FF was asking what "island fancy" was.
This description isn't exactly in Emily Post and Googling yielded minimal results.
Can someone elaborate on this dressing/attire classification?

Hopefully no sequins are required!

For men, usually (at "Flavours" anyway) they wear long pants/kakhi's with a nice shirt - have seen Tommy Bahama type short sleeved silk, to long sleeved "tropical". No shorts
For ladies they tend to "dress" - I have seen sequins but not many - LBD's, to island tropical silk prints, but not evening formal (ie long ballgown prom type) but usually some type of heel - no flip flops.
But having said that, you will see everything there - don't worry 
Let me know if you need more info

Duh - am I not with it today or what (just took puppy to vet and had to leave her to be scoped 
)
I meant LBD - Little Black Dress - sorry I need to proof read (or have more wine - OK coffee as it's before noon 
)

There is an article in this week's St. John Tradewinds all about Flavors, including where the money for this year's fundraiser will go and where you can get tickets. I imagine it'll be put online at some point today,
www.stjohnnews.com.
It's a really fun event, and always for a great cause.
