I love the beach! It is definitely my happy place and if I had my way I would live on the beach, get up early and watch the sunrise every morning and sunbathe sunbathe sunbathe! Alas, the beach is reserved for holidays only (until I get house in California or something) and the beaches in Dubai are just beautiful.

White sands that lead you to crystal blue waters are super soft and are clearly very well looked after by the hotels. I could always find an odd pretty seashell which my mum is obsessed with collecting!

It was another beautiful morning and I decided to venture down to the ocean in this flowy maxi dress from Dolce & Gabbana. I love the print and fabric, it is so comfortable for the beach and can easily be worn throughout the day and well into the evening. It might be too soon to think about the summer but there are still some gorgeous maxi dresses on sale at Matches.com and Asos. Personally, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with planning/ dreaming ahead!
