After the excitement of last weekend (thanks to Formula One, Jay Z et al.), you’d think we’d be ready to kick-back and relax. But us Emirates Woman ladies always have some energy in reserve – especially when there are opening nights to attend and new shops to visit. Here’s how we’ll be spending our hard-earned cash this weekend…
WHAT A VIEW
Sho Cho may be a stalwart on the Dubai social scene, but this evening there is an extra reason to visit – the view. The nightspot is opening its legendary terrace in typically stylish fashion. This is where the region’s elite go for drinks and nibbles with views over the Arabian Gulf. Dubai Marine Beach Resort and Spa, Jumeirah Road, (04) 3461111.
MALL HAUL
Our Fashion Editor Angela attended the opening of Mulberry’s new store in Galleria, Abu Dhabi, and came back singing its praises. With such a glowing review we decided it would be rude not to go and have a look this Friday – we have our eye on a new Mulbery clutch. For more information call (02) 6166999.
BRING ON THE BRUNCH
Featuring live cooking stations and DJs, Saturday brunch at Blue Marlin, Golden Tulip Al Jazira, Ghantoot, is the perfect way to end the week. We’ll be eking out the final hours of our weekend at the hedonistic beach club, sampling delicious food and cocktails. With a terrace and dining area all kitted out with minimalist Mediterranean décor, it’s a taste of Ibiza in the Middle East.
