Low-Rise...ish: While the ultra-low-rise jeans of the early 2000s might not be for everyone, a lower-rise cut is definitely back in style. Opt for a mid-to-low rise on jeans or trousers, pairing them with a fitted top or a cropped sweater to balance the proportions. If you're hesitant, start with a pair that sits just below your natural waist.
Baguette Bags and Playful Accessories: The iconic baguette bag is a must-have for any Y2Kinspired look. Choose one in a vibrant color or with a fun print. Other accessories to consider
include chunky sneakers, butterfly clips, colorfulbeads, and even a statement belt (especially one with a large buckle). These small touches can inject a dose of Y2K fun into any outfit.
A Touch of Crop: Cropped tops, sweaters, and jackets are key to the Y2K aesthetic. Pair a cropped cardigan with high-waisted jeans (if you're not ready for the low-rise trend) or a cropped baby tee with a midi skirt. The key is to show just a hint of skin in a way that feels comfortable and modern. Experiment with different textures and colors to keep the look interesting.
