There’s a hidden gem of a place that I discovered this weekend and it goes by the name of Solis Beach Club. Located at the Tiara Residences on Palm Jumeirah, Solis Beach Club is my kind of place for a relaxing lunch or dinner in beautiful surroundings. Continue reading

This week I visited Royal China located in the DIFC. I love Royal China in London so I was really looking forward to experiencing the Dubai restaurant. It did not disappoint. Continue reading

Last week I went down to the campus to have a talk with the students who were presenting their collections to Splash as well as the Powerpuff Arabia ambassadors, DJ Bliss and Simone Heng.

It’s funny when people start to question what it is I do. Am I a blogger? Am I an event planner? Am I a writer? Am I a PR consultant? Truth be told I am all of the above and much more. No two days in my life are ever the same and that’s what keeps me motivated. One day I maybe writing a press release for one client and the next organising a fashion show for another. It’s this variety that I love!
Last week Leila Najjar from Fashion Fifth and I attended the Huda Beauty Bash at Capital D Studios in Dubai. After getting lost for about an hour and a half in Al Quoz trying to find the location, one final right turn before giving up and going home for some pizza somehow landed us in the right place! Hurrah!
After being treated to yummy goodies from The Dish, skin consultations from Vaseline and a funky neon pink mani from N.Style, Leila and I puckered up for an Instagram shot, captured by the lovely Serene from Purple PR. I really want another iPhone just for Instagram after my last one drowned in the pool!
Thank you Huda for the amazing goody bag and the really fun event! The bloggers had a blast! xoxo
A few weeks back, I attended the Grazia Style Awards at Madinat Jumeirah. This glittering event was full of the city’s hottest designers, fashion houses, bloggers and media and some very special guests including Christian Louboutin and hosts for the evening, Henry Holland and Poppy Delevigne.
Over the next few days, I’ll be sharing some videos I captured on my flip, but today’s post is dedicated to Alanoud Badr, the winner of Grazia’s “Best Local Designer” award for her label, Lady Fozaza.
Alanoud’s family were all there to support her in her win and her mum was the cutest person there! Congrats babe – you totally deserve it!
