Life isn't fair. Really, and truly. You know how I love Lucite.

In case you haven't noticed, I've had Morocco on my mind all year long. I've never met a Moroccan-style furnishing I didn't like, and the Wrapables Morocco Throw Pillow ($39, reduced from $52) is no exception. I love its vibrant medallion-patterned embroidery, and how the bright colors contrast boldly with the cream-colored background.

Hi Casa,
I have fallen deeply in love with a beautiful Madeline Weinrib rug, The Brooke Chenille in Watermelon. The Tibetan pattern, the bright pink color . .

You know I've had Morocco on my mind lately, and that I'm always on the lookout for a good bargain. So, it's no wonder that The Company Store Casablanca Side Table ($53) jumped off the page at me. I have a sneaking suspicion that the low price of this table could be explained by MDF material (that info is conveniently left out).

Browsing through Kelly Wearstler's portfolio, I came across this image of a living room in a Santa Monica residence that she designed. While the traditional/Hollywood Regency style of the space is certainly elegant that's not the reason the photo caught my eye. The grayish-blue, lattice-patterned rug was glaring back at me; it looked oddly familiar.

I recently introduced you to one of my favorite blogs, My Marrakesh, about a family's quest to build an eco chic boutique hotel, called Peacock Pavilions, in Marrakesh. As part of this quest, Maryam, the blogging girl, wanted her hotel's tables, Saarinen tables I might add, "to be, well, pretty." Instead of purchasing traditional round tablecloths or leaving the tables undressed, she designed her own tablecloths, edged with handmade passementarie buttons, because she didn't want "to cover the graceful stems of the Saarinen tables."

Just as we're gearing up for Summer, Life & Style is packing their bags for a trip to Morocco.
I love some of their picks, especially the gorgeous silverware and colorful tea glasses. You may have noticed that I've been peddling Moroccan items for months now, but I figure I might as well chime in once again with some more Moroccan items that I'm loving these days.

I think I need to quit my job and move to Morocco, or Spain, because if the gorgeous horseshoe-shaped arches on this Rian Rae Moorish Table ($780) are any indication of the architecture there, I can guarantee I'll be happy. Until then, I'll settle for drooling over this intricately hand-chased aluminum table in the comfort of my own home. Don't blame me if I fib and tell friends I picked it up during "my travels."

My trip to Zihuatanejo was quite the experience, but I've had my sights set on Morocco for a long time now. The country has always held this mysterious appeal, as if anything associated with it is beyond interesting and cultured. And those Moroccan tiles?!

The XL Hangbol Pendant ($595) is handcrafted from aluminum with a delicate patterning. I like how it blends industrial materials with a more Morocccan sensibility. How about you?
