The Grocery Girl Fall Trend Is Just An Excuse To Fill Your Home With Food Decor

This summer was tomato girl summer. She sported a retro-type of beauty, embodied the aesthetic of the Mediterranean coast, and looked like the main character out of a summery romance novel — all with an air of laid-back effortlessness. But as the leaves begin to turn orange and crisp and we start taking out our Rory Gilmore chunky cable-knit sweaters, we must say goodbye to tomato girl summer. Instead, TikTok brings us grocery girl fall.

Another hyper-specific aesthetic brought to us by TikTok, the grocery girl fall aesthetic is shaping our homes and our wardrobes. Fresh, quirky, and whimsical, grocery girl fall introduces food-resembling and food-inspired pieces into our home decor and fashion. A similar idea to mushroom houses or Luna Lovegood’s radish earrings, the trend has an undeniably cute and kitschy vibe to it, but it can also be reimagined possessing a high-brow quality. The grocery girl fall aesthetic is a versatile and fun trend that can bring some pizza(zz) to your home and wardrobe spaces.

With its delicious deep red hue and curvilinear form, the heirloom tomato also resembles fine art in the shape of a candle. The candles are hand-poured, molded off real heirloom tomatoes, and smells of tomato leaves.

2. Strawberry Flower Vase

Sweet, adorable, and reminiscent of cottagecore’s cuter younger sister, the strawberry vase is a silly and lovely way to show off your plants. Imagine some leafy green plants to complete the entire strawberry look for the vase, or maybe some bright blooms for a delicious floral centerpiece.

3. Cherry Toilet Bowl Brush

It’s always fun to add a layer of quirkiness to a mundane, practical item, and that’s exactly what turning your toilet bowl brush into a cherry is doing. The holder bowl is shaped like a cherry while the toilet brush itself has red bristles and a green handle, making up parts of the cherry. Maybe this will be some motivation for doing bathroom chores.

4. Chili Pepper Teapot
