Only a true TikTok ‘that girl’ has at least 47/53 of these items
That girls can’t live without their Alo leggings and gratitude journals
The “that girl” TikTok is probably the most enduring aesthetic on the app. It’s been around for almost a year and yet our FYPs are still full tanned toned girls drinking green juices, ice rolling their faces and getting up at 5am to do pilates. It’s practically a religion at this point. There’s nearly 3 billion views for the “that girl” hashtag with one of the additional hashtags being “that girl essentials”.
Sure being a that girl is a state of mind, but of course it’s something you can buy into too. Skincare, workout clothes and just about everything acrylic for your home – straws, cups and laptop stands – they all must be acrylic. The ultra that girls are creating Amazon lists for aspiring followers to get the “that girl” look too. Because who wouldn’t want to get out of bed and drink warm water with lemon every morning, before completing their gratitude journal?
So if you consider yourself to be a certified ‘that girl’ then these are all the essentials you should have, otherwise you get kicked out of the yoga class:
