The Miss Honey lifestyle:

🌸₊˚ 🦢・₊✧𓍢ִ໋🌷͙֒

Your very brave Miss Honey…

“Not as brave as you ♡”

I can imagine she spends her days in the garden, drinking tea and marking the workbooks of her class, reading books, painting and baking cookies. So I just had to write this post 🌷♡

How to live a “Miss Honey” lifestyle:

Spend time being present. Don’t spend too much time on your phone/looking at the online world. I can imagine she prefers books to her mobile any day. Take note of the world around you and how lucky you are to live in nature

Take up hobby’s. Baking, painting, knitting, crochet, pottery, gardening, flower pressing - any cottage-core-type hobby’s that you can spend your weekends & free time doing

Invest in a complete, cottage-core wardrobe. With pastels, florals, tea dresses, maxi dresses, blouses, skirts, dungarees etc - (Her outfits in the movie for reference are all gorgeous!)

Read a lot. Miss Honey is known for her love of books and I can imagine she has a great many at home. Display books in your room/around your space and always have one to hand. Read in the garden, in the morning, of any evening, whenever you get the chance 📖

Spend time outdoors. Wether it’s in your garden, going on walks through the forest, trips to your local bakery. Walk places or even cycle

Don’t be afraid to live carefree and free-spirited. Miss Honey loves to have fun and doesn’t mind spending time doing something just for her enjoyment (we can see this at the end of the movie)

Collect cute cottage-y dinnerware and tea sets to make your afternoon tea extra special

Drink tea and cookies frequently 🫖🍪

And most importantly… be kind and caring to all. Show understanding and think of others as well as yourself. Take care of yourself though and always stand up for what is right 😊🍓🫖✨

Miss Honey girls 🍯💐

Kind and gentle, the cottagecore girls who love flowers, Springtime, walking in meadows and the sound of birdsong. She’s always dressed in florals or pastels and though she is quiet, isn’t afraid to speak her mind and stand up for what is right. Her gentleness is her power and she uses it greatly. Would much rather stay in and read with a mug of hot tea than go out, adores sunshine but lives for the cozy weather and cozy energy the colder months bring. Enjoys drinking tea and eating cookies, fresh fruit, warm drinks, sandwiches and anything light. Is always reading and loves to learn, always smells of sweet florals and fresh daisy’s. Spends her free time painting, having picnics, at the library and reading ₊˚🌷ʚ ᗢ₊˚🍰✧ ﾟ. ྀི.

Coquette Spring Morning Routine ⛅️♡

My Coquette Spring Morning Routine ૢ✧∘* ✧･ﾟ

Now the weather has been warming up, I think it’s so important to get into a new routine, to help myself emerge out of Winter hibernation. Here is my updated Spring morning routine 🦢

I wake up around 6:30/7:00 AM (I love waking up early, if I don’t I feel like I have wasted my day lol) I’ve been sleeping in my vintage nightdress now the weather is warming up and every morning when I awake, I feel like a princess ⛅️

I put my slippers on, open up my curtains and get a cold drink because the weather has been warming up, I take it back into my room to read in bed for a little while (I work from home so don’t have to get up in a rush which is lovely) I’ve been currently reading through my Spring tbr, and it’s so satisfying to tick off each book when I have finished reading it <3

Whilst I wake up I like to play classical music (it makes me feel like I’m in a fairytale in the morning) read my current book in bed, or watch an episode of something comforting, usually a Spring or cottagecore themed show. I try not to look at social media too much because I find it overwhelming, especially in the morning before I start my day 📖

I get up and make my bed (always) and then have a shower. If it’s a Sunday I spend ages pampering myself and do the “everything shower” (but I’ll get into that when I write my Sunday routine) brush my teeth and get dressed (I try to always pick out my outfit the night before)

Then I go into the kitchen and make myself some breakfast, I usually read at the breakfast table when eating 🍓

I come back into my room to do my hair and my makeup, and to give my room a once over tidy. Then I spend about 30 minutes journaling or writing in my dream journal if I can remember anything from my dreams that previous night.

