Vogue Italia - May 2009 - Moroccan Holiday











“… I wish I could tell you the wonder of the souks and marketplaces; the brilliant overflowing of spices, olives, fabrics; the witchcraft stalls; the fishmongers; the piles of mint and thyme scenting the air . . . and even more than this is the wonder of its becoming familiar, the sufficiency and contentment in knowing the names of things, the words to tell the taxi drivers, the sense and reason behind the lives of Moroccans"

I loooove this editorial in May's Italian Vogue.

The only thing I wish is that it could have somehow captured the sizzle and balminess of the Moroccan heat. Something about it is almost to clean, but that could just be me projecting my desperation for the kiss of sun.

I loves it nonetheless. I feel inspired.

Burn my Blog




"Ok officially, your blog makes me want to burn my blog…but then that would involve burning my laptop which is never a good idea"

I made this comment on New Favourite Thing's blog the other day, which got me to thinking 'by golly that’s a post right thuur!'. Blogs that make you want to pack your blog up and float it down a river.

Never one to let a good idea go to waste (that's not a exactly true, I have plenty posts in draft form languishing in my dashboard) I dediced to turn my inferiority complex into a winning post! So instead of packing it all up as I considered, I intend to look on the inside, clear my diary, find the inner creativity and give my blog due care and attention!

This is a resolution!

(Lets just hope it doesn’t go the way of most resolutions - into the air and then *poof* nothing)


In no particular order, here’s some blogs that make me want to burn my blog.

Retrospective: New Fav Thing - better late than never, right!?

My new fav thing: Never a big fan of DM's on myself (I love them on others) I was surprised by my instant and compelling attraction to these heeled knock offs. I was in and out of Office before you could say 'charge that please' but then at a mere £25 squid it would have been rude not to.

Boooutiful!


My love for Polaroid’s can only be matched by my love for highly camp musicals, Pharrell (yum, I had a dream about him the other day) and Dolly Parton.









These poetic images produced by fashion designer Rita are totally fanning my newly lit flame for girlie lingerie - lace is more, no?




So poetic, so boooutiful!
