I do find it funny that Coastal Grandma and Old Money are considered separate aesthetics when they are both just preppy style. Like down to the historical/cultural influence.
I think the biggest difference is that Coastal Grandma is a more relaxed preppy style, while Old Money can be a bit more put together and dare I say "stuffier" in appearance
coastal grandma is just old money on vacation
preppy is more to the "bow girly femenine" side, idk i found it more than the others
idk i love old money and i dont really like coastal grandma. i feel like old money is more elegant and put together
I really miss the whole “soft girl” aesthetic being a thing. I get that it’s basic, but idk I really liked that about it. Simplistic spring vibes outfits with colorful knits and fun accessories. Will be channeling soft girl vibes for this spring too
Soft Girl is perfect for Spring
Hey, if you like that you can still totally wear it, even if it's isn't the biggest trend rn
@@pustelnicaa see I’m wearing whatever I want at any point in time (usually a little out of fashion) I just miss seeing it on RUclips and tiktok and stuff. Wanting fashion content related!
Can't be more basic than goth, emo, casual or grunge.
@@Someone-qi1rr Thats true! And there’s a way to have basic/simplistic outfits within most style categories, i just like the soft girl one most
Yes, please do a video where you style aesthetics from what you have in your closet. Always fun to see how creative you can get!
I think my biggest issue with the “that girl” situation is that to achieve it you had to be thin and white and have lots of money and it’s way more exclusionary than most other aesthetics. I love karina gracias take on it & how she makes it inclusionary!
Yes. That girl does not work a 9 to 5 and only lives for self optimization
I've been missing so much cores lately, didn't even know about half of these. 🤣
And now on top of loving cottagecore, I fell in love with the coquette girl core thing, it's so soft and feminine, without being too "weird", and I feel like mashing it with some aspects of ballet core can create something wearable even in everyday life, without looking like I'm in a costume.
Wish it was longer, part two?
I wanna see hippycore(?), Kidcore, normcore, anti-fashion, goth vs emo, ect
Granola girl aesthetic too I’d like to see
Gorpcore/ clean girl aesthetic/ grannycore/
Boho style?
i 2nd this!!
there's also cyber / cyber y2k , visual kei, decora kei, harajuku
you could make a video where you try on stuff without buying it to try an aesthetic you don't like, although then you have to find somewhere with fitting rooms. or you could do a collab with someone your size who has a different style and combine closets to try to make different aesthetic outfits if you don't have the right items!
personally my style is closest to goblincore/cottage core/fairycore, but i honestly rlly love the croquette and lovecore and pilates princess aesthetics which is super strange bc i used to HATE the color pink, but now i’ve grown rlly fond of it!!
Damn you sound awesome😍
I love whimsygoth even though I wouldn't dress head to toe in it, I rather take elements from everything and mix them to create my own style 🙂
Me too!
I think it's also a different name for "witch core".
Here’s a possible video idea…as your style has evolved, maybe you can review old rankings to see if anything has changed.
I’m surprised you don’t like turquoise, I think it would look fabulous on you.
I really love Kathleen Illustrated's spin on clowncore, which is a bit more vintage and refined than the bright rainbow style :)
I LOOOOOVE Kathleen Illustrated!
@@faeriesmak Her videos are so great, right?
@@hanonymous1233 Yes! They are so fun. I am so glad that I stumbled upon her a month or so ago!
I think the arthoe esthetic really suits you! You have the personality to rock it and you look great in color 🌻
This has to be one of my favourite videos of yours I’ve been fascinated by the aesthetics lately. Is ther enough for a part two?
that means so much! possibly ❤
I agree with Christina. I learned a lot about different styles and the cross overs. Also where my style fits in. ( A combo of many depending on the day, mood and weather!)😊
I live in Australia. And at the moment harry styles is on tour here. Basically the "harry styles concert attire" is such a fun aesthetic. I was lucky enough to get a last minute ticket, and I'm so looking forward to the outfit I have planned. It's this deep fig purple sequin dress
One of the best, most informative current fashion videos I have ever seen in my zillions of years of being a fashion/style hound and lifelong thrifter. Love it. Thanks Alexa!
