Floral, homely and gently old-fashioned.

Cottagecore

Cottagecore is the romance of a country cottage: floral prints, painted furniture, dried flowers, china on open shelves and a kettle always on. It is cosy, soft and a little nostalgic. It suits small rooms, where its layers feel generous rather than cramped.
