1. The Dress

The Frances Bandeau Dress, £275 | Arkitaip

I designed the Frances dress in collaboration with sustainable linen brand, Arkitaip. I wanted it to be a timeless classic that could be worn year after year.

2. The Necklace

The Betty Necklace, £370 | LIÉ STUDIO

I have my eye on the Betty and Dolly necklaces from LIÉ STUDIO. Either would instantly elevate an outfit. My style is quite minimal, so I like to add an interesting accessory.

3. The Clutch

Leather Clutch, £320 | Liffner

This Liffner clutch fits all the essentials and the strap can also be tucked away inside, so you can use it as a clutch. It also has silver hardware, which I’m preferring to gold at the moment.

4. The Knit

The Weekend Relaxed Jumper, £245 | Navygrey

I’m not exaggerating when I say I have Navygrey’s The Weekend Relaxed jumper on me most days. Tied around the waist or slung over the shoulders, it’s there when I need it.

5. The Set

Pomelle Silk Two Piece, £298 | Reformation

I love a silk set on holiday, especially this one, as it’s the coolest option for hot nights. Plus, I also re-wear them as separates to give me more styling options.

6. The Linen 

Olina Linen Pants, £188 | Reformation

I wear Reformation’s Olina trousers with everything! Despite being really relaxed, they still make an outfit look put together. 

7. The Jean

501® '90s Jeans, £100 | Levi's

I’m never without a pair of jeans – even on holiday. I usually wear them to travel, plus you never know when you might get a bad weather day. These 501 90s are the closest fit to my favourite vintage pairs.

8. The Shirt

Oversized Summer Shirt, £310 | TOTEME

A blue oversized shirt is one of the hardest working pieces in any summer wardrobe. I’d throw this TOTEME one on with white jeans for travel days or over a bikini as a cover-up.

9. The Skirt

Elowette Lace-Trimmed Silk Satin Slip Skirt, £380 | DÔEN

I love a midi skirt and this silk one from DÔEN can be easily dressed up or down.

10. The Swimsuit

Aquarelle Swimsuit, £350 | Eres

Black swimwear will always be my first choice. Eres and Lido are my go-to brands .

11. The Sarong

Silk Sarong, £270 | Matteau

My wardrobe is quite neutral so I like a pattern or colour in a sarong. Australian brand Matteau has some of the best.

12. The Hat

Holiday Bucket Hat, £76 | Lack Of Color

Lack of Color is hard to beat for hats. My favourite is this beige, canvas bucket hat – great for beach days.

13. The Shorts

Poplin Boxers, £60 | Tekla

Easy and relaxed, I’d pair these Tekla shorts with a white t-shirt and flip-flops for the coffee run. They also work well over a swimsuit.

14. The Basics

Jill Tank, £105 | Flore Flore

I like to invest in my basics as they’re what I wear every day. I love the quality and selection at Flore Flore – I’m especially loving the v-neck tanks at the moment.

15. The Sunglasses

3 Dots Cat-Eye Sunglasses, £340 | Celine

Cat-eye shapes suit my face best. I’ve been wearing this pair from Celine for years.

16. The Bag

Hollis Raffia Bag, £260 | Jenni Kayne

I’m rarely seen without a basket bag in the summer and this Jenni Kayne one has been my most-used this year. It’s the perfect size and the olive colour really works with the rest of my wardrobe.

17. The Ballerinas

Cendrillon Ballet Flats, £290 | Repetto Paris

Repetto is one of my favourite shoe brands and these classic Cendrillon ballerinas are my all-time favourite style. 

18. The Flip-Flop

Slim Flip Flops, £30 | Havaianas

Havaianas are the most comfortable flip-flops and black works with all my outfits. If I’m doing a lot of walking around during the day, I’ll most likely be wearing these.
