Jul 13, 2022by Dana Dantoni

You might have heard of “grandmillenial” style or “Nancy Meyers chic” but have you heard of “Coastal Grandmother?” TikTok influencer Lex Nicoleta created this trendy term that everyone is talking about. The best part is that you do no have to be a grandmother or live by the coast to achieve this aesthetic!

So you may be wondering, "how do I achieve this aesthetic?" Great question! Think of the lifestyle of living in The Hamptons; living in a luxurious oceanfront property as if you were in a Diane Keaton movie; a clean and slower paced leisurely lifestyle. A Coastal Grandmother’s home is cozy, comfortable, bright, laid-back, and chic.

Here are some tips for achieving the Coastal Grandmother aesthetic in your home:

1. Fresh Flowers

Adding a touch of fresh flowers on display in your kitchen or living room space will add a pop of color in your home. A coastal grandma would have gotten these flowers at the local market or from her own garden. The arrangement of flowers will consist of blue, white, green, or soft pink hues. Hydrangeas or orchids are a great option to start with. Add some fresh greenery on your windowsill as well and you’re one step closer to this easy-going lifestyle.

2. Cottons and Linens

Let the light shine in and breeze flow through your home with rich fabric window coverings. The perfect colors for your window treatments are white, tan, and neutral tones.

3. Stacked Books and Candles

Decorate your living space with books and candles. Stack together some cook books to inspire your home cooked meals made with fresh produce from your local farmer’s market, or stack decorative books. Or create a stack of your favorite reads so you can easily grab them for the beach or a nice day on the porch. Laying back with a good book, lit candles, and a glass of white wine will put your right in the carefree lifestyle of a coastal grandmother.

4. Throw Pillows and Cozy Blankets
