What I’m adding to my collections (and buying) for spring: Cotswolds Edition!
I’m headed on a very exciting trip with my mom to England this summer. We’re headed to the Newt, the sister property to one of the most incredible stops on our honeymoon, Babylonstoren, as well as Cliveden House. I’ve never been to the English Countryside and we are super excited! Along the way, I’m excited to visit Daylesford Organic, The Royal Ascot for an afternoon and show my mom around the London my husband and I know and love. I’m sure plenty of shopping will be done on the trip but there is so much I’d love to prep ahead of it for chilly morning walks, dinners etc! Here’s what is in my England Collection:
This silk dress with a built-in cape for the Royal Ascot
A Doen dress for dinner at the hotel
This plaid dress for tea
A showstopping Ulla Johnson organza dress for dinner at the Cliveden dining room
Love this more casual nap dress for a more laid-back evening (also love I would wear it all the time at home)
Varley fleece coat for early morning farm walks at the Newt
A casual denim dress for sightseeing
Tell me what you’re shopping for and I’ll make a fun collection for you, too 🙂
