She is Hollywood royalty and he is a front man of a leading new rave band, but Keira Knightley and husband James Righton blended right in with the North London fashion crowd on Wednesday afternoon.

Enjoying a low key stroll in the slick district, the couple were in perfect sync with their stylish surroundings and also each other in chic mod outfits.

Keira and James, who have been married for a year and a half, looked like they were made for each other as they matched in height and walked along with arms draped around each other.

Klaxons singer James maintained his rocker routes with a black jumper, dark jeans and Chelsea boots and his hair swept over on one side.

But for a high profile star like Keira to step out in London in broad daylight without getting noticed, she would have to strip back her Hollywood glamour.

The Atonement actress chose a suitably cool nautical outfit, that saw her team a long-sleeved striped top with charcoal high-waisted trousers.

And the 5ft 7" actress did away with the heel height as she slipped into a pair of lace-up brogues to suit the relaxed style of their midweek walk.

Keira left her hair down and loose around her shoulders, with just a relaxed bedhead wave to ensure she didn't stand out from the crowd, though her only giveaway was a quilted Chanel handbag.

The actress appeared to have picked up a magazine on their travels as she rolled it up in one hand, while using the other to embrace her doting boyfriend.

The world-famous actress, who was born in London, debuts her hotly anticipated World War II biopic at the London Film Festival in October this year.

Keira's latest project, The Imitation Game has already been tipped for Best Picture at the Oscars and sees her star alongside top Brit talents Benedict Cumberbatch and Matthew Goode.

The film follows the life of computer codebreaker Alan Turing, played by Cumberbatch.
