Chances are if you’re a person that goes on the internet you’ve seen the Coastal Grandmother Trend. I’m not on TikTok, but that’s where it originated, from TikToker Lex Nicoleta who explains that it’s more of a lifestyle than just a fashion trend. Silly? Maybe, but what’s not to love about linen clothing, tomatoes from the garden, fresh cut flowers and an early bedtime? You don’t need a house on the beach or a Nancy Meyers kitchen to live the Coastal Grandmother lifestyle. “Coastal grandmother is an attempted rejection of life online and an embrace of what is real and tactile and simple.” Honestly, more of that please. This also feels like a trend I’m fully on board with. And it was pretty fun to look back at all of these old photos and outfits that I would 100% still wear! Here’s how to do the coastal grandmother aesthetic.
How To Do The Coastal Grandmother Aesthetic
Coastal Grandmother Style
Coastal grandmother style is all about breezy linen, classic stripes, chic white dresses and easy button downs. As you can probably tell there’s no such as too many stripes in my opinion. In fact, I love the AYR Deep End shirt (it also happens to be an Oprah favorite) and even better with the matching shorts. A straw hat to protect your skin from the sun while gardening and also flowy cotton gauze dress for the farmer’s market. Classic straight leg white jeans and flat sandals for sunset cocktails on the water (or in your backyard) and a heavyweight cotton stripe breton for that chilly ocean breeze. Here’s a few staples to nail the coastal grandmother aesthetic.
Coastal Grandmother Aesthetic Lifestyle
The coastal grandmother aesthetic lifestyle is right up my alley. Main hobbies include gardening, bike rides to the beach, and early morning coffee on the porch. For entertaining think homemade pesto pasta sitting under twinkle lights with fun summery cocktails or chilled white wine served in bee glassware. Little home decor touches like an herb printed cotton tea towel and garden grown peonies or roses in a vintage canning jar by the sink.
