H&M Conscious launched an Exclusive Glamour Collection


"H&M has created an exclusive collection of red-carpet looks, all made from more sustainable materials such as organic cotton and hemp as well as recycled polyester. The collection showcases the diversity of what is now possible in greener fashion, with outfits in different styles reflecting the variety of today’s red carpet fashion.”

Here are my top two picks from this collection. I wonder whether we'll be seeing any of these here in Dubai.

I've got the Code!

A few weeks ago I won a gorgeous CeeCode bag on the Tinayums blog and to add to it I got to meet the lovely designer Cynthia Pennikian. I’m honored to meet such a young talented designer who is so charming and friendly.

This is me with my new CeeCode bag and Cynthia Pennikian.

I love these Round Signature Bags from CeeCode.

These license plate bags can also be customized so you can create your own unique piece with your name or even your license plate number. The customizable bags are called Ceeplate.



















Here's a closer look at the CeeCode bag I now own. If you'd like to get your own bag check out the website here for the store locations in Dubai & Lebanon. Or check out their facebook page here.

A backstage pass to Alexander McQueen's Spring/Summer 2012 runway show

"I was thinking about a woman as an object of desire. We go to such lengths to adorn ourselves that we almost become our clothes or are taken over by them. This is a collection about excess - an exploration of ideals of beauty at their most extreme." - Sarah Burton, Creative Director of Alexander McQueen


Alexander McQueen introduces a short backstage film, created by young filmmaker Sean Frank, featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of Sarah Burton and the Alexander McQueen team preparing for the Spring/Summer 2012 runway show, which took place during Paris Fashion Week 4th October, 2011.

We want Noël Caleb in Dubai

Just discovered this fab designer in Singapore thanks to a new blog I started following called 'Bonjour Singapore' and I just had to blog about it too!

Noël Caleb is the meaning of Christmas and Devotion combined. It is an independent label from Singapore that just started in February 2011.

What I love about these designs is the use of playful use of color and the funky wearable styles. My favorite has to be be the Alexandrova twist draped skirt. They're available to buy online here until one of our favorite local stores start to stock them.

Mood Swings Much?

Lebanese designer, Martine Haddad, founded the “Martine” brand in 2006 with one aim in mind; to create conceptual, distinctive jewelry for discerning fashionistas the world over.

And I must say she has done just that. Not only does she create custom pieces but she also has a whole range of ready-to-wear jewellery using only the purest precious metals and stones.

She has just launched her latest Spring/Summer '11 collection called Moodswings, which is my personal favourite. I think they're great and would look good worn plain or with a wrist full of bracelets. Check out this uber cute promo video for this collection:


You can check them out At Martine's website or her facebook page and you can buy the Moodswing collection at any of the S*uce outlets.
