A Flippie-Chic Weekend
What to do when you receive an invite to guest with Chris Blackwell and your villa of choice is the Ian Fleming? Graciously accept, of course, and pack with flippie chic top of mind. There’s a lot going on in Blackwell’s empire, from construction of 26 haute huts with a price tag of US$9m to a weekend full of Grace. SO reckons you’ll be green with envy this week…
Thanks much, CB, Marika Kessler, Ricardo Bowleg, Nicholas Barriffe, Lennox Williams, Marlon Palmer and food goddess Talcie Neil. PS The luxurious batik bathrobes from Mary Vinson’s Royal Hut collection is my SS 2016 from-bedroom-to-anywhere dress. Priced at US$140.00 plus tax, it’s a great investment.
