Over the weekend, Charli XCX got married to fellow musician, drummer George Daniel of rock band The 1975, at a low-key wedding in east London. My favourite part of the so-casual-its-cool shindig (in case anyone is asking)? Her sculpted Vivienne Westwood wedding dress, which she paired with a long veil pinned to the back of her head and white Jimmy Choo slingback heels. Talk about a dream look.


Interestingly, Charli XCX is not the first pop star to choose Westwood for her wedding—Miley Cyrus wore a floor-length draped gown when she married Liam Hemsworth in 2018, Demi Lovato wore a similar look for her California wedding earlier this year, and Hailey Bieber, who is as pop-star-adjacent as it comes, wore a Westwood mini dress for her nuptials to Justin Bieber in 2019.


In other exciting news, fitness girlies are rejoicing because Lululemon is set to come to India early next year. News outlets have reported plans for a store and an e-commerce partnership with Tata CLiQ. As a fan of their butter-soft, high-rise shorts and structured tank tops, I now have a reason to hit the gym again.


Up ahead, some reading material to brighten this dreary monsoon Monday.
