A luxury consultant, fashion expert and style icon, Haya Maraka is all things we wish to be (her style is literal #Goals). When we’re not scrolling through her perfectly curated Insta feed or obsessing about her wardrobe finds, Haya is one of the individuals who we look up to as a fashion maven. Inspired by her candour, wit & charm, we sat down with the talent extraordinaire to discuss her lifestyle essentials, favourite music & the women who inspire her.

 




The Favourite Workout: I am not so good with consistency; not in my day-to-day life or in my workouts! But I am working on it! When I do workout I love to swim laps, do pilates and of course dance! I love to dance. I am hoping to start ballet soon, once I am settled in Paris, but in the meantime I wake up every morning and play music and dance in my room. Dancing immediately puts me in a better mood. |

The Advice You Live By: Hard to go with one piece of advice, but one way I live by for sure, is do what makes you happy, if it doesn’t make you happy, remove it from your life immediately. Live life to the fullest! Live, live live and always follow your intuition. |
