despair i look into my available bottoms options. I love all of them but just not with this stunning blouse so half heartedly i pick on this embroidered pair, put it on and out the door.
I meet my girlfriends and of course my morning horror story starts. No sympathy for not having my black jeans instead they tell me they are really glad that i dint have it. Yes they agree its a little beyond my style but i am looking very high fashion and i have actually done a great job at choosing a floral embroidered pair with a floral blouse. Similarities. That’s when i realize that sometimes instinct works better than conscience, because i just instinctively decided to wear this jeans. Also realize yet again that i should take advice from my friends more often, because so many times we are actually just seeking for their opinion, but fail to reach out to them, and friends don't let friends wear bad outfits, so obviously they give the right advice. And this is exactly what happened with me that day. I was so glad after their reaction and i too actually believed that the outfit was pretty unique and high fashion. My excitement for the outfit was back again, it got me compliments throughout the day and i also went ahead and shot the look.
So the credits go to my friends who understand my style and give me the right opinion and of course philistine, the brand this top belongs to. Its a new york based brand that ships globally. Philistine meaning a person who is indifferent to art and culture and that is a huge compliment in todays time. I like to think of myself as one and their clothes symbolize it in the best way. this moscow princess top made in cotton got me compliments from absolute strangers and i couldn't be more proud, check them out and see how distinct and fab their collection is.
What i wore- TOP- Philistine, Denim- Missguided, Shoes- Zara (similar)

London ah London the uber multicultural and forever busy capital known for its tall victorian houses and grand boulevards has so many surprises. Streets where you step foot and wonder is this really London? I am talking about the charming mews of London. If you haven’t walked around to explore in the great city you probably don’t even know what they are and where do they exist. The charming cobbled mews streets are tucked behind the victorian houses, originally constructed as service lanes providing back entrance to the mansions and stables for horses, today the mews have transformed into some of the most sought after properties in London. Quaint and charactery, very rightly many famous people have chosen to live in the mews. Also seen in tv shows and movies representing London and Victorian times. Painted in pastels and framed by lush creepers and pot plants you really have to wander around and when you do be ready to be transported to another time and place.
London has many charming mews scattered and this sunday me with my girlfriends went wandering around 10 in west London. While i would say all had their unique characters but 6 stole my instagram heart and they totally deserve to be on the list of the cutest streets of London.
- Albion mews - Lush green, we entered and were instantly transported to somewhere in the amazon. Nearest tube- marble arch.
2. Bathurst mews- Extremely pretty cobbled mews, also famous for the last two riding schools in central London. Nearest tube- Edgware Road.
3. Conduit mews- The prettiest pink and blue house together. Nearest tube- Queensway
4. Kynance mews- The iconic Kynance arch best photographed in spring with the wisteria and in autumn with the red leaves. Nearest tube- Gloucester Road.
5. St lukes mews- Where the movie ‘love actually’ was shot. Keira knightley’s house as shown in the movie is just as pretty in real life. Nearest tube- Westbourne park.
6. Holland park mews- Staircases leading to the second floor making it unique and very photo worthy. Nearest tube- Holland park.
Even though i have mentioned different tube stations its really possible to do all the 6 on foot in about 2-3 hours, pretty close to each other. So do wander around and make your own discoveries around the mews and be charmed.

Any travel plans to the big city london? Have you wandered in the mews, which one is your fav? As always i hope this post is helpful, thank you for stopping by, see you with my next.

No matter where you live and what you do, one item of clothing that will be found in your wardrobe is a pair of denim. For a few years the denim styles had stagnated and the skinny jeans ruled but since last year there have been quite a few ‘fresh trends’ and i have to say that although i was a bit apprehensive at the start i haven’t touched my skinny jeans, with the exception of my white skinny, which is only due to the fact that i only have one white jeans and that happens to be a skinny, for almost a year now! Yes and i loved skinny jeans, just goes to say how great the latest denim trends are. And today i am putting the top jeans trends for 2017.
- The embroidered jeans- i start with the embroidered because i am literally obsessed. Already own 3 pairs!!!! I much prefer flowers and leaves on my jeans than my blouse, and i know lot of you do too. So yes this one is perfect for us and If you are the colorful type go all out and pair it with an embroidered top.
2. Straight leg jeans- This one is closely cut but not snug to your legs. It is also the style that you see all the top bloggers of the world rocking.
3. The step hem jeans- Raw hems that are shorter in the front and longer at the back or shorter in the inner side and longer at the outer. Very fashionable but not fussy and very fresh. Great to show ur fancy footwear and also easy to diy.
4. Two tone denim- The two tones can be either slightly different from each other or majorly different, i prefer the one with slightly different tones and not majorly different as it is more versatile and hence easy to wear.
5. Pearls on denim- Its really huge at the moment, i mean if you are anywhere close to fashion you have this one. Instagram is full of it Thanks to ZARA, ASOS and TOPSHOP.

6. Fringed edges- This one is super easy to diy as well, choose an old pair that you have been done with, watch a couple of youtube videos on how to diy fringed denim, they are super easy to follow and tadaaa.
7. Mom Jeans- Have been around for quite sometime and going strong. Ripped versions of the mom jeans are supper trendy at the moment.

All of a sudden i see red everywhere, not even a day goes by when i dont see a red look on social media. From the catwalks of aw 17 it was clear red will be huge for aw 17 and i think the red effect has spilled over to ss 17.
The red dress in various styles is the most red hot and i am really glad i spotted this slip style floral dress at H&M while shopping for my greece trip. Ah it was just perfection. Had initially planned to wear it in Santorini our second stop in greece but seeing all the gorgeous flowers in Mykonos i got tempted to wear it on our second day.
How to wear red
1. Since its such a bold colour breaking it with a pattern makes it more easy to wear. So choose any patterned top or dress in red like my floral dress here, bright red but the floral pattern breaking the red. You can choose stripes or the trending gingham or any pattern u like.
2. Red turns any piece of clothing or accessory into a statement piece. Imagine a simple tee but in red, now you know what i am trying to say. A red tee with a blue jean is the simplest outfit but it makes a statement. Wearing a red top makes the most casual outfits trendy.
3. Red is actually a great colour to add to your wardrobe incase, just like me you mostly love neutrals because it makes a great pop with all the neutrals there are. And if you are a colour lover i am sure u already have a lot of red. Signifying confidence and passion it can actually be ladylike and daring at the same time. A combination i love.
4. If you are a fan of red then this is your time to wear red all over. A red top with a red bottom and red shoes.
5. In case you still find red intimidating rock it in the form of accessories. think red earrings, bags, necklace and shoes. Keep the rest of ur outfit neutral and have a pop of red.
6. The hottest colour combo with red at the moment is pink. yes you read it right, pink, i could not have ever imagined it to be a colour combo even but yes it is and it looks great, fiery and head turning, red with pink looks feminine but fiery, soft but bold just a contrast of moods and you guys know how much i love contrast so its but obvious that i can’t wait to wear it myself. e.g A red bottom paired with a pink top or a red cami layered over a pink dress/ top, etc.
Are you digging red and how do you love to wear it?
