Floral focus

Look ahead to autumn with this preppy patterned collection from Kage, now in store at Boutique 1. Embroidered tulips are combined with subtle ginghams, balancing street chic with feminine feels – think girlie ruffles juxtaposed with exposed zippers. Stay tuned, because next month, Kage will be launching its online shopping with speedy delivery.

• Available at Boutique 1 stores in the UAE; from Dh1,750

Pack it up

The latest Curve collection from LaLaQueen is on our wishlist. Ideal for travelling, the multipurpose pouches can be worn as backpacks or as clutches. Opt for a fiery red to make a bold style statement or go for the brown design for a more laid-back look.

Skin saver

As you start to venture outdoors again, shield your skin from pollution. This face lotion, made formulated with caviar extract and cultured pearl extract, combines antioxidants with a high SPF50+ protection. It also has a creamy, non-greasy texture, and can be used as a base under make-up.

• Available at BinSina pharmacies across the UAE; Dh252

Time to unwind

The Lacoste 12.12 watch is now available in women’s versions, in deeply saturated pop colours such as magenta and teal, in addition to classic white and navy styles. The colourful timepieces are inspired by the label’s popular polo shirts.

• Available at Hour Choice outlets across the UAE; from Dh495

Delectable jewels

Les Néréides recently laid roots in Dubai with the opening of its City Walk 2 boutique, and has now opened a second store in Dubai Mall. The jewellery house’s new Eclatante Discrétion collection combines depictions of vivid flowers in bloom and ladybirds with pretty gemstones.
