Whilst leading a fairly full life of globetrotting adventure, not always taking the path most trodden, I could very much relate to the spirit of Hester Bly, and share a fascination for trailblazing women throughout history, who embody a unique style and a strong spirit. I spend my time guiding the creation of beautiful timeless heritage pieces for this British luxury resort-wear brand and am happy to say this collaboration has grown organically from exclusive island stockist to creative partnership.

Having, penned, photographed and published a book on entertaining it felt like a perfect move to partner with Pomegranate on some delicious napkins, tablecloths, runners, placemats and the occasional glass and plate. An island friendship with the owner and founder led to several limited editions incorporating the brand's history in hand-block printing and Indian artisans. Both Angela and I believe what makes a home are the memories, objects and above all family, but a decent prettily designed tablecloth or two certainly helps.

Hand-made in the Tusting workshop in the English countryside, our bags, from mini to seriously large, combine sustainably produced leathers, no brash branding but a lot of British heritage. I bring my own story and combine it with five generations of Tusting knowledge and experience which goes into every exclusive piece.

A collection for Penelope Chilvers, carefully crafted in Spain, influenced by cowgirls, tomboys and adventurers. Whilst I believe that the essence of style is confidence, Penny maintains the mantra of “Go Anywhere, Do Anything” throughout her designs. Enduring boots and ballet flats, made to be passed down as heirlooms to my daughter Domino who will walk through the chapters of her own life in them.
