pouf envy


zid zid house tour/ cookie magazine

Sometimes I really want things. Other times I want to get rid of everything. Ever since returning from Morocco pouf-less last year, things have been weird. Poufs are everywhere. They cost hundreds of dollars. In Marrakech they cost thirty dollars. Thirty-five at the airport and believe me I thought about it. Jim kept saying just get one. I kept saying no, this way we can come back.

I want to sit around on them. I want to put my feet up. I want these poufs from Zid Zid. I want to go back to Morocco.

i remember that photo shoot in Cookie! that's when i started wanting a poof, too. west elm had some in silver & gold a few years ago, but they were pretty expensive, too.
35 DOLLARS?!?! are you mad, woman???? :D next time, i'll give you some cash & you can bring me back one, or vice versa. okay?

Ugh. To be poofless. I know the feeling.

If I had a thousand dollars sitting around just waiting to be spent on poufs, I'd opt for this SHAG TUFFET:
