VSCO

VSCO is a family of aesthetics named in reference to a photography app called VSCO (formerly known as VSCO Cam), created by Joel Flory and Greg Lutze in 2011. VSCO gained prominence with its in-app suite of features that allow users to edit with preset filters and tools. Since its rise in popularity, the VSCO aesthetics have rolled over into other platforms.
== VSCO Girl ==
VSCO Girl is a term originating in Summer, 2019, based on the photography app VSCO. Although the subculture itself did not originate from the app, the two are related somewhat. VSCO girls often use the phrases "and I oop" and/or "sksksksk" and are often compared to E-Girl (though aesthetically speaking, the two are opposites). The fashion is described as preppy but laid-back. They're also associated with Hydroflasks (a type of reusable water bottle), Polaroid cameras, TikTok, and the "save the turtles" movement.
===Fashion===
VSCO Girl style consists of scrunchies, Fjällräven Kånken backpacks, oversized shirts, Nike shorts, and the often judged combination of sandals and socks. Then again, individuals associated with this style also frequently wear Vans, Crocs, and Birks. They seem to be stereotyped, with people imitating them on the app TikTok. Common phrases they have are 'save the turtles', 'and I oop', the phrase popularized by drag queen and RuPaul's Drag Race contestant, Jasmine Masters, and 'sksksksk'.
They are also known to have a Hydroflask, and also have a Jeep. Additionally, they also own shell necklaces and will sometimes wear a tube top and jean shorts along with some friendship jewelry.
