The fact that our favorite decade is making a huge comeback makes us very, very happy. The 90s produced some of the greatest things of all time: Backstreet Boys, pogs, Bonnie Belle chapstick, and how can we forget, Lisa Frank?!?! Even just writing this post brings me back to the days of eating Dunkaroos while watching the Mickey Mouse Club!
In all seriousness though, some of my greatest inspiration comes from the celebrities, movies, and music of this time. The Craft pretty much made chokers cool- and I am THRILLED to be wearing them again. The grunge / goth look is clearly back with embellished leather and biker boots being the staples of the Moschino show today. The crop top is also back– which always reminds me of Cory and Gina from Empire Records. Sugarhigh, anyone? The matching set is also making an appearance- a la Cher & Dionne- but a little more understated. Both Emily & I both picked up a Naked Wardrobe set (post coming soon!).
Matching co-ordinates, denim on denim, striped crop tops, Birkenstocks, tied plaid shirts around the waist, floral skater dresses, overalls, muppet jackets– you name it, it’s all in again! Shop our favorites below:
Jean Jackets
These denim jackets seriously TOOK OVER London Fashion Week. We are seeing them in street style photos everywhere. In my opinion, a jean jacket is the easiest way to ease yourself back into the trends.
Calvin Klein
How many times have you seen the “#mycalvins” tag pop on your Instagram? Yeah, it’s a lot. And for a good reason– this understated sexy look is suddenly THE thing to wear under your clothes. Or as your clothes.
Chokers
I have been rocking the choker & also the layered choker look recently. My obsession finally led to Emily making her own– DIY coming soon!
Platform Sneakers
In case you missed Emily’s post on these, check it out here. We are also seriously digging Olivia Palermo’s patent black ones pictured above!
