Viva Forever Fashion Spice!

"Whether to wear the little Gucci dress, the little Gucci dress, or...the little Gucci dress!"

Ah that quote from Spice World will forever and always be music to my ears. As a 90s' child, the Spice Girls were musical legends and fashion icons for me. My five year old self didn't know much about life back then but I was strongly devoted to two things: my disastrous fashion sketches and Ginger Spice aka my long distance soul sister. I wanted nothing more than to ride in a big red tour bus, wear a Union Jack dress, and talk in a strong annunciated British accent. Now with the Spice Girls reunion and musical around the corner, I couldn't help but take a blast to the past on the girls golden fashion moments and reflect on how they've influenced today's fashion. (BTW- hope this isn't too inappropriate to celebrate the British on America's Independence day...whoops?)

The Crop Tops

The style that was once iconic for female fashion pop-stars has regained popularity in 2012. The Spice Girls were never ones to shy away from midriff bearing outfits and the flashy trend has continued to spice up a girl's fashion today! (and yes the lyrical references are only beginning)

The Shoes

From the platform sneakers and boots to Posh's scrappy heals, was their footwear ever not gaining major attention?! The eye-catching footwear was never really a fading style for the fashion or the girls. Less extreme platform sneakers and high stilettos could not be more popular. And true to her fashionista reputation, Victoria is still always sporting the newest and hottest Louboutins. 

Long Live the Glitter

When the Spice girls reunited in 2007(bless the pop gods for this magical tour), it was like the girls never left their glittery and colorful costumes! Despite their maturing lifestyles, the ladies showed that their bold, girl power fashion statements were always here to stay.
