When we think of the '90s, fashion icons such as Alicia Silverstone, Drew Barrymore, and Courtney Love may come to our minds. These women were the queens of grunge, a look that has made its comeback in fashion today. Our generation should be proud to be '90s natives; it was the calm before the technology storm, the last time life was truly simple. Plagued by my recent nostalgia, I decided to share the revival of the iconic '90s fashion of my youth. Perhaps by breathing new life into the fashion of our youth, we can pay tribute to the era we hail from and indulge in the carefree lifestyle the trends promote. Consider these classic throwback looks that you may see on the streets this spring.

1. Accent braids: These messy braids are popular everywhere, from music festivals to the runway, and are super easy for an everyday bohemian style.

2. Brown and berry lipstick shades: Balance these bold shades with a simple eye, like Kylie. These lips add a sophisticated touch to your look.

3. Choker necklaces: We can all breathe a sigh of relief, because every '90s girl's favorite accessory is back. Chokers add an edgy touch to any outfit and are fun to layer with other jewelry.

4. Crop tops: The skimpy tops we all hate to love. Britney may have done it first, but these tops are back with a new flavor. Paired with a high waistline, the tops show just the right amount of skin and are versatile enough to dress up or down.

5. Denim jacket: A must-have staple in every '90s kid's closet. This jacket is timeless and can be paired with virtually anything for a casual vibe.

6. Doc Martens: This go-to edgy boot is back with vibrant colors and a variety of textures. The shoe is great for any season and is a versatile option for the girl who has too many clothes and not enough closet space (i.e., every girl).

7. Flannels: Another timeless trend, flannels are cozy and cute, and can be styled for any season. The flannel is the trademark of '90s grunge style. Wear it by itself, over a striped or solid top, or tie it around your waist.

8. Floral skater dress: This dress is an effortlessly feminine reminder of our childhood. Wear this youthful piece with a cute cardigan or denim jacket in the fall or summer.

9. Funky buns: The lazy girl's favorite hair style. Wear two, or just tie half of your hair up into one bun for a laid-back look. This hairdo is everywhere on campus and is the perfect messy updo for those pesky 8 a.m.'s.

10. Jelly sandals: If these don't make you nostalgic for the '90s, nothing will. Jellies are back with quirky new colors and styles. Paired with socks or bare feet, these shoes will never fail to add some pep to your step.

11. Overalls: The '90s kids' unofficial uniform. Overalls are a playful and fun style to explore. Cute new washes and endless layering options make these the perfect sunny-day outfit.

12. Scrunchies: Possibly the most beloved hair accessory of the decade, scrunchies have made a huge comeback. They're so uncool that they're ridiculously cool, and we can't get enough of their retro goodness.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.
