30 resort-inspired picks for your end of summer staycation
Summer is the perfect time to embrace effortless elegance, whether you're jetting off to a tropical resort escape or enjoying a chic staycation at home. This season's resort wear is all about clean lines, timeless silhouettes, and a curated mix of monochromatic staples and subtle prints that exude understated luxury. From high-street favorites like Massimo Dutti to iconic labels like Toteme, YSL, Dior, and Alaïa, as well as emerging brands like Murrakshi Life, the key is balancing comfort with sophistication. The beauty of minimalist summer dressing lies in its versatility—each piece transitions seamlessly from lazy poolside lounging to elegant evening dinners. View this post on Instagram 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 Images: Supplied & Feature Image: Pinterest

Did Apoorva Mukhija's ex-boyfriend, Utsav Dahiya, take a dig at her?
Popular YouTuber Apoorva Mukhija, known as The Rebel Kid, is back in the headlines. At a time when India's Got Talent controversy appears to have died down, Mukhija's ex-boyfriend, Utsav Dahiya, seems to be taking a sharp dig at her. Taking to Instagram, Dahiya shared a video of him singing for the "cute little red flag", a phrase Apoorva often uses in her videos. Mentioning that the relationship lasted twenty weeks, Dahiya asked his former partner to stop targeting him. "I asked why you called me disgusting in front of the world, you said, 'This is all business for me,'" Dahiya sang at one point. Dahiya captioned his post, "Never try to gain sympathy by fabricating lies or pushing false narratives just to make content and assassinate someone's character online. Having a big following doesn't give you the right to bully your way by rage-baiting your audience and unleashing them on others." The video instantly became a topic of discussion for many, as social media users joined in to connect the dots. One wrote, "Life really said plot twist. Now she's the Taylor Swift fan, but he's the one dropping breakup tracks." Dahiya, however, refrained from mentioning her name in his post. The YouTuber, who reportedly broke up with Dahiya in January last year, is yet to comment. Apoorva was recently seen in the first season of The Traitors.
