Morocco Mall: The New Happiest Place on Earth?
Rarely does a mall catch my attention (my youthful days as a mall rat are long over), but I just had to share this little tidbit with my Cultural Chic family.
The mall by the sea, opened in December of 2011, is located in the Casablanca Corniche, a very prestigious and prosperous area in Morocco. Over 2 million people have visited the Morocco Mall and it is listed as one of the top 5 malls in the world of it's class.
Even before entering the award winning mall itself, the grounds alone will make you gasp for air. One of the mall's major features is the Musical Fountain, billed as "one of the most impressive fountains in the world."
The website, http://www.moroccomall.net/moroccomall, is chock full of photos of beautiful people inside a huge, airy shopping plaza. Purchasing your Louie Vuitton or Prada goodies becomes more than just a shopping spree, it is a major life's event. There's clearly something for everyone; from Grandma on down to the kiddies, a visit to Morocco Mall is sure to be a memorable excursion to end all excursions. The epitome of Cultural Chic.
My wish list just got longer.

The Runway's newest darling is African born model, Ajak Deng. Hailing originally from the Sudan, Deng is an Australian transplant and is currently the favorite on the runways for the House of Lanvin and Louis Vuitton.
Rising from a traumatic childhood, Deng's mother died in a refuge camp in Kenya and she fled Sudan at the tender age of 12. The remainder of her family moved to Australia in 2005. Deng is in good company on the catwalk, her mentor is supermodel Alek Wek, whom she met when they did shows together. In an interview in Vogue Australia's March 2011 issue, Deng talks of realizing her dream when in 2010, she walked the runway for Valentino's couture show.
With her deep, chocolate skin and rocking a striking platinum blonde TWA, Ajak Deng is a unique and refreshing addition to the fashion industry and is the epitome of Cultural Chic.

Designer Showcase: The Shadowplay Jewelry Collection
Discovery, discovery, discovery! One of the things I love most about being a fashion and style blogger. You are constantly searching for other creatives to showcase and give a special shout out to. And every once in a great while, you find something that is especially unique in it's style and concept. Such is the Shadowplay Jewelry Collection.
Shadowplay is the baby of designer Heather Goldberg. Her inspiration comes from such natural entities as spiderwebs, oceanic aragonite, and those things mystical and not readily visible to the naked human eye. Delicate hand dyed yarn finely interwoven with Swarovski crystals make up the ethereal quality of Goldberg's creations.
Shadowplay is a culmination of Goldberg's "desire to create beautiful, one of a kind, hand-crafted pieces with consciousness to materials and their origin in mind." The calming beauty of crystalline waters. Hints of color from glistening stones on the ocean's floor. These are the elements that inspire the quiet elegance of Shadowplay.

P.S. Please check out Shadowplay's Lookbook which has beautifully executed illustrations of the collection.
