Weddings make for the best photo-ops

Jhanvi and Khushi Kapoor didn’t wait for Karan Johar throw them some breadcrumbs, and instead orchestrated their own big break with an Instagram blitzkrieg of jaw-dropping Indian couture.

Work that #humblebrag
Holidays are meant to spoil yourself into a deep food coma, but if you’re worried that your Instagram feed is missing out, let your gorgeous surroundings do all the bragging for you.
