TSS Update: June

Happy

Summer is here people! I repeat, summer is here! Grab your beautiful summer dresses, your favourite hats and let’s get to it! (Don’t forget the rosé) June is an exciting month because I’ll be attending my first ever international press trip with an amazing haircare brand. I cannot wait to learn more about their products and also see the amazing things they do to give back to the environment.

I also will be attending a wedding of two dear friends and I cannot wait to celebrate their love! It also happens to be taking place in a city I’ve never been too so I’m excited to also create some travel related content for you guys and share more on that front.

On a more personal note, I feel like May was a month of emotional growth. I was nominated for the Blogosphere awards under Blogger of The Year. I didn’t win the prize this year but I did feel that the blogger who won truly deserved it. I also felt so honoured to even be nominated so early on in my career alongside people who are so established in the industry. There was so much to take away, and to further inspire me. I can’t wait to keep going and doing more for myself and for you guys.

Another thing that happened this month is that I had a lot of realisations in relation to a topic that I feel really strongly about; diversity. I am not using that word in a buzz word sort of sense and there is so much I have to say about the way it’s being tossed around right now but you’ll have to stay tuned for that as well.

What are you up to this June?

Okay, what can you NOT see in this photo? Behind every beautiful shot there is a story – and here’s this one. When we were in The Cotswolds, we drove by countless of these beautiful yellow fields. We kept thinking, how beautiful would it be to capture this moment? But I kept avoiding it. WHY? // Because I’m honestly so afraid of bees! 🐝 I was so afraid of all the flying insects, the pollen extravaganza waiting to attack my sinuses and on some level, creating a shot that maybe you guys wouldn’t actually like. BUT, you know what? // We got out of the car and we went for it. Luckily there were no bees, I’ve got an anti histamine for my hay fever and I hope you guys do like the shot! Remember that the hard work is worth it – and that there’s always a solution to the problem 💪🏽

The Best Instagram Worthy Spots For Breakfast in London

THAT MORNING COFFEE..

Editors Note: For my favourite Instagram Worthy Cafes in London, see here.

Breakfast is probably my favourite meal of the day and I always look forward to a super yummy one! I love going to try out new restaurants, especially when you’re luring me with a solid french toast and a good cup of coffee. Now, although many of you are probably expecting me to list the likes of Elan Cafe etc. in this post, I actually wanted to share places where I actually enjoy the food AND that can be quite Instagram friendly too! If the coffee isn’t good though, it isn’t worth the gram, right?

So here are some spots where you can still get that perfect Instagram shot, without sacrificing on a super yummy start to your day as well.

AOK KITCHEN

One of the newest openings in Marylebone, AOK Kitchen is somewhere that looks amazing while serving up amazing dishes. Everything is made without refined sugar and the most minimal use of dairy so if you are intolerant to anything like me (I’m dairy intolerant!), then this is the best place to go enjoy a fabulous meal that doesn’t taste like it’s been made with substitutes! The interiors are also so warm and welcoming , especially if you can nab the corner table with the beautiful indoor flower tree.

I highly recommend their pastries, their banana muffin and the pancakes.

Photo Spot: Inside, by their flower tree.

FISCHERS

I feel like Fischer’s is not as well known as it’s counterparts, like the Wolseley (also a fab spot!) but the breakfast is equally good! The food is super comforting, with lots of yummy swiss classics that are a hearty start to your day. My favourite thing about this place though is their coffee! I grab it to go as a treat sometimes! Try and grab a spot outside if the weather is lovely and enjoy people watching on one of their little gold tables.

Photo spot: Outside by their quaint little tables


MAYFAIR COMPTOIR

Another small hidden gem in the heart of Mayfair, Mayfair Comptoir is a stone’s throw away from Selfridges. Although the breakfast menu is minimal, they have all your favourite things and they know how to do them really well! The coffee is also super (are you sensing a theme with me and my morning coffee?) and I particularly love their pancakes and their croissants.

Photo spot: Outside with their Parisian style seating

MORTIMER HOUSE

Mortimer House is part members club, part restaurant and is open through the day. With lots of natural light streaming in and many spots for you to get comfortable with your laptop/notebook/friend, it’s the perfect spot for some breakfast! I particularly love their eggs and all their juices. If it’s a nice day, I also much prefer to sit outside!

