@@holdernessfamilylaughs I'm still laughing at seeing the girls at my daughter's HS wear "Mom Jeans", lol. Like, do they understand that we only wore those while we were losing our pregnancy weight? 🤣 Anyway, it is hilarious and fun to see all the styles from the 70s, 80s, and 90s come back around, lol.
My teen daughter needed something dressy to wear for a band concert. She raised my closet, with my permission. She found a shirt that I've had for probably 20-25 years. It looks like a white button down shirt under a black sweater, but it's really just one shirt. She loved it and claimed it for herself. A few days before that, she was wearing ripped jeans, a Nirvana shirt, and had headphones on. I told her she looked like a 90s grunge band groupie.
As a Gen Xer who works alongside Xennials, this hits HARD! I've had the experience of seeing people walking in with newly printed t-shirts of "old bands, like my mom likes them.." and then told them I saw them LIVE IN CONCERT!!! and they're like "WHOOAAAA.....". Same thing happened a while back, guy came in wearing a reprint of a t-shirt advertising WRESTLEMANIA VI... He was showing me and I just said "Yeah, April 1, 1990 SkyDome Toronto Canada. Ultimate Warrior Beat Hulk Hogan for the title....I WAS THERE!!" And he acted like he wanted to sit me down and hear the stories of "The Olden Days" Speaking of finding things in the closet, I was doing a DEEP clean of the closest in my spare room when I found a pair of Jean shorts that I had tossed in there because I needed a hole patched in the pocket (remember when keys were pointy?) They were early '90 style - Painted and embroidered with DRAGONS and COOL SYMBOLS! i got the pocket patched up and wore them out ONCE and got stopped like 5 times about where I got them!
Yeah , Xennials are in between Xers and Millennial . Most of us are at the end of X age but lumped in X. We were the younger kids at Wrestle Mania . We're old too 😆 :/ 🤦
@LadyEmeraldfyre I like thinking of them as the Oregon Trail generation. Old enough to have bought cassingles and can remember a time before internet.
🤣 I didn't know us Gen Xers were historical figures! Next time you wear the shorts and someone asks you where you got them tell them they can only get to the store you got them in a DeLorean 😉
80's girl here, Doc Martins!! Suddenly I am seeing them everywhere.😊 Back then the only way to get the was to order them from England! Their catalogue consisted of a BW pamphlet with drawings and 3 color choices. (you didn't actually see the color). Then you would place your order in the mail with a money order and wait weeks to get them. All the while hoping to God it wasn't a scam because you really didn't know for sure the first time you ordered them. 😋 I saw my niece wearing a Guns and Roses tee and I was so psyched! I was like hey you like Guns and Roses! And I was going on about my favorite songs. Then she sheepishly said "I don't know who they are, I just thought it looked cool." I was instantly crushed.
I have two pairs of Doc Martens - one of the originals from England and one made in China only 10 years ago and falling apart already though very lightly used. The leather just ripped open. My England ones are from the 80s and scuffed up but still pefectly wearable.
I still wear mine from the 90’s, they’re still in great shape. A couple years ago I got my daughter the black and white brogues and she thought they were super ugly, so I wore them instead and would get complimented on them from the GenZers , now she thinks they’re cool.
True! Dickies store is in the mall now, with “trendy” crop tops. 😳 Pabst has some kind of cold brew coffee right next to it’s regular beer. And my Vans & Chucks are like $70 freaking now. 🫣😭 Times have changed.
GenXer here with teenage daughters, this hits the nail on the head! The newest trend they introduced me to is “coquette”, before that it was “dark academia”, and before that I think it was something like “autumn vibes”. What I see, preppy but make it pink or black or brown. They’re like “Mom, you don’t get it”.
From your comparisons, it seems like you may be thinking of a subcategory of the coquette aesthetic, rather than the overall aesthetic. If Im understanding this trend correctly, the girls I knew in the 90s that had the coquette aesthetic often had white wicker furniture, a daybed, or a canopy bed. Their figurines often included a ballerina and/or carousel horses. I myself had not one but two vintage vanities in my bedroom, as well as the aforementioned figurines.
