My Island: Danielle Hodgson-Lindley
Raised in the north of England, Danielle is the founder and creative director of Velvet Circus, Ibiza’s most sought-after events styling and tablescaping company.
My Ibiza style signifiers are my Vans and a pair of statement sunglasses.
The last thing I bought and loved was a pair of La Double J striped leather ballet pumps.
And the thing I’m eyeing next is sunglasses - always sunglasses!
My style icon is my mother. She’s always so effortlessly chic.
My work has taught me so much about myself. From how I do business and handle pressure to what kind of parent I’ve become.
My work icons are so many! There are so many people I admire in this business, but Design Anarchy Studio stand out as a strong favourite.
The carry-on essential I’m never without is my Healy, a portable resonance device with frequency technology to support balancing and harmonizing the physical, mental and emotional body.
In Ibiza we need to be extra aware of keeping our beaches and waters clean.
My fave Ibiza beach is Cala Llenya in the early morning with my husband, James and son, Fox
My secret spot is our hidden cove near Cala Mastella
My go-to party pal is my sister, Aimee. She’s the best!
The best place to dance in Ibiza is my living room with my family!
I couldn’t live without James and Fox.
My top Ibiza souvenir comes from the farm opposite our home, where we have an unlimited supply of raw milks, cheeses and eggs. Plus the sheep and goats they bring over to our fields every day make me very happy.
I’d take a lunch date to the laidback little chiringuito at Pou des Lleo.
If I could encourage people in Ibiza to do one thing it would be
to take an early morning swim in our beautiful waters in summer and in winter! There’s no better feeling.
A recent island find is Moon Cards from Can Tieta. They’re all made on the island and are great to give as gifts.
My Ibiza life began when my husband said, ‘let’s move to Ibiza, it’s great, you’ll love it!’ I did and I do!
Something I would never part with is my Healy and my Ańalemma wand, which is a is a portable crystal tool that transforms regular drinking water into its super-charged, full-spectrum coherent state.
A great book I read recently was Water Codes: The Science of Health, Consciousness, and Enlightenment by Carly Nuday. Through new science and ancient wisdom, the book explores water, consciousness, health, DNA, energy, and enlightenment. It’s totally eye-opening and will change the way you see yourself and your world forever!
If I wasn’t the creative director of a styling company, I’d have been some sort of wardrobe or cupboard organiser. That’s what I love to do to relax.
Ibiza in three words is living my dream
