I have never been anywhere as mysterious and exotic as Marrakesh. I had a vague idea of what to expect but I didn’t know it would be a million times overwhelming (in a good way!!!) in real life. Once you’ve seen the photos I’ve taken, you’d also be at a loss of words on how to describe what I saw. It’s like going through a time warp to be transported back to old times, except there are satellite dishes on top of every concrete structure everywhere. Talk about experiencing REAL “culture shock” for the first time. The city was a feast for the senses — marvelous colours, textures, scents… There’s always something to discover everywhere.

After being separated with my man for almost two months, it’s nice to be back in his arms once again. Luggage in tow, I went straight to the Japanese restaurant near his workplace. I thought it would be nice to see him during his lunch break. There he was in his brown jacket, classic aviators, white tee and his so-called (this came from him not me) “fat jeans”. Reunited at last! I’ve been to many places, have met so many people but nothing beats the feeling of getting a big, bear hug from the one that loves you the most — and of course, the one that you love.

Speaking of love, look at my little homecoming present. It’s the Hermès Kelly Double Tour bracelet. I’ve been lusting over it for months, especially the green one that I saw in Paris during fashion week.

I bought this red lego heart brooch from a store in Haji Lane, Singapore a few days ago. I wanted to give one to the BF the next time I see him but then again, it’s probably a bit too outré for his taste. I asked him on Skype if he would wear such thing. Our conversation went like this:

Him: Where do you want me to wear it?
Me: On your coat?
Him: It’s summer soon…
Me: On your jacket?
Him: I only wear jackets if I go to formal events and the brooch is hardly formal.
Me: Ok I’ll give it to friends then.
Him: I can wear it on my t-shirt.
Me: Oh yeah.

The kind folks at Gucci recently sent me a monogram silk scarf.

Gucci, established in 1921, celebrates 90 years old this year.

I recently got an iPhone but I currently do not have international roaming on it so I’ve been using it as a glorified iPod Touch. The BF told me he saw some cool silicone cassette iphone cases that are being sold for about US$30 each in Sweden. I thought they were expensive so when I found them in Singapore for about US$12 each, I bought two.

One quick search on eBay and guess what, you can even buy them in different colours for as low as US$1.99 each. Click HERE to check it out. Ridiculous!

Look at what I found while shopping earlier at Haji Lane here in Singapore.

Wear one on each finger and voila, it’s all about cool, sexy badass bitches in love.

Although I personally favour gargantuan boxy sunglasses, I sometimes dabble with curves.

Prada spring/summer 2011 curlicue baroque sunglasses, H&M tomato sunglasses, the remaining four sunglasses all by Karen Walker.

Remember Lisa Kudrow’s closing line in the movie (which, btw, is my favourite film of ALL time) Romy & Michelle’s High School Reunion? Let’s fold scarves! This amazing, treasure of a place called ‘Herr Judit‘ in Stockholm has a major scarf situation. They have a box inside the store with hundreds of scarves in every imaginable colour and pattern possible. Pick any three for 200 Swedish Kronor – roughly about US$35.
