"Our Larissa Sandals around the house and in the garden, the Nico shirts because the colours and prints give me positive energy and our new spring/summer 20 jewellery range including the moon and fusilli hoops."

The Book You Wish Your Parents Had Read

"The Book You Wish Your Parents Had Read by Philippa Perry. I would recommend this to any new parent or parent to be, it's so insightful."

3. I'm watching...

"We just finished the latest series of Ozark, which has some fantastic female leads and a plot based around Mexican drug cartels and money laundering. It's complete escapism. I love Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, so we watched that again too."

4. I'm eating...

"My husband Jordan is a chef, and we love cooking together. As we're staying with his family in Ireland, we are trying to get the whole family involved in the meals which has been a wonderful activity for us to share together... everyone is learning new things. Recently, we made a feast for Easter Sunday as a bit of a distraction from the monotony of lockdown, including a monstrous butternut squash galette."

5. I'm listening to...

"Neil Young's Harvest Moon and New Order's Dreams Never End."

6. The new skill I've been learning...

"I have been continuing my pottery and ceramics practice when I have a spare moment. It's not a new skill as such as I began learning well over a year ago, but it requires regular practice."

7. The workout I've been doing...

"I love to practice yoga, and we have been practicing in the garden with the kids as family. My husband also has a skipping rope, which is like a much more portable treadmill!"

 "Although we're working from home, it's been very busy balancing work and family so I haven’t felt bored yet. But we have been cooking a lot and taking turns doing school work with the kids, and enjoying craft projects with them. We've also been going for daily walks to the sea and the mountains, both of which are very close to my husband's family home here in Dublin and have been hugely therapeutic."

9. The app I've used the most...

"We use a Korean app called Kakao Talk, which is similar to Whatsapp. It links up our teams in Korea and London and we use it to communicate daily. We also have daily catch-ups over Zoom for our team meetings and check-ins."

10. The self-care I've been practising...

"It is incredibly tempting to stay up late once my son is asleep, but the following day I feel like I've been hit by a bus, so going to bed early feels like the ultimate act of self-care at the moment."