Ohhh I had this style in my room as a little girl growing up in the 90’s. It kinda happened by accident bc I wanted a canopy bed and my parents found a set secondhand with the white antique design furniture. I also had a ballerina theme at one point. Had no idea there was a name for it!
I've been seeing the baby doll short dresses/skorts jumpers walking around as it warms up. I'm thinking, "Wow! Those look exactly what we were wearing in the early to mid-90's!" Just waiting to see some young lady walking around with multiple colorful barrettes in her hair, in a baby doll dress, with Doc Martens on her feet...😉😂
All my pics from HS graduation, the mexico trip we took- all look exactly like what my daughter wore for her graduation & mexico trip. We couldve exchanged all outfits and no one would blink.
This has Anna Wintour meets Cruella vibes. 😂Loved it! Seriously, when I see teenagers wearing fanny packs as Crossbody bags, I just shake my head in disbelief lol.
Thank you! I have been thinking all of these things. I’m not getting a fanny pack to wear across my chest. We also have to talk about how half the 20-year-old influencers say “vintage ‘90s blowout” when it’s really ‘70s Farrah Fawcett hair. And then “wolf cut” shows up as a “hot girl trend”. Google what it is and it’s Carol Brady hair. That one is a big nope for me.
My style has become a lot simpler trading graphic tees for solid colored shirts in every color and same with pants/shorts. It gives me so many options! Fanny packs are not cross body in my head though, its just a fanny pack worn weird you still look like a parent at disney if you wear one. I also wear vintage inspired from the 50/60s it looks great and it's work appropriate and long enough I don't have to think about how I sit.
the cross body bag aka fanny pack 🤣 🤣 🤣 that's the first thing I thought of when the cross body bags became all the rage 🤣, but yes as a fellow GenXer who kept and still fits in many of my clothes from the '90s (both casual and office attire) I do get asked which online stores I got it from (so they're assuming it's brand new and not somewhere from a charity shop) and the shock on their face when I say I've had it for 30 years 😅. it has also not escaped my notice that many of the clothes sold in malls and online feels like deja vu because I remember wearing those exact same styles, colors, textures etc, but I gotta admit that the ones sold now has some subtle improvements like its made of better, stretchable / breathable fabrics, more garterized waistline and just better flow of movement.
When I was a senior in high school, my mom bought me a knee-length coat - I loved it! It was black plush with narrow stripes of all different colors - very hip. I still have it! (I graduated high school in 1970 - definitely vintage!)
I am absolutely getting back into wide leg jeans! Not crazy wide, not talking JNCOs here, but thank goodness I don't have to cram my body into skinnies anymore! This iteration of wide leg has some stretch, too, so not as rigid and uncomfortable as what I lived in during high school and college.
The ripped jeans with tights underneath and either a huge t-shirt or a huge sweatshirt. THAT was my look in '88-'89!! It cracks me up to see the kids bringing back the awesome '80's looks. It makes me laugh how "jams " are now called "board shorts", how HUGE t-shirts with leggings is so cool, and how bell bottom jeans are now called boot cut jeans. Now it's time to bring back the HUGE hair that we all rocked! Of course..we'll have to explain how to do the tease, spray (the purple Aqua Net hairspray of course), blow dry it in place, then spray it again. Us Gen Xers are the BEST!!!
I'm down to return to big hair... that's what my actual hair is like. I've been flatironing it ever since. 86-90 was wash, scrunchy spray and go! My favorite boot cut jeans ripped recently and didn't think twice about wearing leggings under them. Too bad I don't have my RELAX oversized Tee :)
@@jawjagrrl That's right!! They're relaxed oversized tees!!! LOL I did my '80's hair one year for Halloween and our kids were SHOCKED at how big and puffy I made it (and of course how much hair spray I used too!) !!! LOL
Kim becomes a different person in that Andy Warhol wig. I couldn't stop laughing ! Next time you guys go to NYC, you should walk around Midtown Manhattan dressed like that.
