Happy new year everyone! I hope you are all having a great start to the year. I know 2017 will be a lot better than 2016. I can feel it in my bones and I can’t wait to see what the new year brings.

I am back in the UK but still enjoying the holidays.   I am trying to get back into work mode but it hasn’t been easy so I am just making the most of the break, and trying to get back into the swing of things gradually.

I haven’t blogged or thought about blogging in days and this is the first time this has happened in over 3 years. I decided to take this long break over Christmas because I needed it.  I worked so hard all through last year, so a good break and digital detox was well deserved.

I had an amazing time in Dubai as expected. Dubai is the place to visit, so if you haven’t visited already, I would advise you do. It would be a holiday you would never forget for sure and it would have you thinking about the next time you would be able to visit.

I have another mini vacation in a few weeks and I am looking forward to that but for now, it is back to reality, which is work, work and more work. You can see more of my holiday photos on Instagram.

I will be making some new year resolutions but I will be keeping them private as usual. Life has taught me to not tell people my dreams but show them, and it does the trick.

I pray this new year is filled up with joy, laughter, happiness, prosperity, good health, peace and everything else that is good in life.

Thanks for sticking around and reading Fashion and Style Police. I promise to make it worth your whole.

Have an amazing year xo

Happy holidays guys. I hope you all had a merry Christmas. I did. Christmas was fun and I am still in the holiday mode. This Christmas was definitely one of the best I have ever had in my almost 30 years on earth. It was incredible and I am still having a swell time.

I am writing this post overlooking this amazing view from my sea view room on Jumeirah Beach. It is the most beautiful view I have seen in a very long time, and I am soaking it all in; making the most of it. I am having an amazing holiday as you can imagine. This is my second time visiting Dubai, and it is even more beautiful now than when I visited almost 5 years ago. It is like paradise on earth. If you have ever been to Dubai, you would know exactly what I mean. To think all of these did not exist a few years ago is unbelievable. I am yet to see any other country as beautiful as Dubai.

Apart from the beauty of Dubai, there is so much to do here that there is never a dull moment. I am yet to see any other country which as much to do as Dubai, well things I am interested in anyways. The kids are having so much fun, it feels so good to give them an amazing Christmas. And the Christmas vibe here is surprisingly cool.

I will be back to posting as normal on Fashion and Style Police in the new year so don’t miss me too much. I have juicy content lined up so I promise it would be worth the wait.

Wishing you all a very happy new year. Enjoy the holidays. See you in 2017 xo

5 Things To Do In Dubai

September 28, 2015 By in Lifestyle, Travel Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 20 Comments

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.

Dubai Holiday

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.

DUBAI HOLS

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.

Have you visited Dubai? Do you have any holidays booked for this year? Drop me a comment, let’s chat.
