Oscar's Island Oasis Part Deux

I figured why not continue on with warm weather and turquoise blue water.  It's the only thing getting me through these cold and snowy days.  I posted photos of Oscar de la Renta's Punta Cana home in the Dominican Republic over a year ago here.  Since then, he's done a little redecorating and I've found some new images.  I'm going to close my eyes and pretend I'm sitting on that porch sipping an iced Presidente beer.  Sigh.

La Bastide de Marie

Remember that fabulous Provence farmhouse where Marion Cotillard was languishing in the July 2010 issue of Vogue magazine?  Well, turns out that it's really a hotel called La Bastide de Marie.  Not only can you languish there but you can also relax at the spa, walk the gardens and enjoy the haute cuisine.  We not be able to look like a French movie star but it's nice to know we can at least feel like one!