Our local school district had a big 80's themed day at all the campuses, celebrating 80 days left in the school year. I was looking for images for my son to choose what he wanted to do. I noticed that minus the hair most boys style had not changed. He already had everything in his closet, polo or button down shirts, sweaters with an arglye pattern across the front, star wars t-shirts.
So Funny! I was just in an Old Navy store yesterday and they have the slouchy thick cable knit sweaters we Gen Xers rocked in the 80s! Target literally has 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s "fashions" in their store, you can pick a decade or two and go with it! LOL
Incredibly my husband's clothing choices are in style (for now): Birkenstocks (worn for 30+ years), lined flannel shirt jacket (newly re-named as a shacket) and his Yellowstone sweatshirt (yes, we really, truly, actually visited there 20 years ago). Wear what you love!!!!! Video spot on, love you ;)
This is hilariously accurate. Teenaged girls walking around in high-waisted Grandma jeans. Lmao Also, yeah, I see teenagers wearing t-shirts for bands they don’t even know. My wife says I am still not allowed to get a fanny pack.
Grandmas look bad in them, twiggy teens look just as bad in them (mom jeans). Also, most people look terrible in skinny jeans. Do people not own mirrors? Wearing shirts of things you don't personally endorse, I've never understood that.
I'm always so disappointed when I compliment someone my age or younger on a cool t-shirt for a band I love and it turns out they're just wearing the shirt because it looks cool and they don't actually listen to the band. 😑
@@ThinWhiteAxe yup, I call it posing. We are an outdoorsy family so same goes for all the dirtbike, atv type gear. If you wear Fox, Polaris or Thor, you better be out jumping bikes and shredding snow! Although.... I don't do yoga and still own far too many LuLuLemon pants......what a poser.😅
I never gave up on bootcuts or Flares (they just look so friggin good on me). I knew they'd come back some day! One thing that makes me laugh is when I see younger folk "updating" a look it's literally just what I remember my friends' moms wearing in the 90s.
I never stopped wearing boot cut jeans. They just fit best! I found one of my old scrunchies and have been enjoying wearing it again! I like the idea of a fanny pack/ cross body bag, but as a mom with little ones, I have to have something bigger. Lol
Wide leg jeans are SO high on my list! My little high school heart soared when I saw them creeping into trends middle/end of 2022! Also, def saw an actual child that looked like a little me 20 years ago recently and it made me smile.
Legend has it that Led Zepplin named themselves after the metaphor, when someone heard their music and said it would "go over like a lead balloon". So... it's both! :D
Things I’ve started wearing again? Ha! I never stopped wearing them…… As for old band shirts - I was out with friends and their 10yo hand a Pink Floyd shirt on, I asked what was his favorite song? He just gave me the side eye. His dad and I had a good laugh.
I was looking for a new purse and couldn’t believe all the “cross-body” bags I was seeing. I was thinking “how is this different from a Fanny pack?” I think they look ridiculous wearing it over the chest.
I had a friend that wore her fanny pack around her neck/chest as she rode her horse. I thought that looks like a quick way to get hung by a tree branch and die.
Awesome job Kim! In the movie 80 For Brady the Sally Field character was all about the fanny pack and wore it across her body. So yeah fanny packs are in and out!
This is SO TRUE!!! You nailed it, Kim! These kids think THEY came up with these ideas. The 80's and 90's had EVERYTHING!! I saw a young kid with a Def Leppard shirt on the other day. She probably doesn't even know what a GREAT band they are and how long they have been around. And how long we have used fanny packs! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have two LL Bean seersucker tank tops that are 35 years old. I love them…..I love seersucker, especially here in NC in the summer. I half thought of asking the Bean company to re-issue them - as they are so well made and fit beautifully, with classic styling and colors - but I got tired and needed a nap so I went to bed instead. Granny Camper!!!
