Majorelle Gardens

While we were in Marrakesh we visited the Majorelle Gardens which is a moments piece inside the chaotic city! The garden was revived some years after the death of Majorelle by Yves St Laurent and the artist Pierre Bergé. The house oozes style and the garden is so unique it is a must see!



I love the cobalt blue walls with the bright yellow! The paints are made from all natural products like plants.


It was amazing to see somewhere a great designer like Yves Saint Lauran could have been inspired by!


Holiday to Marrakesh

Here are a few imaages from my holiday to Marrakesh this summer;




Mint tea...Mmmmmmmm



This was the most amazing room I’m very seen! The light was so calming and every inch was decorated with such detail and precision it’s unbelievable it was done by hand!
We went to the dying souk where they used saffron to dye the cotton and cashmere! It comes out this lovely colour!
The main square was amazing! This was my view from the restaurant where me and my mum shared a vegetable couscous and fish tagine! Yum...
