About Me

London, United Kingdom
Fashion is a most definitely a passion, however I love to inspire people. I love sharing things I have discovered. From London originally but brought up in Berlin, family in Marrakech and spend most of my life living out of a suitcase. Most people would despise the continuous nomadic behaviour, however I thrive on packing for a new adventure! Stay tuned as I post about 2-3 times a week giving you a taster on my exciting finds!

When in Lotus Privilege - Something out of an old movie

Marlene Dietrich's swing pad! 

Imagine you had stepped through a time portal and on the other side awaited the exotic time of the 20s, featured in Marrakech when continents where so far apart from each other and crossing boarders was a luxury. This is what it feels like to step through the doors of the Lotus Privilege in Marrakech.

You enter through dark alley way ( something out of Indiana Jones) and through a door the size of a wooden house ( something out of Lord of the Rings) and into a world of modern comforts with oriental twist. A world of black and white and a splash of bright colour, filled with mirror mosaic and glass, wood and velvet and all you want to do is fox trot your way through the courtyard like a dance from a Fred Astaire movie.

If Marlene Dietrich had a house in Marrakech then this is what it would look like. All the masculine/feminine fashionable features you could dream of and done with such elegance and poise.

Even if you are not staying at the riad for your trip you must try their taster menu dining experience. 7 beautifully prepared dishes, all mini and bite size gourmet cuisine, yet you feel filled and complete at the end of your night and you wish only to sit but the crystal blue plunge pool and listen to the cool water wonder.

This is a must visit of must dine When in Marrakech


If you went here for a night or more 
You wouldn't be a-wanderin' from door to door 
Why don't you do right, like some other people do? 
Get out of here and try this riad too

I fell for your jivin' and I took you in 
Now all you got to offer me's a drink of gin 
Why don't you do right, and try this riad too 
Get out of here and get and try this riad too Why don't you do right, and try this riad too  
and try this riad too
