Everything old is new again.

Welcome back to the 90’s, bitches!

If you’re in the age range where “You’re old enough to know better but still young enough to do it anyways”, then you my friend, remember the 90s.

I remember the 90s as if it were yesterday. From the music, to movies, to fashion, they were truly a great period in pop culture,  so I was more that happy to see the resurgence of that decade in fashion…even more thrilled in that I can still rock my middle school gear and still be able to get away with it. Hah!

From Hole to Wu-tang, to.. who remembers Silverchair? lol..I loved all kinds of music and was influenced by all of it. It was a carefree time..generation “Slackers”, “Mallrats” and “Kids” (if you havent seen that movie, you MUST) and todays post is a style and fashion post dedicated to that decade.

Let me start off with my little muse, Taylor Momsen.

I love Taylor Momsen, and not just because she’s Madonna’s muse as well, and the face of her new “Material Girl” fashion line.. I have adored little Tay-Tay since she surfaced as the “sweet” Little J on Gossip Girl..I love her even more for her transition from doe-eyed child star angel-face to rude rocker bitch. Everytime I see a pik of her the song “Teenage whore” by Hole pops up in my mind. She’s like the bad-influence friend you had in high school that introduced you to cigarettes. I love this little cunt..she epitomizes “badass at 17”..which, by the way…she’s 17.

Here we see Taylor Godsend in her usual 90s’ inspired garb. Ripped jeans, leather jacker, messy Courtney Love inspired over-prossesed bleach blonde messy hair and a cup of coffee. Take notes, bitches.

If there was a poster child for what your kids should NOT wear their junior year of high school, it would be this..but whatever, flawless bitch does no wrong. Here we see Taylor doing the high school version of a walk-of-shame in ripped stocking, doc martens and rosaries..to top it off she added the classic 90s trend of a sweater/shirt tied around her waist..she looks like a hungover groupie at Lollapalooza 1994, but like I said, flawless bitch does no wrong in my eyes.

Speaking of Dr Martens..

Now you know they were popular when Kelly Kapowski and 90s Liv Tyler were sporting them, and they are just as mainstream today.

These grungey, tom-boyish yet super sexy and comfy boots are a personal favorite of mine and as evidence suggests,..they are the favorite of a lot of people too!

Lindsay Lohan..

Amber Rose

Rhianna..

Dakota Fanning..

Xtina Aguilera..

Club go-ers in London.

This is just evidence to show that if you own a pair of Docs’..never get rid of them, for I see this one trend coming back to life over and over again.

Now this is a trend that I don’t see (through) dying out. The mesh shirt.

1993 Madonna wore her Doc Martens and paired them with a mesh shirt and a black bra..

And here in 2010, we see the hottest bitch in charge, Kristen Cavallari wearing a simlar outfit…but with no pants. I see she must of been taking tips from Madonnna on that one too..

And what about the hats…no, not the floppy kind Blossom made the norm, but the cutesty black funky hats that were all the rage 17 years ago?

Shanae Grimes is a fan..

And no 90s post cannot be complete without mentioning the jesus of the 90s..the one man who single handedly immortalized the plaid shirt

Tay-Tay approves..

As does Ashley Tisdale…

.

And Vanessa Hudgens..

And the rest of the world..

And who can forget one of hip hops greatest names, Tupac? The thug spirit lives on alive and well..

in Lady Gaga…bitch represents’.

And remember the Aerosmith video where Alicia Silverstone gets peirced and bungee jumps off the 405 in LA?…remember what she was wearing??

Well cropped tops and shorts are still all the rage nowadays..

As a firm believer in that nothing classic ever gets too old, I am happy to see the funkiest, freshest, funnest trends of the 90’s live on in todays pop culture.

Hopefully this is one trend that will stay around!
