Four essential summer trends you need to incorporate right away

The dreary weather has passed and the sun shines again bringing the season of pool parties and margaritas upon us. So while you get ready to soak up the sun let me help you steal the spotlight with these trendy must-haves.

1.    Bucket Hats
They were popular in the 60s and now they are making a comeback. Protect your hair and skin with these cute fashion accessories bought back to life by Dior during the autumn/winter 2019 fashion show in Paris. Another brand leading a hand in the bucket revival is Prada with a unisex version during the Paris fashion week.

2.    Puffed sleeve
Who can forget iconic figures like Lady Diana in ruffled sleeve dresses or Janet Jackson sporting puffed shoulder jackets? This year brands like Kate Spade and Marc Jacobs are taking us back to the 80s by bringing back the puffed sleeves You can choose something from their latest collection or raid your mom and grandmother’s closet for a more authentically vintage look. One thing is for sure, these sleeves will add an edgy yet feminine touch to your look

3.    Shorts
Shorts are a summer staple, but this year the designers have given the daisy dukes and peek-a-boo shorts a rest and opted for a modest length instead. From cycling and stretch to broad satin shorts; Chanel, Stella McCartney and, Prada have all jumped on this wagon.
To complete this look pair the shorts with a fitted blazer and tick of another trend prevailing this season.

4.    Eco-friendly
The eco-friendly movement is in more swing than ever before. Recycling and reducing plastic waste is not the only way you can improve the environment. A better way is to invest in natural materials; they are breathable which makes them ideal for summer. That combined with ethical farming techniques and recycled fabric result in sustainable fashion. Many local Hong Kong designers like Kay Li and Rumi X have been making an impact, its time you did too!

So darlings, what are you waiting for? Head on out and refresh your summer wardrobe!

Hair washing and blow drying aren’t the only culprits behind those stray hairs in the sink; breakage can lead to excessive hair loss in damaged hair. The new Syoss Anti-Hair Fall* Fiber Resist 95 range with phyto stem cell extract strengthens and fortifies brittle hair. Hair will then grow long and strong again, boasting its usual natural shine and manageable texture.  The Science The new Syoss Anti-Hair Fall* Fiber Resist 95 strengthens the hair from root to tip. It does this with help from a phyto stem cell extract derived from botanical stem cells, which stimulates the hair’s energy metabolism in the roots where the hair grows. This in turn activates the roots. For best results, use both the shampoo and conditioner. This will lead to 95% less hair loss caused by hair breakage. Syoss Anti-Hair Fall* Fiber Resist 95 – optimum protection for the scalp, strong roots and hair that can stand up to anything.  The Result As you already know, I test all the products befo

Food Review - Circle Café

Circle Café has proudly joined the re-invention club and launched a new menu recently and I'm going to give you a low down on how well they scored. Tucked away into the quite Business Bay square in downtown Dubai, Circle Café is a cosy hidden gem. The simple and elegant interiors give a very relaxed home feel which makes the food more enjoyable. Let's get down to business then..First up were the Bagel chips. As the name suggests they were thinly sliced baked Bagel chips served with a Tarama Truffle dip. From the first bite I knew this dish was going to be in my top three for the night. They were so crisp and light that I couldn't stop munching. The zatar type seasoning gave it the perfect amount of subtle flavour. For those with a preference for stronger taste, the dipping sauce gives it a unexpected punch which grows on you with every bite. Next was the Whole Wheat Salmon Pasta followed by the Circle Greek Salad, both of which are healthy options but low on the seas

Food Review - Carluccio's and Bloomsbury Review

 The Dubai Mall has numerous hidden gems and every time I go there I stumble upon something new. A little pop up shop or cafe situated in some corner of the mall can always surprise. The places I tried this week aren't very hidden, but this was the first time I tried them. I did come across a new home store where I've never been before, but today we'll stick to Carluccio's and Bloomsbury. Carluccio's as the name suggest is Italian. You have two seating options, one facing the fountain and the other facing the mall (see image below). The service was friendly and quick considering the fact that it was a Thursday. We ordered two pizzas, a pasta and a salad. The margarita was thin crust, soft, chewy and pretty good. They did not have any options in chicken pizza's so we ordered for grilled chicken topping with our pizza., the result chicken strips on top of the same Margarita pizza. It din't taste bad, cause it still taste the same with just chicken on to
