Hello lovely people, there will be just one post today, given the UK is celebrating the second bank holiday in mark of the Queens Diamond Jubilee and to make sure this page and Love My Dress looks extra special pretty under the circumstances, today is all about Whichgoose, a lovely Etsy store run by designer Emily Zych who pours all her passion in to making pretty bohemian and vintage inspired headpieces and accessories for brides.
You know how much Franky and I love Etsy, erm, right? If not, you might want to familiarise yourself with this post which introduces readers to Etsy Weddings. Etsy is one of those online shopping sites you need to set aside a good chunk of time to explore. Too many beautiful links! Too much to distract you, like Whichgoose, full of adorable designs, most of which are below £100. Now that's truly excellent value for money people.
Designer Emily Zych told me…
"I established Whichgoose pretty much by accident. I started by selling vintage odds and ends and tried listing a crown that I had made. To my surprise, it sold!"

"The Whichgoose bride is a little bit bohemian mixed in with a dash of vintage romanticism. My signature style is pretty much reached when I look at a finished piece and think, "Oh! Pretty!" Then I know it's finished.
I love anything a bit out of the box – anything whimsical or slightly fairytale-like. I greatly admire the bridal wear designer Monique Lhuillier and have a secret desire of one day making crowns for her runway shows. I love the idea that I'm making something that a girl will put on her head and feel special. It's a great feeling…"
