She was in the United Arab Emirates last week to promote her new fragrance Fleur Fatale.

And Kim Kardashian managed to maintain her signature glamorous look against all odds.

The 34-year-old was seen traipsing through the desert with her beauty team in Dubai, achieving the seemingly impossible task of walking along the sand in sky-high heels.

The reality star and her posse made a dramatic sight as they strolled among the dunes, dressed in flowing white attire.

Kim wore a figure-hugging long dress that featured a halter turtleneck top.

The mother-of-one wore grey strappy high heels, and styled her hair loose and straight. 

She was accompanied by her assistant Stephanie Sheppard, friend Carla DiBello and her hair and makeup team Joyce Bonelli and Scott Barnes.

The group posed for numerous pictures against the desert backdrop, during what appeared to be sunset.

At one point they sprung in the air for a photo, their arms in the air and clothing blowing in the breeze.

After their dune antics, the friends were seen making their way back to their car, with Kim on her cellphone, perhaps taking one of her famous selfies.

They then visited a camel racing farm, where Kim posed with the animals near their trough.

The star was also seen standing next to a helicopter, no doubt ready to jet off to another exotic locale.

Kim was also pictured touring the USS San Diego stationed in Abu Dhabi in November 24 to raise morale among the armed forces this Thanksgiving. 

She is the latest star to carry out the tradition of a celebrity visit to stationed troops and follows in a prestigious line of well-wishers from Marilyn Monroe to Elizabeth Taylor and the unrivaled Bob Hope.

Kim posed for photos alongside delighted servicemen wearing a tailored pair of nude trousers topped with a khaki cropped shirt and a slick of shocking red lipstick.

But she jetted home to be with her daughter North for Thanksgiving, which they spent with her large family at sister Khloe's home.

Husband Kanye West was equally busy, with his work commitments meaning he missed the family get together.

The musician, 38, tweeted from a Parisian restaurant as his wife and child celebrated without him.
