Kurish is currently working full-time and says she was often taught she needed to hustle and strive for career success when she was growing up. Richie’s favorite workout, Pilates, has even become a key part of the soft-girl aesthetic, with many declaring it a cornerstone of the lifestyle.

In it, she explains how, although she initially worked in “hustle culture” in the tech industry after college, she then moved across the world after meeting her husband, a move she describes to me as “choosing love over career. A soft life doesn't mean not working or just giving up on accomplishing things; for me it's about reprioritizing your life and your work around your own peace, contentment, and fulfillment wherever possible. Darke tells me that, while she does face criticism for her beliefs, she has observed other women her age beginning to “embrace traditional gender roles,” as she puts it.

Big tech is in chaos, and many people have been rewarded for their years of grinding by being unceremoniously laid off.

For this reason the patron saint of the soft girl may be Sofia Richie Grainge, who at 25 has a loving husband, a beautiful home, an exquisite wardrobe, and, it seems, plenty of free time to focus on self-care and homemaking. These have the same sweet scent, too, so keep that in mind if you’re like me and don’t love overly sweet smells.These days I’m not walking around Bushwick cosplaying Bella Hadid or Iris Law or Ella Emhoff—and especially not like a certain character from The White Lotus. com, the Sell on Etsy app, and the Etsy app, as well as the electricity that powers Etsy’s global offices and employees working remotely from home in the US. The Kitty Kisses lip balm is great for layering underneath anything else you’ve got on your lips for the SPF protection and added moisture. That said, up-and-coming designers and indie labels like Collina Strada, Chopova Lowena, Vaquera, Ottolinger, Paloma Wool, Maryam Nassir Zadeh, Lucky Jewel, and Eckhaus Latta also cater to the weird girl contingent with their off-kilter, easily layered pieces. The next generation of women have watched all of this unfold, observed our burnout and our late nights, our stress fractures and our egg freezing, and said, No thanks.

Try applying with a damp brush for more of a foiled look on the lid, or just on its own for a subtle, bronzy gold shimmer.

To them, the pursuit of what is known as “hustle culture” is not just toxic and potentially harmful to their health—it actively goes against what it means to be a woman. I don’t want to be a girlboss, I don’t want to hustle, I simply want to live my life slowly and lay in a bed of moss with my lover and enjoy the rest of my existence, reading books and creating art and loving the people in my life,” she said.My own love affair with the weird girl aesthetic began months before that post, when TikTok realized I had at least a minor interest in fashion and began serving me videos from creators like Rian Phin, Clara Perlmutter, Kristen Bateman, Shuang Bright, and Mandy Lee, who all embody weird girl style in one way or another. I definitely have days where if I'm really not feeling it, I won't push myself too hard or make any major decisions. The main draw of the weird girl aesthetic, at least for me, is that it flips the conventions of other trends.

I continued to observe the habits of Europeans while on that trip and my biggest takeaway was how incredibly healthy and inspiring their work-life balance was,” she says. But is this movement a defiant act of self-actualization or a backward slide into patriarchal norms?

Thus the rise of the soft girl may not be just a rejection of the girlboss but also a reaction to the difficulty of living under late-stage capitalism, something that people of every generation are starting to chafe against. After collecting these mental notes (and folders’ worth of TikTok videos), it finally dawned on me that I might be happy getting a little weirder with my closet.
