Anthropologie ( A Love Story)





Remember my last last last post about my custom made sofa.. how I chose teal, yellow and orange.. That was almost five months ago.. Then I was in LA this summer and went to Anthropologie and saw the color combinations.. How things were beautifully put together, and here you can see just the exact colors I was contemplating..
I so fell in love with the yellow bag.. I loved the soft leather, and the dazzling yellow.. but didn't know where I would use it.. until I make up the right excuse to have it I can always buy it online.. didn't buy any clothes from there, but I bought some books and stationary made by my favorite artists and bloggers.. I will post about them soon inshallah!

Looooove the top in the last picture..

Book Lust



I will order my own ideal bookshelf.. would be a perfect framed art to occupy one of the living room walls..
You can see more here..

It will be a wide bookshelf indeed..

Old Love



remember once I posted about syko"s book? still don't know why and how I did not receive
that book.. hmmm.. I still love her work.. I go east I go west, I remain a loyal admirer of her
neat cute work and imagination..

mental note: half a dozen of these houses are not enough! A dozen will be perfect..

A Better View



..now that I have moved my seating towards a new angle, am able to enjoy a glimpse of my favorite painting while sipping on my tea or enjoying my sweet coffee.. my blue quadro.. it's been abandoned all this time, but enjoyed within seconds when I pass by it dashing from one room to another..
I believe in the power of paintings, drawings and colors.. a quick journey to colorful Eden in just a split second when you lay eyes on them..
what I regret most, that I came back from the US empty handed, with no framed art to hang on my wall, that would've been a happy reminder of one beautiful journey.. I still have many white walls waiting to be filled with a window to some pretty art or a nice memory..
Luckily, I do have a beautiful piece waiting to be framed and appreciated.. it was copied by
my daughter at school.. I will make her do more of these goodies..
The last picture shows my daughter's painting.. isn't it a candy to the eye?

Ramadhan Anticipated




My friend has designed and made this dress (darra3eh) for me.. ES is her signature..
The choice of fabric looks inspired by these pretty candles I bought from Anthropologie this
summer.. oh I could write a love story about Anthropologie!
This Ramadhan dress will be completed with bling-blingy golden bangles and earings, and the
scent of holy oud and bukhoor.. See you soon Ramadhan!
