What do I love from the Resort collections so far?

Vivid rustic hues, sculptural silhouettes and stand-out prints at Carven.

Statement geometrics prints, African influences and bright flashes of colour at Clover Canyon.

Subtle citrus shades, relaxed tailoring and nonchalant styling at Stella McCartney.

The Megalithes

One of my favourite parts of the trip was discovering the megalithes outside Carnac in Brittany. 

The collection of over 3000 standing stones is the largest in the world and predates to 4500 BC. It's pretty awe-inspiring to be stood amongst them. The majority of the stones are fenced off and monetised but the collection pictured here are free to be clambered all over and posed beside.

Living in a Dream-World

Can I just take a break from sharing my travel photographs to post a collection of truly awesome pictures?

Check out Tim Barber's work if you have a spare hour or two to stare at beautiful images.

Normandy Tales

After we left Etretat, we spent a day exploring the pretty sea-side towns of Honfleur and Saint Malo. Honfleur's harbour is as pretty as a picture - and there were indeed plenty of artists painting the sunny scene! We strolled around the ramparts of Saint Malo's walled city before stopping for more moules and popping into a wonderful bar. There was so much to look at! Traditional French dolls covered every surface, a plethora of interesting signage and the best part - instead of bar stools we sat on swings!

Etretat

The first place in France that I fell in love with this trip was Etretat, on the normandy coast. Breath-taking cliffs either side of the beach boast memorable arches plunging into the sea. I also tried moules et frites for the first time here!
