Bringing it All Back Home

My darling friend Louise just returned from a journey to Morocco, home to infinite shopping possibilities, one of the best Absolutely Fabulous episodes + my fantasy destination wedding.

With her she took an epic list of items that I would like her to bring back for me.
(As I told her, sans sherpa this may be impossible, but fingers crossed there was room in the suitcase for at least a few of these north african dreams...)

Here it is:

One of my top picks right now is a moroccan wedding blanket.
Said bed cover is often be-sequined + festooned with dense fringe + would look divine on a number of surfaces in my home.






It would also be an apropos gift for someone (hooray! this means you!) to give to me before my nuptials.



Other requests I've sent with Ms. Sturges?
Textiles, pillows, rugs, pompoms...







Jewels, too of course.
In particular I'm longing for a breastplate/necklace in silver and rough cut stones. Otherwise some jangly coin business will do the trick.


this bitch is crazy! and strong in the neck area.

These Bedouin slippers are known as Babouches, which is just so fun to say.
+ I particularly dig these quilted mustardy numbers.





And lastly, I cannot go on living without this tent in my life.
So I do hope Lou was able to get it through customs.



Souvenirs are just tops!

We recently came into possession of an fantastic pair of Bedouin slippers with an embroidered Chanel logo... they are kind of perfect. Perhaps they shall be yours...
