VSCO girls . Help me understand

[Anonymous]

I’ve been hearing a lot about this from my sixth grader. Can someone help me understand? I understand fashion and wanting to fit in but this really sounds like a uniform

[Anonymous]

I think it's more of a look that includes oversized t-shirts, scrunchies, a hydroflask, and various other things. It could be a worse, so I'm letting my 6th grader run on this one.

Ha! My HS freshman is all about making fun of VSCO girls. I think it’s a harmless trend. I wouldn’t worry.

Oh jeez, as a high school teacher this is literally all I hear about right now. It’s just a label for a stereotypical style and set of behaviors right now. VSCO girls:

Have long hair
Wear big baggy T-shirts over Nike shorts you can’t see
Birks or crocs or vans slip ons
Tons of wrist scrunchies
Always carry a hydroflask (omg parents, I HATE THESE)
Use sksksksksksk when they type to mean they’re laughing
Now they’re actually saying it in real life along with and I oop
Use metal straws and say save the turtles

It’s essentially a girl who is “basic”

My daughter has made negative comments about these girls, pointing them out to be at the mall. It made me cringe to hear her refer to some as “ basic”. We had a long talk about it. Hate the labeling and demeaning of any group.

My daughter likes to make fun of these girls and I have to remind her to be kind to everyone. She’s thinks it’s okay to laugh because it’s a popular trend. Not true.

"VSCO girls" is a harmless trend but it sounds like your daughter could use a lesson in kindness.

Ack, sorry, even if she wasn't that was an awful assumption that I made!

They rattle and the kids constantly drop them or knock them over and because they’re hollow heavy metal they sound like a freaking bomb going off. SO distracting and it happens minimum 4/5 times per class.

Glad you asked this OP. I've been hearing about it from my 8th grade daughter as well and didn't know if it was really a widespread thing, or just something that is a subculture at her school.

I've heard the same thing. I fail to see how drinking out of a hydroflask can be the marker of a social group. And I'm wearing an oversized t-shirt right now. Maybe I'm a VSCO girl and didn't know it?
