All things India

I have to say I am captivated right now by India Hicks. She seems to be everywhere lately. For those who don't know who she is, she is the daughter of famed interior decorator David Hicks and Lady Pamela Hicks.

Born in London, England, she was named in honor of her grandfather, Lord Mountbatten of Burma the last Viceroy to India. She was also a bridesmaid at her godfather's wedding which would not be a big deal unless your godfather was Prince Charles. Yes, she was a 13 year old bridesmaid at the wedding of the century!
Recently, India Hicks became a creative partner at Crabtree and Evelyn. She has launched what I think is a beautiful home fragrance collection called Island Living (inspired by her island life in the Bahamas). She also published a book called "Island Life" which is a collection of beautiful interiors that will make you crave the sun and simpler life of the Caribbean.

India was also featured in Domino magazine. In the article she shares stories about growing up with her dad and experiences with her own family. The magazine did a great job photographing her own home in the Bahamas and from these pictures I am sure you will agree like her father, India also has an eye for interior decorating.

I am eagerly awaiting her next collection at Crabtree and Evelyn; I will let you know as soon as it's available!
