14 Iconic 2000s SCENE Fashion Staples You Can Still Buy

With the 2000s music scene came a plethora of interesting fashion choices. From sideswept bangs to zip-up hoodies, we knew what the look was and how to make the most of it. We still have vivid memories of raiding Hot Topic every weekend to find the perfect item for our emo wardrobe.
While that era is long gone, with only the occasional guyliner remaining, we dug up some nostalgic items to add to your closet and recreate the iconic look.

[@rafagreeneviera8476]

Well now I'm really really happy cause I thought everyone forgot how iconic Invader Zim was on the scene

[@nicolemeans54]

I started wearing studded belts, leather bracelets, chain wallets & pins in 7th grade and am now 20 & have been out of school for two years & never stopped wearing them.
I actually have three chains on my wallet now. The same wallet from 7th grade.

[@BulletProofBacon]

[@mo2wheelz74]

[@briimadawna]

[@AwkwardBlackGal613]

Imma just go through and list everything I have on here xD: rubber bracelets, suspenders, Studded belt, Plaid pants, Striped fingerless gloves, wallet chain, buttons (a lot), Gir hoodie (my fave), Skinny jeans (Not neon though), I gave away my shudder shades back in like 2015 I think, sadly…

[@morbidghoul0759]

[@xxstellastarlightxx9284]

[@mariawesley7583]

Am I just old or is this 80's fashion? Madonna was wearing those black bracelets in 1984. I can picture Duran Duran wearing sweat bands on their wrists around the same time period.

[@jdgx95]

The irony. I was just listening to Good Charlotte's The Young and the Hopeless for TBT then this vid pops up. My adolescence! I had those neon clip in hair extensions from Hot Topic and those tutus over my skinny jeans. Cringe factor 100
