Eco-Luxury Minimalism in Ubud
Mixing business with pleasure is a favorite past time in Bali and no one does it better than uber eco-preneurs, John and Cynthia Hardy.
This summer the couple is hosting a series of speakers at Bambu Indah, their eco-resort located right below the Amandari in Ubud.
Meandering through the resort grounds with a glass of fresh arak madu before the presentation, I thought to myself that I have never seen so much reclaimed wood in my entire life.
The entire property - from the traditional Javanese houses that make up the resort's rooms to the decorative, yet working agricultural plots that grow in between them - sets a new standard for what John refers to as 'primitive minimalism' albeit with a luxury twist.
Fantastic Balinese food, an eclectic and friendly audience along with a humorous presentation by 'shopping anthropologist' Paco Underhill, set the stage for a perfect night with all proceeds benefiting the Balinese scholarship at Green School, allowing more local children to enjoy a global and sustainable education.
On a road to somewhere yummy…
Get your rice paddy fix as well as a good meal in a very eclectic setting on the road to Sari Organik restaurant in Ubud.
Located almost directly across the street from Jalan Bisma, this delightfully well maintained path leads you along a Disneyland-esque stroll through rice paddies and coconut tree groves, working farmers and playful ducks doing their thing walking in a row or splashing in the mud.
Originally developed as a community project to help Balinese farmers learn about non-chemical farming, the trail provides little recycling bins, a small compost area and rubbish bins made from reclaimed basketball hoops.
Art & Fashion Rock Fundraising
The Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis knows how to throw a party and raise money doing it.
When writer and St. Louis native, Tania Beasley-Jolly, asked if I’d consider donating a few frocks to the event, I jumped at the chance. We are always looking for ways to give back to communities whether they’re located in Hawaii, Bali or well, St. Louis!
Our hot off the press, Melati dress, which is not currently available in stores or online, will be auctioned off as part of the “Oscar Worthy Los Angeles Art and Style Experience.”
Among a million other items, the experience includes a two-night stay at the Avalon Hotel Beverly Hills and a private shopping experience with vintage couture guru, Cameron Silver, who owns the illustrious Decades Inc. on Melrose Avenue.
The gala’s Honorary Chair “Dream Team” includes fashion insiders Chloe Sevigny, writer Derek Blasberg and Vogue supermodel Karlie Kloss who currently calls St. Louis home.
All proceeds from the event help expand the museum’s educational and outreach programs.
