THE DESERT OF DUBAI WITIH CAROLINA HERRERA

Everything: Carolina Herrera

In Dubai, it’s all about glamour. This is a city that loves and lives for luxury. I felt completely at home because there was so much NYC in Dubai. Being a city full of expats from all over the world, you really get a taste for so many diverse cultures. But I wanted a real taste of the city’s Middle Eastern culture. We visited the desert of Dubai simply on a safari complete with scarves around our heads to protect us from the sun and wind while we clutched onto the bumpy ride for this thrilling adventure. Dylana and  I were in town shooting with Carolina Herrera, so of course I styled up some amazing CH pieces like stunning silk scarves tied as a top, a gorgeous maxi skirt, along with the beautiful Insignia bag. There is something so iconic about the desert here in Dubai. The sand and hills go on as far as the eye can see. I love the color pops here contrasted against the soft, sandy hills. It was a super hot, but beautiful afternoon. We sipped on traditional tea with the locals before zooming through the desert in our bright red jeep scouting out shooting locations. I love being able to move and play with iconic poses out here in the open land. It was freeing. Before we got a bit too sunburn, the team and I headed to Al Maha, a resort and spa in the middle of the desert for a little R&R. We had a delicious brunch out on the porch, while gazelles walked freely by us. It was unlike anything I’ve ever seen. A very peaceful, serene moment that can never be recreated again. I just soaked it all up pinching myself at how lucky I was to be right there in that moment.

THE MERINO SERIES | WOOLMARK X 3.1 PHILLIP LIM

Coat: Woolmark x 3.1 Phillip Lim. Turtleneck: Woolmark x 3.1 Phillip Lim. Tights: Emilio Cavallini. Earrings: Sabrina SL. Boots: Swedish Hasbeen. Bag: Mulberry.

I love everything about merino wool. With Woolmark focusing on such a sustainably conscious, renewable fibre, I find it comforting knowing that my most lived in pieces are also great for the planet. This traditionally utilitarian fabric just got updated and modernized with the new Woolmark x 3.1 Phillip Lim collaboration featuring this incredible oversize puffer coat and cropped turtleneck sweater. I fell in love with the collection’s use of plaid and textures. It will always remind me of my winter travels. Cozy rainy days in Montreal. Long weekends in a cabin in upstate New York. Escaping to the ski slopes of Lake Tahoe. This dreamy coat is something I throw over everything. It being reversible is also a major plus in my book! The Merino Series features the most innovative fabrics and yarns, creating a super chic collection that also keeps me extra warm. This may just be the perfect winter color palette. A mix of nudes, hunter greens, and grays. Take a peek through the series. It will immediately make you want to pack it all up and take a weekend breather somewhere out in the woods. I live for that warm and nostalgic feeling I get every single Christmas.

HOT LAVA | PREEN

Dress: Preen by Thornton Bregazzi. Boots: Frye. Earrings: Annika Inez

My love for Preen by Thornton Bregazzi continues with this spectacular red sequin midi. But it’s not just any sequin party dress, it’s a piece of art. I want to collect every single one of Preen’s dresses. I took this piece through the Mojave Desert yesterday on the way to Viva Las Vegas. Clearly, I have that old school Nevada glamour on my mind. I love the contrast of something so glamorous against something so simple, dusty, and raw. We hopped out of the car and caught that very last light of sunset. It brought out the fire red color even more. I feel so inspired and free in this environment. A dress made of dreams, windswept hair, and a worn-in pair of cowboy boots. I will always love the quiet and peacefulness of the open road. Today I’m keeping things short and sweet as I’m away on holiday. I tend to get more inspired as I’m on the road, coming up with new concepts and grabbing my camera. Team Suarez never stops. Keep checking back in for more in the wild, wild west.
