We’ve all seen the TikTokers ranting and raving about the ultra-casual yet chic vibes of the "coastal grandma” aesthetic, and I’ve decided to give the trend a try. I’d describe this aesthetic as "rich grandma by the shore”—classic yet elevated pieces that are all about comfort, lots of linen, chic sun hats, and casual flat sandals. The aesthetic definitely has an East Coast vibe with a touch of a nautical feel to it, and I’ve got to say I’m into it. When looking for pieces that fit the aesthetic, I headed to Shopbop. I found everything that I was looking for, from perfect dresses and linen pieces to sweaters and flat sandals, to help me get the look.
