You know the "Coastal Grandma" aesthetic that's been popular for the last few years: the Nancy Meyers-inspired, blue-and-white, preppy look that's all button-ups, linen and cardigans. But we're here to tell you that Coastal Grandma is out and there's a new look to replace it in 2024: "Eclectic Grandpa." It takes some of the elements we love about Coastal Grandma fashion — slouchy, comfy casual pieces — and gives them a bit of a twist.
Eclectic Grandpa trades in the linen, cream and pastels for corduroy, tweed and tartan — but it still embraces classic lines and old-school brands and silhouettes. As an added bonus, most eclectic grandpa staples will go with anything, so you can mix and match.
