Read MoreThere ain't a thang much better than pulling together a crew of your best chicks for an awesome afternoon raiding a dressing up box (aka, the Nike Women's concept store on the Kings Road) to shoot some pics and cause a bit a riot.
Read MoreSurf Dome have released some awesome content around their #WorkYourBikini campaign including interviews with myself and the rest of the incredible girl-gang who make up the faces of it. I love being part of a campaign with such a positive message, especially for a younger audience. A bikini isn't just for posing in, it's for doing the stuff that gets your heart and smile goin'.

Read MoreI recently chatted to online zine of all that is action, adventure, wellness and more, MPORA.COM about wellness being the new hedonsim, and how so many of us are now swapping boozy breaks for healthy holidays. I discussed how I used to be a pretty wild party animal back in the day, partial to hedonistic festivals and boozy snowboard trips over the year. As I started connecting back with fitness and the love I used to have for sport as a teenager, the weekly hangovers began to subside as I got stoked more on breaking a sweat, surfing, and feeling fit and strong. Of course, I still love a party. I still knock back some red wine after a long day, dance until the sun comes up and go crazy for a good festival, but I just make balanced choices and have a more balanced life, with feelin' good through living healthy and doing plenty of sport taking precedence.
Read MoreA few weeks ago I hightailed it down to Devon to shoot a secret campaign which has now gone live. Retailer Surf Dome pulled together a crew of real-life surf, skate, yoga and general stoking your brains out aficionados for a campaign that really taps into that whole vibe I dig of using your body, or in this case, your bikini too, for shit other than just posing. Shredding waves. Getting sweaty in yoga. Dancing around bonfires. Riding ramps and not caring about what you look like, more about how good it makes you feel.
Read MoreThis week as many of you know is Mental Health Week, and it has been incredible to see such a huge national conversation stimulated through charities such as MIND, Heads Together, and by influential media outlets.
