A few things this week





♥ If you are in the process of setting up a nursery or updating your little one bedroom, you are gonna love AlexandAlexa’s Home and Décor debuts. The children’s e-retailer has been at the forefront of fashion for over five years, now expending its stylish portfolio into homewares, bedroom and playroom decoration and lifestyle designs for kids. Love the wallpaper and wall-design options, such as Hibou Home’s Scandinavian-inspired paper in soft, muted tones. You will also find storage solution with Ferm Living’s ‘Studio’. We discovered and loved Sew Heart Felt, animal rugs designed in England and hand crafted by women in rural Nepal, this brand is completely chemical-free, eco-friendly and organic. Don't miss the chic collection of party ware for your little one's garden party.
The Home & Décor collection at AlexandAlexa allows parents to access the cream of interior styling for kids without having to hit the high street. Their website is available now in both Arabic and English. www.alexandalexa.com/home-school

" Its friendly ambience is matched by its authentic traditional cooking – the kind of cooking that takes each and every diner back to the rural kitchen of the Lebanese grandma they may or may not have ever had. It is the perfect blend of contemporary comforts and traditional tastes." www.facebook.com/leilarestaurants
