My Version of Art Dubai

Since I didn't get the chance to go to Art Dubai this year, I had my own version of Art Dubai after dining at La Petite Maison restaurant in DIFC, Dubai.  Even though I have been to DIFC before months ago when I went to Caramel, it was my first time to explore the well constructed area. I didn't know there were so many art galleries all located next to each other. Unfortunately, they were all closed. Nevertheless, that didn't stop me from snapping pictures here and there of some of the amazing art pieces on the window displays. And look what I've spotted on Opera Gallery's window display, the same mesmerizing mannequin which I saw at the gallery's branch in Dubai mall but instead of being covered in pencils, it was completely covered in jigsaw puzzles! AMAZING! Scroll down to check out some pieces from other art galleries which I unfortunately forgot their names (oops!).

A funny installation in an out-of-place surroundings! Loved it!
This looked kind of spooky! I actually thought that this was the gallery's security guy.  Then I realized after a closer inspection that this was a wax figure.
Creatively designed benches were on display at DIFC. They were part of UAE-based hip boutique s*uce benches project

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in  Miu Miu   Boutiques throughout our region.

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
