9 Trends You Can't Forget From The '90s

Growing up in the 90s meant growing up around all the most eccentric and wildest trends when it came to fashion and toys. The 90s have some of the most ridiculous styles that I still try to understand why we all thought them to be so cool! The fact that there was a time where people liked to wear their pants to the floor, and tie-dye tank tops to make a fashion statement on a day to day basis is just crazy!The way teens dressed when I was a kid and the toys that were being used are things that I wish were still around today. Take a look at some of these throwback trends from the 90's!

1. Bubble Shirts

If you didn't own at least one of these as a teenage girl, then who even were you?

2. Live Strong Bracelets

The goal of live strong bracelets was not only to raise awareness, but to decorate your arm from elbow to wrist in rainbow colors.

3. Crimped Hair

Lizzie Mcguire had all the best hair fashions, and every girl adapted to them in the 90s, especially the crimping.

4. Chokers

Okay, honestly this is a fashion that left the 90's with us and made it's way back into 2016. I don't know how they did it.

5. Tamagotchi Toys

Waking up to an egg with wings after avoiding feeding your Tamagotchi for a couple days, now that was a tragedy.

6. Snap Bracelets

This was the type of trend that can not only be stylish, but it can injure you as well.


7. Stick On Earrings

No need to get your ears pierced, these will do.

8. Scrunchies

I had one in every color.

9. Mood Rings

Ugh, I'm feeling blue today.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
