8 Trends from Your Childhood That Are Back In Style

Where are all the ‘90s babies at? Fashion trends from the ‘90s and early 2000s are being seen all over the place right now. Icons like the Kardashian-Jenner family, Hadid sisters and models alike are all sporting their childhood looks. This isn’t just a celebrity trend though! You can rock your favorite TBT looks too and here are eight ways to do it.

1. Chokers

Chokers are the perfect accessory to any outfit! They can be minimal or bold, colorful or dark, delicate or chunky and that’s what makes them the best addition. It’s no wonder this is on the comeback train.

2. Denim on denim

How adorable is young Drew Barrymore? She rocked the Canadian tuxedo in 1992 and 23 years later, in 2015, Rihanna wore a similar version. Denim on denim is definitely coming full circle and looks adorable with a simple white tank underneath!

3. Slip dresses

Slip dresses were everywhere in the ‘90s. They could be velvet, silk, or even lace and came in literally every color. They’re back and perfect for any fancy occasion.

Another version of the slip dress is the slip dress over the t-shirt.

Oh, Rachel Green. If she isn’t classic ‘90s inspiration, who is? This is the casual take on the slip dress. You could definitely wear this to class, brunch, or dinner with friends!

4. Tommy Hilfiger

Tommy girls are infamous and thanks to Urban Outfitters and Gigi Hadid, we can reveal our own inner Tommy girl. This is the best of the best to come back from the ‘90s.

5. Adidas

Adidas was big in the ‘90s hip-hop culture and has come back to rule the fashionable sportswear industry. Not only will you see the classic Adidas Superstar or Gazelle shoes, like Kate Moss is wearing, but you’ll see tracksuits, like Rita Ora’s, and Stan Smiths in a ton of different colors. These are casual outfits — the definition of athleisure. Adidas isn’t just for training and hip-hop anymore.

6. The Clueless look

Cher Horowitz’s classic yellow plaid look doesn’t have to be only a Halloween outfit now! Bella Hadid modernized this ‘90s look with her own twist and it’s so chic — perfect for any summer event.

7. Mom jeans

Here’s Bella again serving up a super sweet ‘90s look, the high waist mom jean! From Tyra to Bella, this look is very hipster-boho.

8. Jean vests

Shania Twain and Selena Gomez are both stunning singers so it makes sense they both have an awesome sense of style. Pair a jean vest with a crop top and mom jeans and you have yourself a double denim look too! Total ‘90s outfit.

Style trends come and go and fashion is constantly being recycled. Thankfully, these ‘90s trends are fun and doable with today’s trends! Which look will you wear first?