I pack my bag for the day if I have to run errands and make sure I’ve got everything, then I choose my scent and put my perfume on 🪷

Thank you for reading, I absolutely love mornings because it feels like a fresh start and a new beginning of another beautiful day. Hopefully it gave you some inspiration to construct your own coquette morning routine for Spring 🌸

Spring Night Routine

🍃🫧*ੈ✩‧₊˚🌙

My current Spring night routine, that hopefully inspires you guys and gives you some structure and ideas on how you can plan out your seasonal night routine this Spring ༓ ☾.｡*ﾟ+

6PM - I try to finish all *work* and projects for the day, I try not to go on my phone so much as the evening goes on ♡

6:30PM - I either have an evening shower and take off my makeup/do my skincare early so I can spend the rest of the evening doing wind-down activities and getting ready for the night. I put my pyjamas on and light a candle in my room so that it smells fresh and lovely when I go back in later ♡

7:00PM - I’ll have a late dinner and usually watch an episode of something comforting whilst I eat. Sometimes this can also be a movie, any Spring seasonal movie of an evening makes me so happy and reminds me it’s this time of year. This is also when I’ll either have a sweet treat or snack or something I’ve either bought from the bakery or baked myself in the day. I know it’s not good to eat late, especially sugar but I try to leave a good gap between the time I eat and the time I go to sleep ♡

8:00/8:30PM - I will go back into my bedroom and put some classical music on or lullaby instrumentals as I find they make me feel the most relaxed and sleepy. Then I give my room a once over tidy so it’s clean when I wake up in the morning. I pick out an outfit for the next day and either lay it out or hang it up ♡

9:00PM - I’ll brush my hair out one last time for the day and tie it back to sleep in. Then I’ll write my to-do list for the next day (usually at my desk with the candle until I blow it out) I also journal for around 15 minutes, just about how my day was ♡

9:30PM/10:00PM - I will either spend some time with my parents before I go into my own room, get into bed and watch an episode of something comforting (usually Anime) read until I feel sleepy, then I go to sleep ♡

I hope you liked this Spring Night routine, I’ll upload my current Morning routine soon. Sending love and whimsical wishes to you all ☽

All my love…

Kellen ✨🌙

How to romanticise Spring:

Some ideas and things you can do to romanticise the Spring season 🫧˚˖𓍢ִ໋🌷͙֒✧˚.🧚🏻‍♀️.

Spring Wardrobe - Spring is the perfect time to start integrating new pieces into your wardrobe. Long flowing dresses, maxi skirts, pretty blouses, milkmaid dresses/shirts, rompers, dungarees, mini skirts, cami’s and so much more. Make sure to add a pair of new Spring pumps (Mary janes are perfect) and some pretty floral hair bandanna’s and flower crowns in there too. Pastel pinks, yellows, blues, greens and white fit perfect for this time of year, along with patterns and materials like floral print and lace 🩰

Change your eating habits. Put away the comfort food from winter and indulge in the delicious delicacy’s of Spring. Fresh fruit and vegetables can make endless recipes for Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner, sweet things like Oatmeal, Honey, gelato and any particularly sweet fruits are perfect for this time of year 🍒🥗🍵

Consume Spring media 💐 The media you consume affects your mood, consuming uplifting Spring content will not only make you feel happier in yourself, but will also make you look forward to and romanticise the season more. I have a list of Movies, TV shows & books you can consume in Spring that I will be uploading shortly ☀️

Read Spring books. There are SO many out there, classics are perfect for this time of year but any whimsical, forest-core, fantasy story’s like “The Hobbit” or “The legend of King Arthur” are perfect too 📖

Listen to classical music, movie soundtracks and pretty instrumentals whenever you are doing any of the following activities (I find it helps romanticising a lot! 🎶🌷)

Have a picnic outside - Bring a wicker picnic basket, beautiful picnic blanket, fancy plates and cutlery and have a picnic fit for a countryside princess outside, either at the park or in a field. Wear a big sun hat to keep shaded from the sun and be sure to bring the essentials (Princess picnic food can include miniature sandwiches, scones, cookies, cakes & cupcakes, fruits like strawberries, cherries and apples, any snacks you can think of, lemonade and sweet iced tea) 🌷

Host a Tea Party (either indoors or outside) Set a table with all your finest dinnerware pieces, wear a floaty dress and white gloves, and use your most precious Teapot to pour fruity and sweet flavoured teas into any delicate teacups you can find. You can even make this Bridgerton inspired and have a high-tea esque party. With cookies and strawberry shortcake, cupcakes and miniature sandwiches. Make sure to set the table with a pretty tablecloth, fresh flowers and napkins/fine cutlery for yourself or your guests. Play some classical music and enjoy 🫖

Go berry/fruit picking. This time of year is perfect for Strawberry, Cherry’s & fruit picking in general. Wear a big straw hat, a long dress and don’t forget to bring your basket with you to collect the fruit in 🍓

Visit a flower field 🌸 💐 this time of year, flowers are in full bloom. Wear the most beautiful dress and a flower crown, so you are ready to twirl in the flower fields to your hearts content 🌷

Bake new Spring recipes. There are SO many Spring/Easter baking ideas on Pinterest. Have a look at any and compile a list of Bakes you want to try this Spring season 🍰

Cook new Spring recipes, you can even incorporate any new foods you have tried into the recipes and be sure to write them down in your recipe book 🥧

