I’m just going to start this off by saying, ”I’m Irene….and I’m a Twinaholic”. Yes, you’ve heard right, I’m obsessed with ‘twinning’ with my four year old daughter (and my two year old son given half the opportunity – is ‘tripleting’ a thing?). Even if they don’t share my enthusiasm and don’t know it yet, I can’t help myself! Anyone else? Just me?

It seems the fashion industry has now caught on to the whole ‘mini-me’ trend and twinning has taken on a whole new fashionable journey. Let’s be honest, who doesn’t love mini furry animals, fun-size chocolate bars and mini-size cosmetics and makeup – super cute right? Anything that is a tiny, identical version of something else is instantly adorable and has that ‘awwwwww’ factor!

Instagram and celebrities have a lot to answer for in my opinion when it comes to making ‘matchy matchy’ with your parents a ‘thing’ now. I mean, if Beyoncé can do it…

Who knew there is now such a world dedicated to all things ‘twinning’?! I didn’t until I began researching into it all for this post! Twinning is big business now so I’m going to share a few of my favourite brands I found plus a couple based here in Dubai which I love – to get you all ‘matchy-mathcy’ with your little ones. WARNING: The following may incur serious ‘buying-frenzy’ notions, just don’t blame me….OK!

Shopping for a stroller, mama? Yup it can be overwhelming – there are some that lie flat, others that fold up like an umbrella, double or triple versions if your family is ever expanding and just SOOOO many to choose from! Other than make coffee (although we’re sure someone will invent one that does soon), strollers can pretty much do it all these days – so we’ve filtered out a few that we think are a little bit special, that combine style with safety and more, to help you with your decision making.

Oh, the weather outside is… actually, pretty perfect, mamas (okay, we’ve even heard people complaining that it’s too cold!). Now that temperatures have dropped it’s prime time in Dubai to embrace the great outdoors as a fam. But what to do when the beach beckons and your swimsuit has seen better days? Sand Dollar is one of our fave finds for beach and swimwear, with essentials for the whole family and delivery available in just 3 hours too! Oh and if you’re worried about braving the water – they’ve just introduced some fabulous winter warmers to keep you cosy after a lap or two in the pool or a splash about in the sea – these towelling ponchos are perfect for all the family and come in some gorgeous designs featuring everything from pom poms to zipped fronts. They even come personalised if you wish at no extra charge, simply let one of the Sand Dollar team know and they’ll get it embroidered with initials or a name and delivered to your door the next day.We love!

Looking for new designs in beachwear for your fashion forward littles? Yup, Sand Dollar have got those too – ranging from matching rash vest and shorts to bikinis and swimwear with towelling sets and kaftans to combine (great Christmas presents!). And for mamas looking for plus cup sizes and supportive swimwear, Sand Dollar’s Rosa Faia range is just the thing. Oh and if you don’t fancy hitting the beach but want to still sport the sun kissed glow this season then the Bali Body skin care range including the bronzing lotion is a must (and perfect as stocking fillers too).

Prefer to try before you buy? The super cute Sand Dollar store located on the ground floor of Fairmont, The Palm Jumeirah, is open daily from 9am to 8pm, and will allow you to do just that. Can’t get to the swimwear? Then the swimwear shall come to you!
