Top Drawer always signifies the start of the Autumn period - so here we are embracing the change of the seasons - but not before enjoying the last of the Summer sun over in sunny Mallorca - endless Summer xo

Amalfi to Edinburgh

We swapped the warm Italian sun for the beautiful stormy skies of Edinburgh - ate amazing food, stayed in a wonderful air bnb and had a ball - home in time for a festival wedding - flower crowns essential xo

Long Hot Summer

Yummy trips in our camper, long dinners in the garden, long weekends in the Cotswolds and then a week in Italy at The Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria - heaven xo

Sunny Harrogate

I spent a week in pretty Harrogate at Home & Gift - dreaming big and shopping small - and eating all the things! what a wonderful experience.

Birthday, Bath & Boats

With the sun in the sky and a spring in our step we headed to Bath for a wonderful weekend of being tourists, how wonderful! followed by a gorgeous Birthday celebration for moi which included a trip in our camper and lovely and yummy dinners that went on for days followed by a long weekend at Henley Regatta - messing about on the river. Just perfect.

We had THE most wonderful weekend at Hay - have you been? if not GO! it's so good for the soul - set in the most beautiful countryside in Wales - wonderful inspiration, fresh air, wonderful food and lovely wine!

Followed by business celebrations - our 12th birthday? how did that happen!

The White Isle

Oh Ibiza, you have my heart - what a wonderful holiday we have just returned from with two of our best friends - staying at the Nobu Ibiza Bay we planned an epic adventure full of food and drink adventures at the best restaurants, bars and beach clubs.

So many high lights I am thinking of writing a guide for the forty-something-design-and-fashion-focussed-traveller.

Easter Bunnies, Camping & Afternoon Tea

Easter was wonderful - we spent the weekend up in Liverpool with my boys family - the weather was kind and we ate and drank our way through the bank holidays!

Then came a lovely break - our first camping trip of the Summer - followed by afternoon teas and hysteria hysteria!

Roll on Spring!

Easter Colour Vibe

Bloom & Colour Lovers

Busy couple of weeks in the studio, deadlines, deadlines and more deadlines - mixed with some pretty including a wonderful Flower Workshop with The Blossom Tree at their gorgeous new studio to celebrate mummy's day. We've had plenty of dinners and drinks and I've been battling the most awful cold - boo to germs! bring on the Summer!

Blossom, Bibendum, Choos & Dior

Sounds like heaven right? well if it weren't for the huge deadlines that were in the middle of all this pretty I would agree! even still what a beautiful Spring.

If you can get to London - make sure you check out the Dior exhibition - it's dreamy - it's totally sold out but each day there are a few tickets released at the V&A so it's worth the chance If you're feeling lucky xo
