It is of flower fields, gardens, gardening, greenery and any aspect connected to nature. Many fashion trends include these themes of a quiet life to modern clothing styles and outfits and succeed. The concentration of natural elements and components is very important to said aesthetics.

    In general, these aesthetics are the idyllic and often romanticized versions of being out in nature.

In any case, we advise you to only wear whatever makes you the happiest and more like yourself.