Photo spot: Anywhere! It’s so photogenic!

HARRY’S DOLCE VITA

Although this isn’t the original Harry’s from Venice, Harry’s Dolce Vita in Knightsbridge and now also in Marylebone and Mayfair, is still really good! I am a huge fan of their eggs and their entire breakfast menu is drool worthy for sure! Try to get there early though as it starts to fill up as the weather gets better!

Photo spot: Outside for that Dolce Vita vibe! Their bathroom is also quite cute for a mirror selfie!

Here are all my tips to always being a stylish traveler and nailing the perfect airport outfit!

Photos by Alise Jane

I’m kicking off my travels for the year and if you’ve kept up with my Instagram you will know exactly where I’m going! Something a lot of you ask me is what to wear to the airport and I think that this is an occasion where you can be stylish and comfortable (in fact, it’s a must!) The perfect airport outfit is one that makes you feel comfortable but also effortless. Here are my three tips when creating the perfect travel look:

1. Sneakers all the way
When travelling for a long haul flight, don’t overthink it. Stick to your sneakers! Sneakers look cool and are easy to get on and off especially during security. I travel in my Adidas NMD’s because they are by far my most comfy pair of sneakers!

2. Comfort can also be stylish
I always travel in track pants when I’m taking a flight that is any longer than an hour. I know that sometimes people think track pants look quite frumpy, but its all about finding the right pair. I found this INCREDIBLY soft pair from Topshop that is high waisted and looks so cool. The light colour immediately makes it look more chic.

3. Layer up!
I always feel super cold on planes so I pay particular attention to my layers. I like to add some colour to my outfit which I did with my jacket. I love that this jacket is comfortable yet colourful which makes my entire airport outfit look so cute right? It’s also an easy layer to take off if I feel too hot or snuggle up with if I feel cold!

What is your go-to airport outfit?

Fashion and Travel blogger Shloka Narang of The Silk Sneaker shares her four best things to do in Jamaica

4 Things You Have To Do When You Visit Jamaica

Fashion and Travel blogger Shloka Narang of The Silk Sneaker shares her four best things to do in Jamaica

The Insider Tips To Seeing Jamaica Like The Locals Do…

Visiting Jamaica was one of the highlights of my summer this year and summer has just begun! This beautiful country has so much to offer, from fabulous food, nature, sun, sea and sand! If you are planning a trip to Jamaica this summer or this December, I’ve put together four things to do in Jamaica that you just cannot miss out on. These are not four things that every tourist is recommended, these were three of my favourite spots, all shown to me by one of my best friends who also happens to have grown up there! That’s how you know that you’re going for an authentic experience!

Fashion and Travel blogger Shloka Narang of The Silk Sneaker shares her four best things to do in Jamaica

Lime Cay

In the middle of the sea is a secluded floating island with nothing and no one on it. It is literally an untouched paradise with beautiful blue water all around. This is Lime Cay. You can start your morning by taking a boat out to the island (you can arrange for the same boat to come pick you up!) and spend a wonderful morning and afternoon on this beautiful island. Pack everything you need with you though because there is literally nothing else on it! Private beach anyone?

EITS Cafe

One of the most beautiful views I got of Jamaica was on our very first day there when we went up to EITS Cafe; which stands for Europe in the Summer. In the middle of the beautiful Jamaican mountains, there is this tiny cafe with lovely food, an incredibly friendly owner and a view that will take your breath away. I highly recommend ordering the rum punch when you’re out there too! It’s fabulous! Don’t forget the plantain and the rice and beans on the side!

Port Antonio

When most people plan a trip to Jamaica, they think of Montego Bay. Instead of doing what everyone is doing, why not try something different but equally as beautiful; Port Antonio. You go to Port Antonio to do nothing but relax and swim! We stayed in a stunning villa which you can also rent as well. Here are all the details on it. If you’d rather stay in a hotel, The Trident is the local boutique hotel in the area. It also happens to be where Beyonce stayed and if it’s good enough for Queen Bee, it’s good enough for us all!

