Party Time Dubai

Went out clubbing one night in Dubai. Just want to clarify a

few things:

Yes, there are clubs in Dubai, and yes, they do serve alcohol. No big secret there. 

I guess I kind of assumed that the rules of modesty also applied to night clubs, so I kept my shoulders and knees covered. But damn, I ended up being the most covered person in the whole night club. 

Note to self: in terms of dress code, from the taxi to the club, anything goes.

Dress: H&M

Necklace: H&M

Bag: Louis Vuitton

Two-toned tights: American Apparel

Shoes: Vintage

Dubai Style Day Two

Top: Michael Kors via thrift store

Leggings: American Apparel

Shoes: Sseko sandals

Scarf: vintage

I wore this same top in Portland just before I left for my trip. Trying to  see how it fits is hot and cold climates.

Now it's time for the famous Ari to get photographed in front of the other  "Burj" in Dubai, the Burj Khalifa. It's so tall we could only fit the bottom in the picture. Don't worry, more photos of the Burj Khalifa will be coming soon!

Dubai Style Day One

Dubai, I have arrived.

Yes, that's the legendary Burj al Arab in the background.

Dress: vintage shalwar kameez

Leggings: American Apparel

Scarf: probably from the fashion district in LA

Shoes: Sseko Sandals

No fashion post would be complete without mention of my fashionably fabulous friend and host, Ari. This girl is not only my college alum and an American expat in Dubai, but she is part of the next generation of Dubai designers. Be on the lookout for her!

I love how she covers a too-sexy-for-the-Emirates top with a sheer shawl for this modest yet classy look.
