This story is a social one, that describes situations that can happen in reality, it shows the different ways people respond to the same situation and the different lessons people learn from the same experience, depending on their surroundings and the amount of support they get from the present people in their life. And how these surrounding factors play an important role in the differences in reactions and ways of dealing with situations, and we see a big difference in personalities as a result of the way they handle things. Here's the thing about writing characters no matter how horrible your character is you will always love them because your the only one capable of understanding their actions. It's a Sarcastic feeling were you feel bad for a character's life knowing damn well it's you who's screwing them up for entertainment.DON'T STRESS YOURSELF WAITING FOR SOMETHING THAT'S NOT YOURS.Writer Karina3 FROM THE WRITER
BACKSTAGEIn new York, Vienna lemme playing Raghad Nasser took us backstage before Karina 2007 series. It takes over 100 workers backstage for the show to run smoothly.this includes 10world-class hairstylists_and at least 10 make-up artistsVienna:Its know eight minutes before the show my and hairs not finished, it's gonna start late, and I'm gonna stab my makeup artist if he doesn't shut up.Vienna:What are you gonna do to make the show happen today Show manger:we have to get the girls on stage on time Vienna get on stage know Vienna:ohh wow can you believe itVienna:This is the part of the show that you don't normally see because this is were we get dressed and we're all basically naked so you can't come back here4

He's request was shut down by karina along with a firm scolding, and ever since then he has been in the worst mood possible, you can literally hear him screaming at someone on the other side of the monitor. We’ve been on hour twelve of this shoot, and I have exactly four minutes before they call me back to set. I’m currently trying to memorize three pages of monologue, and if someone doesn't bring me a pack of cigarettes in the next sixty seconds, I might actually pass out right here in this chair.

RudyBy raghad thoughts Photographed by her memorySOMETIMES SOMETHING'S AREN'T HOW THEY APPEAR5
For my father, sometimes our heroes don't Make it to the end. I don't understand why we have to be okay when someone dies. Why do we need to get back to normal. Someone, you have spent your life with, someone you shared yourself with, someone who meant so much to you and suddenly they are gone. Gone forever, leaving a voide that can never be filled. You see them everywhere, places you laughed at onec, places you made memories at. But still I'm supposed to be okay , WHO even made this rule, who dicded that you should bear it knowing that it's the most unbearable in this cruel world. I would give anything just to see my dad's face again, anything to huge him again, to tell him how much I miss him, to show him how much I have grown up, and how much this world hurt me, I want to tell him how much I'm proud being his daughter, And how I miss being your little girl I miss not worrying about anything knowing that your her. You didn't say goodbye and a part of me believes that means you're coming back. I MISS YOU BABA A part of me still doesn't want you to see me baba I have changed alot. I tried I really tried but pain doesn't that to people. And not that this fucked up world noticed, nobody noticed my sadness until it turned into anger, and then I'm the bad person.6 here is a last time for everything- but I didn't know it then. the last time you called me, the last time we laughed ,the last time I held your hand without knowing I would never hold it again. Funny how the end never tells that it's her- it just stands quietly at the door, waiting for you to notice. Heaven needed him But not more than me R T

As the undisputed enigma of New York’s high society, Raghad Al-Laith has traded family boardrooms for the blinding flashbulbs of Manhattan’s fashion elite. Recently, she turned heads at a charity gala by debuting a breathtaking, custom- structured look: a razor-sharp Parisian corset worn beneath a, midnight-black Abaya, heavily embroidered with authentic gold threadwork. It is a striking pivot that screams old-money power with a dangerously modern, cynical twist. From her signature oversized Tom Ford sunglasses to her diamond-encrusted Cartier choker,8IT WELLFAR FROM BLENDING INTO THE PREDICTABLE UPPER EAST SIDE ELITE, RAGHAD AL-LAITH IS ONCE AGAIN REWRITING THE SARTORIAL RULEBOOK. BY MERGING THE SHARP, UNAPOLOGETIC TAILORING OF WESTERN HAUTE COUTURE