Style Obituary

As we all know, nothing in life is permanent. This is proven by every fashion trend that has come and gone. With a new decade just beginning, we’re taking the time to honor past trends that made a huge impact on our wardrobe choices. The 2000’s had some iconic trends over the years that shaped our styles today. We must sadly say goodbye to some important pieces that are gone now, but will never truly be forgotten.

First up, chokers. Chokers were a huge accessory in the early 2000’s, all A-list celebs finished their looks with a simple but impactful choker.

Hilary Duff is a huge figure of the early 2000s who wore this piece a lot. The accessory made a short reappearance in 2016, but sadly this is where we say our goodbyes to the once iconic piece of neckwear.

The short lived but impactful company of the feather hair extension deserves the next spot in our obituary. If you denied walking out of your house at least once with feather hair extensions in 2011, you’d be lying. Celebrities rocked them all over, from the streets to the red carpets. The feathers came in all different shapes and sizes to accompany whatever look you were going for. Thank you feather hair extensions for adding something new to our daily hairstyles.

Finally, we honor the truly iconic Juicy tracksuit popularized by celebs like Paris Hilton and Britney Spears. Everyone, and I mean everyone, strutted the streets in head to toe Juicy. From bright pink to sky blue, whatever your favorite color is, there was a Juicy suit for you. Kylie Jenner blessed us with a quick throwback to the Juicy suits in 2016, which we were all here for. Thank you Juicy tracksuits for being comfortable yet trendy.

Trends in the fashion world are constantly evolving to reach new standards and break established boundaries. Old trends are always reappearing in new ways, so who knows if these trends will make their comeback years from now. For now we lay these pieces to rest and thank them for shaping our early style choices.
