Hi friends! I'm spending the week on an escape/fitness retreat with Lithe Method in Harbour Island, Bahamas…enjoying amazing workouts, fresh local food, and pure relaxation. I haven't been on vacation for this long since my honeymoon 5 years ago so this is the most relaxing I've done in years! Baby Cho in my belly seems to be enjoying the R&R, too. I began to feel he/she moving around more this week with tiny flutters in my belly! I wanted share some photos from the island and the house we're staying at. Designed by India Hicks, I love the collected world traveler feel of the house mixed in with a bit of British/Southern comfort. Also, it's so fun to hang with my friend and fellow mama-in-the-making, Lauren! Stay tuned for a food post from the Bahamas later this week! — Joy

The island looks gorgeous! I always adore India Hicks design (since her crabtree evelyn collection range). Can’t wait to see photos of the house.
Looks lovely! Enjoy!
You two are adorable! Congrats!
Have a wonderful vacation. I love India Hick’s style!

I love your simple black dress! I’ve been looking for something easy that I can just thrown on for those lazy days but still look chic at the same time. Where did you get it? (I’m assuming it’s not maternity wear!)
have fun and relax
Hi Sheila,
Thank you! My husband gave me the dress as a gift. Its Alexander Wang from Barneys Co-Op. And its regular, not maternity 😉
Best!