I love seeing fashion with fresh eyes. Wide leg pants, flowing materials, flannel -all comfortable, practical, and flattering (if you work it right). I personally can’t carry prairie neuvo off. It just doesn’t work with my lines or coloring but congrats to taller more dramatic body types that could work that look.
That's why I never throw away clothes I like. In the worst case I can donate them to good friends. But usually they live in my closet, come back to fashion, and I wear them again!
I just wear what I like and is comfortable. I don't care if it's in fashion or not. Trends come and go so quickly, and people only see you for a split second, anyway. I am not trying to impress a city full of strangers.
Boot cut/Wide leg jeans, I never stopped wearing them. Been wearing them since I was 15? I’m 38 now. I’m just back in style. Same with my eyebrows, never went through thin eyebrows… Just kept them the way they were.
I never stopped wearing them either, wish I could say the same about the eyebrows! They grew back from the 90’s skinny eyebrow trend, too bad they didn’t get the same memo from the 2000’s skinny brow trend.
Oh this is SO TRUE! I politely disagree with wearing band logos when you have no idea about that band. 😐 The fashion cycle of bringing things back is nothing new though. I remember when I was a teen in the 2000s and we wore bell bottom jeans, my mom used to tell me how she wore those as a young adult in the 70s. 😄
You know what's funny about the 70s stuff that became cool again in the 90s... Some 70s looks did NOT come back in the 90s but Gen Z is somehow finding them and labeling them 90s. Huh? 😂
I never stopped wearing bootcut jeans. To my knowledge, Target clothing is known as the ugly clothes amongst teens and no one is wearing them. I think your tshirt with the blazer is spot on. I have an orange and blue tshirt that says Nirvana and I always get a Gen Z compliment when I wear it out. 😅
Yes! At first, they didn't have them for women. I used to buy the men's 501 bootcut for years until they started to make womens! Luckily, I was very young and still rail thin. Now a days I could never pull that off with my hips. 😅
I stopped wearing jeans when my pair of bootcut jeans wore out. I tried to find new jeans and couldn't find any I liked, so I gave up jeans altogether.
Me too, I never stopped wearing boot cut and last year I was in America shopping for Levi's and after seeing all the mom jeans on everyone I despaired that Levi's still made boot cut. But guess what, THEY DO!!!!!! That means something. That means you and I have kept the style going! Don't stop!
When I was a teen I used to take out some pieces from my mom's closet. Then go and use them for weeks before anyone got hands on something similar. I loved being "a trend settler" 😂🙄 really it's funny how teen brains work
Love your perspective Kim. Wearing my flare jeans happily after the skinny Jean rework. Long live flare jeans! So comfy. Skinny jeans were the only time I felt like maybe my knees are fat.
I have seen all of these in the mall. I just saw that platform sandals are back. These were in when I was a teen in the 90s and at that time I had borrowed them from my mom. These trends are the trends that keep on giving.
The last time I wore platform sandals was in 2002, and I will never wear them again. I sprained my ankle going up stairs in them! It took over a month to heal!
The things that were cool in the 70s, and that resurfaced in the 90s so we borrowed them from our moms. These are the things that confuse the kids today. They label a shoulder length wavy, layered hairdo a "90s blowout" but it's really a 70s or early 80s hairdo, like the kind we would see in an old JC Penny's catalog in Grandma's house, or in a photo of our moms when we were babies. I think the kids got it right when they were only copying late 90s grunge, and mid 90s Kelly Kapowski, but they kept going and they don't know which stuff is 70s vs 90s.
I won’t buy my daughters a band t-shirt unless they can name a few songs and listen to some of the music and since they are always making fun of what I listen to it looks like t-shirts from bands from the 70’s - mid 2000’s won’t be making an appearance in their closet 😂
Oh my gosh! I totally saw pleather pants and Fanny packs on clearance this week 😂. I commented to my daughter that I had both of those in high school 😂
The baggy jeans with extra pockets are great! I have got my husband's pair in black and the pockets are able to be used properly. One even zips up. Heaven!
