Is this the cutest car you have ever seen? It was parked in front of the Lyford Cay Club in Nassau this past weekend as a harbinger of cuteness, yes; but more accurately perhaps to signal stylishness, great design, darlin’ people, and fantastic houses. It was the club’s first design seminar weekend and a smashing success. Stay tuned… more to come.
I never thought I wanted a pink convertible with wicker seats, but I might be changing my mind about that.
It puts our mini coopers to shame. i think you should figure out a way to have them made in the US. i would gleefully be your marketing director…x
Thats fabulous! Saw something like it in Aspen a few summers ago outside the Little Nell…..some folks are so-so creative 🙂
Oh, my dear! I am smitten by this adorable little thing! I can feel the breeze on my face, now!
It’s pink cuteness personified! The only better thing would be to see fashionable you at the wheel with your hair flying in the wind, en route to your next adventure!
Cannot wait to see more photos from the event!!
Just plain adorable! Lucky you seeing this and being there this past weekend.Everything looks better at Lyford Cay!!!!!!!
The seats are what’s truly transcendent.
Oh yeah; this so trumps the Lilly Golf Cart. Counting on you to be parking that at Bee Cottage soon!
frances the car in question at Lyford is a Fiat Jolly. Made in Italy in the fifties for resorts such as Palm Beach, Lyford and Sardinia. A precursor of the Golf Cart but so much more fun. Best. Lawrie Weed (one of Tom’s Chicago friends)
Thank you Lawrie! and so nice to hear from you! Glad to know this bit of info. Warmly, Frances
I did a double take on this one. Not sure if I can link here, but I pinned a really similar beauty on my pinterest page “Unbelievably Stylish” a while back. Same wicker seat in back, but monogrammed terrycloth seat covers in front! I think it was parked somewhere in the Hamptons. I think you are onto something! And I love the images of the resort. Looks perfect.

Ellen, yes! It is the same car – so adorable. And yes that is in Bridgehampton if I’m not mistaken. Y’all take a look at Ellen’s blog while you’re at it… Frances
Oh … my … gosh, if that’s not the cutest thing! Design seminar weekend sounds lovely. More pictures, please.
I used to have an old Cinque Cento like this when I lived in Italy, however mine was a boring gray. It was the most fun I ever had driving. Your post certainly made me laugh and brought back fabulous memories.
Maureen – thank you. Nothing boring about a gray Cinque Centro. Do you have a photo?
Your very own Bahama Barbie car!! Too cute!
what a great way to enjoy the bahamas 🙂
What a cute little car. It reminds me of an MG!
