Today I’m sharing a huge round-up of Pinterest Trends for August 2024 and ways that you can use the trends to create content and skyrocket your blog this year! These are the top growing trends and yearly trends on Pinterest in August 2024 – for every niche.
My goal for these posts is to help you create content that your audience on Pinterest is already searching for. That way, when you share that content to Pinterest – you reach your ideal audience 10x faster. Ultimately, I want to help you use Pinterest Trends to skyrocket your blog traffic this year.
If you’ve seen a decrease in your Pinterest traffic this year, utilizing trends to create helpful content is one of the best ways to combat this. By creating content for your audience using Pinterest trends, you’re showing Pinterest (and their users) that you know what they need!
I hope you can use this Pinterest roundup to plan your next 4-8 weeks of blog and social media content, based around these Pinterest trends. Use this as a guide to create consistently, because as you probably know by now with any social media account – consistency is key.
I’ve been blogging for over 8 years now and consistency is the ultimate secret to success.
Now, let’s jump into August Pinterest Trends. Plan your August content around the trends emerging on Pinterest this month. Don’t be afraid to use trends from last month as well! You can read all of my past posts below.
Read past posts:
- Pinterest Trends for January 2024
- Pinterest Trends for February 2024
- Pinterest Trends for March 2024
- Pinterest Trends for April 2024
- Pinterest Trends for May 2024
- Pinterest Trends for June 2024
- Pinterest Trends for July 2024
Remember, Pinterest trends tend to start 20% earlier than other platforms and sustain 21% longer. That means it’s OK to use trends from previous months and take inspiration from those trends to apply to things trending now.
How does this Pinterest trends guide work?
The guide is organized by niche and then each bullet point is a trending keyword on Pinterest. So each point is a specific search term that people are looking for on Pinterest.
You can copy and paste the exact phrases and turn them into content on your blog and social media accounts. Think about creating a dedicated blog post about one of these trends and then a Reel or TikTok video that can also be shared on Pinterest.
Whatever you choose to do next, this guide will help you grow your blog and Pinterest! Let’s jump right in, here’s what to post on Pinterest in August 2024.

Let’s create a blogging plan for Pinterest in August.
August Holidays to Celebrate on Pinterest
- 03 August | Watermelon Day
- 04 August | Sister’s Day
- 09 August | Book Lovers Day
- 14 August | Creamsicle Day
- 22 August | Be an Angel Day
- 31 August | Eat Outside Day
Each month across the world (and especially in the US) there are tons of these random, silly holidays. I love including these because they can be a great way to create some quick trending content.
However, for the big holidays coming up, you should be posting content months in advance. For example, August is not too early to share about Halloween. And by September you should be sharing your Christmas content. This goes for seasons as well. August is when you should start sharing your fall content.
Alright, holidays covered, now here are the Pinterest Trends for August 2024.
Fashion Trends on Pinterest
While you’ve been sharing summer up until now, August is when you can start sharing your transitional fall content. Also in fashion, it’s the best time to start sharing about back-to-school outfits and styles. August is when people *start* to think about these things because by the end of the month, the weather will be starting to cool down and the kids will be back to school.
Here’s what I found when looking at ‘women’s fashion’ on Pinterest for August:
- Summer Outfits 2024 (up 10,000%)
- Glamping Outfits (up 4,000%)
- Cute Summer Outfits
- Casual Summer Outfits
- Cool Sunglasses (up 10,000%)
- Girly Summer Outfits (up 10,000%)

- Outfit Ideas for School (up 200%)
- Fall School Outfits
- Hot Halloween Costumes College (up 500%)
- Fall Fits (up 200%)

As you can see, people are still searching for summer fashion – but they’re also starting to search a lot more for fall fashion, back-to-school outfits, and even Halloween costumes. If you’re ready to start sharing fall content – now is the time!
Here’s what I found when looking at ‘men’s fashion’ on Pinterest for August:
- Guys Clothing Styles (up 500%)

- Men’s Outfits (up 200%)
- Cyberpunk Fashion
- Zara Men Outfits
- Street Style Outfits Men

Men’s fashion has been growing as a topic on Pinterest since last year – which is why I include it in our monthly roundups. If you’re typically a female fashion blogger, you could always put together a roundup post that includes men’s fashion to take advantage of that growing demographic on Pinterest.
Food and Drinks Trends
There aren’t any big food holidays in August, so I recommend focusing on fresh summer ingredients and back-to-school recipes. People are already starting to look to fall – and it’s a good time to start posting your recipes about Halloween. I know it feels early, but I cannot stress enough that pinners plan early.
Here’s what I found when looking at ‘food and drink’ on Pinterest for August:
- Easy Halloween Food (up 2,000%)
- Caesar Dressing (up 900%)
- Easy Things to Bake When Bored (up 500%)
- Summer Baked Goods
- Peach Recipes

- Peach Crisp with Fresh Peaches
- Canning Peaches
- Peach Preserves Recipe
- Peach Jam Recipe
- Peach Butter Recipe
- Pre-Made Camping Meals
- Fall Snacks
- Fall Drinks
- Easy Zucchini Recipes
- School Lunch Ideas
Peaches are all over Pinterest right now – but as I mentioned we are starting to see more of an increase for back-to-school recipes and fall food. It’s still important to incorporate fresh summer ingredients, but August is a good time to incorporate some fall flavors.
August 2024 Beauty Trends
In the past, I’ve found the beauty trends on Pinterest to be dominated by nails – and while we’re still seeing nails everywhere, we’re also seeing a few other things like more hair and makeup! This is really exciting because it means you’ll have even more content that you can share on Pinterest. Here’s what the beauty girlies are searching for on Pinterest right now.
Here’s what I found when looking at ‘beauty’ on Pinterest for August:
- Cute Summer Nails 2024 Simple (up 10,000%)

Home Decor Trends on Pinterest
Home decor is a huge niche on Pinterest. I have a client in this space and she gets over 10,000 outbound link clicks from Pinterest alone! On her account, we’re always jumping on fun home and decor trends and sharing reviews of the top-performing paint colors. Keep in mind that there are so many creative ways that you can use these keywords.
Here’s what I found when looking at ‘home decor’ on Pinterest for August:

In the summer we usually see so much outdoor remodeling but this August people have turned indoors. We’re seeing ‘cozy’ spaces all over Pinterest and I predict that’s only going to grow as we move into fall.

Travel Trends on Pinterest
I am a Pinterest marketer… but I’m also a travel blogger at heart! So it always brings me so much joy to share the top trending destinations with you. While ‘travel’ on Pinterest used to be dominated by packing guides – we’re seeing so many destinations popping up now.
Here’s what I found when looking at ‘travel’ on Pinterest for August:
- Summer 2024 Travel Bucket List (up 10,000%)
- One Day in Paris (up 8,500%)
- Travel Inspo (up 4,000%)

- Ashville North Carolina
- Banff Canada
- Banff Aesthetic
- Lake Tahoe
- Maine Aesthetic
- Kennebunkport Maine
- Ouray Colorado
There are definitely a lot of destinations around the US trending right now. I think we’ve seen an end to the summer in Europe inspiration and people are instead exploring how they can travel closer to home.
I also noticed that two keywords were already growing for Christmas in New York. Remember, people plan their travel 3-12 months in advance so if there are any winter destinations or Christmas-themed trips you want to share, it’s not too early!
