The Best VSCO Girl Gear

We love the VSCO girl look. VSCO girls have a vibe all their own, and, though it's definitely a casual look, there are several essential parts to this aesthetic that you'll need to nail. Aside from their enthusiasm for social media (Instagram and Tiktok, not Facebook or Twitter), VSCO girls love pairing their oversized t-shirts with Birkenstocks, staying hydrated with a Hydro Flask, wearing scrunchies in their hair, and snapping pics on their instant cameras. So, are you ready to get your VSCO girl look on? Our list is a great place to start your search.
