Crochet, Cotton, and Coastal Vibes Take Over Summer Fashion
Pull&Bear's newest summer collection is made for those who want both city edge and island ease, without switching up their whole wardrobe. Whether you're navigating narrow streets in the city or dancing barefoot on island sand, this season's pieces are all about versatility with a side of fun.
Think: crochet halter tops that work for rooftop parties and beach bars. Or breezy open-back playsuits you can throw on after a swim and still look ready for an evening out.
For the Urban Jungle
City dressing doesn't have to mean stiff silhouettes and dark tones. Pull&Bear brings a more relaxed, but still polished, approach to summer in the city. We're talking embroidered cotton vests that are cool without trying, and sequinned crochet mini skirts that catch the sunset light just right.
Add a short balloon dress or a clean, coordinated set to the mix and you're ready for everything from morning coffee runs to sunset drinks. The collection's knit halter tops and airy layers offer just the right balance of comfort and style when the temperature rises but your schedule doesn't slow down.
For the Beach (Or Your Mood Board)
When it's time to escape, Pull&Bear shifts into full vacation mode. The island-inspired side of the collection goes big on rustic textures, open backs, and flowy fits. There's something inherently carefree about the strappy crochet dresses, fold-over shorts, and halter tops, made for warm breezes and saltwater hair days.
Even if your idea of a getaway is a backyard hang or beach-adjacent brunch, these are the pieces that feel like summer. Bonus: they pack light and wear even lighter.
Accessories That Get the Assignment
Pull&Bear's seasonal accessories add just the right finishing touch. Beaded earrings, plaited shopper bags, lariat necklaces, and embellished flat sandals bring a playful, boho touch without feeling overdone. Whether you're going full coastal or keeping things city-sleek, these extras do a lot of the styling work for you.
So, What's the Summer Style Formula?
It's simple: lightweight textures + playful details + don't-overthink-it energy. Pull&Bear has nailed the duality of summer, from city streets to sandy shores, with a collection that feels effortless and expressive.
Whether you're city-bound or beach-dreaming, this season's fits are designed to move with you and more importantly, feel like you.

APM Monaco's summer glow takes over the season with radiant elegance
Influencers Zainab Al Alwan, Loujain Adada, and Mariam Hussein bring the essence of the French Riviera to life in Collection Été This summer, APM Monaco has unveiled its much-anticipated Collection Été, and it's already being embraced by some of the Middle East's most stylish women. Influencers Zainab Al Alwan, LJ Loujain Adada, and Mariam Hussein have been spotted wearing key pieces from the collection, proving once again why APM Monaco remains at the forefront of fashion jewelry. The new collection captures the warmth and vibrancy of the South of France, a place that has long inspired the brand's identity. Each design channels the effortless elegance and inviting charm of Mediterranean summers in golden light, serene beaches, and the relaxed sophistication of coastal living. At the heart of Collection Été is Les Galets, the French word for pebbles. These smooth, rounded forms echo the natural coastline of the Mediterranean Sea, reflecting the tranquil rhythm of waves meeting stone. By incorporating these organic shapes into necklaces, bracelets, and earrings, APM Monaco has created jewelry that feels both contemporary and timeless. The pieces embody the laid-back yet polished lifestyle that defines the French Riviera. Another recurring motif is the sunshine ray, a subtle design element that symbolizes the region's radiant golden light. These motifs, understated yet striking, bring a brightness and joy to the collection, while palm tree silhouettes add a touch of tropical elegance. Together, these elements transport the wearer to the promenades of the Côte d'Azur, where the interplay of light and shadow creates a scene of endless summer. To enhance the collection's summer spirit, APM Monaco has incorporated seasonal stones such as turquoise and malachite. Their bold, refreshing hues contrast beautifully with the warm glow of yellow gold, adding vibrant pops of color that make each piece a statement in itself. Whether worn casually during the day or styled for evening elegance, the collection is designed to be versatile, easy to wear, and perfect for mixing and matching. This versatility was on full display as Zainab Al Alwan, Loujain Adada, and Mariam Hussein styled the collection in their own unique ways. Zainab highlighted the collection's playful side, pairing turquoise accents with effortless summer looks. Loujain brought out the collection's timeless elegance, demonstrating how easily the pieces complement more formal styling. Meanwhile, Mariam showcased the jewelry's bold, trend-forward edge, wearing standout designs that captured attention while remaining refined. Together, the three influencers exemplify what APM Monaco stands for: a brand that merges fashion with lifestyle, elegance with accessibility, and luxury with everyday joy. APM Monaco is not just jewelry; it's a feeling. The brand has long described itself as 'chic, fashion, and smile,' and with Collection Été, that spirit shines brighter than ever. From its roots in Monaco to its presence across global fashion hubs, APM has built a reputation as a leader in the silver jewelry market, celebrated for its creativity and craftsmanship. With this latest collection, the maison once again captures the essence of summer and offers jewelry lovers around the world a way to carry a piece of the French Riviera with them, wherever they go.

Dubai: For modern Indian cuisine, head to Punjab Grill
Good Indian food is not hard to come by in Dubai — from two Michelin-starred gastronomic journeys to traditional, low-key curry spots, both are available aplenty. Punjab Grill, however, sits comfortably between these two disparate concepts. Located within Anantara Downtown, the restaurant immediately made us feel welcome and at home while still offering an elevated environment — reminiscent of some of my favourite London curry houses, where my family would go for special occasions or when my dad wanted to treat me and my siblings if my mum was out of town. The delightful waiter recommended we opt for their tasting menu, which features a series of dishes celebrating the colourful cuisines of India's vast and varied regions, each interpreted through Punjab Grill's modern lens. We began our seven-course gastronomic journey with a light amuse bouche, consisting of a cheese kulcha with chili, walnut, and dates. The meal quickly progressed to appetisers, including a decadent stuffed aloo, chili and peanut thecha and meaty dakshin shrimps served with fried idli and curry leaf podi. After this flavourful start, we moved on to the larger dishes, with highlights including lemongrass and chili tikka kebabs, raunakeen lamb seekhan, and jimikand ka seekh — each dish brighter in spices, citrus, and overall character than the last. Following this parade of meaty dishes, we enjoyed saucier curries. The paneer roulade, served on a bed of creamy butter sauce, was my favourite dish of the evening (though it wasn't an easy choice to make). This was paired with makhani saag, parsi salli chicken, roomali roti, and brun pav. By this point, we were understandably full, but there's always room for dessert. We were presented with an array of Indian sweet treats, including kulfi, saffron falooda, and a rose and khus granita. This dining experience was hard to fault, with an array of decadent yet fresh flavours and bright interpretations of classic regional dishes. Hero dish: The paneer roulade was a fun take on one of my absolute favourites — 9/10 Senses: While feeling truly at ease, it still felt like a magical, flavoursome culinary journey — 8/10 Menu curation: Make sure you go hungry to enjoy the tasting menu! — 8/10 Service: The service was great, truly welcoming — 8/10 The details: 050 194 1107 KT Luxe
