Old Money Aesthetic Style Guide 2024

Old Money Aesthetic Style Guide 2024

You’ve probably heard the term old money aesthetic, as it’s currently a major trend, and one that I personally love and try to emulate in my own style. So what is old money aesthetic and why am I obsessed?

Old money aesthetic has also been called quiet luxury, which in my opinion is just one part of what embodies the trend. It’s not only about pieces with less brand logos, but it’s also about a timeless and expensive style that symbolizes high society. And of course, well, the aesthetic is also old. Think style icons like Jackie Kennedy and Princess Diana, travel destinations like the Hamptons and Lake Como, and iconic brands such as Ralph Lauren and Hermés.

Even if you can’t afford to dress like an elite, you can still achieve the old money aesthetic style. I’m including designer pieces, as well as more affordable outfit options below.
