FrontRow sat down with the fighting fit Dalia Abdelrahman (@daliadeee) to learn about her coming of age story as an influencer, what challenges she faces everyday and what she plans on doing next. Here’s Dalia:
“Anything is possible if you put your mind to it” – Pretty obvious, right? Honestly, everyone has heard this phrase more than once, but when you actually put this to use, literally ANYTHING is possible.
We love looking at the world through Samuel W Turner’s eyes; that way it’s always perfectly-photographed. However, we at FrontRow Arabia find that his dapper-wear, delicious meals and stunning landscape shots aren’t enough – we want more. WHICH IS WHY we asked a few questions to get to know the man behind Fearsam.
Q: At which store would you like to max-out your credit card?
A: In Dubai, that would have to be Harvey Nichols. Pretty standard I know! Internationally, probably Size. That place should have a spending cap! One more thing I have to say is keep an eye out for Retrograde Concept Store (@retrogradedxb) – launching at Sole. I’ve said enough!
Naomi D’Souza; half Mechanical engineer, half internet icon. We can’t get enough of her incredible food and travel adventures around the Middle East. FrontRow decided to ask her a few questions to learn more about the woman who manages to balance it all.
Q: At which store would you like to max-out your credit card?
A: Sephora and Virgin Radio Megastore. I can never have enough makeup or gadgets!
Mais schools us with her killer outfits everyday. After a bit of stalking on her blog, we found out that she actually didn’t like taking pictures as a teenager! So we at FrontRow decided to get to the bottom of this and find out more about how the camera-shy teen turned into the Instagram queen she is today!
Q: At what store would like to max out your credit card?
A: Zara & Dior
Q: What was your favorite toy as a kid?
A: Typical answer unfortunately but Barbies!! haha
Salman is famous for his ability to capture the essence of Dubai with a simple photo. With every post, he renews your love for the city time and time again. But what about the man behind the camera? FrontRow decided to ask a few questions to see if we can capture the essence of Salman.
Q: At which store would you like to max-out your credit card?
A: That would be ZARA.
Q: What was your favorite toy as a kid?
A: LEGO.
Alyssa Nicole helps us see the beauty in everything. She perfectly combines simplicity and elegance in every single one of her blog posts – whether it be about fashion, food or having fun. At FrontRow, we find ourselves wanting to more about the woman behind techemoda.com – so we decided to do exactly that and asked Alyssa a few questions about herself.
Q: At which store would you like to max-out your credit card?
A: Moodfabrics! They have a massive selection of beautiful fabric, and I would love to use all of them to design apparel 🙂
Q: What was your favourite toy as a kid?
A: I didn’t really play with toys when I was a kid but one of the things I loved, up until know actually, is the Playstation and Xbox. I enjoyed playing video games such as Resident Evil Nemesis & Devil May Cry. Actually, these two are my favourite!
Zahra blows our minds on the regular with her breathtaking food fusions. How does someone even come up with Lasagna cupcakes, let alone absolutely nail them? As a result, in hopes to understand the genius behind the Shawarma Spring roll, FrontRow decided to ask Zahra Abdalla some hard-hitting questions.
Q: At which store would you like to max-out your credit card?
A: I have an obsession with all things related to the kitchen. When I travel, I am always on the hunt to buy unique food styling props. In Dubai, you can always find me picking up new pieces from Crate & Barrel, Pottery & Barn and Tavola Shop. I can never buy enough Le Creuset Pots!
Faith shows us what happens when your love for dress-up grows with you. Her blog is a tell-all for what it’s like to be a travelling, incredibly stylish mother. But what about the stuff the www.thelookbureau.com doesn’t tell us about? We at FrontRow decided it was high time someone asked the real questions to find out about the real Faith…
Q: At which store would you like to max-out your credit card?
A: I would definitely max out my credit card at Forever21. I’ve been an avid shopper since college, and I’m all about quantity, more is always better than less. It provides affordable pieces for every girl’s need, size, style and mood. From cocktail, to casual, to active, to intimate wear – they have you covered. I really wouldn’t need to go anywhere else to get my wardrobe fix for everyday ensembles.
The incredible Moey Shawash showers us on the daily with his shots of mouth-watering food, relatable quotes and global escapades.

Here’s what he had to say!
