The Note #65

From Paris, Marrakech & Somerset

Over the last year, I’ve lived in three places that have greatly inspired everything in my life. Paris of course, Marrakech, but also Somerset which, even if it didn’t work for me, will always hold a place in my heart. My kitchen in Morocco will literally be inspired by my rustic kitchen on Church Hill!

So, as I’m thinking of what I want for myself, and what I want to give at the end of this year, here are a few things that are on my mind…

Lisa Yang dress, Toteme fringe coat, Prada loafers (and these Reformation loafers as an alternative), Alaïa shearing ballet flats (Toteme and Mango alternatives), heart keyring, Leatherology croc make-up case, Cos croc bag, black leather belt, Hourglass mascara, Toteme suede tote (and Mansur Gavriel and J.Crew alternatives!), Arket socks, Doré Le Set, Merit blush, and Monica Vinader heart necklace. You can shop all the links and their Black Friday sales here! P.S. Everything Doré is 30% off ;)

I don’t live Paris as sophisticatidelly (yes, I made this word up) as one would think. Most of it is working from home and easy walks and coffees in my neighborhood, peppered with a few more splashy events. I love the cosy side of Paris. I just wish I had a fireplace—many apartments here do!

Reformation pleated bag, Smythson notebook, Marrakech Flair book, Massimo Dutti trousers, La Redoute ceramic dish, Aesop Marrakech Intense perfume, Garrett Leight sunglasses, St. Agni thong sandals, Nécessaire hand cream, Jennifer Behr earrings, Jacquemus sneakers, Nanushka scarf, The Row sweater, and Toteme dress.

Morocco is a lot of mess and dust for me right now, but—for my future Moroccan self—it’s really inspiring me to find the right tone style wise, sensual yet comfortable.

[There are so many things I want to share from there right now (like I’ve found the BEST babouche store, they look like The Row, and I’ve had leather flip flops made that I’ve worn for two summers), but sourcing them to share with you is not easy. And go give an address in the Medina!!! II’ll figure it out!!!]

& Other Stories quilted jacket, Cos slippers, Salomon sneakers, Creed Aventus for Her perfume, Creed Aventus hand and body lotion, silk sleep mask, Skims sleep set, Soeur trousers, Hourglass setting powder, Monica Vinader hoop earrings, Hourglass glossy balm, Toteme beanie, SPRWMN tote, and Atelier Delphine sweater.

Forever and ever inspired by Somerset, Bath and the countryside life in the UK. What a beautiful, inspiring part of the world. And the style! And the houses!

I miss it. Well, actually, I’m headed to London tomorrow. Big kisses!!!

In my last Letter, I wrote about how I changed during the last decade of my life, and the lessons I’m taking into the next.

In my last Note, I wrote about people telling me I’m crazy, shutting out the noise and taking a leap of faith.

In our last Live, we talked sharing, storytelling, and creating content that feels authentic.

Let’s meet again on Wednesday, December 3rd, at 6pm Paris time. I can’t wait to see you!
