Life
Most people tend to cringe a when looking back on old pictures or photos from their yearbook, largely because their style would be considered outdated now. But thanks to the fashion gods, the looks from your '90s childhood have made a comeback in a major way. Though your kids might still laugh at you when you try to convince them you were cool once, too, you'll have the pics to prove you rocked overalls and babydoll dresses since way back. With that in mind, there are plenty of '90s fashion your child should wear. Plus, it'll be a fun trip down memory lane.
To be clear, not everything about the 1990s were great. There were some trends that were awful even when they were first invented. JNCOs and jelly sandals come to mind, but I could be a bit biased since the supposedly fashionable footwear always left me with bloody blisters. Thankfully, for your kids, a lot of the looks from yesteryear have received some definite upgrades and improvements.
Though you don't have to send your child to school looking like they stepped out of a random time machine, decked head to toe in retro '90s gear, you can still incorporate some of the more memorable fads into their wardrobe. So check out these '90s fashion your kid should, like, totally wear.

Hats
Maybe it's just me, but I feel like the '90s really embraced hats more than today's generation. From snapbacks (though we just called them caps in my day) to the over-the-top style popularized on Blossom, hats definitely deserve to make a comeback in your kid's life.

Chokers
Puka shells, hemp, stretchy, studded, and anything you could possibly imagine was fair game when it came to the choker necklaces of the 1990s. Whether you have some swag leftover from your childhood or not, you can introduce your kids to some iconic accessories.

Backpacks
Aside from their school-related function, plenty of folks used backpacks as a fashion statement, adorning them with patches and pins. Give your kids some free reign in the creativity department and have them put their own stamp on the throwback backpack.

Mood Rings
If friendship bracelets symbolized summers in the '90s, then mood rings were the accessory de jour when you compared auras with your classmates. There may not be a whole lot of firm science behind them, but your kids will love experimenting with the spectrum of mood rings.
