The early 2000s was truly a time to be alive. I mean, I was only two to ten years old during this time period, but I'm still fully aware of the terrible but amazing trends that we would be better off if we had again. Who doesn't love the early 2000s?

1. Tube tops

We technically still have tube tops under the guise of "bandeaus," but these tubular beauties were basically strapless crop tops. And we need them back. Especially leather ones.

2. Random belts on top of shirts

There's no need for that cheetah-print belt to be in the middle of that shirt. It would probably look just fine without it. But you know what? Rihanna didn't care. Actually, no one really cared in 2006.

3. Denim everything

Denim on denim on denim on denim on denim......? Yes, please. I love that just-got-laid-off-from-the-Levi's-factory-so-I-stole-everything-and-ran look.

4. The Rachel Haircut

Honestly, it doesn't even look that great. But that choppy highlighted Mom look really does it for some people. Including me. I'm some people. I love the Rachel Cut.

5. Women wearing ties over random shirts

I'm all for defying gender norms, so there's no surprise I need this trend to return. There's absolutely no reason for that tie to be there. It doesn't add to the outfit. But I love it.

6. Chains on jeans

That chain isn't going anywhere. It isn't helping anything. It's just there as an accessory. It's completely impractical, which is why we need it back.

7. Dresses over pants

Dresses are outfits by themselves. Pants are half an outfit. So you're really wearing one and a half outfits with this look. That means you are one and a half times as awesome when wearing it. Math.

8. Dresses that were probably meant to be shirts

If she bent over, you know what would happen. I need that back.

9. Tank tops paired with really low-cut long skirts

That skirt would probably be a normal length if she pulled it up higher. I think this generation could really pull it off.
