The Blog | Style Director’s Shoot Diary

A crazy day shooting in 38 degree heat is followed by the ultimate break away at the The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort.

Shooting a main fashion story for the April issue of Emirates Woman.

It was hot, hot, hot, but long-legged Lina was still jumping around!

The results.

And then some much needed relaxation… Welcome to The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort!

To finish? A great Asian dinner at Sontaya, the Lobster curry is worth the drive from Dubai to Abu Dhabi alone.
