9 Past Fashion Trends That Made A Comeback This Year

Looking back at what we wore 10 years ago is cringeworthy, so why are we so excited about these styles coming back that were popular 20-30 years ago? Whether we want to admit it or not, the fashion trends making their appearances back in to our lives are giving our looks the edge that they needed. Although we are waiting on the shoulder pads and platform heels to make their way back, here are nine trends coming back that we are actually excited about.

1. Denim Jackets


If you're in need of a new fall jacket, you're in luck because the denim jackets are back. It will give any outfit an edgy feel and it looks great over leggings or a t-shirt dress. If you really want to throw it back, you might even want to throw one on over a pair of jeans to really get the denim look.

2. Rompers

This magical ensemble give the look of a dress but the comfort of wearing pants. They were first used by children and referred to as "onesies". Rompers first were made popular in fashion as early as the 1920's. Nearly a century later they are back and more popular than ever.

3. Crop Top


With the recent popularity of crop tops, it is hard to believe that they were ever "out of fashion". Crop tops were popular in the 1940's when they would be worn at outdoor parties and typically were short sleeved and had a collar. Nowadays it is nearly impossible to find a shirt that is long enough to cover

an entire midriff due to this trend.4. Fanny Packs


Despite previous belief, these handy things aren't just for your weird uncle who carries trail mix wherever he goes. Fanny packs are coming back in fashion with their trendy patterns. The fanny pack is an easily accessible storage unit that is easier to carry around than a purse.

5. Braless



Say "goodbye" to the basic red lipstick! Make up companies are making it even harder to find your perfect shade with these bright lipstick trends. From hot pink to blood orange to periwinkle purple, the trend of these colorful lips can add some real pep to your look.

7. Topknot Bun


For a hairstyle first made popular in the 1300's by men, the topknot is sure making its comeback. The topknot is an easy, versatile do that can be worn to a gala or after the gym. It is made easy for all hair types and lengths so anyone can wear one.

8. High Waisted Pants


The high waist look is a look to minimize the waistline and accentuate the curves. During the women's rights movement around the 1940's, it was obscene for women to be wearing pants. As pants became more acceptable for women to wear, the high waisted look became a popular cut for women. The look survived through the 1980's but slowly died out by the 1990's until their major recent comeback.

9. Double Braid


Hair braiding can go all the way back in history to the 1300's where they were worn as signs of wealth, age, etc. Although hair braiding has always been a popular and easy hairstyle, the double braid recently made its comeback as a versatile and convenient look.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
