\n\tBest TV show\/film you\u2019ve ever seen? \u202f<\/strong>\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tI don\u2019t love anything too dark or too serious. I get too engaged, so if it\u2019s something too heavy or emotional, it can really drag me down. So I avoid things that are intense or too dark. I enjoy shows that take me somewhere different. I love sitcoms like \u201cFriends,\u201d and shows like \u201cSex and the City.\u201d I also like \u201cUgly Betty.\u201d People make fun of me for that, but I loved it because it is just a happy show. It was a simple love story, enough to lift you up and keep the storyline going. Other than that, I do not follow a lot of series.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst TV show\/film you\u2019ve ever seen?\u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tLike I said, I really don\u2019t like dark things. I know it\u2019s some people\u2019s cup of tea, but it\u2019s definitely not mine. I don\u2019t like those.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBest personal style moment so far? <\/strong>\u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWhenever I feel most in my element and feeling the look. I love vintage. I have my own big collection of vintage pieces, and I love mixing them with modern pieces and with pieces from local brands. I love creating that fusion that I feel truly represents who I am, and kind of shows the possibility of translating different cultures, different realms, different eras, into personal style.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst personal style moment? \u202f<\/strong>\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tLet\u2019s say my late teens. Well\u2026 maybe from 14 till my early 20s? I was very experimental \u2014 to a fault. I look at pictures and I\u2019m, like, \u2018What was I doing?\u2019 I experimented with my makeup, with my hair \u2014 I dyed my hair so many different colors, so many different styles. But, honestly, as embarrassing as it was, I\u2019m also grateful for that phase, because I feel like I got a lot of things out of my system. It helped me shape my own way of styling and enabled me to explore myself better without having any restrictions.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBest accessory for a little black dress? \u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tLess is more. Adding just one simple piece of jewelry adds so much character. I love that kind of dynamic, and I think it says a lot about a person\u2019s personal style.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst accessory for a little black dress? \u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tJust over-accessorizing. You want to keep it chic \u2014 elevated and refined. You don\u2019t want to overwhelm the look. You allow the dress to shine, and when the dress shines, you shine as well. When you don\u2019t overcrowd the look, you wear the outfit, the outfit doesn\u2019t wear you.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBest fashion trend of 2024? <\/strong>\u202f\u202f\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tI\u2019m not really a trends person. I\u2019m aware of them, but I don\u2019t necessarily implement them in my personal style.\u202fBut, I really enjoy that it\u2019s heading away from loud, in-your-face fashion \u2014 the prints, the logos, all that busy style \u2014\u202fand people are now opting for a more sophisticated, understated look. Simpler looks allow you to show your taste better, in my opinion. I think Gen Z are a big part of that change. They are dressing more true to themselves. They see fashion as a way of personal expression, as opposed to just following what trends are out there.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst fashion trend of 2024? \u202f<\/strong>\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tThe worst thing is when you see people lost in their outfits, and you can tell it\u2019s really them following whatever they read, whatever they saw on someone else, rather than personally expressing themselves.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBest advice you\u2019ve ever been given?\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tWith everyone having access to everyone\u2019s life and what everyone\u2019s doing with all these different websites and apps, I feel like there is a lot of, sometimes subconscious, pressure, where people see everyone\u2019s journey and then get overwhelmed. But, at a relatively young age, someone told me, \u2018Don\u2019t worry. Everything happens to different people at different times. Everyone has a different journey.\u2019 I think that allows me to be more content and live life more peacefully. And have healthier relationships.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst advice you\u2019ve ever been given?\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tAny advice that pushes you to be something that isn\u2019t who you are. Some people give advice where they\u2019re suggesting that you change the core of who you are \u2014 your values, what you stand for. I always think that never works.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBest book you\u2019ve ever read? <\/strong>\u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tI really enjoy Iraqi author Ali Al-Wardi. I find him quite insightful, especially his writings about social dynamics and society. He was such a visionary that even when you read his works today, you find parallels with our society. They tell you a lot about people and who we are as societies and communities.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst book you\u2019ve ever read? \u202f<\/strong>\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tIf I don\u2019t like a book, or I\u2019m not connecting with it, I\u2019ll just put it down.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBest thing to do when you\u2019re feeling low?\u202f\u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tWhat I do if I am overwhelmed or feeling some kind of stress or anxiety take solo walks. I love just grabbing a cup of coffee then going on a walk by myself, and clearing my mind and allowing myself to settle. Even if you don\u2019t resolve the things that are causing you anxiety, I think you’ll return from the walk feeling a bit more settled and you can probably make better decisions and think more clearly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBut if you mean you\u2019re sad or depressed, then I think there’s nothing better than spending time with someone you really trust \u2014 a family member or a very good friend. There\u2019s so much power and human communication, as long as it\u2019s with the right people. It could also be a therapist. Just spending time with someone who can understand, knows how to listen, and could give you helpful advice based on them knowing you.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst thing to do when you\u2019re feeling good? \u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tI think our brains sabotage us. We don\u2019t allow ourselves to fully immerse ourselves in whatever is making us feel good. So I think you just have to try to relish it, and not think about other things. Just allow yourself to celebrate whatever it is that is making you feel good. Don\u2019t take away from that. And make sure you share whatever is making you feel good with the right people.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBest holiday destination? \u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tMy three favorite cities \u2014 which I will never, ever be bored of \u2014 are New York, Paris and Cairo. Those cities have personalities. If you walk on the street by yourself, you don\u2019t feel alone. They have so much character.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst holiday destination? \u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tYou see some people that go to the same place every year and do the same thing, see the same people. They don\u2019t explore or expand their horizon. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s \u2018the worst\u2019 \u2014 it\u2019s just unwise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBest subject at school? \u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tIt makes me sound like a nerd, but I really enjoyed math. I really enjoyed equations and breaking them down and finding solutions.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst subject at school? \u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tPhysics is something that I just studied to pass my exams and get the grades. A lot of things did not add up for me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tBest thing to do to ensure you have a productive day?<\/strong> \u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tI feel like starting the day right \u2014 whatever that looks like for you \u2026 maybe working out, maybe meditation, maybe spending time with family \u2014 and starting relatively early, sets you up well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWorst thing to do when you\u2019re trying to have a productive day? \u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n\tHave a lot of distractions around. I think we became so addicted to checking our emails or messages, that it really can kill productivity. But we can try to control it as much as we can by limiting the distractions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
