The messy girl is far from TikTok’s clean girl. She’s disheveled,her hair is often tousled, her clothes are imperfectly perfect, her room just might be a disaster. She’s the anti-consumerist, anti-materialist, societal-standard-rejecting cool girl. The one who treats fast fashion trends like background noise and finds beauty in the unpolished and just being.
The messy girl is no modern fad–her spirit lied in the 1920s, the 1970s hippies, and the gritty indie sleaze kids of the late 2000s and early 2010s. Think girls like Chloë Sevigny, the iconic Olsen twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, and the unforgettable Helena Bonham Carter.
The messy girl marches to the beat of her own drum–and it’s irresistible. The question is…are you one of them? Take the messy girl quiz below to find out.
