- Okay, like this could be a piece of a box,
a green metal square with like a washer in it.
Hi I'm Kristina.
- And I'm Freddie and we're gonna dress
like the year that we were each born in.
(upbeat music)
- I am 19, I barely made the cut in the 2000's.
- I'm 29, I was born in 1990.
(upbeat music)
- When I think of the year 2000,
I really do think of like Britney Spears,
Beyonce, like Destiny's Child.
The low rise jeans, super super super short tops,
crazy belts, platform flip flops.
You guys remember
platform flip flops? - Yes.
- True Religion jeans were really big in 2002.
Juicy Couture tracksuits
- And then the bulky belts, that are like bedazzled.
- Wow, such a good era.
- It was such honestly so good.
I think for me, so there are specific characters
on TV shows that scream out to me.
So it's like, I'm Ashley Banks, Hilary Banks
from Fresh Prince, Denise Huxtable, and really anyone
from The Cosby Show, and into a different world.
Like those are all specific people that I think of
and then items of clothing that they would wear,
I just always think of like the little hats
that roll up here that they just would always throw on
with their little curly like bob, or hair down.
High waisted like slacks and pants.
Very oversized blouses that have a lot of room in them.
Little loafers.
- Loafers, Mary Janes.
It's like all of them.
- Yeah and just cute little, just so cute.
(upbeat music)
In present day, 2020, I would say my personal style
is very funky casual.
Like that's the only way that I really know
how to describe my style.
I wear a lot of like looser clothes,
I really like street wear.
As you can see I love prints.
And I just like to be really comfortable.
- I'm really about like just being comfortable.
Because I spend a lot of time
at school, like working, like doing a lot of things
that I do not wanna be uncomfortable for.
So I like to wear the baggy high waisted jeans,
like the big pants small top type combo, you know.
And like I like a lot of colors as well.
When I'm trying to look good or go to the club
or something, I always end up putting on a blazer.
- That's cute.
- Okay, so are we ready?
- Yeah, let's go.
- Let's go, okay.
(upbeat music)
- So we are here, we're at Buffalo Exchange
in the Valley, and I'm very excited to be here.
- I'm very excited too,
I hope I find something that I'm looking for.
What's essential for my look that I'm going for
is the accessories, so I really hope I can find something.
I'm really excited.
- Yeah, let's do it. - Let's go.
I feel like this rack has a lot of blouses,
I feel like you might be able to find something.
- Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of stuff.
There's also this for example.
It's really cute,
it does remind me maybe a little bit more 80's.
- Yeah know the print I see how the print
in a blouse version could be like 90's.
- Yeah.
- But I feel like it is too short to like
- To actually, 'cause I feel like 90's
is all about oversize, and not super tight crop.
- True, true. - But this is super cute.
- I like that.
- This is an option.
- That is an option, especially if you tie it though.
I feel like if you tie it maybe.
- But is this a little too modern?
- It depends on what you put it with.
Depends how the scarf looks
and how high wasted your pants would be.
- Yeah, it's cute though.
- Do you remember the double tank tops?
- Yes I do, guess I had one. - You were like 10 on the
2000s, right? - Yeah.
- Oh my gosh.
I remember seeing pictures of my mom wearing
like a pink tank top under like a blue tank top
that doesn't match at all
and they're like not lining up at the top.
- Cause if they lined up you were doing it wrong.
- Exactly.
- I feel like this is also a vibe, it's 2000s vibe.
- But that I feel like the neon tank top
is like more easy to recognize.
Okay, like this could work but this is also,
I'm going to date at night rave.
I love this mack too.
- This is cute.
Actually just in general this dress is adorable.
This is also kinda 90s but I think a little bit later on
in the 90s decade.
- Yeah we'd like the turtleneck under chin.
- Yeah like this gives me more like 97.
- Can we talk about how 2000 these shoes are?
Wow the platform.
- Literally I had these, they were my everyday wear.
I am looking at these loafers.
I'm thinking this could be a good option.
I feel like in the 90s they did just like
when they would wear like a high waisted pant and a blouse.
A loafer was like
- Yes the loafer was the class and I like the color too.
It's so neutral.
- Super neutral, I think these could work great.
These are also really cool.
- Yes, I loved the metal heel, so edgy.
- So snazzy.
- I feel like belts are really the most important part
of my look.
- Yeah I agree.
- I really can't see myself pulling off any type
of to classic 2000s without an ugly flashy belt.
Like I just don't see it happening.
I feel like this one would match the outfit better,
but I feel like it's not flashy enough in the sense
of like it's so random and kinda doesn't go
with the outfit.
