First of all, who is Paul Bramley?
What is a day in your life like?
It may be a cliché but I have no typical
day. I launched Lush Blush Rose, the
blush the World has been waiting for,
a few years ago and the reaction has
been phenomenal. I might be meeting
with designers about a new image, or
arranging a trip to one of Europe’s most
luxurious resorts or restaurants that
want to serve Lush Blush.
I also own a bespoke luxury property
and development company that designs,
builds and sells multi million euro villas
in some of Marbella’s most exclusive
areas, including La Zagaletta. I am
very “hands on”, so I like to be on site
whenever I can, and then there are the
meetings with architects, constructors
and potential purchasers.
The latest venture, with my wife Sandra,
is Blue Stripe Storage – offering a new
concept in storage and serviced offices
to businesses and individuals on the
Coast. We only launched a few months
ago and we have made sure that we
bring the same attention to detail and
service to the new business as we do to
everything else!

love. I know a lot about food, I can cook
at a seriously high level.
The fact that it has improved so much
is largely down to Daniel Shamoon – his
team at the Puente Romano really has
raised the bar. The food that is coming
out of the restaurants and the service are
all unbelievable. People are beginning to
enjoy themselves a lot more!
There was a time that you didn’t go out
for a meal in Marbella thinking how good
it was going to be, you worried about
how bad it might be! Marbella now is like
a small San Sebastian.
I am already working with the best
person I could want. My wife, Sandra!