There really is a huge rise in vegan leather made from actual plants and neither animals nor plastic! Mushrooms, pineapples, apples... just to name a few.
True but not so many that I know her into the true vegan leather stuff. My niece and all her friends that are in their early twenties are really into the vegan leather which actually was called pleather back in our day.
For me, it is the Steve Madden wedge slide with the wide, stretchy single strap. The one that makes the distinctive "slap, slap" sound when you walk. I lived in those when my kids were little and I didn't have time to tie my shoes! I went shoe shopping with my daughter and she HAD to try them on!
Kim is hysterical when she's acting alongside herself, you'd forget that she's playing both characters!
You're far too kind.
I agree
I totally forget it's the same person!
I agree. I love how she changes her voice.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I have clothes that are so old that they qualify as actual vintage. They have gone out of style and come back in style at least 3 times.
It's the gift that keeps on giving.
The styles cycle faster and faster. A couple of years ago we were told to get rid of all our exaggerated platforms and now I see them everywhere.

Your daughter has taste. Incredible.
Oh I miss those shirts. I loved them so much 😭
@@Migkamilla Hot Topic sells such shirts. 2nd hand stores will have'em too. They're out there somewhere.

@@lyndylou3642 Here in the states in the '80's we called them "jams" since most of us that wore them weren't anywhere near the beach!! LOL
Kim becomes a different person in that Andy Warhol wig. I couldn't stop laughing !
Next time you guys go to NYC, you should walk around Midtown Manhattan dressed like that.
Our local school district had a big 80's themed day at all the campuses, celebrating 80 days left in the school year. I was looking for images for my son to choose what he wanted to do. I noticed that minus the hair most boys style had not changed. He already had everything in his closet, polo or button down shirts, sweaters with an arglye pattern across the front, star wars t-shirts.
So Funny! I was just in an Old Navy store yesterday and they have the slouchy thick cable knit sweaters we Gen Xers rocked in the 80s! Target literally has 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s "fashions" in their store, you can pick a decade or two and go with it! LOL
Really!
Yep, I was in Old Navy last week and was amazed to find ugly '80s jackets on the mannequins.
I just looked up cable knit sweaters, I remember those! I did not know that was what they were called (thanks for the reference).
I refuse to wear anything that was cutting edge first time I wore it. Since I'm now over 60, there aren't many new trends that I haven't already seen!
Overalls and scrunchies. To be fair, though, I never stopped wearing these lol! I'm in my 40's, I get to wear whatever I want haha!!
Target has been pushing prairie dresses for at least 5 years. They must have huge warehouses full of them. 🎯 🛒 🛍️
Ahh, prairie dresses, what every girl needs for her cult induction. 🙄
I hate them so much. They’re not meant for people with breasts larger than a C cup.
I used to rock prairie dresses with docs I'm sure I could wear a version of that now.
Incredibly my husband's clothing choices are in style (for now): Birkenstocks (worn for 30+ years), lined flannel shirt jacket (newly re-named as a shacket) and his Yellowstone sweatshirt (yes, we really, truly, actually visited there 20 years ago). Wear what you love!!!!! Video spot on, love you ;)
He was trendy! Thanks for the love
i hate the word shacket LOL
Peasant blouses. I wore them as a teen in the 70s and I’m wearing them again at 63…never thought that would happen.
This is hilariously accurate. Teenaged girls walking around in high-waisted Grandma jeans. Lmao
Also, yeah, I see teenagers wearing t-shirts for bands they don’t even know.
My wife says I am still not allowed to get a fanny pack.
Grandmas look bad in them, twiggy teens look just as bad in them (mom jeans). Also, most people look terrible in skinny jeans. Do people not own mirrors? Wearing shirts of things you don't personally endorse, I've never understood that.
Every time I see high-waisted jeans being worn, the SNL Mom Jeans goes through my head and I laugh (inside).