i feel like you should edit your tier list
the "i feel nothing" seem a bit negative for it to be in the middle. seems like a " I'm willing to experiment" or something along those lines would help you move things more to the middle BUT its probably good you know what you LIKE and what you DONT :]
I highly recommend the fashion history podcast Articles of Interest for anyone who is curious about old money/prep/ivy aesthetic! Turns out there’s way more to the history of the look, including some really interesting international crosstalk with Japan. Ivy is not my thing but the podcast made me appreciate it way more.
ohh I just listened to that the other week!! It made me appreciate ivy/preppy way more too. Though some of it still rubs me the wrong way even now,, I think something about old money/ivy aesthetic just feels classist/elitist? Idk I know that the aesthetic is separate these days but personally that's what I always think about so it irks me. But then again I like goblin core too and some ppl have been saying that that is rooted in antisemitism (still have to look into that), so there's that I guess?
My style is definitely a mix of coquette and downtown girl I love it so much, and I loved hearing your opinion on it. I feel like I've seen you wear outfits I would classify as coquette so I found it funny that you almost ranked it lower! My favorite part about it as an aesthetic is it takes inspiration from styles like balletcore and royalcore and gives it a more wearable almost y2k twist. I loved hearing your opinions on all of these aesthetics! Your videos are always so great. ❤
I love clowncore yass
We went out this weekend and I decided to rock the "old money" aesthetic my way... Think old money British country Squire. I wore plaid slacks, a cropped chunky knit sweater, a shearling vest and a silk neck scarf and leather boots. Was totally comfortable in our cold Canadian winter weather 😆 and everything, except my boots was thrifted!
I love LOVE dark colors (black, brown, gray, forest green, etc) so i literally have been looking at the aesthetics and just wearing dark versions of it LOL
I am personally always late to the aesthetic trends, like I have to see it for about a year before feeling inspired to dip my toes into it. Like last Spring I finally got into Cottagecore and this year I'm going for some Whimsygoth and Fairy Grunge looks.
That’s really cool though! You know that you like it and that you are not being tossed around with the trend cycles :) I’m literally just getting into overalls and they’ve been a trend since 2019 haha. I’m still going strong with cottage core! So just know that someone else is out there who isn’t going to just abandon cottage core for the new trend 🤗
your cardigan is so cute!!
I would love to see a grandmacore, grandpacore, or grandparent core aesthetic video or even pearlcore and prairiecore (like ranking them, or making outfits on them from what you already own)!
I'm obsessed with your cardigan. It's perfection.
LOVE the diversity in your example pictures!
I feel like this is a really good way to figure out your own style if you're still unsure. Think I may try this as I'm still developing my style as I have only just found my confidence
i love the videos u’ve been making lately !! love ur take on fashion & trends 💗
No matter what… personally, for me, clowncore is my least favorite. I just don’t like clowns 😂 but if you like it, it’s okay. It’s just not for me.
As someone who was a ballerina for over a decade, I always hated wearing my bodysuits/leg warmers out in public. I don't think Balletcore will ever click for me. I do love cottagecore though - I got my first Gunne Sax dress recently and I'm so excited to wear it this spring/summer! Also has hippycore hit the surface yet? There seems to be quite a demand for 70s clothes in the vintage market right now.
Okay I‘m so here for your videos lately!!😍
omg i LOVE cottagecore!
All the outfits under avante basics are 1:1 copies of clothes that people wore at the end of the 90s into early 2000s ... I had some of them. Like the red swirly pants w black cardigan. Green cardigan. Cow print turtle neck. Green swirly skirt. The checkers print. Don't know where the trend came from but the style is the most accurate dupe of a style I've ever seen outside of actual vintage clothes
My favorite aesthetician I think are whimsygoth and coastal grandmother.
Aesthetician=someone who specializes in aesthetics
Can we make this a term pls
@@allana1997lol stupid autocorrect on my phone! I meant favorite aesthetics!
I love how absolutely different my style is from yours. Always makes your videos so interesting 🫶🏼
Love your cardi! My faves are cottagecore, balletcore, and the two academias!
I was (and still am) obsessed with Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette.
Love this video and your cardigan, OMG, is so cute! 💚
This is so interesting!! There were some styles I thought you would put higher up, so its so cool to see your fashion taste!
I'd love one of these videos but ranking J-fashion styles. Like decora, hime gyaru, mori kei, EGL, etc.
Dang, I didn't have a name for it, but A LOT of my friends dressed in fairy and goblin core in high school. I was more goth, but I definitely had some tiered skirts, too. I think we probably ALL qualified in the 'weird girl 'aesthetic, lol.
