Beloved scribe, radio presenter, and mother of three, Genevieve Carver beams as she shares the magic of holiday outdoor experiences and her most recent collaboration with renowned outdoor lifestyle brand, High Seas.

A Perfect Blend: Christmas and Outdoor Fun

Carver appears to have an enchanted approach to Christmas, merging the warmth of home activities with energizing outdoor experiences. As a mother to young children, she prioritizes daytime outdoor walks for the entire family’s wellbeing.

Whether embarking on a substantial trek or just a leisure walk, Carver relies on the little extra motivation a flask of hot chocolate can provide when spirits are low. This family bonding experience doubles as an exciting adventure, ending in cozy indoor activities like arts and crafts or watching a holiday classic film at dark’s arrival.

Stride & Serenity: Walking As A Sanctuary

For Carver, self-care isn’t always about indulgence, but more about embracing the outdoors. Walking, whether taking on far-reaching treks or repeatedly circling the same field, has been her sanctuary and mindfulness practice, long before the term became popular. With her involvement in multiple charitable hiking events each year, she has made walking a necessity.

Carver prides herself on being an early riser, setting her alarm at 6 am for a boxing session that kickstarts her day. Fostering an active lifestyle is the perfect way to create balance and ensure her wellness needs are met before the children’s day begins.

Fashion & Function: The High Seas x Genevieve Carver Collection

The High Seas and Genevieve Carver collaboration focuses on creating pieces that provide warmth to make any outdoor exploration possible, mirroring Carver’s life’s objectives. Her collection centers on functional yet fashionable clothing, like her Jovie jacket. This versatile attire won’t restrict your activities – let it be school runs, weekly groceries, or any other task needing attention.

The Essence of Good Health

For Carver, good health is a balanced coexistence of all life’s aspects. True wellness goes beyond stringent diets and exercise routines, it is being amenable and loving life. It is about self-care and realizing that there are moments where we do things that genuinely satisfy our soul. In Carver’s words, “a plate of pasta is as much for your soul as it is for your body.”

The High Seas and Genevieve Carver AW22 collection consists of eight distinct coats and jackets, all designed with practicality, water resistance, and insulation in mind. Prices start from £90, with four jackets cleverly made from recycled plastic bottles.
