Girl core style is all the rage this year. I just love being a girly girl… And I’m glad the fashion style has caught up to my favorite look.
The overly girly girl style is more than just wearing pink and bows, it’s about embracing our true femininity in style, and not just because it’s what we are “supposed” to like.
If you grew out of your ballet flats and bows earlier than you wish, you’re in luck with this new trending style.
The ballet core girls introduced us to this not too long ago, and now everyone is snatching their ballet flats back and the light and airy style that we love to associate with girl core.
Want to check out the ballet core style that started it all? Here are beautiful ballet core outfits to get you inspired.

Core Girl Style Pieces
What are some core girl style pieces you should snag if you’re getting into this whole look as your main style? There are a couple things that are no brainers.
I would invest in:
-
- Bows. Bows everywhere. It’s been an oversaturated trend which means it will probably be dropping in popularity soon, but if this is your new style, it’s here to stay!
- Ballet flats. Just like in the 2000’s, these shoes are going to be your new go-to’s. Throw them on with everything!
- Pastel shades. Tops, skirts, dresses… I would get everything you can in light and pastel colors.
Pairing these with just about anything is really going to give you that sweetness, that girly style that you’re loving right now!
What Is Girl Core Style?
There are a lot of explanations for girl core style, but in short, it’s the classic style that we would label “girly girl” while we were growing up.
There are a few different aesthetics that are similar to and inspire girl core style, that you might be more familiar with and might give you a better idea.
- Soft girl
- Ballet core
- Coquette style
You’ve probably noted all of the bows everywhere on everything, and these are just different outfit ideas that can help you thread that style throughout all of your outfits and looks.
The tricky part about getting invested in a new trend or style is figuring out how to make all of your looks cohesive.
Wearing bows with everything can be cute, but if you change your style to be girly and coquette throughout the whole look, it takes your style to the next level.
I hope these outfit ideas gave you all of the inspiration you need!
