Eating out at any chain restaurant (Olive Garden, Texas Roadhouse, Applebee’s etc.)

The pair of Abercrombie jeans I bought with my babysitting money when I was 16.

Honestly just shopping at malls in general since the closest one for us was about a 90 minute drive, so it was a huge deal to get to go.

Staying at hotels, even a best western by an interstate. If it had a pool and continental breakfast, it was boujee lmao

The knockoff coach and LV purses sketchy vendors sold at festivals.

Getting Starbucks on field trips to the local college bc it was the only place there was one within a 50 mile radius at that time

Coming home from vacation with cornrows and a henna tattoo (and trying to convince the other 12 year olds at the city pool that it was real)

When my parents upgraded from the local cable company to Dish Network and we finally had Cartoon Network, MTV, and Toon Disney

Also when they finally got rid of the 90s blue carpet and floral couches and replaced everything with ~Tuscan kitchen~ vibes lmao
