Fashion Brief
‘The leaves swayed gently and glistened in the morning light, and a great many birds were dashing back and forth, screeching with delight’ – a quote from The Memoirs of Moominpappa, by Tove Jansson. I am obsessed with the feeling of escapism you get from the Moomin books – each steeped in the loveliest sense of adventure. It makes me want to run free in some woods.
If you’re feeling similarly nymph-like, how about we take it a step further and cover our bare skin with golden fern leaves or muted coloured, floral sleeve tattoos? My favourites are by Pen Plant, which makes beautiful temporary tatts that are easy to apply and remove, so we can morph into woodland goddesses at our hearts’ desire.
The gold collection adds shimmer to a décolletage, forehead or wrist. Now head to the Woodland Trust website to find your local woods, add a leafy design to your bod and go hug some trees. I feel Moominpappa would approve.
