90's Fashion Revival

I’m really loving this 90’s fashion comeback! I always felt that the 90’s (especially early 90’s) was the worst fashion decade and dreaded its comeback. I wondered what on earth would be revived- slouch socks? Pants pegging? Scrunchies? Slap bands?! Maybe that’s just because when I look back at 90’s pictures of myself I’m wearing baggy jeans and t-shirts with Looney Tunes characters on them, with extra thick eyebrows! Fortunately my hair was too thin for all the teasing and big hair trends, but I was surely seen rocking a bandanna wrapped around my bun! I digress…

  

But excitingly enough, its the small 90’s elements that have made their way back on trend, and mix in perfectly with modern twists.  I’m loving the suede booties. The bright colors- fuschia, purple, royal. The spandex/bandage minis. Thin boxy blazers. Colored denim. Oversized sweaters with skirts and booties. Sweetheart necklines even! Anyone remember the grunge, Nirvana Doc Martin trend? The style is back, only now in the form of vintage, soft worn lace up boots to pair with high socks or tights and a floral flowy dress. Remember Kelly Bundy’s second skin body dresses and minis? They’re back in a sexy way worn with tights and booties or paired with a blazer. Did anybody else tuck in only the front of their t-shirt and left the back out? Now in 2012 we’ve got cute cropped tops that are slightly shorter in the front, giving the same appeal but more form fitted and mature.

What 90’s revival element are you rocking??
