"She's invited us inside her island escape in Harbour Island, Bahamas, and her estate in England. Now interior designer India Hicks reveals her secrets to entertaining in style in her new book..." --MODERN LUXURY
Dewey Decimal

Synopsis
Style icon India Hicks - daughter of the late David Hicks and goddaughter to Prince Charles - is known for her irreverent take on style, which is a mix of her traditional British past and relaxed island present. In her previous books for Rizzoli, she invited readers into her homes on Harbour Island and in England, sharing décor inspiration and family anecdotes. Now in her latest book, she presents her own slightly madcap spin on entertaining, sharing parties and tabletops organised around meals, beginning with "Let's Start with a Drink" to ending with "The Great British Breakfast." In between there are birthday celebrations featuring her children through the years, a White Christmas in the Bahamas, a picnic lunch on the Thames, among many others. Like India, these parties are full of personality, from the Panic Dinner (or what to do when you suddenly have a crowd descending); to The Great English Breakfast (as demonstrated by her mother, Lady Pamela Hicks) to The Naked Cake (cake decorating for the time-challenged). Each celebration includes cleverly beautiful yet easily implemented advice and inspiration for place settings, homemade flower arrangements, table design and more. Each chapter also includes two delicious recipes from India's chef, fondly known as Top Banana, from traditional English dishes such as Victoria Sponge and Chicken Pies to tropical treats such as The Marquess' Banana Daquiri., Style icon India Hicks's charming take on entertaining, featuring dreamy tablescapes, recipes, and enjoyable family anecdotes. Daughter of the late David Hicks and goddaughter to Prince Charles, India Hicks is known for her irreverent take on style. In her previous books, she invited readers into her homes on Harbour Island and in England. For her third book, India presents her own slightly madcap spin on entertaining. Organized by meal, the book begins marvelously with the most important meal of the day--cocktail hour--and ends with breakfast. In between, there are family suppers and big dinners, birthday cakes and Christmas crackers, great British breakfasts, quick teas and long lunches, mustard pots as vases, and bedcovers for tablecloths. Like India, these stories are full of personality, from the Panic Dinner (or what to do when you suddenly have a crowd descending) to the Naked Cake (cake decorating for the harried or untalented) to a White Christmas in the Bahamas. Each celebration includes clever advice and inspiration for place settings, homemade flower arrangements, table design, and more. These are parties that make use of what is on hand, whether it's beach towels thrown down a long table, children's candy piled in cups on a tray, or massing palm fronds collected from the lawn. Beautifully photographed and embellished here and there with a bit of Hicks family lore, the book is rounded out with a sprinkling of recipes from India's beloved cook, Claire Williams, fondly known as Top Banana, and other family members, from traditional English fare such as Victoria Sponge to tropical treats such as the Marquess's Banana Daiquiri., India Hicks's first book of entertaining, featuring tablescapes, anecdotes, and recipes from her Bahamian and English lives, in the informal style of her Instagram feed (204k followers).

- e***r (219)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis is my second transaction with Exia's Bargain Bin! I bought six books this time. All of the books are in excellent condition & have been well taken care of. I love that this seller combines shipping costs which definitely saved me a lot of money (that I can use to buy more books with next time!). All of them were packaged together in a sturdy box with enough packing material to keep them safe on their journey to me. I'm very happy with my purchases & will definitely buy from Exia's again! A+