Rafting Down The Rio Grande River

Another amazing experience is taking the rafts down the rio grande river. Don’t worry, this is not an extreme sport. Sit back and relax while your raft is guided down this beautiful, un touched river. You can stop for lunch on the bank of the Rio Grande for a specially cooked local lunch as well. This was one of my favourite days in Jamaica!

This happens in Port Antonio!

The 3 Beauty Products I Can’t Live Without When I’m Jet Lag…

Beauty blogger Shloka Narang of The Silk Sneaker shares her tips for reducing face puffyness and decreasing dark circles featuring KNC Beauty, Jo Malone and Jade Roller

No More Puffiness or Dullness!

There is nothing worse than coming back from a relaxing and recharging holiday and having to deal with jet lag. Travel can make your face and body swell up, your dark circles become so much more prominent and make you feel generally exhausted! Having had to go through that myself pretty recently after my flight back from Jamaica, I wanted to share with you the three beauty products that made my travel back to London so much easier. These three products made me feel so much more energetic, and look so much better, regardless of my insane jet lag! What’s great about these three products though, is that they come to use no matter what you may be doing. Had a heavy bank holiday weekend? Then these three products are for you! An insane night out? Don’t worry these will cover you! All nighter? These three products are still the heroes! So as you can see, you need to implement these into your beauty routine stat!

Do you use any of these products already? Share your experiences in the comments below!

A Jade Roller

If you’re wondering what all the fuss about jade rollers are, let me break it down for you. Using a jade roller on clean skin (You can use it to spread your favourite serum around in the morning or evening) helps to reduce puffiness, increase blood circulation and contribute to brighter, firmer skin. You should see a difference after adding a few minutes with a jade roller to your routine!

KNC Retinol Under Eye Masks

I posted this on my Instagram a few weeks ago when I returned from Jamaica. I was battling serious jet lag, puffy eyes and dark circles. These under eye masks, infused with retinol, from KNC are total life savers for anyone coming back from a long trip, or just after a heavy weekend! The retinol helps to keep the skin vibrant and brightens up your appearance.

Jo Malone Shower Scrub

This is a total essential after any holiday. It’s a scrub and shower gel in one! It moisturises your skin keeping you looking fresh and gorgeous post your holiday! It comes in a few different signature scents and keeps that holiday feeling going all summer long!

The Perfect Holiday Packing List…

Editors Note: To see all the swimwear I wore on my trip to Jamaica click here. To see all the outfits I wore on my trip to Jamaica, click here!

With summer finally here, we are all in the midst of planning our summer vacations, which means you are in need of the perfect holiday packing list. If you’re going somewhere warm and sunny like Jamaica or the Carribean (or anywhere with a beach for that matter; that means Italy too!) and are wondering what to pack for a week at the beach, I have got you covered from the perfect holiday outfits, the most adorable sandals and the best summer accessories too. Follow my holiday packing list and you’ll be having your most stylish holiday yet!

Starting with clothes, I’ve rounded up some of my favourite pieces that are perfect for mixing and matching while you’re away. Remember that with every statement or colourful piece, you need a good basic to go with it. Personally, Uniqlo is my favourite spot for affordable and good quality basics. My suitcase to Jamaica was full of white t-shirts and linen shirts, along with these key pieces!

In terms of accessories, I like to go bold and colourful because holidays are the best time to do just that! Don’t be afraid to get creative! For example, use your favourite silk scarf in your hair, or tie it over your bikini as a bandeau top! Paired with a great pair of linen trousers, you are set!

Lastly, the right beauty products are essential when you are in the sun! I’ve linked to my favourite suncare right now, the best after sun care lotion, and some amazing oils to keep you glowing and moisturised without messing your tan!

What is on your holiday packing list? Do you have any holidays coming up this summer? Should I make a little printable version for you guys? Let me know in the comments below!

