Indie Kid

Some of my fave aesthetics from our cousin site, CARI(Consumer Aesthetics Research Institute)

I have more favorites if anyone’s interested, but I decided to cover just these

#1: Soft Countriana

Did you guys know that the first instance of Cottagecore goes back to the 1980s?

It originated as a conservative interior aesthetic, but regardless of political context I like the look of it, it’s like Cottagecore, Dollette, and Babycore mashed together.

#2 Preschool Pop

This one has likely been co opted a bit with Kidcore, but it originated in the 90s and has a bit more of an artsy feel to it.

Been debating adding this one to the Wiki

#3: Groovival

Mistakengly referred to as the “70s aesthetic”, this is the 90s interpretation of the Hippie look, it’s also referred to as Y2K hippie

The colors and symbols remind me of Indie Kid

What are your thoughts?

I made this collage of all of my favorite aesthetics and I don't know if I should combine these into one. If I do what should I call it?

PSA: I also simp for Aizawa :')

Since Valentine’s Day is tomorrow, I’ll share these

Top: Lovecore x Indie kid

Bottom: Tweencore x Lovecore

Btw, be sure to gimme more ideas, tho I can only take 1 idea per person sadly

For @Mariiiakene , hope this is right

Also, give me names for a random aesthetic or for aesthetics y’all come up with, but I may not do them right away

So, my aesthetic is indie kid. But i love reading too. Is there any aesthetics that love reading? And can i mix it with indie kid ?

Thanks for helping👋💛

I thought i was like grunge or indie kid but i srrsly dont know

Heres a moodboard of pics from pinterest that fit whatever my aesthetic is. also imagine a lot of accessories on top of the grunge outfit pls help!1! tysm

Heyo! So, my wardrobe is pretty limited. I tore up a lot of shirts and wear those (usually attempting the 'punk' look). I only ever wear skinny jeans and doc martens, and my shirts tend to be pretty revealing. I'm wanting to change my style up a little bit. I really like indie kid, grunge and light academia, but Idk where to start. I can thrift a bunch of clothes easily and stuff. I'm really leaning towards 80's/90's indie for clothing style atm. Any advice on how to do that without having to spend a lot of monz (a.k.a. money)?

What even are the key differences? It seems like to me that Indie is supposed to be darker, but it's just transitioning to Indie Kid?

Also, I've been struggling to find much clothing and stationary that's bright and colourful, so that's why I've come to look at Indie. It's quite difficult to find it in Australia. Any store suggestions?
