Early 2000s Fashion Looks: What Were We Thinking?

Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears

Ahhh the early 2000s! What a time to be alive. Let's take a look back in time, shall we?

The fact that no one on Christina's style team thought to themselves, "Do you think she may regret this look one day?" is astonishing. We aren't sure what's worse, the hair, the purse, or the velvet cut-out dress? We guess when it comes down to it, the makeup! At least we know she went home that night and told herself, "You are beautiful, no matter what they say."

Cameron Diaz

Okay, a lot to unpack here! First of all, we aren't sure burgundy and sky blue are a match made in heaven. Secondly, the embroidered rose placement and blazer just don't make sense! Thirdly, WHY would anyone wear this to the Golden Globes? This look is two pizza-toed kitten heels down!

Gwen Stefani

Like most girls born in the 90s, in our eyes, Gwen Stefani is an icon and a Goddess... but looking back, her fashion choices were more than questionable. Fishnets under knee-length puffed shorts, and her entire torso exposed is one look we are willing to forget. Sorry, Gwen. (We'll take those heels, though.)

Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton was the early 2000's "it" girl, which is surprising considering how utterly tacky her red carpet looks could be. We're pretty sure every girl that wanted to be fashionable succumbed to the lie that satin bomber jackets matched with a newsboy cap was the epitome of fashion.

Pink

Okay, it's hard to say anything bad about Pink, because she is an absolute angel on Earth, but the fact that she literally drew on a full-body tattoo is a testament to how tacky the 2000's were. Also those boots. Also that hair!

Beyoncé

Beyoncé may be a queen, but even she fell victim to the 2000's! The fact that her satin princess gown was matched with a fur neckline is too cringy for us to believe it was truly Queen Bey. Also, why was brown and pink such a look?

If there's anything that screams 2000's, its sequins and pizza-toed heels. While we may secretly (and admittedly shamefully) miss wearing patterned sparkly pants, we have to admit the heels add a certain gag factor that we just can't put our finger on. Or maybe we just don't want to... Next!

Is it just us, or are our eyes burning? Anyone that was alive in 2001 clearly remembers how much we all loved denim on the red carpet, and we're pretty sure that's the reason all millennials need therapy.

Mischa Barton

We can't believe we used to look at Mischa Barton as our #wardrobegoals. Thankfully, the world has gathered more taste and got rid of the idea that bootleg jeans and halter dresses were two peas in a pod.

The early 2000's gave us some iconic memories, from every piece of technology being see-through, the first iPhone, to every song featuring Timbaland, one thing we can be thankful for is leaving the fashion trends in the past! These are the red carpet looks from the 2000's we're glad to forget!

Enjoy!
