... Read moreLooking back at 2016 fashion really brings a wave of nostalgia and inspiration. I personally loved how chokers became the go-to accessory back then. It was amazing how such a simple piece could instantly elevate any outfit, from casual day looks to evening wear. The resurgence of bomber jackets was another standout trend. They added a cool, edgy vibe to just about everything, whether layered over a plain tee or paired with a tennis skirt for a sporty yet chic twist. Matte lipsticks also made a huge statement in 2016. I remember spending hours trying different shades from deep reds to nude tones, all while appreciating the long-lasting, velvety finish that was perfect for every occasion. The flatform shoes were quite the game changer too — giving height and comfort in one stylish package. Pairing those flatform sandals with tennis skirts was my go-to look during the warmer months. Off-the-shoulder tops added a flirty and feminine touch that balanced out the edgier pieces like chokers and bombers. It was exciting how these trends combined to reflect a unique youthful spirit that’s still influencing fashion today. If you’re trying to capture some of that 2016 magic now, mixing these elements can create fresh, retro-inspired outfits with a modern twist. Whether you incorporate a sleek matte lipstick or throw on a classic choker, these fashion staples bring personality and confidence to your everyday style. Which 2016 trend resonates with you the most?

My favorite outfits from this week
Item ID included!! After working in retail, my style had gotten better. Not significantly but enough. Sometimes I just put on something comfy and other times I dress up. But I'm always on a budget. The pacsun jeans I got were on sale for 29.99. The tube top is on sale for 5 bucks right now!
