The Eid 2020 Wishlist

Finding the perfect something to mark the end of fasting never felt so good…

Eid al-Fitr is the special occasion we’ve all been waiting for after the coronavirus served us with a couple of hard months in lockdown. Juggling work from home, homeschooling and the usual chores has made it a particularly difficult time for women, not to mention all the anxiety about someone getting sick and the uncertain future. Knowing you totally deserve to be spoilt during the most testing of times, we’ve put together a curated list of the latest must-haves. Whether gifted to you by a loved one or you decide to treat yourself, these will put a great big smile on your face, which, by the way, is one of the easiest ways to feel more positive.

Recently, most of us have realised life really is too short, so if there’s a year that calls for going all out, it’s this one. We’ve picked out some bedazzling watches and jewellery, whether you’re into a pendulum with a healing crystal core, something inspired by luck charm medallions or a piece studded with diamonds, deemed the King of All Birthstones. Plus, we’ve chosen some magical emerald-infused jewellery, perfect for those with a birthday this month too. Some head-turning accessories that ensure you stand out in the style stakes are another grand way to celebrate in the chicest of ways.

And since our homes have become more or less 24-hour sanctuaries, we can’t think of a better time to spruce them up with a statement ornament.  Additionally, scents and flowers in the home are perfect for keeping us feeling uplifted, while a calligraphy- sprinkled decorative piece that reminds us about what’s really important always adds that special touch. Beauty lovers can celebrate by opening up and experimenting with some really special gift sets, and we haven’t forgotten about all the foodies out there who are waiting for an excuse to tuck into some delectable goodies.
