Every American influencer is going to the Hamptons this summer and ngl it’s giving us fomo. Yep, the quiet luxury IT location is not near the UAE, but do we even need it? We’ve got those wealthy, summer by the beach vibes.
Still, if you really want a dose of that Hamptons energy, then there are very vibey restaurants in Dubai where you can indulge in that old money aesthetic. *Laughs in money.*
Here’s to living your best Serena and Blair life! 🥂

La Petit Maison
Why you’ll 💘: LPM is not the Hamptons, its inspo is driven from the French Riviera, a 8-hour plane ride away. However, it’s definitely giving old money! Chic and classy, and the walls are adorned with beautiful pieces that we imagine Micheal’s house would be.
