T.M. Vintage

Reaching as far back as Ancient Rome the shoe we refer to as Mules carried a status symbol. Due to extreme impracticality you can imagine only those living lavish, luxurious life styles could wear them. In fact, in Ancient Rome only the three highest elected officials were allowed to wear mules (at the time flat, closed toed, backless). Talk about exclusive. Not until the 18th century would Mules appear in the fashion world. They maintained their status symbol thanks to their impractical design, attracting wealthy women. Somewhere along the line mules lost their status symbol when prostitutes began wearings them. However, like many trends they were bound to make a comeback. Who better to set a trend than the iconic Marilyn Monroe. She brought mules to their height in the 1950's. The past 60 years mules have come and gone. Now they're back! We've seen them throughout the year, but they're entering fall with a pointed toe and new colors. Are you a fan of the mule?

I am loving the nostalgia the 90's trend has brought me. I love seeing how the fashion industry takes trends from past decades and innovates them into something modern. Chances are, you're here because you want to find the perfect 90's inspiration for your wardrobe! *Disclaimer: There are affiliate links in this post that help monetize my blog**  Today I took 8  outfits from 5 iconic characters of the 90's and found similar pieces to recreate their famous looks.  I've taken looks from Rachel & Monica of Friends, Cher from Clueless, Topanga of Boy meets World, and Kelly from Saved by the Bell. You can shop any of the pieces below to recreate a specific look or mix and match for something all your own. Potential for Halloween costumes, too! Who doesn't love a costume made of fashionable pieces they can wear again and again. What's your favorite look from the 90's that's trending right now? I personally love skater
