punta cana, dominican republic

this weekend our friends got married on the beautiful beaches of the dominican republic. 
ribbons of greens and blues through the Caribbean waters..


D + me stayed at The Reserve at Paradisus Real
spin class, yoga, spa treatments, comfy lounges everywhere
fresh pineapple and mango and beautiful white sand beaches


this was a very relaxing, romantic place for a wedding
the bride and groom, and guests wore their swimsuits to the rehearsal dinner and ate ceviche
the groomsmen wore khaki linen with their pants rolled up
the bride was absolutely beautiful, carried calla lilies and wore silver starfish earrings


i'm officially a beach bum. 
love the sand and sun
love the color that my hair turns
love palm trees and little island birds
love that no one cares what day it is....or time


listen to this while you clean the kitchen....you can't help but smile and dance
bob marley: is this love

{we spent hours laying in this pool under these grass huts sipping on pina coladas & miami vices}

Tuesday finds me....

Tuesday usually finds me,

drinking coffee & working in my pjs...

watering my plants, doing a load of laundry,

lunching with a friend, going for a jog or a swim.

Yesterday was my first day back at the office after a 2 week vacation.

It was so nice to be back! I've shared with many of you that this is the first time

in 10 years that I will only be working 1 job! 

I am so thankful. 

So, it was time to tidy up my office after being out for so long. 

I found this adorable FREE printable calendar to hang right next to my phone. 

I love that it has the moon phases drawn in. Each month as a hand-drawn picture of an herb. 

So lovely.

I also can't wait to for these little lovies to arrive 

just in time for D+me's beachy vacation to the Dominican Republic.

I can not wait to meet this little lady today! Happy Birthday little Baby Evans!
