6 Aesthetics That You NEED To Know About
Dark Academia
ย
Walking down the halls of an old spiralling library, where you find old yellow parchment binded into a book. You take it out, carefully, and begin to read the beautifully crafted poetry that showcases the true reality of humanity itself. This is a look into the world Dark Academias have created, with palettes of black, brown, beige and dark hues, making studying cool again. If you enjoy blazers, preppy sweaters, subdued colours, coffee and enjoy classical music - this may be your calling.
Soft Girl
ย Pinks, whites, barrettes, glossy lips, dreamy vibes - everything cute and soft is exactly who the Soft Girl is. The new โGirl-Next-Doorโ who is the cuter (yes, thatโs possible!) version of the now infamous E-Girl. Instead of leaning more towards the โemoโ side, she enjoys tracks by Ariana Grande and everything KAWAII! This style is often associated with feminism because of the notion that while you can be hella soft and cute, youโre still a strong individual with cemented ideals and beliefs. So embrace the pink and soft side of you girl!

Streetwear
ย
ย For all of you casual gals out there who prioritise comfort over EVERYTHING ELSE, this is the aesthetic for you. Streetwear is inspired by a variety of elements (which is what makes it so fun to experiment with!) like Japanese street wear, punk elements and hip hop fashion. While wearing branded clothing was the epitome of this style, it has evolved so that wearing unique symbols is the most crucial aspect. Graphic tees, chunky chains, cargo pants, black straight leg jeans and any funky designs are what make this style up.

Cottage Coreย

Some key elements of this aesthetic are long layered dresses, gingham, strawberries, milkmaid necklines, puff sleeves and ruffles.

Vintageย
ย ยย Crackling vinyls, shimmering gold accessories, emerald greens and that glow filter - is what we mean by a Vintage aesthetic. While the term vintage is sometimes used as an umbrella term for anything from the past, in current times it refers to the fashion style and whole look of Lana Del Rayโs world. The Vintage aesthetic highlights the best part of old fashion whilst playing with some modern silhouettes, which will make you look like a glowy queen.ย

Itโs all the trend right now, with people revisiting styles of the late 90s and all of the 00s in a modern way. Wear super short crops and skirts, denim on denim, fluffy coats, glitter, logos, butterfly clips - just be a very extra IRL Bratz doll. Thatโs the ultimate dream right? So are you nostalgic about the 00s (or just really adore the aesthetic)?