@@lorindav5549 💯
I'm always so disappointed when I compliment someone my age or younger on a cool t-shirt for a band I love and it turns out they're just wearing the shirt because it looks cool and they don't actually listen to the band. 😑
@@ThinWhiteAxe yup, I call it posing. We are an outdoorsy family so same goes for all the dirtbike, atv type gear. If you wear Fox, Polaris or Thor, you better be out jumping bikes and shredding snow! Although.... I don't do yoga and still own far too many LuLuLemon pants......what a poser.😅
I never gave up on bootcuts or Flares (they just look so friggin good on me). I knew they'd come back some day!
One thing that makes me laugh is when I see younger folk "updating" a look it's literally just what I remember my friends' moms wearing in the 90s.
I never stopped wearing boot cut jeans. They just fit best! I found one of my old scrunchies and have been enjoying wearing it again! I like the idea of a fanny pack/ cross body bag, but as a mom with little ones, I have to have something bigger. Lol
I do love the crossbody bag situation.
I got a hip bag so I can have my hands free for kids and stuff. Love it!
0:25 "I can't believe it's not leather" 😂
I just ordered a vegan leather jacket and had this same conversation with my sister. This is HILARIOUS!
Wide leg jeans are SO high on my list! My little high school heart soared when I saw them creeping into trends middle/end of 2022!
Also, def saw an actual child that looked like a little me 20 years ago recently and it made me smile.
Whispers "It's not vintage". As a Gen Xer, I felt that.
The other day I walked past a teen wearing flannel, ripped jeans and combat boots. I felt so damn old 😭😭😭
I saw a grandma wearing purple sparkly doc martens and I was so happy for her. I plan to be buried in mine.
This was how I dressed for a good chunk of my mid-20's.
That describes my college attire.
I’ve always worn jeans and t-shirts. I’ve never followed fashion trends, I just like what’s comfortable and easy to wear for anything.
Legend has it that Led Zepplin named themselves after the metaphor, when someone heard their music and said it would "go over like a lead balloon". So... it's both! :D
I read that in the book "Hammer of the Gods."
Things I’ve started wearing again? Ha! I never stopped wearing them……
As for old band shirts - I was out with friends and their 10yo hand a Pink Floyd shirt on, I asked what was his favorite song? He just gave me the side eye. His dad and I had a good laugh.
Right? Like name 3 songs or take it off!
You saying, "Vintaaagge"....comedy gold. xo
I adore the comeback of cargopants, yeah, yeah!
Lol just put it on "Til Tok" omg that delivery was perfect
I was looking for a new purse and couldn’t believe all the “cross-body” bags I was seeing. I was thinking “how is this different from a Fanny pack?” I think they look ridiculous wearing it over the chest.
I had a friend that wore her fanny pack around her neck/chest as she rode her horse. I thought that looks like a quick way to get hung by a tree branch and die.
I do not like this trend either. Fanny pack were ugly back then, and they are still ugly lol
Scrunchies are my favorite trend that's come back. I stocked up😆
Kim’s acting skills never cease to make me laugh
Awesome job Kim! In the movie 80 For Brady the Sally Field character was all about the fanny pack and wore it across her body. So yeah fanny packs are in and out!
This is SO TRUE!!! You nailed it, Kim! These kids think THEY came up with these ideas. The 80's and 90's had EVERYTHING!! I saw a young kid with a Def Leppard shirt on the other day. She probably doesn't even know what a GREAT band they are and how long they have been around. And how long we have used fanny packs! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love wearing my Cure ,Depeche and Duran shirts to the grocery store and the kids say cool vintage 😁
If "coastal grandma" means I can find linen pants, sign me up!
OMG!! 😂 I loved this!!! I love to sew bags and a lot the newest patterns are fanny packs disguised as crossbodies! That and tiny backpacks. LOL!!
“Just put it on TikTok, the kids will think it’s their idea.” Boom!
I have two LL Bean seersucker tank tops that are 35 years old. I love them…..I love seersucker, especially here in NC in the summer. I half thought of asking the Bean company to re-issue them - as they are so well made and fit beautifully, with classic styling and colors - but I got tired and needed a nap so I went to bed instead. Granny Camper!!!
