Got my first Russian manicure this week at .nails and I’m obsessed😍 Not only do they put soooo much time and care into your nail prep and cuticles, the gel seamlessly meets my cuticle line😮

They offer both Russian manicures and pedicures and can also do fun designs!💕 For a limited time, use code “REDAKCIA10” for 10% off your appointment!💅

It wouldn’t be May without you Adelman Peony Gardens 🌺🥰🌸

➡️ swipe to see my photos at the Adelman Peony Gardens over the years (also count this as proof I’ve always been a flower field lover😂)

[2026 ➡️ 2018]

I think we can also agree that the photos always turned out better when I went on blue sky days🩵

Maybe you’ve been in a sauna before, and you’ve brought been on a boat, BUT have you ever been on a sauna boat??😲🧖🏻‍♀️

I finally tried Seattle’s sauna boat this weekend for my friend’s birthday and it was such a fun and unique experience!⛴️☀️ The boat has a sauna, warming room and lower and upper deck! They provide essential oils, robes, drinks, towels are more and you can book with a group of strangers or do a 6 person private session☺️

Street parking was a bit rough so I recommend getting there early so you can find a spot and walk over!
