STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Bringing Back the '90s

September 16th, 2015 at 2:00am

You know when you’re at the mall or attending a party and you take a quick moment to observe everyone around you? That happened to me recently. I was making my way downtown, walking fast and a certain accessory kept reappearing. You’re probably wondering what it was, right? Well, you’ll find out soon enough.

Like we all know, fashion is constantly evolving. What is considered stylish right now might not necessarily be deemed “cool” in the next decade. However, sometimes designers and major style icons bring certain trends back. Right now, there seems to be an obsession with all things ’90s. And nothing says the ’90s like the bucket hat.

I thought this accessory was left behind, I guess I was wrong. Celebrities like Rihanna and Pharrell Williams have been spotted rocking this headwear. This is probably because it’s a stylish, appealing and useful accessory. Yep, this headpiece is great for blocking those unwanted sun rays on your face (have I convinced you to join the bandwagon yet?).

Now, because it’s not your average fedora or baseball cap, the hat can be a little tricky to incorporate into your outfit. No worries though, check out how this Fashionista pulled it off. She decided to go for a vintage-themed look by pairing the accessory with a black choker necklace (oh how I miss my childhood), distressed boyfriend jeans and New Balance sneakers. Now, notice how the bucket hat is really colorful compared to the rest of her outfit? This allows the piece to truly stand out and give her whole look a statement.

Welcome the ’90s back into your wardrobe, and have fun with incorporating the awesome accessories from the time!
