    Life

    “This is a jumbo-coffee morning. I need coffee in an IV.” — Lorelai Gilmore
    This quote resonates with people who work 9-5 on most mornings. How else is one supposed to get through the eight hours of a work day? With a morning shot of caffeine, that’s how.
    With the UAE weather making it almost impossible to enjoy a hot cappucino or americano in the AM, it’s iced-coffee-to-the-rescue season. Plus, it almost feels like a treat you’re buying for yourself as a reward for adulting in this prickly heat.
    When it comes to iced coffees, not every place can make the cut. It has to be the perfect decoction of the espresso shot, milk of choice, ice and flavouring — no element can overpower the other.
    After trying and testing a couple of popular joints in Dubai, we’ve curated a list of the best iced coffee spots that you can pit stop at before head to work.

    7 of Sheikha Latifa’s most impactful quotes about Dubai

    Life

    by Sarah Joseph
    3 hours ago

    As Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairperson of Dubai Culture and Arts Authority and member of the Dubai Council celebrates her birthday this month, we look at the most meaningful quotes she has shared with the UAE.
    Besides being a role model to many, she constantly aspires to build an environment that’s conducive to empowering women and uplifting Dubai’s creative arts scene.
    To mark this special occasion, Emirates Woman digs through the archives to bring to light some of Sheikha Latifa’s most profound quotes about Dubai, women empowerment, collaboration and more.
    On moving towards a creative economy

    This month Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, attended the first ever graduation ceremony of the Dubai Institute of Design and Innovation (DIDI) which was held at Dubai’s Museum of the Future.
    As graduates completed the region’s first integrated bachelor’s degree in Design, Sheikha Latifa said “The graduation of the first Bachelors of Design class from DIDI represents another milestone in our progress toward a new vibrant creative economy.”
    “DIDI, the first multidisciplinary design programme in the Middle East of its kind, is one of the many pioneering programmes that encapsulate Dubai’s forward-looking spirit. For us to achieve our ambition for Dubai’s creative economy, we need to make sure the infrastructure and the right programmes and institutions are in place for future and current creatives to develop, grow and flourish,” she highlighted at the ceremony.
    On Dubai becoming a growing hub for knowledge enthusiasts

    At the inauguration of the Big Bad Wolf Books exhibition held between April 14 to 24, 2022, Sheikha Latifa toured the event and shared her positive feedback. With over 190 nationalities present across all fields including scientific, literary and humanitarian, this exhibition was launched to promote the concept of exchanging information.
    During the event, she said, “A strong culture of reading enables members of society to make significant contributions to the development of the Arab region and the advancement of their countries, in addition to driving creativity and innovation in various fields.”
    On collaboration
    With a major focus on enhancing the emirate’s cultural ecosystem, Sheikha Latifa has always laid emphasis on exploring different forms of collaboration.
    “Collaboration is integral to building a thriving creative and cultural sector,” she said during the World Conference on Creative Economy 2021 (WCCE) last year.
    She highlighted how Dubai Culture actively focuses on sustainable initiatives that make it a game-changer in the region. Through new collaborations, Dubai Culture is becoming a leading centre for blending artistic, educational and technological activities in the city.
    On the thriving artistic scene

    As global and regional talent continues to be at the helm of Dubai’s burgeoning art scene, Sheikha Latifa shared how Dubai Culture continues to nurture and grow this sector on a daily basis.
    “Everything I do within the Culture and Arts Authority is geared towards supporting the industry, is geared towards taking our creatives to a global stage, where they can be recognised internationally,” she told CNN in a previous interview.
    “A thriving cultural scene is actually a sign of a very stable country, a thriving country, a stable government.”
    On turning a vision into reality
    Dubai culture officially launched on March 8, 2008, under the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
    Showcasing the growth of the initiative, Sheikha Latifa launched ‘Dubai’s Culture & Heritage’ project on Google Arts & Culture, which she outlined was thanks to the innovation and foresight of her father.
    “Thanks to the vision and guidance of HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Dubai now holds a distinguished position on the global creative map,” she said. “We are proud that the city has truly become a global centre for arts, culture and creativity, a place where we empower and enable our home-grown talents, and welcome creatives from all over the world, offering them a home where they can thrive on a professional and personal level.”
    On praising the future generations
    As the Dubai arts and culture scene continues to flourish and grow, there’s a continuous stream of emerging talent and it’s something Her Highness is championing with the Global Grad Show, of which Dubai Culture is a strategic partner.
    With the launch of the event last year, Sheikha Latifa said: “Through the efforts of the thousands of brilliant young minds who engage with the program every year, a better future is being shaped, and enabling their growth means creating a more prosperous society for everyone. From Dubai we can all contribute to a better future.”
    On female empowerment

