How would you describe New York to someone who has never been?

It’s a big city that can feel quite small. READ MORE

This is the chicest hotel I’ve ever seen. It’s in Skoura (which I’ve already told you about a million times) and we spent two nights in Dar Ahlam, The House of Dreams. This place is so marvelous I could only think of one thing: coming back. I didn’t really know what to expect. We just told our travel agent a few things (Mr & Mrs Smith, really cool)(We want to go to Morocco ! We want to drive around ! And not stay in the cities too much !) and let them take care of the rest.

Take a look at the photos. Here, you arrive into a completely renovated kasbah. You’re warmly welcomed as you enter. They guide you down a dark hallway just as it was done in yesteryear. It appears that this long entrance hall allowed the women of the house time to hide themselves from strangers.

This weekend, I was in Istanbul with Scott for the Elle Style Awards ceremony. Some day, if you play nice, I’ll tell you about the fiasco when I went to get my award for Fashion Blogger of the Year, yeah! But for the moment, I’m still recovering from the PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). In the meantime, we’ll just talk about all the great stuff that happened.

Yep, I was back in Istanbul and yep, still love it. And plus I got an award, and that’s just plain classy. After, we partied and I met tons of super cool people, and one of them was Ceylan.

I love her style. Ceylan is a fashion editor and she has a blog as well, which seems great even though I can’t understand any of it.

And Ceylan has short hair and it works diabolically well on her… Do you see where I am going with this?

PS : Look at her blog, I’m seeing that it wasn’t long ago that she had long hair. So I’m thinking that deserves a short-hair interview, just to ask her what effect it’s all had. What do you think?

I remember as a kid, I only thought about one thing: travel. As soon as I was old enough, around 14 or so, I started working summers to pay for my first trips. First with host families cause I was super young, and then quickly, all by myself.

I loved flying. I loved the mix of excitement and apprehension that came over me every time I landed in a new country.
