Back From the Future: 90's Style

Ever notice how many trends come back to haunt us from the past? When our mothers excitedly tell us that they wore that in high school...

Anyway! I've been noticing that a lot of trends that were big in the 90's are making a comeback! To me it seems a little soon but I'm not against it! I loved being a child in the 90's with the colorful jumpsuits, bibs, and jean fashion. And with the Chambray shirts back in fashion, it was only a matter of time before the crop top made its stylish way back.

Now I never remember wearing crop tops personally, but I do remember seeing them on TV. From 90210 to Full House, the crop top was everywhere. Luckily in those days only those who could pull it off, wore them. These days it seems to be for the willing...or at least for a Walmart fashion show. Although, in the photos below, the current crop top trend is a bit more fashionable than in the 90's. Instead of just being what the young starlets were wearing, they are hitting the red carpets and launch parties. You tell me, who wore it better: 90's or Today?

Here are the 90's crop tops:

Hungry? Try some CHANEL!

Being the huge Chanel fan that I am, I was super excited for the new Fall/Winter 2014 Fashion Show! I pulled it up and noticed that runway was designed like a supermarket. An extremely colorful supermarket...one that I would expect to see in Rainbow Brite land... 

Back on topic! An edgy outfit started the fashion show and then came the classic Chanel we know and love. Personally, I loved how they did the fashion show. It put off an extraordinarily real woman vibe for Chanel, except instead of actually grocery shopping (which I completely dread), you're picking up a new Chanel (which I could totally live with). Most designers keep runways supremely high fashion, whereas this mixed in the high end fashion with a touch of realism. So, the next time you're thinking about grocery shopping, just channel the Chanel fashion show and go to Rodeo Drive. I think I'll try this one on my hubby. He can live off of bagels and cream cheese, right?

Here is the edgy outfit which started the show. Love the pink!

Who wouldn't want all those white Chanel bags over white walmart grocery bags
