Designer India Mahdavi has created the chicest of chic places to draw up home when in CDMX. Think minimalist, though flirting with a little funk (take the leopard print chairs, or zebra velour sofa). If you ask us: the highlight has to be the roof terrace. 

Aurelia is a minimalist boutique inspired by our favourite concept stores, those that feature products crafted by local artisans. Browse their racks for unique patterned skirts, chic blouses, and handbags, along with a curated selection of vintage pieces— spot-on to accessorize a living room missing some charm. From breezy linen sets for summer to orchid-shaped necklaces, Aurelia offers thoughtfully designed items with a fresh, artisanal touch.

Aren’t we all fans of a good croissant? According to our friend Hannah, this might be the best one she ate during her visit. Saint is a pastry shop and café that makes elite drinks, sandwiches and sweet treats. For many locals, the perfect way to begin a sunny day is to visit them for an iced latte...for others, the best way to end a long day is to pass by and take home one of their delicious sourdough sandos.
