How to nail the coastal grandma look
If you like your colour palette neutral, materials natural, and you thrill at the sight of a chunky throw blanket paired with a crisp glass of wine, you might just be a coastal grandma. The viral TikTok trend is making waves around the world—and no, you don’t actually need to be a grandma to be a 'coastal grandma.'
What is a coastal grandma?
With her affinity for cashmere turtleneck sweaters and linen bucket hats, Diane Keaton’s character in the Nancy Meyers film Something’s Gotta Give has been hailed the ultimate coastal grandma. Though, as Lex Nicoleta, who coined the term, notes, coastal grandma is more than a look; it's a lifestyle. “If you love Nancy Meyers movies, coastal vibes, recipes and cooking, Ina Garten, cosy interiors, and more, there is a good chance you might be a coastal grandmother,” she explains in a TikTok video with over 2.3 million views.What is a coastal grandma style?
The coastal grandma interior aesthetic taps into classic Hamptons style but injects an extra dose of cosiness into the home. A soft, neutral palette and blue accents are key to the coastal grandma look, but the nautical notes and literal coastal references heroed in Hamptons homes have been replaced by knitted throws and slipcover sofas, generous floor rugs, natural rattan weaves and snuggly cushions. Coastal grandma-inspired homes also feature an inviting mix of old and new decor, including personal treasures collected over the years. Think of it as the perfect balance of pared-back luxury and homely warmth.Shop the coastal grandma look
