Botanical Academia

Sage Knits & Wildflower Silks

A flat lay of a botanical outfit featuring a sage green sweater, a white midi skirt with green floral patterns, cream block-heel sandals, and a straw basket bag on a textured rug.

this Look is a masterclass in organic textures. We’ve evolved the sage green tones from our technical gorpcore sets into a soft-ribbed crewneck sweater. This is paired with a flowing botanical-print midi skirt, bringing the floral inspiration of our fall-ready looks into a lighter, airy territory. The look is finished with straw textures and cream accents, moving away from heavy leather boots toward a more relaxed, summery sophistication.

Get the Look:

  • The Knit: A lightweight, sage green ribbed sweater with a classic crew neckline.
  • The Bottoms: A high-waisted white midi skirt featuring a dense, botanical leaf and wildflower print in varying shades of green.
  • The Footwear: Elegant cream strappy sandals with a low block heel for a polished yet comfortable garden stride.
  • The Carry: A woven straw basket bag with rounded handles, perfect for carrying field guides or fresh-cut roses.
  • The Details: A set of forest green hardback books tied with twine and a simple gold bracelet to maintain the academic edge.

Oatmeal Knits & Shadowed Florals

A flat lay of a sun-drenched botanical outfit featuring a ribbed oatmeal sweater, a pleated floral skirt, tan sandals, and a round straw bag on a jute rug.

The Sun-Drenched Botanist Look is all about warm monochromatic layering with a dark floral twist. We’ve traded the bright sage sweater for a heavyweight ribbed sweater in oatmeal, which provides a cozy, academic texture. The pleated midi skirt features a delicate charcoal-and-cream floral print, offering a moodier, vintage-inspired alternative to the lush greens seen previously. Grounded by tan strappy sandals, this look is the ultimate bridge between a library study session and a late afternoon garden walk.

Get the Look:

  • The Knit: A cropped, ribbed-knit crewneck sweater in a warm oatmeal or toasted oat shade.
  • The Bottoms: A pleated chiffon midi skirt with a high-contrast charcoal wildflower print on a cream base.
  • The Footwear: Nude or tan strappy block-heel sandals that elongate the leg while remaining garden-ready.
  • The Carry: A circular woven straw bag with a crossbody strap, adding a touch of rustic utility.
  • The Details: A trio of vintage blue and brown books tied with twine and a simple gold cuff bracelet.