I think a fun way for you to thrift items to try styles-that you’d never wear again- would be to three outfits for the aesthetic, and then sell it as a bundle. The drawbacks would be that only people your size or similar could buy it, but (as someone who’s nowhere near your size) I’d still find that fun to watch! Just an idea.
Hi Alexa! I love this video so much!
For me (although I only realised through this videos that those are aesthetics 😂) :
What I love and wear: Art hoe, coconut girl, vsco girl, goblin core
What I would love to wear/partly wear: weird girl, fairy core, mermaid core 😮😍, dark and light academia
What I wear when I don't care 😅: downtown girl
Like it on other people: E-girl, Mall goth, wymsy goth
Indifferent towards: 2014 tumblr, y2k, that girl, avant basics, clown core
Don't like: Barbie Core, Ballet Core, Coastal Grandma, Cottage Core, Reagal Core, Old money, Coquette
Love, love, love that sweater you are wearing!
I didn't know about a lot of these, great video keep it up :) just subbed
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love these ranking videos, but specifically in this video I enjoyed how you touched on what these aesthetics are. I’m found the “history” of the aesthetics really interesting!
love the aesthetic outfits video idea but with stuff in your closet because you will see what you already have and didn't know you had. on a sidenote I am 110% here for the old money aesthetic reminds me of my style which is preppy, country club, golf/tennis wear. I am right there with you *checkered and cow print* my phone case is cow print enough said.
We have such different tastes, but I love hearing you talk about the different looks.
Great video. :) But why does it make me so uncomfortable to look at the chart where the pics aren’t sized and lined up evenly? Just a me issue, I’m sure.
Another fun video.
My style is quite eclectic. A mix of grunge, academia, goth, art ho, etc.
aaaaaa i love youtuber rattus rattus representing the whimsigoth aesthetic!!
I feel the same way about mermaidcore! it looks SO fun and playful and I love seeing it on other people but I just know it isn't for me
Love the cardigan and i really love the clowncore for you!
I personally love your aesthetic deep dive kind of videos and I would love to see your takes on how to achieve different aesthetics, so maybe you could consider borrowing clothes from friends who wear different styles that you do
Yes please DO a balletcore thrifting video - even though I now see you just plunked it into your NO for you/bottom category 🙂
This was such a fun video
I think an awesome video is like the one you suggested: Adding more of an aesthetics in your outfit when your wardrobe is mostly normal and casual (jeans and t shirt etc.) without emptying your bank account with lots of new clothes and accessories and even replacing your whole wardrobe.
For example, I really love and got some items for dark academia (for fall/winter), cottagecore (for spring/summer), and whimsy/witchy (for some evenings), and I would love to try some fairy, royal, art and ballerina details from time to time, but I live in very casual country and with not a lot of extra money to spend on new thing.
Is there a cowgirl/western aesthetic? I feel like with the denim and boots and tiered skirts in your wardrobe, that could be something.
U should do the neutral Amazon girl aesthetic, twee, boho, and otherssss
Hi, i know my "keywords" but I'd like to know which Aesthetics to look at for different inspiration. Do you guys have recommendations where this would fit in: laid back/relaxed sensual (not plain sexy) femininity. Like Esmeralda but with happy colors and flowy skirts
Liking and commenting because I hope someone will help you
@@noahsdragonfruit thanks, that is so nice
Whimsigoth is what comes to mind when I think of Esmeralda! Maybe even cottagecore for her white fluffy sleeve corset top. I could also see piratecore or fairycore / fairy grunge or mermaidcore elements, maybe even a bit of coquette could be part of it?
I actually have my eye in that green house of sunny dress on a thrift website..but it's a bit expensive..but I would love to have it..and I do think very few people I know would know what dress it is.
I’d like to see you thrift, use what you have, up cycle elements from all the aesthetics that you like to create a YOU “aesthetic” or show how these can be inspo to unlock your own personal style 🖤
🌸 Alexa: These rankings are great exercises. 💗Appreciate how you're educating me all about the latest aesthetics, & also sharing how they personally fall for you in favor. 😉You've given me lots of food for thought, & inspired me to order them for myself.
In my head, there are fashion pure bloods & mutts. I'm envious of women who practically knew their KEY AESTHETIC out of the womb👶. Those whose fashion tastes have remained rather consistent & focused throughout their entire life span w/few bumps. Sadly, that's not me.
