BRB LIVING OUT OUR COTTAGECORE DREAMS WITH A COTTAGECORE WEDDING RING

Imagine this: you and your partner live in a quaint cottage in the country side. Together, the two of you embrace a slow lifestyle. Every morning, you enjoy your daily morning coffee with eggs collected from your clutch of hens and a loaf of crusty-just baked bread. During the day, you roam the countryside, harvesting, gardening, and foraging food, vintage shopping, and taking in the sights of your beautiful surroundings. At night, you cozy up to your partner by the fire and enjoy a hearty meal prepared with fresh ingredients from the garden and local farmers’ markets.

Swooning? We know we are. Penned "cottagecore", this romanticized way of living is all about being in the moment, being present, and enjoying quiet moments with your partner in the natural world. And while cottagecore living may not be accessible for everyone, the cottagecore style certainly is, particularly with jewelry! Below, we break down what the cottagecore aesthetic actually is and share our 8 favorite cottagecore-inspired engagement rings, so you can experience your own taste of the good life without ever stepping foot in nature!

WHAT IS THE COTTAGECORE AESTHETIC?

Cottagecore is an aesthetic trend that involves a romanticized depiction of rural life. Like the description we painted above, cottagecore is all about embracing and celebrating the simple yet elegant charms coexisting next to nature with limited access to technology.

The cottagecore aesthetic is characterized by its rustic look and vintage feel. Think white floaty peasant blouses with floral corsets and lacy skirts. Fine jewelry is often delicate and vintage-looking, featuring delicate filigree designs and tiny gemstones. The most prevalent color palette is pastel. Floral prints are common, but they often come in muted tones such as dusty rose or pale green.

CHARACTERISTICS OF COTTAGECORE WEDDING RINGS AND ENGAGEMENT RINGS

A cottagecore ring will always balance timeless beauty with a hint of the unexpected. It’s a perfect piece for someone who enjoys wearing pieces that are both classic and modern, yet always have a soft edge. You can generally find cottagecore rings to have one or more of the following characteristics:

SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS

Because cottagecore is all about getting back to nature you can expect to find various sustainable materials within your engagement ring or wedding band such as recycled gold, ethically sourced diamonds, and hand forged sterling silver.

NATURAL ELEMENTS

Cottagecore jewelry perfectly tap into the natural beauty of the world with dainty details and unique nature-inspired styles. Many engagement ring retailers who specialize in the cottagecore aesthetic will have a nature-inspired jewelry collection of rings that sparkle and gleam with the same beauty that mother nature does.

DELICATE BUT DURABLE DETAILS
