Destination Favorites

Today my inner child was poised and ready to take flight due to inclement weather. I timed my escape from work to stay home in order to draft a few post. Photographers from Stylish Heath have been sending images of their destinations, and I have not had a moment to cipher through the media. So, this morning I settled in with a pot of coffee, a small basket of scones and a bit of time on my side to create a few posts.{Check out this stylish sunset taken by Terlene at Ala Moana Park in Oahu, Hawaii with cloud formations in the sky.

{The stylish Napoleonic rooms photographed by Tony at the Chateau Fontainebleau are absolutely indulgent…. I mean who would like to come home each night to relax in these over decorated rooms or spend the evening on the Roue de Paris, the ferris wheel that has been installed on the Place de la Concorde in Paris}

 

It has been a while since having the opportunity to read text and view photographs from everyone’s journeys and these are pictures that truly stand out…so enjoy!

Jardins Majorelle

Several of our reporters are in Marrakech to experience the atmosphere and history of this former imperial city in western Morocco. This is truly an exotic place to visit if you are seeking an indulgent time. Crafts from the souks with narrow winding streets contain a massive range of items; pottery, leather goods to open-air butchers and specialized traders. The Majorelle Jardin is a two and half-acre botanical garden created by French artist, Jacques Majorelle. The property features a Cubist villa designed by French architect, Paul Sinoir in the 1930’s, and in the 1980’s fashion designers, Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Berge, purchased the estate.

Surrounded by vast palm groves the medina {a non-European quarter of a North African town} in Marrakech is called the “red city” because of the beaten clay used in buildings and ramparts. And, camels  are an important part of tourism, as their allure conjures images of those who trekked across the desert, traversing the sands of time.

Travel stylishly,