WITH THE RICH, FLOWING LEGACY OF TRADITIONAL ARAB SILHOUETTES, SHE HAS CRAFTED A CHILLINGLY ELITE AESTHETIC ENTIRELY HER OWN.every element of her look is designed to delineate status. She handles her public presentation with the same cold precision she applies to her private life, using her wardrobe as a shield. "I approach my clothing like an architectural armor," she reportedly told a confidante during a private viewing in Paris. "I start with an untouchable aesthetic—an edge that separates me from the crowd. My outfits must always have that imposing structure, but with a nod to the heavy, dark complexity of my roots. Hopefully, when people look at me, they understand they are looking at someone who cannot be compromised."WEAR
"SHE'S ICONIC" SOMEONE BECOMES ICONIC WHEN IT SETS THE ULTIMATE STANDARD—RETAINING ITS POWER, INFLUENCE, AND CAPTIVATING EDGE LONG AFTER THE HYPE FADES.By Raghad Photography by Angelina9
to orchestrating her own high-end endeavors, her influence remains unmatched. But it's not just about the millions spent or the archival designer pieces she wears with a careless, detached elegance; it's the razor-sharp, toxic attitude she brings with them. Blending an innate, old-money instinct with an unforgiving modern ego, she treats the world like her private stage, using fashion not to fit in, but to build a cold, beautiful wall between herself and the rest of society. She has effectively redefined what it means to carry a powerful name, making it very clear that she answers to absolutely no one. And the fashion and social worlds have taken note. Her latest public appearances have marked a defining moment —proving she is no longer just a wealthy daughter of society; she is a chilling muse. With luxury campaigns, an untouchable reputation, and rumors swirling of her next major move in the luxury industry, it’s clear that Raghad is here to rule for the long run. She represents a new wave of modern aristocracy: elite, detached, and culturally dominant. And if her last name opened the door, her brilliant, chilling arrogance is what’s keeping it locked from the inside.TO BE TRULY ICONIC IS TO TRANSCEND FLEETING TRENDS AND BECOME AN INSTANT, PERMANENT SYMBOL IN OUR CULTURAL MEMORY. IT DESCRIBES THAT RARE PERSON, LOOK, OR DESIGN SO DISTINCTIVE AND UNIVERSALLY RECOGNIZED THAT IT EFFORTLESSLY DEFINES AN ENTIRE ERA OR STATE OF MIND. FROM THE TIMELESS SILHOUETTE OF A LEGENDARY HEEL TO A BOUNDARY-PUSHING POP CULTURE MOMENT.10Who’s that girl? aghad Al-Laith is confidently stepping out of the traditional bounds cast by her family’s legacy, proving she’s not just an heiress to a vast fortune—she is a force of chilling sophistication in her own right. Born into absolute privilege, she was raised away from the mundane realities of the world, entering the public eye entirely on her own unapologetic terms. From her early debut in the elite social circles of New York and the Middle East, she made it clear from the start: this wouldn't be a story about living quietly in someone else’s spotlight. She was building her own kingdom of cold luxury.Her trajectory has been swift, calculated, and entirely intentional. Handpicking her public appearances, her inner circle, and the luxury houses she deigns to associate with, Raghad has become the undisputed face of an uncompromising generation of elite youth. It is a presence that introduces her porcelain beauty and self- assured, almost piercing gaze to a world that simply cannot look away. From front-row seats at Milan and Paris Fashion Weeks—where she sits draped in dark, expensive silks, looking thoroughly unimpressed by the frantic crowds around her— R

12“She said what? Honestly, ignore her. She's just a jealous slut who couldn't handle not being the star of the show. Raghad would never care about her opinion, and neither do I” Vienna lemme“I don't like her, period. People mostly like her because she's a TV character and she's pretty, but if you met her in reality, you would never like her. She's just as arrogant as the girl playing her” Jena yasinOpinions“As a model, acting for the first time was a challenge, and playing Raghad was even a bigger challenge. But I'm glad that I was given this opportunity, and Raghad will always be a big part of my life. I really grew to love her” Vienna lemme“It was hard. This character's clothing required the most effort out of everyone in the cast, and I really poured all my effort into her look. I won't lie, styling her will be missed” Custom disgner“Raghad is the fashion icon I always hoped to be. She's just so effortless. And every time Vienna walks on set dressed as her, I can't