In case you've been wondering where I've been, I took a weeklong trip to Morocco, with a few days in Paris and London on each end, respectively. I'd been wanting to go to Morocco for ages, so to celebrate our tenth(!!!) anniversary, Sean and I finally decided to make the journey. Packing for it presented somewhat of a challenge, especially with the stopovers in Europe; like many parts of the world, Morocco's weather can also fluctuate quite a bit in springtime, and this year has been especially cool and rainy. But when in doubt, layer up! I was a little bummed that I didn't get to wear the fabulous Alemais dress I bought specifically for this trip (that is, until our very last night in London), but I did manage to put together a few looks that I really loved. Here's what I wore in Morocco.
Day 1: Marrakech
It was raining when we arrived, but by the next morning, things were starting to clear. We booked a tuktuk tour to give us the lay of the land, and one of our favorite stops of the trip was the Bahia Palace. I started the day with lots of layers—I'm wearing a blouse, a blazer, a scarf, and a trench coat—but I was able to ditch the heavier ones by lunchtime.
OUTFIT DETAILS: old Nili Lotan for Target trench | A.P.C blazer | old Zadig & Voltaire scarf (similar here) | Nili Lotan Shon pants | Carro Positano bag | Birkenstock EVA Arizona sandals
Day 2: Marrakech
One of the many reasons I wanted to visit Marrakech is that it was where Yves Saint Laurent spent a lot of time; a highlight of the trip turned out to be our visit to Jardins Majorelle, which Saint Laurent and his partner Pierre Bergé bought and restored in the 1980s. We had some of the best weather of the trip on this day, although I did swap out my T-shirt for a cashmere sweater when we went out for dinner later.
OUTFIT DETAILS: A.P.C blazer | Old Navy tee | Naked Cashmere polo sweater (in 2nd photo) | Banana Republic slip skirt (sold out, unfortunately!) | Carro Positano bag | J.W. Anderson sandals
Day 3: Essaouira
After Marrakech, we hired a driver to take us to the town of Essaouira, on the west coast of Morocco. After the chaotic energy of Marrakech, Essaouira felt like a breath of fresh sea air. It can be incredibly windy here (kite surfing is incredibly popular), but in a way, it kind of reminded me of home, minus the fog!
Day 4: Essaouira
One of Essaouira's claims to fame, other than being a UNESCO world heritage site, is that parts of Game of Thrones were filmed there—you may recognize this setting as Astrapor, where Khaleesi purchased the Unsullied army. The ramparts offer a lovely view of the sea and make for a great photo op too.
Day 5: Agafay Desert
I mean, did you even go to Morocco if you didn't ride a camel? It's kind of a must, although I should warn you that camels are incredibly flatulent, which I was not expecting. Still, they're pretty cute! I recommend wearing jeans and long sleeves when you ride them, even in the desert (which, yes, looks green here because it's been raining so much). Totally worth it!

That sounds like such an incredible trip Morocco has been on my list for ages too, and your layering strategy honestly feels like the real MVP here. I love how you balanced style with practicality, especially with the weather being so unpredictable. Essaouira looks like a dream, and that desert experience (camels included 😂) must have been unforgettable.
I’ve been spending more time lately exploring storytelling in a totally different way—through interactive narratives and character-driven experiences—and your travel diary actually reminded me of how immersive those can feel when done right. It’s interesting how both travel and story-based games tap into that same sense of exploration and discovery.
If you’re ever curious about that kind of experience, I recently came across something similar in vibe (in terms of storytelling and character depth) over at https://summertimesagas.com/ definitely a different setting, but surprisingly engaging in its own way.
Anyway, thanks for sharing this it genuinely felt like a mini escape reading through it!
Such a beautiful and inspiring travel post—Morocco sounds like an incredible place to explore, especially for a special anniversary trip.
