The aughts weren't too far back. In fact, Dawson’s Creek, Blink-182, and Abercrombie & Fitch are still pretty fresh in our memories. But perhaps what is truly unforgettable about the 2000s is its colorful explosion of style and sartorial choices that still govern us today. So here are five fashion fads from the early noughties that we can update and still wear now:
Tracksuits
Athleisure remains to be a big trend nowadays. And with the comeback of the aughts, we’re reminded of the tracksuits from adidas. Wear this plush outfit with structured clothes to keep it street style chic.

Fish nets
No one can deny the aughts made fishnets acceptable as a piece of clothing. It used to be worn only by alt punks, but now it’s more polished as it comes in different colors and incorporated with other fabrics.
