10 Long-Lost ’90s Trends Ripe for a Comeback

by

We bet you’re regretting donating all your old overalls to Goodwill right about now, huh? From black light nail polish to slap bracelets and belly button rings, ’90s fashion hasn’t been this popular since, well, the ’90s. Topshop is even selling a pair of high-heeled glitter jellies (which we somewhat embarrassingly are considering copping).

But there are several beloved (or maybe, reviled) ’90s trends that have yet to resurface. Behold, our list of long-lost ’90s trends that now, in 2013, are more than ripe for a comeback. As with all things in fashion, it’s only a matter of time… Will you embrace them?

Ireland Baldwin on Being Compared to Mom Kim Basinger: ‘I Have a Booty, She Has a Thigh Gap’

by

17-year-old aspiring model Ireland Baldwin–daughter of Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger (though she doesn’t really want to be known as that)–took to her personal Tumblr account yesterday to clear up some misconceptions about her career, her family, and society’s ongoing war on young women’s self esteem.

I’ve developed dislexia, I can’t be reading this right,” the modest GOOPy goddess reveals–though obviously it would be an impossibility for someone as practically perfect in every way as Paltrow to develop a learning disability.

Editor’s Pick: Nora’s Surprisingly Wearable and Flattering Overalls

by

I know. I can’t believe how much I like these overalls, either. I purchased them online last week as a part of a much larger order with the idea that I’d probably just return them the second after I’d tried them on and laughed at the fact that I ever thought I could pull off this look. The fact is, I’m short (5’4″), about to turn 26, and rather well endowed on the bosom front. Trendy adult overalls didn’t seem like a real option for me.