That's kinda what they were doing on 2000s.
- I kinda feel like we should try both.
- Okay, I'll hold on.
- Yeah, hold on to both.
So this whole section to me screams 90s like I have a hat
that's similar to this.
kinda like the whole like bowler, like this reminds me
of like the shell blossom.
Back in the day where she just like wear these hats.
This is definitely hopefully something
that I can find to go with my outfit.
These headbands are also 90s but now that I'm looking more
at them, they're kinda 2000s.
- It's crazy how just the thickness
of the headband can indicate different time periods.
(upbeat music)
I am so surprised that we actually found a lot of items
that really fit our looks.
- I know, first of all we had to like actually choose
like we had to make decisions.
There so many things we found.
- Some really excited to try all of it on
and see what it looks like.
- Should we go like get these outfits on?
- Yeah let's do it. - All right, let's do it.
(upbeat music)
That is literally the most perfect representation of 1990.
I am really pleased with the way it turned out actually.
The whole outfit was sort of inspired by like a mix
between like Hilary Banks from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
with like the hat, with like a little saved by the bell
as well, the top I got from Buffalo Exchange,
super cute love it.
These pants I had already and then I got
these really cute loafers that actually fit really well.
- That's a cup for life, like yeah, wearing those no matter
what I have like they'll never go out of style.
- Definitely they can't.
- Your scarf is like the perfect touch for it.
Like cherry on top of the outfit like I love it.
- Oh my gosh, thanks girl.
(upbeat music)
- I think it's a good job.
I just feel like the shoes say so much.
Like the shoes really give it away what year it is.
It's crazy.
- Look at this bag.
- I know it's so cute.
- Insane.
- My favorite part I would say is for sure the top.
Like I feel like the top is really representative
of the year 2000 not only am like color in the bedazzle,
but the cut.
The way it's cut, it's like meant to show the size
of your hips and I just think that's so funny
that it's just literally only meant to show your hips.
- Just that sliver because they know the jeans are low rise,
so they know that there will be skin to see.
You also have these earrings on.
- Yes I forgot to mention the earrings.
Literally so random silver bedazzled earrings.
- Yes they love an earring that dropped.
They kinda dangle or chandelier or something like this.
It's super indicative.
All right, so you're gonna go around the office
and see if people can guess what year your outfits, right?
- Yes, I'm very excited.
- Okay I'm wishing you all the best.
- Okay let's go.
- Okay it's a warm, check out my look.
- Okay.
- Okay, hey Lence.
- Hi.
- I miss you.
- I miss you more.
- Based on my outfit,
what year do you think I am dressed as?
- I feel like you are.
- So can you guess what specific year I'm dressed from?
This is my look.
- I would say.
- Feels like Britney Spears era.
- The shirt almost feels,
I don't wanna say 50s but like you know what I mean?
It's like very old vintage.
- Yeah that's true. - Do you know what I mean?
And these pants could even be like a 60s moment,
but I feel like all together I'm feeling 80s or 90s.
- 2002.
- I wanna go 1992.
- Why?
- You know I'm just getting kinda 90s vibe from it.
I'm not exactly sure what year but.
- Can say 1999 or 2001.
- Based on what?
- This was huge.
Just like that kinda montana style and then also just like
the boot cut jeans, the platform shoes.
Yeah, it just feels like something I wore when I was not,
it was not age appropriate.
- Which specific year.
- 1989, I don't know.
- You actually very close.
- Really?
- 1990, yeah.
- Cute.
- Exactly super close.
- I'm gonna go with 2001.
- 1991.
- Closer.
- 1990.
- I'm dressing the year 2000 so basically very close.
- I'm two years off. - Thank you
- You're not far off.
- Really? - It's 1990.
- You are really close.
I'm dressed as the year 2000 so
- We are in the middle. - Yeah.
- So this is where I was left hanging.
It's funny.
- So how was your experience?
- I had a really good time.
Like I honestly had so much more fun than I thought I was.
Well, of course I thought it was gonna be fun,
but like I love clothes.
I love dressing up.
I love shopping.
I love everything that has to do with clothes,
and this was just like really in my element.
I just really enjoyed it.
- Yes, same.
I thought this was super fun.
I honestly didn't think it would be as much of a challenge
for me just because I feel like I already have like a lot
of items at home that are pretty 90s trendy,
but it actually was a little bit more tough
than I anticipated especially when it came to the blouse.
Are you ready to return to 2020?
- I am ready.
I missed my phone a little bit.
I miss her.
- I think it's time.
