Tom Cruise jumps from the tallest building in the world Burj Khalifa & poses with HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashed Al Maktoum

It is Tom Cruise's most scary jump since he sprang off Oprah Winfrey's sofa.
The hollywood star jumps from the tallest building in the world & Poses with great visionary  HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashed Al Maktoum on the Red carpet of Dubai International Film Festival. What could he ask for more !

I so admired the decision of Tom Cruise who chose NOT to use a stuntman to jump from the world's tallest building — but opted to do it HIMSELF for his new movie. have a look at the making of  from our stunning Burj!

Chanel // The Metiers d'Art Show // 2012 Pre-Fall Collection

At the Galerie Courbe in the Grand Palais in Paris, Karl Lagerfeld prsented the Chanel extravaganza, Indian-inspired fashion show as guests dined on opulent 'runway' feast fit for royalty.

The Metiers d'Art show, launched in 2003 as a homage to the label's workshop.

But the event was tinged with a touch of sadness as couturier Francois Lesage, head of the renowned embroidery atelier acquired by Chanel in 2002, died last week, aged 83. But as usual, the show must go on - and go on it did.

They dined using gold-plated cutlery and were served by waiters throughout the show - a far cry from the champagne and canapes usually served.

Models, adorned with accessories including head-jewellery and turbans - also for men - walked the epic runway sporting the 2012 pre-fall collection. 

Creative director Lagerfeld often looks abroad for inspiration & I love that ! as I strongly believe in Cultural Diffusion through fashion...you know that:)

Black.Green.White & Red Fashion Week-End . UAE National Day 2011

Happy 40th Anniversary my beloved UAE!  Even fashion can get patriotic :)  with limited editions, color blocking and amazing jewels! The trendiest colors for the week-end were inspired by the Spirit of Union as well, the Union of black, green, white & Red... Some got ridiculously over the top and got banned! for example Puma who apologized to UAE consumers and ordered the removal of the controversial shoes that were designed with the colours of the national flag.
Couldn't help but mention the famous magnetic Pin that was slipping down all the time on the Abayas, Shirts & Thobes, I would ban the people who came up with this magslipping idea! Now Check out my picks!

Also I have to mention Andrew Osama Fathy's interpretation of the Google Logo that was chosen out of 20,000 entries from 30 schools! I love it.