I love seeing fashion with fresh eyes. Wide leg pants, flowing materials, flannel -all comfortable, practical, and flattering (if you work it right). I personally can’t carry prairie neuvo off. It just doesn’t work with my lines or coloring but congrats to taller more dramatic body types that could work that look.
The bell bottoms and prairie look and ponchos - not really into style but I'm glad to see these favorites back 😄
I loved leg warmers then (80's)and I am wearing them right now!
I had no idea prairie stuff was back in style, but that is what I wear. Cool!
That's why I never throw away clothes I like. In the worst case I can donate them to good friends. But usually they live in my closet, come back to fashion, and I wear them again!
I just wear what I like and is comfortable. I don't care if it's in fashion or not. Trends come and go so quickly, and people only see you for a split second, anyway. I am not trying to impress a city full of strangers.
Boot cut/Wide leg jeans, I never stopped wearing them. Been wearing them since I was 15? I’m 38 now. I’m just back in style. Same with my eyebrows, never went through thin eyebrows… Just kept them the way they were.
Is it true that natural eyebrows are in style? I don't know any decade where women didn't do something to them.
I never stopped wearing them either, wish I could say the same about the eyebrows! They grew back from the 90’s skinny eyebrow trend, too bad they didn’t get the same memo from the 2000’s skinny brow trend.
@@LythaWausW I get compliments and get asked how I have them “thick”…lol. Just never shaped or thinned them to begin with.
And apparently center parts are in too. Another win for me! Haha! Never changed from 1995.
I love how your always like not everything old is vintage lol
Oh this is SO TRUE!
I politely disagree with wearing band logos when you have no idea about that band. 😐
The fashion cycle of bringing things back is nothing new though. I remember when I was a teen in the 2000s and we wore bell bottom jeans, my mom used to tell me how she wore those as a young adult in the 70s. 😄
You know what's funny about the 70s stuff that became cool again in the 90s... Some 70s looks did NOT come back in the 90s but Gen Z is somehow finding them and labeling them 90s. Huh? 😂
I told my kids they can't wear a band t-shirt if they can't name 3 songs from that band 🤣
Yeah, I have a number of cross-body bags that I wear around my waist. So glad they came back!
I never stopped wearing bootcut jeans. To my knowledge, Target clothing is known as the ugly clothes amongst teens and no one is wearing them. I think your tshirt with the blazer is spot on. I have an orange and blue tshirt that says Nirvana and I always get a Gen Z compliment when I wear it out. 😅
Yes! At first, they didn't have them for women. I used to buy the men's 501 bootcut for years until they started to make womens! Luckily, I was very young and still rail thin. Now a days I could never pull that off with my hips. 😅
I stopped wearing jeans when my pair of bootcut jeans wore out. I tried to find new jeans and couldn't find any I liked, so I gave up jeans altogether.
I am with you, I am still wearing boot cut jeans, never stopped. I did miss the flares too though.
Me too, I never stopped wearing boot cut and last year I was in America shopping for Levi's and after seeing all the mom jeans on everyone I despaired that Levi's still made boot cut. But guess what, THEY DO!!!!!! That means something. That means you and I have kept the style going! Don't stop!
I still wear bootcuts too
I just started snacking on plant based sun flower seeds...amazing. LOL
Thank you for the closed captioning that's so accurate and has punctuation! 🥰
When I was a teen I used to take out some pieces from my mom's closet. Then go and use them for weeks before anyone got hands on something similar. I loved being "a trend settler" 😂🙄 really it's funny how teen brains work
I love how u always say "it's fine, it's fine" 😂
Love your perspective Kim. Wearing my flare jeans happily after the skinny Jean rework. Long live flare jeans! So comfy. Skinny jeans were the only time I felt like maybe my knees are fat.
The cross body bags though for real 🤣🤣
Everybody loves Diane Keaton.
