An eco printed dress fit for an elven queen

There are a few garments in my wardrobe that I’d classify as wearable art, and this dress is one of them. Despite being a huge Tolkien nerd for more than 2 decades now, I’ve never felt particularly inclined to dress up as a hobbit or elf…until I put on this dress and was enveloped in it’s ethereal beauty.

The perfect summer holiday dress

My entire outfit is from Very.co.uk – Very has so many delightful sundresses that are just perfect for summer holidays or a daytrip to a picturesque market town like this. It was hard to pick just one but in the end, this darling retro print dress had my heart.



3 Things You Should Never Do In Bluebell Woods

If your social media feeds are heavy on the cottagecore aesthetic, you won’t get through the month of May without seeing at least a dozen photos and videos featuring these otherwordly patches of blue scattered across the forest floor.

The perfect plus size cottagecore dress

I consider a puff sleeved white cotton dress to be a staple of a cottagecore wardrobe, and the frequency with which I wear this dress is proof enough!

The last of the bluebells

It was the close of a perfect summer’s day out in the countryside. I wore my new Benji jumpsuit that had been gifted to me by Ace & Jig and I was worried that the fabric might be a bit too thick for the sun.

Flower season in the Teasdale dress

I’m hoping for more magical, sun drenched days so I can break out all the floaty, dreamy sundresses this summer, even if it’s just for a socially distanced walk around the block. In times like these, it’s the little things that breathe meaning into our days.
