Resort style fashion editorial photoshoot number two - behind the scenes!
the grand hotel torquay Devon photoshoot location

After another very early morning, I was also recently involved in a shoot with an absolute dream team at The Grand Hotel in Torquay. The images are also under wraps for the time being, but you can get a behind the scenes peek below.

The Grand Hotel was stunning - the view from the pool area felt like you could have been in LA - with a slighter colder climate of course! A beautiful large Victorian hotel, it's located right on the seafront. The staff couldn't have been more hospitable - and even fed us lunch while we were working! I'm definitely returning to try their al fresco summer dining by the poolside.

Hot pink embellished hoodie by Dakota Rae Dust - currently loving!

It's no secret that I love colourful, sparkly, things, and so when I discovered Dakota Rae Dust on Instagram I was immediately smitten.

From her Bristol studio Bec creates hand embellished wearable goods using bold vinyl prints and vintage and preloved textiles - sweaters, earrings, purses, rosettes. All with a  a heavy dose of colour (I think she shares my love of PINK!) and a smattering of sparkle.

I loved the style of her hand embellished sweaters and Bec created a custom oversized hoodie for me with her fluro pink and orange design. I love it, it's perfect for days when you want to feel comfortable but still fun and colourful. I'm already eyeing up my next hoodie!

Check out Dakota Rae Dust here and Bec's Instagram here.
