Orla Kiely Resort 2014

For uber-girly style - polka-dots, little white collars and colourful dresses - my first port of call is always Orla Kiely. She of the beautiful ad campaigns (Lina Scheynius and Venetia Scott masterpieces), whom is adored by the likes of Alexa Chung.

The Resort 2014 collection features a saccharine ice-cream colour palette (strawberry, pistachio and bubblegum - oh my!) alongside all the elements that make Orla Kiely pieces instantly recognisable. For the ultimate in geek chic, pair your pretty printed dress (with collars, natch) with black ankle socks and heeled loafers.

Ren Rox

There's something for everyone in Ren Rox's photography - black & white, double exposures, selfies, vivid florals. Her website is a visual smorgasbord of breath-taking images. Published everywhere from Lula to Dazed to Oyster, this girl is Big News.

Dream House

Kimberley Gordon's Silver Lake pad takes the words 'Dream House' to a whole new level.

The interior reflects the Wildfox lovely's personality - full of pastel hues and ethereal details.

Get the look of Kim's LA abode with white walls, dark wooden floor-boards, colourful glass bottles, pastel sheets, pink tiles and heaps of flowers.

Green with Envy

Green: my favourite colour. 

I love this time of year, everything seems vivid green, especially after a rain shower.

Dinotopia

Yes, I'm still trawling through my seemingly never-ended holiday photographs!

Day 8 of the trip involved steering around in circles on a pedalo and visiting a park populated by very un-convincing dinosaurs.

Photos - me and Dave.

Brittany

I've been back at work for a week and am finding myself really missing the freedom and everyday exploration of our French road trip.

These photographs are all from day 6 and day 7 of the holiday, in and around the pretty villages of Carnac, Port Louis, Auray and Rochefort-en-Terre.
