I discovered this website, www.shoplatitude.com, that offers some very unique, one-of-a-kind items from artisans located in countries all over the world. The founder created the site as a way for people to obtain unique global items without ever leaving their home country. It's expensive, but it's fun to just click around and look at some of the beautiful pieces. I enjoy exploring this site, although I think that much of the wonder in owning a piece from another country comes from physically being in that place and picking out something that catches your eye on your own time, wandering around and getting lost. Even so, take a look at what's offered on the website- their catchphrase is hilarious: Shop the World. Flaunt your Wheres. And don't forget to hashtag your buys with #globalswag!
