These 5 Spring Outfits are Giving Us Serious Y2K Energy
After months of winter outfits, warmer spring weather has us in the mood for one thing: less layers! As much as we love them, it's time to embrace the exact opposite of cute puffer jackets, cozy shearlings, and warm tights in favor of our fave Y2K trends. We're ready to dress lighter and brighter in iconic styles from the era. Think: strappy asymmetrical tops and dresses, drapey one-shoulder silhouettes, minimal halters, baggy jeans, and denim skirts. So. much. nostalgia.
The vibes are sporty and sleek in vibrant colors (pretty pinks and tangy orange, please) and earthy neutrals (hello, mocha brown). So, no matter the outfit formula, there's a throwback 'fit that you can toss on in less than five minutes. Ahead, five Y2K combos we're adding to cart — do yourself a favor and get them in your rotation, too.
