We all remember the days of the ever-stylish butterfly clips, popcorn shirts, and gauchos. These items were the building blocks of our fashion obsession, and chances are, if you were a LTD2 girl, they still have a special place in your heart. So, to all my 9'0s ladies, break out your American Girl doll and a CapriSun and take a trip down memory lane... it's a girl's world, after all.
1. Toe Socks
These provided sweet warm hugs for our foot fingers. Each toe was delicately wrapped in a blanket of love and acceptance. Could be worn with flip flops and a jean jacket for extra style. V-stylish.
2. Shorts with Words on the Butt
Honestly, if your glutes didn’t display your hobbies (which obviously included gymnastics, track, or cheer), like, who even were you? Could be paired with a fake sport jersey (but nobody would ever know you weren’t “Too Athletics #00”).
3. The Skort
When you want to wear Sophies, but you have a school dance at 7, these were your go-to. Could be paired with a cute panda tee and rhinestone sandals for peak cuteness.
4. Built-in Bra Camis
Do I even have to explain this one? You could skip the training bra and go straight to the camisole, which were a total necessity under a sweater wrap, a big-lettered Limited Too sweatshirt, or maybe even another tank. Who knew sensible could be so stylish?
5. Bell-Bottomed Jeans
When you were feeling extra groovy, these were an essential—a wardrobe staple. These were especially adorable while wearing a shirt with some type of animal holding a peace sign.
6. Popcorn Shirts
WHY DID THIS TREND EVER DIE?! These ultra light-weight, textile masterpieces from took the world by storm in the early 2000s. They added a texture so unique and comfy that even T-Swifty had to get in on the action.
7. Inflatable Furniture
Limited Too really hit a gold mine with this one. Your third grade self could purchase an entire inflatable living room for three weeks’ worth of allowance. So what if it ripped your skin off when you stood up on a hot day?
8. Silk PJs
You wouldn’t be caught DEAD in anything other than a silky pair of monkey pajamas at your BFF’s birthday bring-your-own-blanket slumber party, would you? I didn’t think so. Throw in some matching monkey-face slippers and you were ready for some razzle-dazzle with the old digital camera.
9. Assorted Glitter-Filled Accessories
We all remember how hard it was to choose between the glitter spray and the glitter gloss. Just know that you were G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S (sing that in Fergie’s voice or you’re not a real '90s kid).
10. Magic Zip-Off Convertible Pants
Again, another convertible yet stylish closet essential. Complete with a sparkle tank and butterfly clip, all the boys in your Limited Too diary were sure to gawk.
