Le Souk
One of my dear friends in the Netherlands authors a fabulous blog called the Style Files, and though I've talked about her and her blog a million times on this site I just realized that I've never formally announced the opening of her online shop Le Souk. You may remember Danielle, we went to Stockholm together in October. I can't believe how I let Le Souk slip from my radar, but not today!
Familjen wallpaper by Swedish designer Lisa Bengtsson.Danielle's life dream was to set up her own business so while she still has a day job, she's hoping that Le Souk and her blog will someday give her the opportunity to work from home full-time. She'd also like to widen out and work more with clients as an Interior Stylist, and I know for a fact that she'd excel at this because her taste level is so exquisite -- her rooms would be magazine worthy and gorgeous. I can't wait to see Danielle continue to march towards her dreams, it's so empowering to see women going for careers that they've often only dreamed about before. And though it's only baby steps that get us there, Danielle has made so much progress in one short year being online as a blogger and a few months as a shop owner that I know she's got a lot of great things in store!
Le Souk ships worldwide and offers a range of home accessories for modern living, most with an ethnic flavor to them, and she offers personal accessories too. Mixing traditional ethnic pieces with modern and handmade items, each Le Souk item is carefully sourced by Danielle so you can be sure everything is made well and looks wonderful. From rustic, wooden stools to authentic vintage silver tea trays from Morocco and even beautiful crocheted pets for the kids, Danielle's growing shop is a real treat. Enjoy!