My Jamaica Swimwear Diary: The Best Swimsuits for 2018

The Best Swimsuits for 2018…

Summer is finally here and I couldn’t be happier because it means it’s time to get your holiday wardrobe in order! As you may know, I was in Jamaica at the start of this month and I was so excited to finally get all my favourite swimsuits for 2018 out. What better way to start sharing my trip with you, than to share a little look into all my favourite, and what I think are the best swimsuits for 2018! There is something for everyone from the cutest high street finds to my favourite luxury pieces that I think are worth the splurge. I hope you also find some summer inspiration on how to style your swimsuits through my summer holiday outfits! So, here’s a look at all the swimwear I was rocking in the Jamaican sunshine. Remember to turn off your AdBlocker so that you can see all my picks and recommendations as well! Comment below with what your favourite swimsuit of my trip was!

Fashion blogger Shloka Narang of The Silk Sneaker shares her picks for the best swimsuits for summer 2018 including high waisted bikinis and stylish one pieces from Zimmermann, Solid and Striped and Topshop

Day One: The Chic One Piece

Luxury

On our first day there, I opted for a stylish and classic one piece from one of my favourite swimwear brands, Solid & Striped. This one piece is a classic cut and universally flattering so you know it will last season after season. I’ve linked to this swimsuit, and a few affordable, but still stylish, options below. Make sure your ad blocker is off so you can see these amazing options.

Day Two: Candy Stripes

High Street

I am totally obsessed with stripes this season and this striped bikini is no exception. I wore this on day two and was so impressed with the quality of this swimsuit. I love the fun yellow and white stripes as well. This one is from Next which you can get here. For other affordable options, or for an investment piece, scroll the widget below.

Day Three: The Frill Bikini

High Street

We went to a local beach on day three where I wore this pink frilled Topshop bikini. I love the delicate frilled details on the top; another super flattering piece. This is from last season, but it’s still available in baby pink and they also made a frill bikini in baby blue. For more options see below!

Day Four: The New Designer

Luxury

You all know how much I love discovering new designers and Hunza G is my latest crush. They are a London based company who make the cutest swimwear. I particularly love this bikini becuase of the tortoise shell detail and the terry fabric. Plus, the colour is mind blowing! I got this one from Koi Bird, a swimwear pop up in Marylebone which is very much worth checking out if you have a trip coming up!

Day Five: The Classic Bikini

Luxury

If you’re looking for a flattering, classic bikini worth investing in, look to Heidi Klein. Her styles are cut to perfection and her prints will last you season after season. This stripe bikini for example, would never go out of style! You guys were loving it on Instagram and I’m sure it’s because Heidi Klein has the best cuts!

Day Six: The Rainbow Touch

Luxury

Another amazing piece from Solid & Striped! I picked this piece up right before I left for Jamaica and I am so glad I did. The colours look amazing against a tan and the style is also really comfortable. I wore this when we went river rafting down the Rio Grande! I’ve linked to this one and some more affordable rainbow pieces for this season below.

Day Seven: The Show Stopper

Luxury

I bought this Zimmermann swimsuit back in January and have been waiting to wear it since then. I was so excited to finally share it with you all on this trip to Jamaica. Everything about this swimsuit is beautiful, from the detailing of the flowers on the bottom, the chic waist belt, the high waisted style and the off shoulder top! If there was ever a swimsuit worth the splurge, this is it. Of course, I’ve linked to a few more affordable options of high waisted swimsuits below!

Day Eight: The Iconic Piece

Luxury

The Missoni print is unmistakable and if you’re looking to expand your luxury swimsuit collection, investing in a Missoni piece is well worth it. The other pro about investing in a Missoni swimsuit is that they are timeless and last forever. It’s a print that will never go out of style so you know you’re getting your money’s worth! I opted for a high waisted style again. It’s very flattering for petite girls like me! I’ve linked to some more affordable printed options below.

Day Nine: The Surprise

High Street

You know when you look at a swimsuit and you aren’t sure if it’s going to look that great, but you suddenly put it on and fall in love with the style? This black bikini from Frankie Swimwear was exactly that. I wasnt’ sure if I was going to love the one shoulder style but once I put it on I felt so chic! It’s a very minimal yet bold style and something that anyone can rock! This one is available on The Bikini Project; a website that just launched today!

What do you think of my swimwear? Do you have a favourite piece?
