Gigi Hadid tends to keep her personal life mostly private, especially now she is expecting her first child with singer Zayn Malik, but over the weekend she couldn’t help but share her revamped New York apartment.
The model took to Instagram to showcase her brightly coloured Manhattan home, and her eclectic interior eye surprised even us. There seems to be elements of bohemia as well as references to her Middle Eastern background – especially seen in the lounge area that features relaxed seating in various colours of velvet.

Eccentric rugs (particularly on the staircase) could also be paying tribute to her Palestinian roots, while rustic dining room setting and colourful pasta-facade cabinets have an Italian riviera feel.

Quirky touches continues to be dotted throughout her spacious home. The guest bathroom wall is covered in retro New Yorker covers; there is a mustard yellow vintage-inspired parlour chair in what appears to be a dressing room; and we spotted plenty of colourful wall art throughout.
She took a minimal approach to what could be the master bedroom and master bathroom, playing with neutral tones, mood lighting, mixture of wood, marble and metal to create a calming yet edgy space.
We didn’t get a glimpse of the potential baby room but we are sure Hadid is nesting in style.
Feeling inspired? Here are five great takeways that you can implement in your home now.
Pasta can be a form of decorative art, mix shapes and colours
 
Bathroom reading takes on a whole new meaning. Try collating your favourite magazine covers (Emirates Woman has plenty of worthy covers to stick up)

Jazz up your staircase with a colourful runner, it will make getting your steps in for the day a lot more fun

A wooden bedframe allows you to bring a bit of nature to your space of rest. Add bright wall décor but keep the bed linen neutral
 
There’s nothing like a full size mirror to make you bathroom feel even bigger than it is. Wide countertops also provide extra storage

Over the weekend, HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and the Ruler of Dubai visited a luxury resort in the city, and now we know exactly where to spend the upcoming four-day break.

You may have already checked out our Eid staycations edit but if you’re looking for another special spot to unwind like a Dubai royal, then the Mandarin Oriental Jumeira ticks many of the boxes.
Let’s kick off with the fact that this weekend the beachfront resort is offering 15 per cent off their Best Available Rate for all nationals and residents of the UAE. With it being one the newest hotels in the city, all the 256 rooms and suites feel fresh and shiny (wait till you see the marble bathrooms) with many offering stunning views of the blue waters.
In addition, it is home to some of the top restaurants in the city like Tasca from Michelin-starred Portuguese chef Jose Avillez – ideal for dinner. No stay is complete without a visit to the spa that offers some of the best treatments including a vitamin boost therapy courtesy of the neighbouring The Elixir Clinic. Make sure to arrive early for your treatment to take full advantage of whirlpools, saunas and steam rooms.

On Friday we suggest booking in for Netsu brunch that is serving up some the best Japanese food in town including tiger prawns, lobster ceviche, grilled baby chicken and unique warayaki-style creations (dishes cooked on a straw fire grill) while the DJ brings an upbeat vibe to your weekend. Post-brunch you can chill at one of the five pools or walk it off on the pristine beach.
Stringent health and safety measures are in place to ensure a safe and comfortable experience for guests, at all times.
