With working in the holiday industry for 7 years in one of the most popular coastal dreams in the country, Shaunna cant help but draw inspiration from the short getaways located by dreamy waters, room service in hotel rooms and the escapists that occupy them.

This ongoing body of work celebrates the indulgences and little joys of being away. I was inspired by the phrase “desserts first”, to stop following the rational rules of the mind, just cut the cake and take the first slice. Following my intuition, i wanted to create pieces that could whisk you away as a lady of leisure with bright blooms in your room upon arrival; the pudding trolley rolling up to your door with creamy delights; fresh summer fruits with Mojito’s in the cabana, refreshing sea swims in the the Cornish summer tidal pools.  

Part of Shaunna's latest Holiday collection, 'Blonde' is a golden delight exploring the uplifting effects of the colour yellow. Soft lemon and magenta hibiscus in the room upon arrival and honey stilettos ready to wear in the Cabana bar.
