The Posh Staff

If you live in the Cayman Islands or just plan to visit here, you need to have smooth, silky legs for bikinis, short-shorts and barely-there dresses. In Cayman’s sweltering climate, shaving can leave unsightly bumps and other hair removal methods are messy and uncomfortable. It’s better to leave smooth legs to the experts at Posh Spa Lounge, located on Walker’s Road right in the middle of central George Town.

Known all over the Cayman Islands for expert beauty and spa services at affordable prices, Posh Spa has an extremely loyal following of local Cayman execs and glam girls. Stop in any day or evening and you’ll find this cozy spa packed with beautiful women chatting on Blackberrys, getting gorgeous and catching up on the local scoop. Posh does a booming business with visitors as well, since the word is out that vacation pampering does not have to cost a small fortune.

Posh has lots of fun costume jewelry and a full line of skin care products, so there’s a lot to browse through while you are waiting to get even more gorgeous than you already are.

Longtime fans of Posh Spa will be thrilled to know that Miss Priya is back! Priya is the lovely lady pictured in the top left-hand side of the photograph along with Diwa and Rosie. On the bottom row are left-to-right: Nadia and Josie Ann. (Obviously the beautiful ladies who work at Posh use the Posh services: look at their glowing skin!) Clients of Priya can contact Posh to schedule spa services with her immediately.

Fun and Flirty Dresses

Here in the Caribbean, the cooler weather will soon give way to hot and sunny days and warm nights. Wardrobes need to be strappy (not skimpy) and flexible. Transitional outfits need to move from beach to beach bar to dinner to dancing-under-the-stars. What’s a girl to do? Easy! Stop in to Funky Monkey, Grand Cayman’s chicest boutique. Owner Jodi Hunter has just the thing to get you from a-z without stopping at home to change. Her sexy-funky-cool-collection of activewear, beach wear and sexy dresses are great for the Cayman casual lifestyle and more importantly, Jodi combs the world for fabrics that breathe and hold up well in hot tropical weather. The latest “must-haves collection”  from Funky Monkey is from M. Rena: a line of one-size knit wear from LA that includes dresses, tops and leggings. It wears likes cashmere and has just the right body skimming fit. Prices start at just $28 CI. It’s the perfect collection for layering throughout a Cayman “play day”. Wear the dress in the morning as a bikini cover up. For happy hour, add a chunky necklace and wedge heels. For dinner and late night dancing, add leggings, glam make up and strappy heels.

Get it all at Funky Monkey! Stop in soon. Jodi’s collections are hot-hot-hot and they often sell out quickly.
