The Jumper

"Talk to me, Goose." If you've got the need...the need for speed, that is, then this one's for you. But fair warning: if you leave the aviators at home, then you might as well forget it. Why? Because the Danger Zone requires them and that's a fact.

The Basics

Summer is not Summer, nor is the 4th of July a proper 4th without a classic graphic tee and a pair of iconic cutoffs. And of course, a bottle of coca-cola is indeed an acceptable accessory to such an outfit as this.

More like 20-90's Abigail Morse If you were of fan of the 90's, or if, like some, you weren't quite old enough (or alive enough) to partake, then get ready, because "it all comes back around," as the fashion experts like to say. Here at Kariella, we've picked out our top ten 90's-inspired trends that'll either give you major throwback, or else welcome you to one of the most iconic eras in fashion history.
The Floral Summer Dress
There's no better way to greet the 90's than with the perfect chiffon summer dress adorned with rosy embroidery. Wear this as a stand-alone piece or with a cropped tee underneath, then top it off with a stretchy choker and a pair of platforms to complete the look.
Paradise Maxi, €128
Shop Here
The Cut-offs
We're not being exclusive here. Any item you can take a pair of scissors to will do. After all, grunge was born in the 90's. Here, we've found the perfect pair of washed denim shorts and added in a graphic muscle tee, the ultimate cut-off experience.
Northfield Tank, €44

Sofia Short, €68

The Swim Suit
Because showing off just one of our 90's inspired swimsuits wasn't enough, we gave you options. And while bright colors were a fashion trend back in the day, so were the ever-famous pinks, baby blues, and lavenders. Whether you're a one-piecer or a bikini kinda gal, you'll fit right in with either one. Throw into the mix your most formidable scrunchie and you'll be good to go.
Kim Top, €118

 Victoria One Piece, €184

The Mom Jeans
"Ugh, those are jeans my mom would wear." Well in that case, hand 'em over. We've paired that classic look with a button-up front to give it a little extra flare. And what are mom jeans without a bit of distress? We got that covered too.
Blossom Rigid Skinny, €78
Shop Here
Cannes Tank, €32

The Silk Cami
Silk and satin were a hit back in the day. But then, when have they ever not been a hit? This ever-lingering staple is a must-have for any outfit, and the 90's had a particular influence over the silk cami that fashion experts still cling to today: how to make it wearable for the everyday outfit. Well, it turns out it was easy. Just throw your favorite t-shirt underneath and voila!
Stripe Tease Cami, €62
The Overalls
If there's one thing that'll give you major 90's throwback, we guarantee it'll be this. Overalls have made a huge comeback. Thus, we chose this classic loose-fitting overall with a distressed leg to add some texture to the look. And if you really want to plunge back into the 90's, go ahead and let loose one of those straps to reveal your favorite graphic tee beneath.
Edera Overall, €118
Shop Here
The Strappy Mini
Watch any 90's romcom and you'll find every variation of the spaghetti strap mini imaginable. But here's a news flash: we're still at it! Because why get rid of such an obvious favorite when it's still alive and kicking?
Thank you, 90's. We salute you.
Bora Bora Mini, €92

The Cropped Top
What would a 90's tribute be without a cropped tee sporting that oh-so-famous round neckline? Well, here you go. This one's for you.
Laporte Tank, €44

The Mini Skirt
The go-to item for any outfit, this classic piece will serve you well. Keep with the 90's trend and pair this with a striped tee like so.
Modern Femme Skirt, €50

Sienna Tank, $€52

The Leopard Print Staple
We weren't going to let you leave without equipping you with one of fashion history's favorites. And the 90's were no exception. In fact, I think we can agree that, while leopard print was far from new at the time, it was certainly reborn in styles we still don today. Once again, we thank you, 90's.

At Kariella, we’ve gone ahead and done the research on all the hottest trends so you don’t have to! Simply sit back, relax, and be ready to 'ooh and aah' at all the items we picked out for you. We guarantee you’ll look ravishing in them.

 


Neutrals

The more the merrier! Whether it’s a single statement piece, or fully head-to-toe, there’s no such thing as too much natural color this Spring.

Penthouse Jumpsuit, €78

 


Scarf-Print Patterns

We're seeing loads of scarves hit the runway this Spring, though none of them are worn around the neck. Apparently, that's terribly last-season. It's now the sporting style to wear these patterns everywhere but on the scarves themselves, and so far, it seems to be working out quite swimmingly.

Border Babe Bodysuit, €58


Pale Blue & Ruffles

Pastel blues are in, as are regal ruffles wherever we can spare them. You can wear them separately if you want, though we took the liberty of pairing them together for the perfect springtime look.

Hallock Tee, €48

Shop Here

Bold Prints

...particularly where orange is concerned. For all those sparkling individuals looking to make a statement, look no further than this poppin’ floral maxi dress. It also features those pale blues we shared, along with one more color trending big this Spring. If you can't guess what it is, just keep on scrolling.

Rainforest Dress, €92

Shop Here

Dots, Dots, And...

...that's right - more dots! This classic style just got even classier. And don’t be afraid to mix things up a bit. One chic dotted-print is fine, but why have only one when you can have a couple more instead?

Amalfi One Piece, €206

Shop Here

Magenta

You guessed it! Magenta is the trending pop of color this Spring. Or if you're looking to go a smidge softer, a little lavender never hurt anybody. Both are the talk of the town, so go ahead and pick the one you like the best, or wear them both together in this stunning boho maxi dress.

Pour the chardonnay, it’s time to slip into some elegance with our romantic Juliet Blouse. Ruched at the waist, cinched at the wrists, with an adjustable V-neck you can cater to your own level of seduction, you’ll positively shine while wearing it.

Honey Mini, €250

Why give a teddy bear when you can wear the bear instead? Guaranteed, nothing says 'hold me' like a long bit of faux fur draped around your shoulders. Warm and cozy for you, irresistibly cuddly for whomever you're looking to slip their arms around you. This alluring, rosy-hued Monaco Coat works every time.
