now on to the aesthetic i almost classified myself but i know a lot of people love it :) 

Cottagecore (also known under the name Farmcore or Countrycore) is an aesthetic inspired by a 

romanticized interpretation of western agricultural life. It is centered on ideas around of a more simple life and 

harmony with nature. Certain themes associated are the survival of the environment, food and caring for 

people.

so this is my personal aesthetic. literally as soon as i heard the words "chaotic academia" i was like, yes! thats me! :D 

 

I have always been very interested in aesthetics. 

And as i got more and more interested, i started researching and studying them. If there was a degree in aesthetics, i would have graduated by now lol. 

So i figured that i would share my knowledge with all of you! And maybe help you to discover your aesthetic. 

Now Dark Academia has many sub genres and i will be going through all of those as well in other posts. But for now, i'd just like to focus on Dark Academia itself. 

Dark Academia is an aesthetic that revolves around classic literature, the pursuit of self-discovery, and a 

general passion for knowledge and learning. It is one out of several variations, each with their own unique 

historical focus. Dark Academia visually stems from European cultures, as with its most well known variations.

some activities you can do to dive deeper into the aesthetic are: 

-drink tea out of fancy teacups

-light candles and read by candlelight

-dry flowers and decorate your room

-give handwritten letters

-wake up before the sunrise to watch the dawn 

These are of course not necessary to do, just some suggestions if you want to do them!! 

I hope you all enjoyed this journey into Dark Academia! Let me know what your aesthetic is! And has you may have noticed, i redesigned my blog to better reflect mine! i shall reveal that one next week! :D