Make flower crowns! You can use fresh flowers or fake flowers, some wire or plain headbands. Get creative with them, use flowers, gems, lace, ribbon (this is a lovely activity to do with friends outside) 🌸

Press flowers (Such a Spring fairy activity!) any wild flowers you find (preferably dying or damaged) take them home and press them in a heavy book

Go on Forest Fairy walks. Explore your local forests, parks, meadows in the most vibrant green and pink dresses, wear flower crowns and just be one with nature, listen to fairytale music and take in the wildlife and nature around you 🧚‍♀️

Decorate your bedroom/space for Spring. This can be as simple as changing the bedding or by going all out and re-decorating your room completely. Fresh flowers, fake plants, cottage-core illustrations of animals look lovely too 🌷

Celebrate Easter like a Spring princess (really get into it this year) enjoy a beautiful Spring breakfast, paint eggs, eat chocolate, do some Easter bakes in the kitchen, make Easter Sunday a special day for you 🐣

Journal/Sketch/Paint - Painting outside is one of my favourite things to do, and you could even set up your easel/painting supplies in a garden or local field and paint the scenery 💐 Journalling all about your pretty Spring days can be uplifting and I find that sketching illustrations of Flowers, woodland animals and just Nature in general makes me feel so at ease any time I do so 🦢

Visit historical places like castles, botanical gardens and garden centres. These places are always abloom in Spring. Most of these places offer café’s and afternoon tea’s too! 🌸

Visit a cute Café for afternoon tea 🫖 (Make sure to wear a pretty outfit!)

Go frolicking in meadows. Roll down hills and twirl in flower fields 🌼

Feed birds and take time out to Spend time with nature and wildlife 🐰

I hope this helped and gave you some ideas, made you feel happy or comforted whilst reading and most importantly, inspired you to live life to the fullest and most beautiful it can be this Springtime 💐📖🎀 All my love ~ Kellen

Spring is nearly here my doves, which means longer days, picnics in the park, flower picking, frolicking in meadows, wearing the most beautiful fairy outfits, sweet tea and lemonade, trips to garden centers, botanical gardens, Jane Austen novels, magical forests and so much more…

I love you all 💐✨

February༄₊🍓♡⋆🍰✿

Lipstick stained love letters, cups of warm coffee, red splashed everywhere, winter bleeding into Spring, slow evenings by candlelight, dark chocolate and rom-com movie marathons. Early Sunday baking, pyjama days, writing in your diary about your latest crush, romance novel reading, candy hearts and pink skies at dusk ༄₊♡⋆

Away with the fairies… literally. Carefree and whimsical, your aura is yellow and your energy is pure and kind. Pastel floral patterns, flowy skirts and frizzy hair clipped back with sparkly 90’s hair-clips. Rings on every finger and jewellery on top of jewellery. Crazy cat lady with big chunky boots, patterned handbags, shimmery eyeshadow and a guitar over your shoulder, a true-life, forest fairy. Horoscopes tell the truth for you, and incense, candles and tapestry’s fill your witchy room. Your a true, loyal friend, with the voice of an angel… (sort of 😉) ☾𖤓🎵❀˖°🎶

🦢🌬January Girls ૢ✧∘*

She wakes up early to read and journal, her TBR list is the longest it’s been in years. 2024 is her year. Indulging in self care after an afternoon of winter walks and pilates is her new favorite thing. 90’s blowout hair and fresh French-tip nails always, her mornings consist of cups of dark coffee, a tidy room and listening to her newly formed playlist. Her wardrobe this month is full of faux fur, whites, creams, grey’s and blacks. Cashmere scarfs, oversized sweaters and big black boots. Healthy meal preps, to-do lists and schedules have her week fully planned, with Sundays designated to her specifically. Comfort films, baking and winter naps. Her room is a sanctuary of cozy. Huge fluffy blankets, candles galore and warm fairy-lights for a nostalgic and comforting atmosphere. Her morning and night routine suit her needs, and excitement for the new year ahead radiates from her ˚ ༘♡ ·˚ ₊˚ˑ༄ؘ

How to romanticise January 🦢✩₊˚☁️⋆☾🌬₊✧

Happy first week of January completed!

