Style and Simplicity in the Cheshire Countryside
A Relaxed Summer Morning at the Cottages: Style and Simplicity in the Cheshire Countryside
There’s something timeless about a slow summer morning in the countryside — birdsong in the air, coffee in hand, and golden light spilling across the lawn. That’s exactly the feeling we set out to capture during our latest photoshoot, set outside the beautiful luxury holiday cottages right here in Cheshire.
Bathed in soft sunlight and surrounded by peaceful gardens, the backdrop was perfect for showcasing some of our favourite looks of the season. These are effortless outfits made for summer days — whether you're relaxing on the terrace, exploring the countryside, or simply enjoying time at home.
Charlotte embraced a clean, classic style with a crisp white R.M. Williams T-shirt, the kind of staple every summer wardrobe needs. She paired it with the elegant yet relaxed Schoffel Daphne linen trousers, perfect for keeping cool without compromising on style. On her feet? A seasonal essential — Holland Cooper slides, adding a touch of luxe with their subtle branding and chic, slip-on comfort.
Chris, meanwhile, kept things smart and breezy with the Rodd & Gunn Gimmerburn linen shirt — a laid-back button-down that feels as good as it looks. He teamed it with Schoffel shorts for a clean, casual finish, and completed the look with Dubarry deck shoes — the ultimate in all-day summer comfort, offering both style and practicality for countryside strolls or patio lounging.
And of course, no relaxed morning would be complete without the perfect cup of coffee — enjoyed in one of our charming Sophie Allport mugs. Whether you're a fan of bees, dogs, or florals, there's a design to suit every summer mood and morning brew.
This shoot wasn’t about dressing up — it was about dressing well, in pieces that move with you through the day. Light fabrics, natural tones, and a relaxed fit made each look feel effortlessly polished.
