Today on Prada & Pearls I’m sharing 50+ gorgeous light academia wallpaper aesthetics for your phone! All of these wallpapers are completely free to use and would look amazing as your background!
What is Light Academia?
Light academia focuses on the light side of the academia aesthetic. It’s based around education, writing, poetry, art and pulls a lot of inspiration from a light, airy and clean aesthetic. It typically relates to images of white stone architecture, light coloured books, flowers, gold decor and encourages practicing academia outside in nature.
I personally love light academia, it’s such a pretty aesthetic. It’s a great trend for spring and summer. When warmer weather is here, you can pull out all the whites, creams and pastel colors. It’s a really an uplifting aesthetic that has a calming aspect to it.
Light Academia vs Dark Academia
Dark academia focuses on education, writing, poetry like light academia however it pulls a lot of inspiration from the more dark, moody and gothic aesthetic. It typically relates to images of gothic architecture, old books, dark nature and older buildings.
Dark academia is easier to pull off in the cooler months (fall & winter) where you can cozy up inside. Light academia is better for the warmer months when you can read and study outside.

Goblincore is an aesthetic that has gained a lot of popularity over the last couple of years. The whole trend is technically based on goblins and goblin culture. Meaning, it aims to appreciate nature, specifically the aspects that aren’t traditionally considered beautiful. Think lumpy mushrooms, moss, earth, toads and more.

Pro Tip: Download more than one wallpaper at a time to make sure it fits on your phone. Every phone is a different style and size and sometimes the wallpapers won’t work out as your background. If you download multiple at once, it’s easier to find the perfect one!