I know January can be one of the dullest & hardest months, especially because Christmas is over, it’s still wintery & cold and it’s back to “normality” but here are some things you can do to make January a beautiful and cozy month ✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

Embrace the beauty of new beginning’s. Have an everything shower, create a new schedule, tidy your bedroom/space, organise your work, clean, plan a glow-up/plan for the new year. It’s a new year which means new beginnings so embrace these changes. Change can be scary but it is needed and can be beautiful ₊˚⊹♡

Invest in YOU. Save up money (or use money from Christmas) to get your hair done, a new manicure, buy a new item of clothing, invest in self care products i.e - A new robe/fluffy dressing gown, skincare products, new January pyjamas etc ₊˚⊹♡

Journal. Purchase a journal and practice journaling. You can do morning/night journalling, or write about what you did that day. There are loads of Journal prompts on Pinterest ₊˚⊹♡

Wear white’s, creams, beige’s, baby pink’s, grey’s & browns. Neutral colours look stunning this time of year, especially when there it’s frost on the ground or it’s raining outside. Perfect for outfit pictures ₊˚⊹♡

Bundle up in your nicest coat and scarf and go on a wintery walk. Take outfit pictures and listen to romantic music as you walk. Bring back dead leaves from the trees and press them to create a winter journal page ₊˚⊹♡

Bake - Bake anything. The new year is the perfect time to try new recipes, maybe try some healthy baking recipes. Take photos of them and write the recipes down in a notebook ₊˚⊹♡

Have cozy movie marathons, watch your favorite comfort films under huge blankets with hot cocoa, in a cute mug ₊˚⊹♡

Heal your inner child. Listen to classical music, ballet music and movie soundtracks, to take you far away to whimsical places. Light candles, watch nostalgic movies & tv shows, read your childhood favourite books ₊˚⊹♡

Eat warming, nourishing and comforting foods. January can be one of the coldest and hardest months for your body and mind, nourish your soul with warm soups, hot drinks etc ₊˚⊹♡

Start new habits/hobbies, Yoga, Pilates, (Working out in general) Painting, Crochet. Having a new hobby means you can always go back to it in the year ₊˚⊹♡

Read - Create a new TBR if you haven’t and start it at the top. Read new books and make your way through the list ₊˚⊹♡

Try frosty “Cold Girl” makeup with beige undertones for January. Try a new lip colour or put something shimmery on your eyelids. Also, give your makeup a clean (your brushes, palettes etc) ₊˚⊹♡

Take care of your skin babydoll. Use a moisturiser after showering, wear hand cream, use a good winter primer for your makeup, always take your makeup off in the evening and never miss a morning/evening of winter skincare. This is when your skin needs it the most ₊˚⊹♡

Get a new daily coffee order/go to coffee order at your local coffee shop. Try something new ₊˚⊹♡

Try going on daily walks ₊˚⊹♡

Self care nights at least once a week (working week) and set aside Sunday’s to have self care DAY’S ₊˚⊹♡

Start a new TV series ₊˚⊹♡

Limit screen time ₊˚⊹♡

Make lists of things you want to go that day ₊˚⊹♡

[coqxettee]

January ・༓ ☾.｡*ﾟ+. *.｡

Old money, New beginning’s, resolutions, workout routines, healthy eating, getting organised, building your capsule wardrobe, black blazers, white faux fur, gratitude journaling, icy mornings, velvety latté’s, beige’s & bundling up in cashmere wool, winter walks, roll neck sweaters in neutral shades, chunky black boots, voluminous, silky hair, blankets of snow, 2-piece suits, tweed, gold jewellery, lipgloss & self care Sundays ・༓ ☾.｡*ﾟ+. *.｡

[coqxettee]

Christmas Eve… ⁺ ˚*・༓ ☾.｡*ﾟ+. *.｡

Excitement is unmatched and the magic is alive. Wintery walks and a Christmas light drive. Hearts are racing and twinkle lights glow, and the clouds gather vast, preparing for snow. Last minute rushes to the busy grocery stores, for snacks, new pyjamas and scented candles. As the night falls, jingle bells can be heard, and snow starts to fall, the whole household starts to stir. Floaty nightgowns, ringlet curls and red lips, Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker playing in the distance, animated movies, baking cookies and leaving them out for Santa. The smell of gingerbread, and twirling in the kitchen, shooting stars or is that a sleigh in the sky? Stocking’s hung on the end of tiny beds, and snow globes being shook before rushing into bed, and shutting your eyes tightly, wishing sleep could not come sooner… May you never be too old to search the skies on Christmas Eve ༓ ☾.｡*ﾟ+. *.｡

Christmas Eve Eve⋆꙳•̩̩͙❅*̩̩͙‧͙

(Meant to post this a couple of days ago)

“Happy Christmas Eve Eve!” The countdown to Christmas, festive “Friends” episodes, cashmere scarfs, oversized fur trim coats, silver jewellery, frosty weather, winter walks, dinner with friends, card games, laughing till you cry & sparkling champagne. Cloudy skies, magazine reading and early nights watching films under blankets, anticipating the second most magical day of the year to arrive when morning comes… ⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚ ✧˖°. ₊˚
