90s Trends That Need To Come Back

There is no denying that millennial kids grew up in an unparalleled age of fashion. I mean, do you remember when Justin and Britney showed up on the red carpet in complete jean ensembles? That said, some people thank God that their embarrassing elementary and middle school looks of the 2000s are behind them. Some people even erase any evidence on social media that they ever existed. (We see right through you.) I say let's embrace our fashion past! Leave those 2009 Photo Booth profile pictures up! Take pride in your 7th-grade side bangs! In fact, here are 15 looks that we should bring back in 2016.

1. Crimped Hair

Lizzie McGuire, my first style icon, rocked this look on the daily. Say what you will, but I think that this hairstyle is timeless.


2. Long-Sleeve Shirt Under A T-Shirt

If there is one thing that I love, its fashion and function. This shirt look has both. If it's too hot, you take the long-sleeve shirt off and just wear the T-shirt, if it's only a little hot, you just wear the long sleeve shirt. Plus, there are so many different combinations to choose from. Your wardrobe options just increased by 200 percent.


3. Fleece-Lined Jeans

I can't be the only one who thinks that this was the greatest invention ever. Gap Kids gave me these and I will forever be grateful.


4. Scrunchies

OK, some people have already tried to bring this style back in trend. Thank you, hipsters, for your efforts, but I want to be able to rock a giant velvet scrunchie ponytail without feeling like I'm in an American Apparel photo shoot. What's more, I want to wear those blinged-out scrunchies with the beads and themes. You know the ones that I'm talking about. Let's make America great again and bring back big*ss scrunchies.


5. Double Popped Collar

That's me on the left in 2006. As you can see, I am wearing not one, but two popped polos. Now, I would never go back to that era, but I want to see someone else do it. Come on, it'll be funny cool.


6. Jean Skirts

This cute little number has seen a lot of middle school dances in its day. It deserves to return for a 2016 victory lap.


7. Sugar Lips Tank Tops

Who cares if it was so tight that you dislocated your shoulder while trying to take it off? These were hot. Corsets were big for a reason, people. It's time to bring these back. You get extra points if it's blinding neon.


8. Snap Bracelets

If you don't think that these are sick, you're lying and they double as a useful weapon. My brother learned that in fourth grade.


9. Rolling Backpacks


They may not be as suave as regular over-the-shoulders ones, people may hear you coming from a mile away, and your look may not be appreciated by your contemporaries, but in 50 years when everyone is walking around hunched over from their heavy backpacks, you'll be the one laughing. At least, that's what my mom says.


10. Sketchers Sport Sneakers

Hahahaha, I'm just kidding, I'm not trying to ruin your life.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
