Are your timelines and feeds awash with the color lime green, pixelated lowercase text, and Y2K-inspired black and chrome looks? Because mine are, and I couldn’t love it more: This latest internet phenomenon is in reference to pop icon Charli XCX’s latest album, Brat, which dropped early last month. Some have declared it “Brat Summer,” but I don’t think I’ll be ready to give up the Brat Summer vibes when the season starts to change. I also don’t think I’ll have to.

Charli’s inimitable Brat aesthetic has already transcended music, reaching into the realms of fashion, beauty, and even baking — and now design as well. We rounded up seven home products that are just “so Julia,” to help you stay Brat through the rest of summer and all the way to your dorm room this year.

Decorative Pillow
Artscope Silver Throw Pillow Covers Cases
$10

Brat Girl bedding? “You’re obsessing, just confess it.” This faux-alligator silver accent pillow will add a pop of texture and a bit of edge to any bed, plus a touch of Y2K.

$10 at Amazon
Shower Curtain
Quiet Town Sun Shower Curtain
$42

This product is on the expensive side of this list, but I just couldn’t resist. Team up with your suitemates and go in on this shower curtain from Quiet Town, and you won’t regret it. Brat Girl bathroom, anyone?

$42 at West Elm
Bath Hooks
Butterfly Adhesive Bath Hook
$6

This adorable little lime green bratty butterfly practically screams, “When you’re in the mirror you’re just looking at me…”

$6 at Urban Outfitters
Disco String Lights
LED Disco Ball Decorations
$12

These disco ball string lights are a fun and funky twist on classic dorm decor. And with so many colors to choose from, the good vibes are guaranteed no matter your style.

$12 at Amazon
Jellycat Plush
Ricky Rain Frog Bag Charm
$23

IMO, something about this little Jellycat just screams Brat. His green shade is notably a perfect match to Charli’s album cover … and his cute little pouty face is giving a bratty vibe for sure. Ricky Rain Frog will have you “looking like an icon” around campus. (And good luck losing your keys with this guy at your side!)

$23 at Jellycat
Disposable Camera
Fujifilm QuickSnap Flash 400 One-Time-Use Camera - 2 Pack
$38$26

You obviously want to capture a lot of memories of college on camera. Go retro with a disposable cam for your next night with friends. “Put the camera flash on” and “work angles” for these little green cuties!

$26 at Amazon
Frames
PÄRLHAGTORN Frame
$7

Once you get those pics developed, you’ll need somewhere to put them, right? These frames from IKEA, with a wavy silhouette and chrome finish, are so on trend. And the $6.99 price point doesn’t hurt either.

$7 at IKEA
