[dropcap]A[/dropcap] very happy start to May and an especially happy birthday month to any of you celebrating (me included)! I don’t have any grand plans but I’m sure it will involve plenty of food and a beach day. This will also be the second year celebrating in Dubai and I honestly can’t believe how fast the time has gone by. I don’t think I’ve updated you on the latest from our desert life so here’s a brief:

• We have a new puppy called Ragnar. He is a Blue British Bulldog and loves chewing everything
• We will be moving to a new place in Dubai soon
• I have been working at Emirates Woman for almost a year
• There is an exciting trip coming up which I’ll share with you soon

Today I bring you a look inspired by Maria Grazia Chiuri’s SS17 Dior show. The main part I wanted to focus on is the tulle skirt. Seen on models marching down the runway and styled with logo T-shirts, ballerina tulle is given a grown up kick and re shaped into something a strong woman of now can wear from day to night. I’ve spotted tulle skirts with Balenciaga biker boots to crisp white shirts and sneakers.

I decided to layer it over skinny jeans and add an embellished top which makes this combination ideal for a date night. Heels are a must if I’m venturing into layering and I also added a classic Chanel bag and fun pom pom earrings.
