    Gen-X here. I would like to know who in our generation decided to let their kids (Gen-Z) raid their closet. Yesterday alone I saw multiple teen girls wearing 90’s era mommy pants and two, TWO, girls wearing MC Hammer parachute pants!!! Neither of these was ever cool!

    Millennials. If our kids give you grief, just remember that they thought it was a good idea to bring back parachute pants.

      The last pics or videos I saw of everything “cool” (VIPs, gen Z stuff like interviews, festival pics,…) felt like old 90 stuff. I really thought they were old but no, it was stuff from about 1-2 weeks ago. Why is stuff like hair styles and make up also the same as it was years ago?

      I literally saw a 12 year old the other day wearing a “Boyz in tha Hood” shirt, like, do you even know what movies are?

      I kinda miss the bell bottom revival of the early 2000’s. Not the late 90’s “equilateral triangle from the knees down” look our big sisters did; I always liked the “just enough bell bottom that the tip of her shoes poke out.” I always thought that was a cute look.
