If you’re a ’90s kid, congratulations! You just grew up in THE best decade ever! Simply speaking, it was a time when everything and everyone was cool and carefree. No wonder it gave birth to such awesome fashion, music, movies and innovations. And in a society that functioned without smartphones, Whatsapp and social media, we were busy listening to cassettes, watching Disney or playing dad’s ‘cool’ mobile phone games. Sounds like a million years ago and yet, feels like it was just yesterday, doesn’t it?
Given a chance, I’d do ANYTHING to go back and re-live that era once again. And I know you wouldn’t think twice, too. But since nobody’s building a time machine for us anytime soon (just as disappointed as you) – these awesome products will give you an essence of the ’90s! Are you ready for a trip down memory lane?

Have Some Fun In A Cool, Denim Dungaree!
As a kid, I specifically remember disliking THIS piece of layering on my clothes. But whether I liked it or not, my mom always forced me to wear it – simply, because she believed I looked too “adorable” in it. Finally, a decade later, I realised how right she was. It did look super cute back then and would still do if paired with some cool, funky top and a pair of sneakers. Don’t you think so, too?

Step Up Your ‘Game’ With This Ultimate Cover!
Gameboy was one rage that had spread like a wildfire among kids in the ’90s. The timeless dialogue, “Kitna khelti rahegi? Bus bhi kar.” still rings in my mind every time I come across a recollection of this awesome game. Not only was it popular among boys but girls were exceptionally pros at it too. So, if you’ve been a Gameboy addict at some point in your life, this phone cover should be one of your prized possessions from the best times in your ’90s.

Add A Little Funk With These Stick-on Earrings!
These colourful, little stick-on’s were known to sparkle and make all those girls *extremely* happy who got their ears pierced a bit later than others. All you had to do was choose a pair, see if it complimented your outfit (ask mummy, in other words) and stick it right in the centre of your ear. But you did that ’cause you didn’t wait for anyone’s approval to look pretty and amazing, didn’t you? So, why not follow the same mantra now?
