6 Beachy Products to Live Your Peak Coconut Girl Life

2023 has been the year of food-defined aesthetics. Just last month, we had Blueberry Milk Nails skyrocket in popularity, and last week, Hailey Bieber declared this season a Strawberry Girl Summer. 

Up next is the Coconut Girl. This aesthetic is inspired by the beachy, surf aesthetic of the early 2000s—think H2O: Just Add Water meets Lisa Frank. You'll see minimal makeup, tropical scents and colorful floral patterns on clothing. To make the most out of Coconut Girl aesthetics through the end of the summer (though we think this trend can work all year long), find six essential items to recreate the look.

Caress Body Wash Aloe Vera & White Poppy: $5.37

Aloe vera screams island to us, and the white poppy only increases the vibes. Besides having a great scent, this body wash does a stellar job of making your skin feel moisturized. Many fragranced soaps tend to dry out our skin, but we never had a problem with Caress, leaving  every Coconut Girl super hydrated.

To give you that dewy, hydrated look, we recommend using cream products for makeup, especially with blush. This makeup item is a necessity for the Coconut Girl look because it gives you that sunkissed glow without the potential sun damage. This new, vibrant shade from Tower 28 magnificent BeachPlease collection is our ultimate pink dream.

Pura Vida Puka Shell Choker: $28

Every few years, it seems like puka shell necklaces make an appearance. We thought they were officially gone with the VSCO girl trend in 2019, but the Coconut Girl aesthetic will give it a resurgence. It just makes sense for a beach lover to wear this island delicacy, so if you want to make it obvious that you're converting to full Coconut Girl status, pick up this choker necklace from Pura Vida.

The Pleasing Bag in Black: $55

We never took Harry Styles as a beach guy, but this bag from his Pleasing brand tells us otherwise. After seeing Harry wear this around California, we realize this bag must become a staple for every beach trip. It's super spacious and the net design will keep sand from piling in your bag. And, of course, Harry, being the awesome philanthropist he is, made this bag even better by using sustainable materials.

Unfortunately, the bag is sold out right now, but the brand does frequent restocks. Stay on the lookout!

Blackbough Swim Spritz Quinn Triangle Top and String Tease Bottoms: $60 and $55

No Coconut Girl would be complete without her swimsuit. We are obsessed with the cut of this bikini from Blackbough Swim, and the design screams Coconut Girl. It's got the neon colors, the tropical flowers—what a dream. And as faithful users of Blackbough's products, we can tell you honestly they have the most well-made swimwear on the market.

Princess Polly Donnelli Mini Dress Pink Floral: $64

This mini dress from Princess Polly reminds us of a swimsuit cover-up, which is amazing for the beach-dwelling lifestyle of a Coconut Girl. The Donelli dress is made with polyester and elastane, so it's stretchy and comfortable. Plus, this pink and red floral pattern is pretty much the epitome of a Coconut Girl.
