Everyone’s favourite summer beer company Corona Extra are offering readers and drinkers a once-in-a-life-time trip to a literally deserted island with nine of your closest mates, the opportunity poses the age old question – just who would you take? Life Without Andy has put together our dream list of models, musicians, bloggers, surfers and designers that’d we’d gladly get stuck alongside on the remote Namotu Island, Fiji. We finish off our dream list of guests with the founder of one of our favourite menswear brands Barney Cools, Nat Taubman.

Nat Taubman is a triple threat – the now Sydney based, Gold Coast guy, is the creative director of stylish luxury label Zanerobe and brainchild behind timeless collection of clothing LAPSE and founder and director of one of our favourite menswear labels Barney Cools. Inspired by the Aussie coastal lifestyle Nat has grown into a world-wide fashion icon with his laid-back take on sun and surf wear, from perfectly tailored shorts to a floral bucket hat.

1. Obviously, no stranger to style, Nat would have us perfectly kitted out for beach wear on our own deserted island:

2. The Gold Coast raised founder is no stranger to the sea – and would make a great surfing companion:
