The hottest months of the year are here. While the whole world waits for summer to enjoy the outdoors, we stay inside our comfortable, temperature-controlled homes. We dream about destinations around the world, mostly summer spots where the sun is a little gentler than here. For our combined July & August issue, we uncovered partnerships between luxury fashion brands and hotels and selected unique stays offering exciting experiences for the season. Hot weather wardrobe, here we go! Find out what to wear on our fashion pages. We got pampered at Waldorf Astoria Doha West Bay with a full-body massage and for a full-on local summer getaway, Sheraton Grand Doha Resort & Convention Hotel's Endless Summer Escape deal is the way to go.

Food is an essential theme for us and we visited The Diplomatic Club for a Japanese meal in Nassayem Qatar. This issue's drive was behind the wheel of the new Volvo XC90 B5
