Thanks to the rise of eco-conscious VSCO girls, I can't even look at a plastic straw without feeling pangs of guilt for those poor sea turtles. And though Twitter is packed with memes making fun of the trend, VSCO girls are actively creating a cleaner ocean by popularizing no-waste products. A staple in the starter pack – along with stainless steel straws and Starbucks tumblers – is the candy-bright Hydro Flask water bottle.
Any brand of reusable bottle will help bring down your plastic footprint, but if you're trying to shop like a bonafide VSCO girl, Hydro Flask is the only way to go.
These beloved bottles are fully functional and work like a good piece of statement jewelry, bringing breezy Cali vibes to any outfit. Just take a quick scroll through the Popular page on Insta to see what I mean.
If you want to deck out your bottle like a true VSCO girl, customization is key. Add scrunchies, keychains, friendship bracelets, and graphic stickers to make it feel 100% you. Hijack your mom's Prime account to shop tons of different sticker styles – they've got stick-ons inspired by everything from memes to The Office, you can even buy the VSCO girl starter pack in sticker form (so meta).

Yes, these bottles are peak Insta bait, but they're super functional too. Each vibrant canteen is double-lined with a layer of stainless steel, encased in a coating of candy-colored insulation. Hydro Flask promises your icy beverage will stay that way for a full day and your morning coffee will become an afternoon pick-me-up if you need it to, with heat-preserving six-hour temperature control.
