I really did fight it, but there’s no doubt that the 90’s has been trending for quite some time. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some Clueless, Romeo and Juliet, and Nirvana grunge nostalgia, I’ve just been stubborn about re-living certain things. The choker necklace for one. I remember hot glue gunning my own velvet chokers at like 9 years old and thinking it was THE coolest. Fast forward 20 years and here I am, fashioning a choker necklace out of a string from a blouse. Clearly my crafty frugalness hasn’t changed!
Seriously though, thinking it wasn’t going to be that flattering, I really did just grab the string that fell off a blouse and tie it in a bow. I think I like the look too, might even actually invest in one that you actually buy from a store. Maybe go really old school and get another velvet one just for fun!
One nod to the 90’s that I absolutely love is the deep berry/brown lip shades. The moodiness of the bold, darker shade is simply perfect for fall. The modern 90’s trend is something I look forward to further exploring this season. How about you, have you given it a try, even in a subtle way?
