Circuit training with my personal trainer, it’s my caffeine kick!

My mood dictates my outfit 99 per cent of the time, but comfort is key.

Three items you can’t live without?

Burt’s Bees lip balm, Jose Eber curling iron and my iPhone.

Favourite place you like to go to in Kuwait?

Kuwait City, it’s thriving with gentrification.

Complete the sentence: My perfect holiday would be…

On a yacht in St Barths.

It’s a close call between Balenciaga and Gucci. Loving their FW16 collections.

The Fray – they’re my favourite band so I would listen to them sing all day.

Deadlines, negative people, and sold out items!

What’s your personal motto?

Choose a job you love, and you will never work a day in your life.

How do you want the world to remember you?

I want to be remembered for shifting the jewellery scene in Kuwait and breaking the jewellery mould in the region.
