Y2K FASHION: THE RISE, FALL AND RESSURECTION
I think one of the most mind blowing fashion trends I’ve lived through so far is the rise, fall and resurrection of Y2K fashion. With Gen Z now paving the way of what is cool and trendy, my mid 2000s cast offs have become more chic than me. I certainly didn’t think I’d see my clothing go full circle by the ripe old age of 26 yet here we are. I didn’t even like the clothes at the time so it’s incredibly painful to see it all come back around to haunt me. It’s even more agonising knowing that my very own OG Y2K items are probably sat in a landfill somewhere and I am once again forking out to keep on trend. I mean it wasn’t all bad. I do always remember being so jealous of my sister as she stored twice as many sweets as me in her combat trouser pockets as a child.
So what’s made a surprising comeback?

SISTER SHACK X CATCALL
Recently we joined the wonderful Sister Shack at Newcastle Student Union for our first market stall in MONTHS. Not only were we trying to get back into the swing of things but also trying to keep up with the immense competition from all the other fabulous female creators. I mean, I’d expect nothing less from a Sister Shack Market. And you know what they say, if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em. So here’s a little peak at some of our favourite stalls…
One Night Only: An Ode to the Girl's Bathroom
The standard night out. A pastime with a startling propensity to be more or less exactly the same every time you choose to partake. It is as if there is a checklist to be followed, certain rules to abide by.
