“I love you and I always will and I am sorry. What a useless word.”

1. Bling and Fur ♡

The Bratz always had either rhinestones, glitter, Diamondz, or fur somewhere in their outfits. It could be jewelry, shoes, bags, anywhere. These details add a feminine, fashionable, and confident touch to any outfit. I personally love bling in the warmer months and fur in the winter, but there are no rules as long as you’re comfortable.

2. Textures, Layers, and Prints ♡

The Bratz ensembles were popular for the use of ruffles, tulle, and mesh. Along with leather, zippers where they weren’t necessary and laces. Also prints like animal, or houndstooth were a statement, especially in the early days of Bratz. Try adding a jacket or tights under your shorts or skirt for an extra put together look.

3. Heeled Boots and Sandals ♡

Name how many times you’ve seen Sasha, Yasmin, Jade or Cloe in flats. I can barely remember any. They stayed in a pair of pumps or high heeled boots. Heels were made just for women so these pieces pack an extremely feminine punch to the simplest of outfits. (Aldo, MissLola, Nordstrom, Shein, UGG, Amina Muaddi, Public Desire, YSL)

4. Mini Dresses and Skirts ♡

Just like heels, skirts were designed for ladies. Try pretty mini skirts or dresses. They don’t have to be super short, but show off your legs. Pro tip: your legs and hips look even better when wearing heels, so pair some chunky heels with a skirt you have in your closet. (SHEIN, Nordstrom, PLT)

5. Statement Accessories ♡

MY FAV PART. Please, don’t skip out on accessorizing. Buy some hats, belly chain, big hoops, shades, the whole nine. Add some fun, pretty purses to your closet. Aldo and Ted Baker have affordable pieces of you’re on a budget. Buy clutches also, I have a Fendi one I just got and love. You’ll never see me without a purse and a pair of earrings in my ears, usually hoops. They don’t have to be big, but you’ll definitely draw eyes. (Tory Burch, LacebyTanaya, D.

6. Halters and Crop Tops ♡

This is just a staple for early 2000s fashion. I love the way crop tops make my waist look and halter tops tend to give women a very confident, modelesque look in my opinion. (Fashion Nova, Jorden Dime, I.AM.GIA, ROMWE, HONEYBUM, Sorella, Hidden Cult)

7. Flared Pants and Low Rise Jeans ♡

I have found my love for bell bottoms and flared jeans again recently. They’re such a stand out piece. Along with low rise jeans. Very very early 2000s video girl. I love low rise because they highlight your hips. Bratz wore flare nearly whenever they wore jeans. Women who wear these exude trendsetter in my eyes because this is the era of “high waist skinnies.” (Fashion Nova, Levi, MissMe, PLT)
