MOJEH meets one of the Middle East’s most stylish influencers to discuss all things fashion, beauty and interiors.

How would you define your personal style?

Feminine and classic, but with a defiant edge.

What is most important to you when it comes to dressing?

What inspires me the most is feeling great in my own skin, be it with a formal or casual look.

Since becoming a mother, how has your style evolved?

Comfort is definitely key! With a baby daughter, my day tends to be much more hectic, so it is important for me to be as relaxed as possible in what I wear.

When do you remember coming into your own in terms of style?

I was 16 when I first discovered I had an interest in fashion and I've been experimenting with it ever since. I believe fashion keeps evolving and is a reflection of the age we are in.

Who are your go-to brands?

I have a long list, but Cameo, Reformation, Maryam Nassir Zadeh, and Maurie & Eve are my favourites at the moment.

What are your favourite trends for the season?

Oversized, loose-cut trousers and bell-bottoms. I also love long, over-the-knee tops paired with jeans.

Where is your favourite city to shop?

I loved shopping in Bangkok when I visited! I discovered several concept stores,which had such a unique take on fashion.

How does travel influence your style?

Every city I visit definitely influences me in different ways. I like to observe people wherever I go, take note of how they dress and take bits and pieces to adapt into my own style.

Looking ahead to 2016, what are your favourite collections?

Ellery, Paper London, Natasha Zinko, Johanna Ortiz, and Rosie Assoulin.

What is your most prized fashion possession?

My new season Chloé Hudson bag.

What’s next on your wish list?

A crepe blazer from Bouguessa – a French-Algerian designer in the region.

Where’s your favourite place to shop for your daughter?

Jacadi and Mamas & Papas.

What were your inspirations when decorating your home?

Living in Dubai sometimes makes you miss that feeling of comfort and warmth that you have at home, which for me is Lebanon. The most important factor when decorating was keeping it cosy.

Your favourite interiors shop?

Luz De Luna.
