Despite what the name implies, this look does not require you to live by a coast, nor does it mean you have to be an actual grandma. Coined by influencer Lex Nicoleta<\/a>, the term “Coastal Grandmother” refers to that laid-back, breezy, beachy vibe you see in many a Nancy Meyers<\/a> movie. Think neutral colors, blue and white<\/a> combos, natural fabrics<\/a> like cotton, linen, and straw, and living-your-best-life staples like caftans, cozy knits, woven sun hats, and straight-leg jeans<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"linen

Um, why the heck not? “Coastal Grandmother” is an escapist vibe to be sure; it’s a way to transport yourself to a luxurious lifestyle where you spend your days tending to your garden at the beach house, wearing a bucket hat and a luxe cardigan<\/a>. Incidentally, and perhaps unsurprisingly, the aesthetic is also trending hard in home decor.<\/p>\n
