Songs You Should Hear According to Your Aesthetic

Don't ask me why, but I love pairing songs with photographs--and it's even better when I find a group of songs with similar vibes. As I was making playlists, I started thinking that everyone has their own aesthetic that influences the movies they watch, the clothes they wear, the art they create, the posts they share on social media and more. If you're confident about your personal aesthetic, here's a rundown of songs that might interest you.
