A post shared by Hannah (@cocobeautea) Here's how to style these resort-ready pieces for a polished staycation look that feels just as luxurious as a getaway:
The Effortless Slip Dress: A sleek monochrome slip dress is the ultimate piece for understated glamour. Layer delicate gold jewelry and pair it with minimalist sandals for an elevated loungewear moment. Throw on an oversized linen shirt for a relaxed cover-up that adds effortless sophistication.
Tailored Linen Ease: Nothing says summer like a perfectly tailored linen set in soft neutrals—beige, ivory, or slate gray. This polished yet breathable ensemble works just as well for a rooftop brunch as it does for a sunset stroll. Keep accessories simple with woven leather slides and a dainty bracelet stack.
Printed Sophistication: For those who love a touch of pattern, opt for a softly printed midi skirt or a flowing blouse with delicate motifs. Stick to muted tones—think charcoal stripes, abstract brushstrokes, or tonal florals—to maintain a refined aesthetic. Balance the look with solid separates, like a crisp white tank or tailored shorts.
Accessorize with Ease: The right accessories can elevate even the simplest outfit. A structured straw tote adds a touch of vacation-ready charm, while oversized sunglasses lend instant glamour. Finish with barely-there sandals or sleek mules to keep the look polished yet relaxed.
Whether you're unwinding at home or dreaming of your next escape, this season's resort wear proves that minimalist dressing can still make a statement. The curated selection of pieces—from understated neutrals to delicate prints—offers endless styling possibilities. High-street finds bring accessibility, while luxury investments ensure timeless appeal. With these effortlessly chic looks, your staycation wardrobe will feel just as indulgent as a seaside retreat. Embrace the season with clean, elegant silhouettes, and let these refined pieces inspire your summer aesthetic. After all, true luxury lies in simplicity. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram

Kris Aquino Shares Struggles with Pain Amid Rainy Days and Ongoing Health Battle
TV host and actress Kris Aquino opened up about her worsening physical condition, particularly the severe bone pain she experiences during rainy weather—one of the many symptoms tied to her over 10 autoimmune diseases. Through a Q&A session with followers on Instagram, Kris candidly shared that she's been feeling sad lately, especially with the upcoming 16th death anniversary of her mother, former President Cory Aquino. She expressed sorrow knowing her mother might be witnessing her suffer from both physical and emotional pain. Despite this, Kris remains proud of her son Joshua, who she describes as sweet and affectionate. She thanked close friends and family, including her sister Viel and former senator Nancy Binay's sister Anne, for helping take care of Josh while she's far away. She also noted that the fresh sea breeze has helped improve her breathing and stabilize her blood pressure—an important benefit given her low blood condition. However, Kris admitted that the rainy weather intensifies her pain. She even drew a sentimental comparison, recalling how her mother once said she was the 'female Ninoy,' and now sees her youngest son, Bimby, as the version Cory truly deserved. Responding to a fan's well-wishes, Kris said she experiences both good and bad days, but is thankful to have Bimby by her side during the worst ones. She also clarified that she has never had cancer, addressing rumors triggered by her PET scan earlier this year. The scan, she explained, was meant to monitor lung damage from her autoimmune condition and long COVID, not cancer.
