Wonderland in Marrakech, Adventures in Morocco

On our last night in Morocco, we both looked at each other and said, we should have stayed longer.

We did 3 nights in Marrakech, 2 nights in Oualidia (about 3 hours from Marrakech), and 1 night in the desert (about 1 hour from Marrakech).  And it wasn’t enough.  I think we could have stayed 1 or 2 more nights in Marrakech.  Also, I usually don’t buy souvenirs when we travel and Marrakech was the only place I regret not packing a bigger luggage.  After we left, I wish we spent more time admiring and looking at more rugs, tea sets, kaftans, ceramics, and silk scarves.  I also wish we visited Fes and Casablanca.  Next time, Morocco.  We hope to see you again soon!

We spent one night in the desert.  It was more glamping than camping =)  Honestly, it was the most beautiful sunrise and sunset we’ve ever seen.  And it was so quiet.  Which was a welcomed change from the busy city streets of Marrakech.

There were so many delightful pockets and corners in Marrakech!  Everywhere we went, it felt like a perfect movie set.  In the middle of a beautiful garden, there were rooms tucked away for moments of calmness.  An architectural delight coupled up with a charming library and reading area.

The sounds, the colors, the scents… A sensory overload, the souks in Marrakech is a place like no other.  From metal lanterns to ceramics to rugs, I wish we had more time.  Coming into it next time, I think we need 1. a bigger luggage, 2. a workable color palette (like dishes in rose or blue colors only or rugs in black, white, and a red accent color) so that we don’t get overwhelmed or lost, and 3. more time to see more shops and come back to favorite ones.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
