The 7 Best Fashion Trends From The 1900s That Have Made A Comeback

The 1900's was a wild time. From the first and second World War, the stock market crash, the African American Civil Right's Movement, and the construction and demolition of the Berlin Wall, it was a busy time, but even during this busy time, the fashion industry was booming. Breaking free from other countries fashion expectations, America was finally setting their own trends or revamping others. The trends that hit the market during this time, are making a comeback. Will you be apart of the revival?

1. Chokers.

Choker's date back to the Sumer empire in Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt when they were worn for protection, but in the early 1900's they became a fashion statement. In American culture, they became popular with either a simple black ribbon or even strands of pearls. After the Art Deco era, they lost their popularity and were even known as "Dog Collars". It wasn't until 2015, that they really made a return.

2. High top Converse.

Originating in the early 1900's, Chuck Taylor started selling these shoes for basketball. It wasn't until the 1980's that these became a must-have for fashion. In the early 2000's, trendsetters have rushed to grab the latest pair of low-tops, but in recent years, the revival of high-tops are prominent.

3. Crop tops

The entrance of crop tops into the world began around 1940 but it wasn't until celebrities in the 1980's and 1990's began rocking the crop top. It was also extremely popular for men in the 80's to wear crop tops. This fashion trend was revived in the mid-2010's and doesn't seem to be disappearing any time soon. It has even grown to include crop hoodies to the mix.

4. High waisted jeans.

Glamourized by Hollywood, High Waisted jeans started their fame with Marilyn Monroe in the 1960's. From the 1960's on, High Waisted jeans popped in and out of stardom. In today's, fashion trends, you can catch high waisted jeans or shorts on teens across the globe.

5. Velvet.

In the 1960's velvet was extremely popular among men and were known for the comfortable shirts and pants of that time. Now, it is seen everywhere and is popular in women's fashion including articles of clothing like shirts, dresses and even shoes. You can rock an all velvet outfit from your choker and crop top to your High Top Chuck Taylor's.

6. Fanny packs.

When fanny packs first entered the fashion world, these bags were popular among sports players like skiers to hold their lunches. In the 1980's to 1990's it became a vacation bag that was more accessible and lightweight holding things like money and maps but for today, it's that and more. You can see these on almost anyone walking the streets of Hollywood but maybe with an updated, more stylish and expensive version.Melody Jacobs

7. Clout goggles.

Known by a different name before, 'The Kurt Cobain Glasses", Cobain brought these glasses into style. They were revived with "rappers" of this generation along with the new name of "Clout Goggles" attached to them.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
