5 Things To Do In Dubai

UAE Holiday

If you read my previous Lifestyle Post, you would know I am holiday-sick. I guess that is why this post is dedicated to my holiday in Dubai, my best holiday till date.

A Day In Dubai

I visited Dubai awhile ago and I am really looking forward to visiting again. It has been the best holiday I have ever had in my life. From the 1st class service from the Qatar crew, to the beautiful room and fantastic service at the Four Points Sheraton hotel, and then the lovely tourist attractions. Our 10 day stay was AMAZING.

Dubai

Dubai is a holiday destination like no other. The city comes alive with the hustle and bustle, beautiful beaches and fascinating local culture. It can serve as a great family destination, a romantic escape or a girls holiday, there is something for everyone. No wonder it is the number 1 tourist attraction in the world. There is no dull moment in Dubai, there is always something to do.

If I had another day in Dubai, this is how I will spend it:

Go On A Bus Tour

We went on a bus tour with Big Bus Tour and we explored the entire of Dubai, stopping at attractions we were interested in exploring, and getting back on the bus at allocated bus stops. It was a whole day of touring and it was so much fun.

Visit the Safari Desert

Dubai Dessert

Belly Dancer

We visited the Safari Desert and we will definitely visit it again. The crazy ride to and fro was fun, we were screaming all through. The belly dancer was a great entertainer, she kept us transfixed with her flexible moves. The food was great, a lot better than I expected and I even had a ‘lali’ design done.

Visit A Souk

Gold Souk

I will love to visit a souk again, even if it is just to have a feel of the traditional market and feed my eyes. Make sure you haggle to get best prices for gold, textiles and spices. you are sure to find cool bargains in a souk.

Go To Dubai Museum

Dubai Museam

I love discovering various cultures and part of what I wanted to do while on holiday in Dubai, was to learn more about their history and culture. I will be visiting the museum again to refresh my mind.

Visit Atlantis, The Palm Resort

Lost Chambers

I saved the best for last. Even if I don’t do any of the above, I MUST visit Atlantis, The Palm Resort again. This resort houses various heart pumping water slides like Leap of Faith, The Lost Chambers Aquarium, filled with sharks, eels and seahorses, which is a beauty to behold, and lots fun.

If I could have one wish, it would be to spend another day in Dubai. If you want a holiday destination with plenty of sunshine and fun, I urge you to book a holiday to Dubai with Travelbag.

Remember the Alexander Wang and H&M collection that sold out in days. Well, there is another collaboration going on, this time it is Balmain and H&M. The new collection is set to hit the stores on 5 November and it promises to be all ‘that’ and more. Kendall Jenner and Jourdan Dunn are pictured alongside the creative director – Olivier Rousteing, wearing pieces from the upcoming collection.

Here is what Olivier Rousteing had to say about the collection:

“I want to talk to my generation − this is my main aim as a designer,” said Rousteing. “H&M allows me the unique possibility of bringing everyone into the world of Balmain, getting a piece of the dream and creating a global #HMBalmaination: a movement of togetherness, fuelled on a hashtag. The collaboration felt extremely natural to me as H&M is a brand that everybody connects to. It calls for unity, and I am all for.”

I am so excited to see this new collection. Bring on  5 November 2015.

Beauty Muse – Dakore Akande

Dakore-Akande

The beautiful 36-year-old Nigerian Actress – Dakore Akande is the Beauty Muse of the week and I am super excited to feature her.

Dakore-Akande

I love Dakore’s face, she has amazing facial features. Her eyes, nose and lips are all in equal proportions and they suit her face perfectly. She also knows how best to show off her features. Her make game is ace, always on point. I have never spotted Dakore Akande not looking good. I have major makeup envy whenever I spot her flawless face. Her hairstyles are always on point as well. She is a true beauty.

Dakore is not your regular beautiful girl but that is what makes her stand out from the rest, her beauty is so refreshing, and her killer smile finishes off her look. She is all shades of beauty.

Dakore

Here are some of her beauty tips:

1. Find out what works for your skin and keep it glowing.
2. Define your style and stick with it. Don’t let anyone define your style.
3. Keep a consistent fitness routine and a healthy diet. Have your ‘me’ time as much as you can.
