The 1990s were such an exciting time for fashion. The resurgence of some of these ‘90s trends are finally here. Here are seven of my favorites that are back and better than ever

This hair accessory was found everywhere throughout the 1990s. They were the ultimate chic hair accessory. You most likely have watched Rachel Green flawlessly sport one of these in Friends. This trend is now more relevant than ever. The claw clip is super convenient, especially on bad hair days. It perfectly achieves the casual cute look.
2. Bucket Hats
Bucket hats are usually a controversial piece. You either love them or hate them. Either way, we can’t ignore their reemergence. Over the years, bucket hats have revolutionized to become way more fun and convenient to wear. From Rihanna to BTS’ Kim Namjoon, they are seen on the heads of many.
3. Cardigans
In the ‘90s, cardigans were super convenient to throw over a slip dress or some spaghetti straps when the weather got a bit chilly. In 2021, cardigans are still a huge trend that can be seen everywhere. Not only as a sweater, but cardigans are now consistently used as tops. Many are cropped and remain a perfect edition to spice up any casual outfit.

6. Bike Shorts
Thanks in part to the widely popular athleisure trend, bike shorts have risen back into style. Either in or out of the gym, bike shorts are perfect for any occasion. In the ‘90s, even Princess Diana was a fan. In general, bike shorts have now become revamped with new style varieties, colors and materials as it has crossed over into the fashion world.
