Pretty accessories – lace trims, light frills and floral sprigs

Pretty sprigs, lace trims, light frills, gingham and florals bring a freshness to accessories. With echoes of classic Laura Ashley design and also tapping in to the current #cottagecore vibe, versatile looks can be created which are both romantic and edgy. Pretty ‘garland’ socks with a delicate flower design come in cream, yellow and brown, while ‘floral line with lavender and tiny white sprigs have a base of soft white and muted moss green. For a real ‘prairie girl’ feel there are socks like ‘belle bow’ and ‘rose frill trim’ which have the additional details of ruffled edges and bows.

Gingham roll-top socks come in a range of five great colours and brand new this season, ‘spring checkers’, in three gorgeous pastel combinations. The latest tartans in the collection come in unusual heather hues, marshland shades and sunset tones which have a natural country feel.

Pretty floral jewellery can be found in the Gallery Collection with ‘Tea garden’, being one of our most popular and enduring lines. It is a range of classic blue and white ceramic bead necklaces, earrings and bracelets decorated with delicate ‘Delft’ blue sprigs. ‘Country garden’, also in ceramic, has a lovely ‘cottage garden’ feel with its traditional pink rose design. Why not add a touch of fun with a sweet ceramic cup and saucer drop earring.

Expanding on the pretty ‘cottage core’ theme there is hair-wear such as the blue and white scrunchie assortment of striped and spot designs. Wired wrap around hair ties come in slightly bolder stripes, flowers and dots and even the tartan versions can have quite a pretty look. A dainty star print and lace drawstring cotton purse makes a nice and inexpensive ‘add on’ purchase. Another option is to offer it as gift packaging for jewellery items.
