Beach House ~ Amazing Grace in Turks and Caicos
Today, I stopped over at House of Turquoise and loved Erin's post about a beautiful private, luxurious beach house located in the Turks and Caicos called, Amazing Grace. This sprawling 9000 square foot beach house sits a very short distance from powdery, white sand beaches.
Amazing Grace
Amazing Grace
Imagine... azure ocean views and tropical breezes from nearly every room. For an afternoon swim, you have a choice of the pristine Grace Bay beach only steps away or the stunning 50 foot heated pool and jacuzzi. You can also relax on the gracefully decorated terrace at the end of your day and experience the most magnificent sunsets. At night, custom-designed lighting casts a magical glow on the property's magnificent landscape - enabling you to enjoy the outdoors 24/7.

Sophisticated Coastal Chic ~ Diane Bergeron
I've been wanting to share with you a few photos of Diane Bergeron's design work. Her interiors are sophisticated and relaxed at the same time. I also admire her choice of color in the fabrics and accessories that she uses to make a room come together. Simply beautiful.

What I'm Loving Now
Happy Wednesday my dear friends! I'm excited because my dad is flying in from Africa today and is going to spend a few days with the family and I. He works in Nairobi, Kenya and has been on a few amazing safaris there with my step-mother and sister. I'll have to share some of the photos with you when he gets here. Wait until you see these amazing pictures!
In the meantime, I have put together a few things that I'm loving right now. There's always something new to love! Don't you agree? Enjoy!

My Summer Beauty Essentials {Desiree's Picks}
Here are just a few of my everyday beauty essentials. I just recently bought the new summer nail polish colors from Essie and love them! The facial scrub is something my husband picked out for my son and I actually love it and use it every morning and night. The Lancome skin care is new to me and I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of results I get. Has anyone tried the Lancome Genifique yet? And, I have to wear the Neutrogena sunblock from head to toe when I run.

A shout out to a few Chic Bloggers who are my Top Referrals! Thank you girls!
I began my journey as a blogger in October 2010. I didn't know really what to expect because I was a new blog visitor, as well. The first blog I came across was, Hooked On Houses...I'm sure you know Julia by now. She was a big time blogger then and her blog continues to grow by the day! Julia was kind enough to be one of my very first...and I mean earliest followers and I thank you Julia for that! She's such a sweetheart! Then I met a few other awesome girls! How wonderful would it be to live closer to one another! I can imagine getting together for appetizers, wine and chatting about our aspirations as bloggers. So much fun!
Some of these girls happen to be my Top Referrals in the month of April 2011. Thank you for visiting my blog and for adding me to your daily blog list! May God continue to bless you and your endeavours!

Global Chic
I hope everyone had a beautiful Mother's Day! I celebrated with my mother, mother-in-law, and my lovely sister-in-law on Saturday. My husband cooked dinner for us and for dessert we had delicious pastries from the French Bakery around the corner from my home and drank tea. I was stuffed and happy!
On Sunday, I had a day to relax......we attended Mass, made our, Sunday, after-mass pit stop at the French bakery and then went home to unwind. I read part of a book that my mother gave me, did a load of laundry, and laughed with my husband and the boys. In all, I had a wonderful weekend. What more can I ask for?
God Bless you!
I have always loved global influences when it comes to clothing. The colors, textures and handywork that goes into each piece is phenomenal and reminds me of a casual, warm summer. A suntanned glow and one of these accessories and you're set!
