News, style tips and tricks from the true connoisseurs of island living
Mustique's Ashes
Last week, in the height of Mustique’s Summer season, the island hosted it’s annual cricket match. The Ashes were in full swing, and Mustiquans didn’t want to miss out on all of the cricketing fun.
Occasionwear
With the summer party season in full swing, make sure you have one or two "statement" blouses in your occasionwear wardrobe - these Lotty B ones are just perfect...

"NICE NAPKIN"!
Today the Beach Cafe at the Cotton House opened again after the summer's break and I was very pleased to see the new napkins I designed in use. Finally they have made it to the table!
Yoga Breakfast
After a late night dancing until dawn at the Mustique summer party some members of the Mustique community decided to salute the sun in a slightly different way. Dr Michael prescribed a healthy dose of yoga and a delicious breakfast down at Lagoon beach to cure the hungover.
Mustique Summer Party
Last Saturday night was the nightlife highlight of the summer season here on Mustique. A night to rival the exceptional New Years' Eve Party...
LICHFIELD RETAKE
Patrick Lichfield took a fabulous shot of the island's children more than 20 years ago. During the 50th Anniversary celebrations we thought it would be fun to reenact this photo with the next generation.
MUSTIQUE 50th
After dinner Fireworks over Basil's Bar. Quite spectacular and just what we needed to get us up from the dinner table and back down to the bar for a rare treat indeed.
ALL GO - BIG 50
It certainly is All Go with only a couple of days before the Big 50th celebration. The tents are going up all the way along Britannia Bay, the rain keeps coming and going so the island is beautifully green and flowers abound, and luckily the sun shines in between.
SPLASH OF GOLD
Just 6 days to go until the big Mustique 50th celebration party. 'A Splash of Gold' is the dress code, and we have yet to finish making our costumes!
GALA GREENS
16 days to the 50th Celebration of Mustique and I'm 'Farm Girl Thursday' again. This means taking the early morning flight off-island to St. Vincent (6 minutes), and a ten minute drive up into the hills to 'Spring Valley Farm' - Paradise on Earth! We have important work today as we are supplying the Arugula for the Gala Dinner.
