In March, Nicoleta defined a coastal grandma trend in aviral TikTok video.
“What is a coastal grandmother you ask?” Nicoleta says in the clip. “It’s a term that I coined for this aesthetic, if you love Nancy Meyers movies, coastal vibes, recipes and cooking, Ina Garten, interiors and more, there is a good chance you might be a ‘coastal grandmother.'”
“And no, you don’t have to be a grandmother to be a ‘coastal grandmother,'” she added. “It’s for anyone and everyone.”
Nicoleta further explainedthe trendin an interview onGood Morning Americain April.
“I was always drawn to this lifestyle you see in a Nancy Myers movie or when you’re visiting a relative that lives at the beach there is just this sense of coziness and safety that comes along with it,” she shared.
“It’s really just focusing on romanticizing your life and cultivating little moments of happiness — reading on your patio or cooking in your kitchen or making your morning coffee,” she continued. “It’s really in the details.”

PEOPLE’s Style and Beauty Director Andrea Lavinthal also revealed why some may be drawn to the “coastal grandmother” trend during theGood Morning Americasegment.
“First and foremost, coming out of the pandemic, we want something that is comfortable,” she shared. “Fashion that is still comfortable but looks elevated, right. It looks a little more sophisticated, a little more lux.”
Lavinthal added that breezy white button downs, cashmere sweaters, and wide brimmed hats can help achieve the “coastal grandmother” look.
