If you haven’t noticed, the late ‘90s/Y2K resurgence has taken over everyone’s wardrobe this summer. From micro-mini skirts to bandeau tops and baggy cargo pants – denim overalls are the next throwback trend you will be seeing around. ‘90s fashion finds itself as both effortless and comfortable, which is why overalls seem to be the best fit for this oncoming trend.

Overalls are the new boyfriend jeans. It is a wardrobe piece that eliminates the struggle to decide on what top matches best with your bottoms and the stress of outfit coordination. The iconic one-piece can be dressed with a baby tee, bralette or a printed top. It is a one-and-done piece that can practically be worn with anything in your closet. The style is more comfortable than jeans, considering that the bottoms are much looser and the waistlines are wider – it's totally ideal for summer. When traveling on a scooter, bicycle, or van hire, this style of clothing is the most comfortable and gives freedom of movement.

While the overall denim style rocks in summer, it is equally intimidating for winter and other seasons. Pairing overall with a blazer, long coat, or an aviator jacket is one eye-catching style of the 90s that gained popularity amongst many celebrities and fashion junkies. When you’re out and about on a chilly winter night, styling overall with a chic jacket would give you the right amount of warmth and comfort while maintaining your flair.

Some of the most iconic remembered outfits come from celebrities in the ‘90s/Y2K era such as Jennifer Aniston as Rachel Green, Destiny’s Child in Tommy Hilfiger and Brittany Murphy’s patchwork dress in “Uptown Girls.”
