Though I was born in the 80s, my memories don't really kick in until the 90s. The 90s are the years I spent imagining fairies lived in the woods behind my house, playing Mario Kart with my cousins and watching T.G.I.F. with my sister. Ahhh, the good old days.
I remember collecting jelly pens, those beaded bracelets and all things Lisa Frank, so when my sister told me about a Lisa Frank clothing line, I got, admittedly, a little too excited. However, it got me thinking about all the other things I used to love in the 90s and that put me on a hunt - a hunt for fit fashion, and so today, I bring you Fit & Fashionable Friday, 90s Style!
I started Googling away about all things 90s and discovered a bunch of shirts I think every 90s kid will appreciate. So hop into your time machine and let's get this Fit & Fashionable Party started!
Of course, I had to start things off with Lisa. I'm slightly obsessed with this crop top and wouldn't hesitate to wear it to the gym or to a good 90s night. The sizing seems small, so I'm not entirely sure this top is made for adults, but I really really want them to make it so.
2. Bayside Tigers Sweat Shirt
Remember when Mario Lopez was AC Slater, Zack Morris was the apple of every teeny-boppers eye, and everyone was jealous of Kelly Kapowski? Le sigh. Can we also talk about how Tori was totally not as good as Kelly and Jessie? What were you thinking, Saved by the Bell? Anywho, after the series ended, I used to watch reruns as I got ready for high school in the morning, and I absolutely would have rocked this sweatshirt had I had it. B-b-b-b-b-b-BAYSIDE!
FRIENDS was home to some of the best TV lines of all time. Don't believe me?
He's her lobster.
We were on a break!
Oh... my... gawd!
Actually, it's Ms. Chanadaler Bong
How you doin?
Pivot!
Smelly cat, smelly cat, what are they feeding you?
Case in point. One of the best lines from the shoe can be found on this amazing t-shirt. Oh, Matt LaBlanc, if only you didn't try to do that crappy spin off...
Remember when MTV actually played music? TRL was the can't-miss afternoon show. I remember Carson Daly with his black nail polish and getting together with friends after school to make sure we didn't miss the premiere of any new N'Sync video. YouTube didn't exist yet, so if you didn't catch it on TV, you were SOL. I would have done anything to go into the city and be on TRL, and I 100% would have bought this shirt had I done so.
5. Chillin Out Maxin Tank
I'm pretty sure I still know every word to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air theme song. Will Smith was bomb in that show, and we all loved to be annoyed by Carlton. I would have worn this tank back then and I would absolutely still wear it now.
Any other Mario Kart fans out there? The N-64 version was the best. Hands down. My sister and could play for hours and whenever we got together with all of our cousins, it was one big tournament! Will and I have actually been contemplating buying an N-64 just so we can play Mario Kart again. Maybe I should settle for this less expensive shirt instead...
Feeling nostalgic yet? I sure hope so. If anyone feels like getting me any one of these shirts, you'll get friend points for life. Friend points or no friend points, you should link up for Fit & Fashionable Friday! Full link up rules here.
