And now, there is a new summer aesthetic coming to the Dolphin Girl Aesthetic. It is playful Y2K nostalgia and casual coast dressing, as Byrdie refers to it, and we have seen Kendall Jenner and Addison Rae in it.
Picture some airy halter tops, Bermuda shorts, salty water, and the recognizable puka shell necklace. It is laid back, beachy, and playfully sexy in all the right ways, a must-have with beach-hopping in Miami, sitting by the pool in LA, or chasing sunsets in Lisbon.
Are you up to being a Dolphin Girl? This is the precise way in which you can master the trend and the must-get items to shop now.
The Dolphin Girl Aesthetic: Why It Is So Good
Partly retro and yet brand new, this style is very much the free summer spirit we all miss the most, imagine early 2000s surf film (and TikTok of coastal waves). Real enough to wear to the beach (though it is not a swimsuit, so please do not take it to the beach), but it is adorable enough to wear out to brunch or what-have-you in the afternoon/evening.
These are 5 Dolphin Girl Summer Essentials
1. Halter Neck-Tops
The classic Dolphin Girl top. Choose pastel colors, crochet fabrics, or glittery swimsuit-like fabric. Bermuda shorts or layered skirts finish them.
2. Bermuda Shorts
Shorter shorts are a thing of the past; they have been replaced by longer shorts, which Dolphin Girls like. You can wear a light pair of jeans or linen, which is loose around the waist, with a halter or tank. Best used in the skate park or on the beach bike riding.
3. Puka Shell Necklace
There is no more coastal Y2K than there are puka shells. Yours can be layered with small gold chains or worn alone to get that real retro look.
4. Beachy Hair and Glowy Skin
The beauty style is easy: disheveled curls, natural freckles, and bronzed cheeks. Apply a sea salt spray on the texture and finish using tinted lip balm.
5. Sporty flip flops or flops
Make it simple on the footwear, rubber slides, sporty sandals, or flip-flops would be your best companions. Ideal to take off when you put your feet in the surf.
