A quick scroll through your TikTok feed and there’s a high chance you’ll stumble across someone who’s gone full coastal grandmother. The viral term, coined by TikToker Lex Nicoleta, describes the coastal grandmother aesthetic as, “If you love Nancy Meyers movies, coastal vibes, recipes and cooking, Ina Garten, cozy interiors, and more, there’s a good chance you might be a coastal grandmother.” The sartorial result? A neutral lover’s paradise.

From classic wardrobe pieces like cashmere turtlenecks Erica Barry (Diane Keaton) would’ve sported in Something’s Gotta Give to the breezy linen numbers Jane Adler (Meryl Streep) paraded around in It’s Complicated, the coastal grandmother aesthetic is simplicity as its best. But, of course, achieving such chic-yet-laidback style is no easy feat, so to help you embrace your inner coastal grandmother, we’ve scoured the depths of Amazon to bring you one step closer to mastering yet another viral TikTok trend. Ahead, shop our 20 favorite coastal grandmother-inspired finds from Amazon.
