Folio.YVR Issue #6: The Divine Diner en Blanc Captivates

For many in Vancouver, the day that July turns into August signals a pursuit for the perfect all-white outfit. Even if it is only worn once in the year, it is well worth the effort for The Social Concierge’s Dîner en Blanc celebration. The 2019 edition was held in the gorgeous sun on the 8th...

Folio.YVR Issue #6: Concours D’Elegance Creates a New Tradition

The inaugural Vancouver Island Concours d’Elegance by the GAIN Group was held on a splendidly sunny day at the Shawnigan Lake School. 250 vehicles, many of them rare, antique, and in mint condition, were on display on two playing fields at the School.

Folio.YVR Issue #6: 13C Keeps Your Vintages Safe & Secure

The heavy entry door is surrounded by a smooth grey stone facade, bare except for the unit number, an intercom box, and an intimidating fingerprint scanner. Welcome to 13C, an exclusive, state-of-the-art wine storage facility. The unmarked location is a stone’s throw from Vancouver’s busy Main Street, but once you step inside, the noises, smells,...

Folio.YVR Issue #6: New Twist on Toasting: Cocktails at Villa Eyrie Resort

There is a societal movement afoot which has cocktail lovers leaning away from their usual thirst-quenching favourites and towards a kinder, gentler approach to imbibing. As odd as it sounds, they are drinking without ‘drinking.’ As the resort prepares to launch the Senna Lounge, Villa Eyrie Resort has already factored in this shift. General Manager...

Folio.YVR Issue #6: Villa Eyrie Resort is 5☆ Rest & Relaxation

When your true home is in the sky, it is difficult to imagine life without the vast horizon as your backdrop. With a steaming Nespresso in hand, I lean back on the deck of the Tuscan-inspired villa, my experience heightened by a pair of swallows swooping against a cloudless sky. This weekend is defined by...

Folio.YVR Issue #6: Judith & Charles Fund Charlie’s Foundation in the DR

The Dominican Republic makes up half of the island of Hispaniola in the Caribbean. It is a vibrant and diverse country; the second largest in the region (after Cuba), and it is a place that a young woman named Ali Le Pierrès fell in love with during the summer of 2008. Volunteering for the DREAM...
