Staring at the resplendent amphibians atop the greenery of this cotton dress took me back, immediately, to my time living in Monteverde, Costa Rica - the cloud forest.

Staring at the resplendent amphibians atop the greenery of this cotton dress took me back, immediately, to my time living in Monteverde, Costa Rica - the cloud forest. Every morning on my way to the school in which I worked, I’d stop halfway up a huge hill and look out to where, miles and miles away, I could see the western coast. It truly felt like the top of the world, and now, that feeling can be yours! Monteverde’s a place where life pulses all around you, from the daily rains to its daily routines, a buzzing energy hums under a cloud of calm and often, quiet, broken only by a monkey hopping onto a tree branch, a distant unknown bird call, or a dog trotting along behind you. This dress captures the essence of this place brilliantly - it’s A-line, sweetheart silhouette and bold print will add energy to a daytime look, while the 100% cotton construction, side pockets, and shorter length reflect you’re laid back ‘pura vida’ attitude. While I wouldn’t wear it to zip line through the canopy, I would wear it to a garden party with red espadrille wedges and a cropped cardi. Enjoy this fresh take on flora and fauna, which is sure to add life and biodiversity to your wardrobe! - Jess, Fashion Writer
