Sweet December

The last month of the year and busier than ever, as the last autumn leaves have fallen covered in a blanket of snow, it’s waking up to cappuccinos and lovely biscotti, dreaming of elegant color palettes for the season, filled with sparkle and shine smitten with the idea of simple and classic silver and gold, wreaths of holly, fairy lights and candlelight, gilded garlands and glittering sequins, and the most beautifully decorated trees, in a place where the sun shines brightly, spending december on sandy beaches and outdoor holiday party dinners. And while spending the holidays in Dubai; far, far away from swirling and softly falling slow, not a slight possibility of a winter wonderland in december, couldn’t possibly have it any other way.
