Ibiza with Laura James
Two weeks ago, I was invited on a very special (AD) PR trip to Ibiza with Laura James to preview their upcoming Spring Summer 2026 collection. It was such an inspiring experience, filled with sunshine, design inspiration and gorgeous company.
The Journey
I flew from Gatwick to Ibiza on Sunday night, ready to soak up a couple of days of Mediterranean sunshine and see what the Laura James Home SS26 Collection had to offer. I used my Avios points to upgrade my flight and absolutely loved travelling business class for the first time (although now I’ve been spoilt and never want to fly economy again, which is a shame as I’m completely out of points, ha!).
I was glad to arrive without incident as some of the other girls on the trip who flew out early had awful trouble the day before due to the serious storm that wreaked havoc on the island, closing the airport and meaning their flight had to turn around and go back!
The hotel
We stayed at the Amaro Beach Hotel, a stylish and relaxed base that perfectly suited the calm feel of the brand’s new season collection. The hotel had the most gorgeous vibe from the second you stepped into the reception and I’d highly recommend visiting.
The Ibiza Interiors Event
On Monday afternoon, we were taken by minibus into the Ibizan hills to the most stunning luxury villa. Surrounded by greenery and multiple swimming pools, it was the perfect setting to showcase the upcoming collection.
We were greeted with refreshing Paloma cocktails and treated to an incredible spread of food and drinks while we mingled with a group of talented creators and influencers from across the interiors world. The atmosphere was relaxed and full of excitement as we explored the space and got our first glimpse of the new pieces.
Previewing the Laura James Home SS26 Collection
The Spring Summer 2026 homeware collection is full of fresh ideas, natural textures and soft, sun-washed tones that perfectly capture the relaxed feel of summer living. I loved seeing how the brand continues to combine stylish design with practical, affordable pieces that feel timeless and versatile.
I’ll be sharing more details soon, but I wanted to share a peek behind the scenes from the day.
After an inspiring afternoon, we headed back to the Amaro Beach Hotel around 8pm for a relaxed evening. The following evening, I flew back to Gatwick feeling excited to start planning some new home styling ideas inspired by the trip.
A huge thank you to Laura James Home for such a memorable experience and for giving us the chance to preview the beautiful SS26 collection in the most magical setting. Ibiza was the perfect backdrop for a brand that continues to bring stylish, accessible design into our homes.