    Sheikha Latifa is consistently empowering women here in the UAE and across the globe, and it’s something she continues to highlight. Back in 2020 at the Global Forum Dubai, Her Highness emphasised the importance of supporting women.
    “It’s important to support women in whatever they want to do,” she said. “I believe the support of the government is crucial in driving women forward. I see women continuing to go from strength to strength.”
    As she continues to foster her role at Dubai Culture & Arts Authority, she’s constantly vouching for women to achieve great things and to receive more opportunities in the country to flourish.

    On April 25, the daughter of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum, former Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance of the United Arab Emirates, and Deputy Ruler of Dubai, Sheikha Hissa, married Sheikh Maktoum bin Majid Al Maktoum.

    The wedding was attended by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai; His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai; and other pivotal members of the royal family.
    Known for their impeccable taste, the Dubai Royal family is all about one-of-a-kind grandeur.  Marble-engraved invitations with gold arabic scriptures were sent out for the much-awaited nuptials.

    MOD Designs, a prestigious luxury design company based in Dubai, had the honour of organising the highly esteemed Henna night for Her Royal Highness Sheikha Hissa. The discussions about the design commenced in late March, and the development process began in mid-April, progressing through a series of intricate and complex stages.
    In collaboration with MOD Design Events, a custom-built structure was meticulously crafted to bring the Sheikha’s vision to life. This magnificent structure, situated within the enchanting grounds of The Zabeel Palace, was designed to accommodate six hundred distinguished Sheikhas from the GCCc region.

    Amidst the palace’s meticulously manicured gardens, MOD Design Events created a sprawling and awe-inspiring structure that embodied the essence of heritage and modernity. The structure was adorned with over six million stems of lavender, flown in from Paris, alongside impressive seven-meter-high stone-carved artworks, resonating with the evening’s theme. This captivating blend of past and present showcased a mesmerizing symbiosis.
    The custom-built structure incorporated essential facilities, such as functioning comfort stations, exquisitely hand-carved stone dining tables, a grand powder room entrance walkway, and an abundance of over 30,000 hydrangeas and assorted blooms, all elegantly arranged in shades of lavender to complement the evening ambiance. The structure also featured a magnificent glass dome, tailor-made to the precise specifications of MOD Design Events, completing the bespoke experience for the occasion.

    MOD Design Events is a renowned luxury Maison situated in Dubai, U.A.E., founded and owned by Sanad Ibrahim & Mohammad Alhouri. The Maison specializes in creating luxurious event designs, including weddings, architecture, interiors, flowers, and all aspects of bespoke event design.

    2 hours ago

    Sheikha Mahra Al Maktoum shares images with her husband Sheikh Mana.
    Her Highness Sheikha Mahra bint Mohammed bin Rashid got married to Sheikh Mana in April and the wedding reception was held last weekend.
    For the big night, HH Sheikha Mahra wore a majestic white gown by Dubai-based designer Ezra Couture. Complementing her husband Sheikh Mana’s traditional Emirati attire, the bride looked divine in a white voluminous ballgown with a diaphanous veil.
    Keeping it elegant and chic, HH Sheikha Mahra kept the jewels minimal to a diamond bracelet, watch and rings.
    Holding a bouquet populated with dainty baby’s breath flowers, the royal couple lovingly embraced each other and shared a few moments with their ardent followers.
    Back in April, Her Highness Sheikha Mahra Al Maktoum and her fiancé Sheikh Mana Al Maktoum signed the marriage contract and shared this news through their respective Instagram accounts. His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s daughter Sheikha Mahra got engaged to Sheikh Mana Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Bin Mana Al Maktoum in March.
    On 5th April 2023, both Sheikha Mahra and Sheikh Mana shared that they celebrated their Katb Al-Kitaab — the official marriage ceremony and signing of the marriage contract through social media.
    As the Royal couple begins their married life together, we wish them a happy married life ahead.
