Life Lately

So many people have asked me to start blogging more frequently again so I’m forcing myself to make the time and actually try and stick to it more consistently. 

Seher & the City: Raffiné Beauty Salon

I fully concede that I am happiest when I leave the salon with big, bouncy, shiny hair. There is no other feeling quite like it and in my search for the best salons in Dubai I came across a hidden gem at the Sofitel Resort on the Palm, Raffiné Beauty Salon.

Seher & the City: Mo’s Dubai

Do you guys remember a few years ago when Caramel Restaurant & Lounge opened in DIFC and you could pretty much guarantee I would be there every weekend for dinner and at least twice a week for lunch? Well I’ve found another spot that hits all the right spots for me – Mo’s Dubai.

Best. Birthday. Ever!

I don’t make statements that I can’t back up, but this year I had the best birthday ever! I don’t think it is possible to laugh or feel so much love ever, but my family and friends made this year so unbelievably memorable that it will be so hard to top this year’s madness! One pool party, a game of racket ball that ended up in many an odd flying ball, some very questionable jello shots, a ridiculous amount of junk food, so many birthday cakes and the most importantly, being surrounded by everyone I love!

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis Design Competition

So you must have heard by now that award-winning Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are headed to Yas Island this month! And to celebrate FLASH Entertainment recently announced a unique and exclusive competition for UAE artists and graphic designers which will see them battle it out to design the ultimate gig poster for Grammy award-winning Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ show on Friday, 25 April at the du Arena, Yas Island.

Review: Calvin Klein Liquid Gold

So this little bottle of liquid gold (see what I did there?) just landed on my fragrance shelf. Calvin Klein’s latest fragrance in the Euphoria range is one heady ride into luxury!

My week with the Lincoln MKZ

If you follow me on Twitter and Instagram, over the past week you may have seen me hashtag #LincolnMKZ quite a bit. That’s because the lovely people at Lincoln gave me a car to test drive and it was literally love at first drive!

Reunion with Baby Sis!

There is no one in the world that I love as much as my sister. They say that sisters have bonds that are unbreakable and that has to be said about myself and my sister Laila. It had been almost a year and a half when Laila and I were reunited in September and those 10 days went by SO unbelievably fast, but we made sure we made memories to last!

Fashion Forward Season 2

Fashion Forward Season 2 took place over Eid weekend in October in Dubai and I don’t think I’ve had a busier 4 day schedule this year! Not only was I attending the shows as “media” but I had my lovely jewellery client, Azza Bijou, exhibiting in The Garden and another client, artist Hala Salem-Achillas in Dubai attending the shows and parties with me too. Queue all time-management skills from many years of event planning and I just about pulled it off!
