9 Pieces Of Fashion Advice We'd Give Our 2008 Selves

A decade ago, saw the release of the first Sex and the City movie (they should have left it there), Britney's amazing comeback and Barack Obama become President of the US. What were the rest of us doing? We were absolutely stylin', that's what. Let's rewind and pretend we could give our past selves some advice on the 2008 fashion trends. What pearls of wisdom would we come out with?

1. Belts can be worn for function - a moment's silence for belts that were larger than life

2. Auditioning for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? If so, you look faaab! (Life was spread in fake tan)

3. You don't have to wear your Maxi dress to everything - whether it was a BBQ or a visit to see your granny in hospital, the Maxi dress came out in full force.

4. Own a pair of these? Not all heroes wear capes

5. Since tops and dresses with plunging necklines are all the rage you may as well get your boobs out while it's fashionable

6. Don't buy too many pairs of those gladiator sandals, you won't need them for much longer...

  

7. The only place for that hippy headband is at a festival or a full moon party in Thailand

8. While that baby doll top did look cute on you, we're struggling to understand who let you out of the house wearing it with baggy jeans...

9. If you don't have just one shoulder out than what are you even doing here? Short formal sack dresses were the rage to be fair.