Athough I have acrued quite a bit of elegant, classic gear after having worked a couple of decades in Corporate America. The modern minimalist in me will always love the simple lines, silhouettes, & structure. There's nothing more pleasing than a matching trouser or skirt suit. Those delicious dark, power neutrals. Outside of the office, I'm finding this all can be a tad too formal, confining, & boring.
Plus, our usual scorching desert 🏜 climate in the SF Valley, combined w/my change of life🥵, dictates a lot of what I can & cannot tolerate. Love blazers, but they're not a year round thing for me. Sometimes it's only possible to wear one when visiting the West Side or inside a temperature controlled bldg. Therefore, I'm having to break up suits into more wearable components.
🏸Sport Lux. There's nothing sweeter than activewear w/moisture💧wicking properties in my book. A breathable cotton mix is positively dreamy for me. Liking the high contrast of corpwear mixed w/down market (i.e., chunk sole loafers or white trainers; a long underwear top, a silky LS runner's top, a razorback tank, a graphic tee, a zippered elevated hoodie, & so on).
🤔Overall, been more of a magpie about aesthetics. Always drawn to fresh & new stimulation. Love variety. Occasion dressing (work, church, concert, date, movie, museum, amusement park, festive, & so on). Today I feel goth or grunge, tomorrow romantic, the next day preppy. My personality has probably always leaned too girlish for my own good, so I try to temper that in style in fear of looking foolish or caricature.
In addition to lux sport. There's also a thread of avant garde, theatricality, & glamour. There's a strong underlying rebellion that deplores being pigeonholed into anything. This has all led to a 💔 fragmented wardrobe😖.
As your elder👩🦳, I can confirm that our style is ever evolving. Coming to know what delights you😁, but you still won't wear🤣 (for any number of reasons) is an important part of the puzzle 🧩.
💚Bridget from Cali☘️
(using my pal's YT acct)
I have A Time with my wardrobe bc one half is art ho/slight weird girl and the other half is goblincore
And lemme tell you the way I GASPED when you mentioned goblincore. Even if it isn't for you it's just so fun to hear someone talk about it.
You showed a lot of skirts, which is very fairy core, but I think goblincore more corduroy and pants. LOOOOOTS of layering with vests and jackets and crazy amount of jewelry/trinkets. I do incorporate some skirts into mine tho. I think a big part of it is how androgynous the aesthetic is (not saying guys can't wear skirts tho ☺️)
Thank you for perceiving my fashion obsession 💕
because you are talking about a broader scale of aesthetics, i wished you would rate them more by how you like the elements and less on if you would wear them, if that makes sense. I have so much love for styles of clothing, like goth and fairy core, even if I wouldn’t wear them in my day-to-day life.
Personally I love balletcore because (as you can probably tell from my username) I am an aspiring dancer who lives and breathes ballet lol. But I totally get why for some people it's not their style!
You could do a video styling all of the aesthetics in your bottom tier and then call it something like "styling aesthetics that are not my style" :)
I loved this, I learned about aesthetics & cores that I’ve never heard of!! So inspiring. Thank you for this video, I would also love to see a part 2 to this video
Your downtown girl video brought me Gilmore girls and I can’t thank you enough lol
You should do a granola girl aesthetic video! I feel like you could make outfits from your closet
Could you share your tier ranking set up at all? 🥺 I'm currently between styles and this would be so helpful for me 💖
I like the coconut girl aesthetic. I woudlnt personally wear it but it gives positives vibes idk
I totally agree about the old money aesthetic - just not for me, even though I mostly wear neutrals and I like some of the elements on their own. I just couldn't wear a whole outfit like that unironically and with all of those logos on show - it just looks boring and over the top to me (not to mention that old money people don't dress like that, but ok).
Can you please make a video on how you shop at threadup? I neverrr find cute pieces:( love youuu
I think a really interesting video would be to look at all the items in your closet and categorize them into aesthetics and see which you have the most of!
I find myself closer to that girl, old money and rarely dark academia for formal activities but I'm mostly that girl. Also if they were avaible in my country I'd like to try mermaidcore, coquette and balletcore too.
