girly girl
Pink-loving young lady
A girly girl embraces traditionally feminine interests and aesthetics—pink, makeup, fashion, romance.
The term can be affectionate or mildly dismissive depending on context: She's such a girly girl, always in heels and lipstick.
It often contrasts with tomboy, implying someone who doesn't shy away from stereotypically "girly" things.