help but look at her clothes and wish i was wearing them” Roma collen“She's a human. She's not an angel nor a demon. She makes mistakes and has unfavorable traits, but her life was never easy. People judge her for being spoiled, but they don't see the pressure she was under” Karina“ will Their be a happy ending, oh gosh um it's written by Karina obviously it won't be the happiest I…I mean don't want to spoil anything watch the series and you will see ” Zara Marlon“ yes I did have to die my Brown hair for this role I also stopped doing fashion shows for two months because my schedule was packed with filming ” Vienna lemme“ I did take a few things home, I took half off raghad's shoes and alot off skirts actually the one I'm Currently wearing is ragged's ” Vienna lemme Vienna lemme
LET'S WATCHBy rudy Photography by Raghad's camera13LET'S GO FOR A DRIVE AROUND NEW YORK, BECAUSE IF THEIRS ANYTHING THAT ALL NEW YORK GIRLS HAVE IN COMMON IS THEIR LOVE FOR SHOPPING
14If you like it were it Confidence is the best accessory TOO EXPENSIVE FOR YOUR SKIN Raghad’s vanity table is a literal goldmine. Her morning starts with a La Mer facial mist, followed by a customized skincare routine that costs more than a New York rent. She is never seen without her signature oversized Tom Ford sunglasses—used mostly to roll her eyes at commoners—and her signature scent oud satin mood that announces her presence five minutes before she enters the room.THE 4 P.M. MORNINGS she doesn't do mornings. Her day officially begins in the afternoon, stepping out of her Park Avenue apartment with a scowl that keeps the paparazzi at a distance. Catch her sipping an iced matcha at the most exclusive cafes in Soho, ignoring her phone calls, and planning her next overseas getaway. She’s spoiled, she knows it, and She makes sure New York THE WAY SHE WEARS IT
LADIES AND GENTLEMAN HER15EDGE STYLE OF AN HEIRESS Raghad’s wardrobe is not about fashion; it is a declaration of superiority. Everyday to her is a fashion show, favoring sharp, structured silhouettes that make her look intimidating before she even speaks. Her style is a toxic mix of dark, expensive silks, towering Christian Louboutin heels, and statement jewelry that screams old-money power. She doesn't follow trends—she looks down on them. To Raghad, clothing is a tool to maintain a cold distance between herself and the rest of the world. If you look closely, every outfit is perfectly curated to say exactly one thing: 'You can look, but you could never afford to be me.'STYLE &CYNICISM FASHIONISTAtrue icon is not someone who blindly follows trends; that is a desperate attempt at relevance reserved for the commoners. Someone who obsessively mimics what is popular could be more correctly labeled as a "fashion parasite." In today’s high society, unapologetic luxury is not by any means a negative trait. Thanks to the legacy of modern dynasties, the image of the elite heiress has been sharpened into a much more powerful, intimidating, and successful feminine role. Raghad Al-Laith looks at fashion simply as an art, her own porcelain body as the canvas, and the chilling sense of style she displays along the way is nothing short of a masterpiece. She doesn't shop to fit in; she spends to remind everyone else where they stand. In frank terms, if you cannot afford her lifestyle, she is a shallow, arrogant, materialistic person. But to those who understand the crown—she is the blueprint.
16WERE IS THE MISS RUDY If you don't see Raghad at Bergdorf Goodman or Saks Fifth Avenue by 2 PM, she’s probably having a private viewing closed just for her at Chanel or Hermès. Known for her legendary shopping sprees, sources say she never looks at the price tag, and if a sales associate breathes too loudly, she walks out. Her latest obsession? Custom-made diamond chokers that match her cold, aristocratic gaze.Place a photo caption here. NYC SHOPPING TRIP Fifth avenue This stretch dazzles with a mix of world-famous department stores, luxury flagships, and beautiful window displays that feel worthy of their own walking tour. Stop in at Saks Fifth Avenue for high-end fashion and beauty floors that’ll make you swoon. Stroll past Tiffany & Co.—where sparkling jewelry takes center stage—or duck into Bergdorf Goodman, an NYC retail legend bursting with designer everything (check out the dreamy shoe department on the second floor). We love Fifth Avenue for its sheer scale and New York glamor—you never know when a window display will stop you in your tracks, or you’ll catch a pop-up event on the sidewalk. Even if you’re just window shopping, the people-watching is unbeatable.
