What is an "Aesthetic"?
An aesthetic (or "vibe") is a coherent visual world and lifestyle:
how you dress, how you decorate your space, the music you listen to, the mood you
look for day to day. Popularized on Pinterest and TikTok, trends like
Dark Academia, Cottagecore, or Clean Girl help put words —
and colors — to a personality. VibeCheck helps you figure out which one fits you
best in about a minute.