Truly an icon
I have seen all of these in the mall. I just saw that platform sandals are back. These were in when I was a teen in the 90s and at that time I had borrowed them from my mom. These trends are the trends that keep on giving.
The last time I wore platform sandals was in 2002, and I will never wear them again. I sprained my ankle going up stairs in them! It took over a month to heal!
The things that were cool in the 70s, and that resurfaced in the 90s so we borrowed them from our moms. These are the things that confuse the kids today. They label a shoulder length wavy, layered hairdo a "90s blowout" but it's really a 70s or early 80s hairdo, like the kind we would see in an old JC Penny's catalog in Grandma's house, or in a photo of our moms when we were babies. I think the kids got it right when they were only copying late 90s grunge, and mid 90s Kelly Kapowski, but they kept going and they don't know which stuff is 70s vs 90s.
" Vintage!!" "Vintage!!!" 🤣🤣🤣
“My life, what happened? I went to college” 😂😂😂
So Great! Vegan Leather is the next big thing lol. I am trying to bring jean shorts back, it's time.
Yes lol
And it's literally pleather.
@@holdernessfamilylaughs Being made from fossil fuels, it's not even vegan, is it?
Remember they are called JORTS now LOL
@@losergamer04 Awesome comment !!!
100% Explains why my 10yr old asked for a Nirvana sweatshirt and she literally has no idea who they are 😪
They have to know the lyrics to at least one song before they get it!
I won’t buy my daughters a band t-shirt unless they can name a few songs and listen to some of the music and since they are always making fun of what I listen to it looks like t-shirts from bands from the 70’s - mid 2000’s won’t be making an appearance in their closet 😂
@@holdernessfamilylaughs WORD!!
Never ever thought fanny packs would come back.
🤣🤣🤣 True. And I love coastal grandmother. This has been my Mother in laws style all along lol.
Wow! I am vintage! Been that way for over a decade!
We did the same thing and called it “hippy”!
It's so nice to see Kim in a starring role in these videos!
"My life... what happened... I went to college." 🤣
My daughter got a crossbody bag for Christmas. It's a fanny pack lol! Everthing old is new again!
Kids are in Rollerblades again! Never thought I'd see the day those came back!
Oh my gosh! I totally saw pleather pants and Fanny packs on clearance this week 😂. I commented to my daughter that I had both of those in high school 😂
Mt Trapper Keeper and I are SUPER STOKED about the Lisa Frank colors coming back in this year. 🤩😂
Hated my corduroy pants back in kindergarten! I found some recently and decided to take a chance, I actually love them!
Never thought I’d wear boot cut or wide legged jeans again. Or chunky shoes. Feels like I’m in high school again. 😂
All the 90s trends came back to haunt us.
@@holdernessfamilylaughs I never thought Teva sandals would come back.
@@karaitskara Bold of you to assume they ever left! 😂 My family bought Tevas exclusively until the mid 2010s. My dad still does!
Boss "YES EXACTLY" The faces, the pronunciation, i am here for all of it ❤
Have kulots made a combat? They weren't even the first time around. I think they existed more briefly than parachute pants. Like for 30 seconds.
Fanny packs are my new favorite throw back!
SCRUNCHIES!!!! So happy they’re back!
The baggy jeans with extra pockets are great! I have got my husband's pair in black and the pockets are able to be used properly. One even zips up. Heaven!
There really is a huge rise in vegan leather made from actual plants and neither animals nor plastic! Mushrooms, pineapples, apples... just to name a few.
True but not so many that I know her into the true vegan leather stuff. My niece and all her friends that are in their early twenties are really into the vegan leather which actually was called pleather back in our day.
Cacti, too. There's a brand that makes casual "athletic " shoes.
For me, it is the Steve Madden wedge slide with the wide, stretchy single strap. The one that makes the distinctive "slap, slap" sound when you walk. I lived in those when my kids were little and I didn't have time to tie my shoes! I went shoe shopping with my daughter and she HAD to try them on!
