operation: parisian window boxes.

if you can't get yourself to paris, get paris to you. i couldn't be happier with my home decor addition today than if my apartment were in le marais.

from this:

et voila:

put a crown on it.

my pinterest board by this title 'put a crown on it' is my faaaaavourite to add to...i'm a goner for any sort of headgear; be it beret, turban, scarf, bowl of fruit...it doesn't matter what (except for maybe meat a la lady gaga), i love it. whenever i'm travelling, i feel more inclined to experiment with les chapeaux. i thought i would share with you a compilation of the times i wore nifty noodle toppers on my recent world trip.

i was thinking to myself the other day, how i've been to some exotic locales all over the globe and i'm still so in love with home (canada); where my family is. no matter where i am, there is a part of me that will always favour daggy little country bars (preferably with karaoke) and whose heart will skip a beat at cold, grey, bleak scenes in movies set in middle america. home really is where the heart is.

from morocco, with love.
