Get It from Above
Is the monotony of daily life leaving your outlook a little gray? A summer getaway to somewhere far-off and fabulous might just be the ticket. It’s hard to visit another culture without bringing a piece of it home with you—and we’re not talking about souvenirs. A recent trip to Mexico City left us craving food, art, and home accents with punch. Indeed, the bold accessories, daring dinnerware, and out-there outdoor items on the following pages are anything but bland.
