Starter jackets anyone ?). Girls were also not afraid to wear an all around baggy outfit quite contrary to the bandage dresses and bare it all style of the 2010 ’ s . I updated the boyish cool look of the 90 ’ s by pairing an oversized jersey with a mini skirt and pump – because what ’ s the harm of showing a little leg ?

SUPER MODEL SWAG One thing that made the 90 ’ s stand out was the rise ( and eventual fall ) of the super model . Super Models were thin , extra gorgeous beings that were plastered on everything that needed marketing and was what the “ fashion industry ” based everything on . Thank God those unrealistic expectations have been broken , but one great thing that came from super models was their effortlessly cool swag . It ’ s about simplicity with this look and is a look we all have in our closet right now . The jean on jean outfit is super 90 ’ s . Add on a white bodysuit and block heel and you ’ ll look like a Guess ? ad in a heartbeat . Distressed Jeans ( similar ) Vintage Guess ?

THE OVERALL LOOK Overalls were an overall key look for the 90 ’ s , pun intended . You could see them on the most respected hip-hop artist to the peppiest schoolgirl . Mix it with grunge style via combat boots and it ’ s as if Naughty by Nature collabed on “ OPP ” with Nirvana .

WHAT IS THAT ?! VELVET ?! One of the most memorable lines from one of the most iconic 90 ’ s ( technically 80 ’ s , but we all grew up on it ) movie – Coming to America . Velvet , amongst other great textures designers played with ( who else stayed in corduroy pants in grade school ?) gave the 90 ’ s fashion scene yet another cool factor . This plush fabric is still one of my favorites to this day . Oversized trousers are a chic staple needed in your closet ASAP . I paired it with the essential 90 ’ s piece – a crop top with bell sleeves . Add a choker and it will make for the perfect The Craft meets Clueless meets TLC vibes .
