This cracks me up bc it’s in essence the way I view coastal towns in NorCal- not SoCal- which is funny bc the TT creator claimed Venice Beach as the OG inspo— which I suppose tracks, bc Venice is as close as you can get to NorCal down here. I would equate it more to the Santa Cruz / Carmel vibe but whatever the geography, it’s very fun and also gives me some fishermancore vibes!!

Not super sheer I had a nude bralette on with it and was great, I did size down one size.

It’s Coastal Grandma who used to live in the city and maybe dated Bill Evans. Works for me!

Here for it. Kind of a merging of Coastal Grandma and Chic Desert Aunt.
