Guide to Cottagecore Fashion

You might be asking “what is cottagecore fashion?” I’ve been seeing this all over Pinterest, but this style has been around a lot longer than the word “cottagecore.” Think of it as the latest interpretation of chic, prairie style. Cottagecore aesthetic borrows from the grandma styles, farm girl dresses, and fairy pastels that have been inspiring spring and summer trends. If you’re picturing smocked bodices, puff sleeves, ruffled necklines, soft pastels and micro florals, that is all part of cottagecore style.

Here are a few cottagecore fashion essentials you can shop right now on Amazon.
