Chokers have been all the rage lately. Celebs like Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid have been rocking the newfound choker trend, and suddenly, they're appearing everywhere in trendy stores like Urban Outfitters and Topshop.

You remember flare jeans! Theses jeans are skinny in the thighs and wide legged starting at the knees. This early 2000s staple is making a huge comeback - bonus points for ripped, low rise denim - you basically just walked out of 2003!

3. Off-the-shoulder tops and dresses

Goodbye one shoulder tops/dresses and hello off-shoulder! Stores have been putting a modern spin on this early 2000s trend but we haven't forgotten its roots.

4. Lace-up tops

Yassss. The early 2000s was full of the intricate lace-up neckline and now it's back, y'all.

5. Bucket hats

Bucket hats were the cherry on top of a good early '00s outfit... and now just think of all the possibilities you have with this trend making its way back into the fashion world.

6. Denim on denim (on denim!)

If Beyonce's daring to bring back denim on denim... you know its cool.

7. Trucker hats

Ashton Kutcher in his trucker hat is forever engrained in my heart. Kylie Jenner has been bringing back the trucker hat trend and they've been popping up everywhere lately.

8. That deep, deep V neck

It's time to take the plunge again.

9. Athleisure

Oh, you remember the good old velour tracksuit! The athleisure trend - where people make athletic wear fashionable - isn't going anywhere. Missy Elliott's new jam "WTF (Where They From)" had the singer rocking a variety of chic athletic wear throughout the video. Plus, the tracksuit made a comeback on the Spring 2016 runway, so except to see it pop up again. Don't pretend you're not excited.

10. Fishnets

Everyone wore these mesh tights with skirts and dresses in the early '00s. While some may think they're a bit, um, slutty, they actually looked super chic and glamorous on the 2016 runway.

What's your favorite 2000s trend making a comeback?
