It's no secret that we love all things girly, so I've gone all out for this week's Stuff We Love with a collection of decidedly girly companies, but each has their own particular aesthetic. Each is quite different. From a vintage inspired boutique in Cork, to an online stationery company or pretty gifts perfect for bridesmaids, which is your favourite Stuff We Love find?
Brocade and Lime
This Cork based Irish boutique is a haven for any vintage fans. These guys stock a wealth of vintage and vintage inspired dresses, accessories, millinery and shoes. Sourcing their stock from around the globe Brocade and Lime's varied collection has everything from swinging 60's frocks to the shorter fuller skirts of the 50's. Lots of these dresses would make for adorable bridesmaid dresses, sure you mightn't be able to get 3 or 4 the exact same but stick to a similar colour palette or even decade of style and your bridesmaids will be more than pleased with their less than traditional dresses. Coming into winter Brocade and Lime also have a great range of fur cover ups, if you need a little inspo just look at real wedding bride Shirley decked out in a fab Brocade and Lime stole. www.brocadeandlime.com
Peonie Cole Textiles
Peonie Cole Textiles is a delectable little English business that we found during the week and that we all unanimously agree is adorable! The company of recent real wedding bride Catherine (check out her floral-tastic wedding here) Peonie Cole specialises in all things pretty, and usually flower adorned. Specifically for wedding Catherine has designed a range of bride and bridesmaid floral pouches and dainty little pocket mirrors - perfect for pre or post ceremony touch ups. All of the pouches can be customised with initials, names or something more personal to you and your bridesmaids. A perfectly sweet little wedding day gift for all the bridal party. peoniecole.bigcartel.com
Style & Joy
Last but not least some girly minimalism in the form of Style & Joy wedding stationery. This collection is a great option for any who likes pale pinks and pastels but doesn't want to go OTT candyfloss and love hearts. All of these designs are pared back simplicity with the attention in the details. I love the graphic shapes and contemporary texts of the Wonderful Time selection - understated but still quite fun and definitely something your guests won't have seen come through their letterbox before. www.styleandjoy.co.uk
