India Hicks's Island Living Tips

by Angela Elias 0

A Bahamian-dwelling and -bred design enthusiast, India Hicks shared some easy pointers for capturing island style — regardless of where you live. If you're not planning an island escape anytime soon, then embrace the aesthetic at home by following India's foolproof steps.

• Bring the scent of the islands to your home.
  The India Hicks Island Living collection at Crabtree & Evelyn includes indulgent tropical scents form the home. We're eyeing the rattan-wrapped Casuarina Scented Candle ($36) and the Casuarina Fragrance Diffuser ($70), inspired by casuarinas trees, palm leaves, orange blossoms, and sea air.
• Switch your sheets.
  India suggests choosing airy colors like whites, creams, and pale grays. We're terribly tempted to try this Washed Linen Bedding ($75-$298).
• Collect palm fronds in a huge vase.
  India loves that they last longer than flowers and are incredibly affordable.
• Embrace mosquito netting.
  India insists that mosquito netting is an easy and affordable way to dress up your bed. She relies on styles from Bed Bath & Beyond, like this Siam White Bed Canopy ($30) option.
