Okay, so I was digging through some old photos the other day, and it got me thinking about how we used to dress back in 2008. It’s kinda wild to see how much things have changed, right?

My 2008 Fashion Journey
I remember 2008 being all about that preppy style. I went and got a bunch of plaid shirts, button-ups, and even some neckties. Oh, and cropped vests! I was really into that look for a while. I even got some suspenders which I thought looked so cool.
I started wearing these outfits to school, to the mall, just about everywhere. I felt like I was part of a trend, you know? I saw a lot of other people dressed similarly. I think it was because some celebrities were rocking that style, too. I recall seeing that girl group, The Pussycat Dolls, wearing stuff like that. They looked really cool.
I experimented a bit more. I found these oversized V-neck sweaters and paired them with turtlenecks underneath. Then, I’d put on some leggings and slouch socks. For shoes, I mostly wore Keds. I wore this type of outfit quite often. It was super comfy, and I thought it looked pretty good.

- Experimented with oversized sweaters and turtlenecks.
- Rocked leggings with slouch socks and Keds.
I kept this up for a good chunk of the year. It was fun to try out different styles and see what worked. Looking back, it’s cool to see how my style has evolved. But hey, 2008 fashion was a vibe, and I enjoyed it while it lasted!
