Moroccan Style

The part of the world I'm looking at today is Morocco, I've been there before but I was far too young to remember the weather let alone the fashion tastes. I've done me research and here are my fave pics:

Street Style:

Cute pic showing a range of styles including the famous Moroccan dress. I have a couple of really beautiful ones from Arabia but they're about 3 inches too short now..

These women are modeling an array of lovely colours and patterns..so I thought they'd look a little more pleased..

Not too hot on the masking tape look but apart from that I wouldn't mind a good old rummage through these off street shops:

And also this slightly more uptown fashion store:

Aww, all in pink with a matching baby lol..

These pals certainly have differing tastes, I like the one with the trousers best:


Glam Style:

Beautiful Moroccan dresses next, I love them all and really wouldn't mind owning any of them although, if I had to choose, it would be the last one because I love that cream and red:

A rather wonderful take on Moroccan fashion next, I adore those gorgeous beaded necklaces. Stunning!

A Moroccan cross between a hijabi and non-hijab gives you this cute little number..

Ah, we've seen this before:

It's interesting, really, that Miss Morocco wears hijab but Miss Saudi Arabia doesn't..but that's a different story. Moving on, Princess Lala of Morocco in a lovely traditional dress..

Well that's it, I do like the unique style of Morocco..but I still think Americas got it :( ah well, more 'country' styles coming soon!

Moroccan women dress in such beautiful sunny colours. It must be all the year round sunshine that inspires them.

Hello :)
Nice blog u have here
I came across this article and since Im moroccan I couldnt stop myself from commenting :D
just a little remark the name of the princess is Meriam ( one of the king's sisters ).lala in Moroccan is the equivalent of Mrs and miss in English or Madame in French.Its a sign of respect and not a name :.
keep up the great work :)

IM MOROCCAN wooohoo. so i had to leave a comment. You went there? where did you go? i come from the east of morocco. And i own many of those tacshita dresses in all sorts of colours.
I think moroccan hijab style is very unique compared to rest of arab countries, our dresses are more princess like and elegant and our jilabas are bright colourful and practical. :D

thanks again