I wanna do this tierlist tbh and I basically never want to when i watch them
Please do a ballet core aesthetic video
Have you looked at ‘mori girl’ fashion? It’s a Japanese fashion style that seems to hit a lot of your likes
I would say my (ideal) style would be a mixture of dark academia and goblincore
I wish people would include the grunge side of y2k into their opinions of the 90s, my mom was a huge flannel kid and that was a big part of that era, whereas the girls with money had the bright colored tops n stuff in the later 90s
forest fairy is my fav with goblincore and whimsigoth and i like downtown girl a lot, i really like mallgoth too and i used to be very obsessed with it. i find mermaid core truly amazing too. i love royalcpre too but there's another type of royalcore that i love even more. i like coquette. sorry if my comment is chaotic, i made it while watching the video so... 💀
Just lanchen and dion the Taurus did a collab similar to the video you said styling just one or two outfits per aesthetic you could find someone to do this with and it’s be fun
hii alexa, ilysm!!!!ahhhh first
❤️❤️❤️
goth here, but i love/appreciate every style :)
I'm more if style tomboy, simple core design graphics 😎. Love you and everything u do. Keep up great work 👍. Lot's if love 💘♥..
Do you have a link to the tier list so we can rank said aesthetics?
Hey alexa do you think you could provide a link to the tier ranking itself in case we want to try it?
I just took the normal tier list layout (I google tier list haha) and then used pic monkey to create the titles and add photos so I don’t have a link for it !
I have like two different styles depending on if it’s spring/summer or fall/winter lol. I blend VSCO and cottage core for warm times and like… I dabble in some light academia/old money for cold? But then like all the time I’m inspired by scandi design and fashion so 😂
I think if you put a Flowy top or puffy white top with your green shiny pants, and then do your hair in a braid or something, you would give off mermaid core
The only things I have to say is you got Y2K and parts of mall goth wrong. I don't blame you because the internet (especially tiktok and pinterest) changes the meanings of aesthetics and dismisses the whole point of them for some reason
I went properly into depth on mall goth in my dedicated video on it, but yeah I had weirdly a hard time finding the right photos for both of those and kind of rushed it so they don’t really represent the styles perfectly 😭
hi :) where is your checkboard cardigan from? its so pretty!!
Lisa says gah! I believe it’s sold out though 💔
2019 cultural moments got swept under the rug by the generation defining p4ndemic but maybe that wasn't a bad thing because I just got a twinge of physical pain right now after being reminded that the phrase "vsco girl" existed
Based on the history of this country, the origin of most “old money” and it’s link to the slave trade, free and low immigrant labor I do not particularly like the “old money” aesthetic. I am in the field of education and do however enjoy dark and light “academia” outfits. Since we tend to wear that automatically!! I enjoy your videos.
It’s probably best to know the history behind an aesthetic before diving in. Another example is Art Hoe, which was originally part of POC identity. It’s inclusive, but there’s still issues of whitewashing. The academia aesthetics are definitely rooted in western elite class institutions, though most people dress preppy because they are just comfortable in the style.
following along bc it's fun
S-
cottagecore yessss it's so pretty. it's def one of the biggest influences in my usual styles.
ok honestly egirl is STILL one of my #1 styles it's sooo cute. I was an emo/goth kid and I feel like egirl is just the modern version of that but I LOVE it?? I could 100% wear it forever.
I've never heard of goblincore being the dark version of fairycore but I kinda love it?? omg
mall goth my beloved
This is confusing as hell. Hahahahahaha they are so many that i don't even know even remember their names. But they all have something fun. Except the clow one, like NO THAT SH1T is scary as hell. NOOOOOOOO. I refuse to acknowledge it existence.
I would be curious to hear you expand on how fashion has gone into a downfall. 00:22:15
I tend rock a 1970s-Bianca Jagger-studio 54 mixed with Copenhagen-fashion week-street style mixed with old money- Kennedy-British prep mixed with a Ziggy stardust-80s punk.... core.... is that a thing?
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Too far?
I don’t think that’s “too far” at all. I’m a child of the 80s, and my style has a lot of those references too.
Avant basic is now outdated for some people? I think that in my mind I'm still living in the world when outdated is something that you wear 10 years ago xd It scares me a little how fast fashion change nowadays. On the other hand, maybe aesthetic is something that people won't change every season, like I understand trying different styles, but buying more and more things is not the best thing for the environment. Anyway, I love avant basic, also art hoe and granola, also weird (Grimes style), probably I finally found my aesthetics.
