90's Right Now

Our challenge last week for Fashion Canada Style Panel was to show how we can make a 90's look work for right now. I noticed quite a few people sat that one out, so perhaps many of you are of the mindset that it actually can't be done. 90's is 90's and it wasn't necessarily good. However, if I look back through my outfits on Instagram the past few months, it's clear to me that I have subconsciously embraced the grunge vibe. To keep it of the moment, and avoid being overly literal in my interpretation (which is #notchic) I mixed in athletic elements and kept it all in black and white, two other trends that seem to be having a moment as well. 
I went with a graphic tee, beanie, and these great pants that reminded me of my once coveted Adidas tear-aways. You could also add more layers like an open plaid shirt as long as they are thin. This can get messy fast, so make sure other details are more feminine and polished like your hair, makeup, nails and jewelry. Anyone want to meet me at recess to play Pogs for keeps?

  3. You are rocking this 90's look! The pants are amazing! And you are too cute - pogs at recess! I was just slightly too old for this but my sister was huge on pogs. I think they even got banned when kids started trading their lunches for slammers. ;)

    1. LOL, I think I'm slightly too old for Pogs as well. I'm not sure I could even identify one if it were placed in front of me. I agree that Steffi is rocking this look!!
