Basket Bags – The Look of Summer
Every summer it seems I succumb to the same fashion obsession. I fall in love with every straw basket or bag I set my eyes on. I buy at least one new one per year, and then use them until they inevitably fall apart. Menorca is a really fabulous place to find them, with natural, simple designs taking their place amongst the coloured straw and more elaborately embellished ones. There is a basket to suit every taste, and they really suit the boho look of maxi dresses and cheesecloth skirts, but look just as good with jeans and a cotton top, or used as a beach bag with a Talitha…

Sunglasses Review: MessyWeekend Copenhagen
At times this week it felt like Summer with lots of glorious sunshine and warm sunny days. I went for a daily walk with my boys, and grabbed my current favourite sunnies, which come from Danish brand MessyWeekend Copenhagen. MessyWeekend are a brand leader in cool handcrafted sunglasses and ski goggles, but also give something back in support of our planet, For every pair of MessyWeekends sold, they donate to clean 2 kg of plastic waste out of our oceans. I love the ethos behind the brand, and the cool, almost minimalist Scandinavian design of their sunglasses. The pair I have been wearing are the New Depp in the champagne colourway.…
