Many of us can agree that lockdown affected more than just our social lives — it deeply influenced our wardrobes. Now that restrictions have (finally) lifted, gone are the days of wearing the same pair of joggers 24/7. As the world begins to open up, we're witnessing a surge in outgoing and zesty fashion trends — many of which are revivals of years past. One that's really gaining traction? Y2K, or — in layman's terms — Year 2000.

According to a recent Pinterest study, searches for "Y2K outfit ideas" are up 230x and the trending hashtag #y2koutfits is taking over TikTok with over 80.1M views (and counting!). For those who are having a difficult time remembering what exactly the aughts looked like, or for those who weren't even around yet, think: baggy jeans, crop tops, square sunglasses, baguette bags, velour tracksuits . . . the list goes on.

In case you need help pulling off the look, keep scrolling to see how TikTokers are sporting the trend, and shop similar pieces for yourself.

Eager to channel the Y2K aesthetic but don't know where to start? This is an easy-to-execute look you're bound to wear on repeat.
