We would really mix the worst possible patterns and textures together, then throw on knockoff Uggs, North Face fleeces, and Burberry scarves — and think we looked good doing it!!!
64 Things We Thought Were Reallyyyyyy Cool To Wear In 2012 That Would Be Super Weird To Wear In 2022
1. First off…Uggs. Almost always paired with leggings. And almost always in this exact color.
M. Caulfield / WireImage for Nancy Davis via Getty Images4. Bedazzling was unfortunately a common trend overall.
Bobby Bank / WireImage via Getty Images5. Or glitter. Especially in the shape of a skull. Skulls were big, I don’t know why.
Jerritt Clark / Getty Images6. Peace symbols were also really big in 2012.
Danny Martindale / FilmMagic via Getty Images7. But we can’t talk about the fall of 2012 without talking about the sweaters. Like the class white cable-knit that would, many years later, be brought back by one Mr. Chris Evans.
James Devaney / WireImage via Getty Images8. Or its sister, the chunky oversized cardigan.
Brian Killian / FilmMagic via Getty Images9. Or its cousin, the long waterfall cardigan.
Tim P. Whitby / Getty Images10. Or its niece, the weird batwing cardigan.
Charley Gallay / WireImage via Getty Images11. If you were truly participating in Christian Girl Autumn, tall brown leather boots were a must.
Bunny, PacificCoastNews.com / Avalon12. We also loved our suede boots.
Michael Tran / FilmMagic via Getty Images13. You also needed a classic Christian Girl Autumn hat, like a pom-pom hat…
thenorthface.com14. Or one of these bad boys.
shoppriceless.com15. Bonus point if you matched your hat, purse, and boots.
Charles Eshelman / FilmMagic via Getty Images16. You’d be remiss to forget your fake Burberry scarf.
Ray Tamarra / GC Images via Getty Images17. Or your handy infinity scarf.
Kevin Mazur / WireImage via Getty Images18. We talked about pom-pom hats, but the real 2012 staple was the classic beanie.

20. Like phone cases.
poshmark.com21. Or earrings. Most likely from Claire’s.
poshmark.com22. Though when we didn’t have an actual accessory, we made do by just drawing one on our finger in sharpie during third period.
Peopleimages / Getty Images23. Another accessory we loved in fall 2012? Feathers. Don’t ask me why. Feather print, silver feather necklaces, actual feather earrings…they were on everything.
Anita Bugge / WireImage via Getty Images24. Another fall 2012 star? Plaid button-ups, ESPECIALLY in teal.
Jb Lacroix / WireImage via Getty Images25. Or red — and often tied around your waist.
Jerod Harris / WireImage via Getty Images26. A beanie, skull skirt, plaid shirt together??? This outfit checks every 2012 box.
Gregg Deguire / WireImage via Getty Images27. I can’t believe we haven’t mentioned skinny jeans yet. As soon as the temperature dropped below 75, it was time for jeans tighter than spandex.
GVK / HM / GC Images via Getty Images28. Or jeans *literally* made of leggings — AKA, the dreaded jeggings.
Mauricio Santana / Getty Images29. Skinny jeans and jeggings had a chokehold on us. We loved them in gray, especially.
Alo Ceballos / FilmMagic via Getty Images30. Also red.
Chelsea Lauren / WireImage via Getty Images31. We also loved them patterned.
Michael Loccisano / Getty Images32. And metallic.
Mark Von Holden / WireImage via Getty Images33. The tightness didn’t just apply to jeans, jeggings, and leggings, either. We loved plaid pants that literally made it hard for us to move.
Kevin Mazur / WireImage via Getty Images34. And faux leather pants that squeaked when we walked.
Mike Pont / FilmMagic via Getty Images35. This was also the era of literally just wearing thin leggings as pants.
Andrew H. Walker / Getty Images36. This was okay, because we usually had awkwardly long shirts that covered our crotches.
Jesse Grant / WireImage via Getty Images37. Though some just had asymmetrical hems.
GVK/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images via Getty Images38. We loved to accessorize with a lil’ blazer in a statement color.
Imeh Akpanudosen / Getty Images For NYLON39. Or the classic green military jacket.
Shaun Mader / Patrick McMullan / Patrick McMullan via Getty Images40. Bonus points if it had sewn-on Army patches.
Jacopo Raule / Getty Images41. Or if it was literally just in camo.
Jason Kempin / Getty Images for the Global Citizen Festival)42. We also just loved military jackets. I blame Taylor Swift’s marching band outfit from her Red tour.
John Phillips / Getty Images43. But you really couldn’t go wrong with this specific jean jacket, probably from Old Navy.
Neilson Barnard / WireImage for Sunglass Hut via Getty Images44. Once the weather started getting colder, though, you couldn’t be caught dead without your North Face fleece.
thenorthface.com45. If you really wanted to dress to impress for the first day of school, you’d throw on a statement necklace that covered half of your chest.
Dominique Charriau / WireImage via Getty Images46. We loved a good lil’ sheer chiffon shirt, especially if it had one of these cute bows.
Gustavo Caballero / WireImage via Getty Images47. You could really stand out coming back to school if you dyed some colored streaks in your hair.
Jason Laveris / FilmMagic via Getty Images48. Or pulled a Kylie and dyed the ends — especially turquoise.
Marc Piasecki / GC Images via Getty Images49. Or you might come to school with the hottest new fashion — brassy ombre hair.
Jon Kopaloff / FilmMagic via Getty Images50. Or the classic blunt bangs hairstyle made famous by Demi Lovato and Carly Rae Jepsen.
Kevin Mazur / WireImage via Getty Images51. 2012 was the year of combat boots.
Suzy Hanzlik Photography / Getty Images52. ESPECIALLY spiked ones.
Tibrina Hobson / Getty Images53. In fact, 2012 was the year of spiked everything.
Debra L Rothenberg / FilmMagic via Getty Images54. We even wore spiked and studded collars.
Eugene Gologursky / WireImage via Getty Images55. Or necklaces.
Marc Andrew Deley / WireImage via Getty Images56. And fringe. Which you think would be more of a spring/summer thing, but somehow just ended up in darker colors for fall.
Michael Tran / FilmMagic via Getty Images57. Plaid skirts were an essential wardrobe piece.
Henry S. Dziekan Iii / WireImage via Getty Images58. As were skater skirts — especially in cheap fake leather.
Steven Lawton / FilmMagic via Getty Images59. We also got some great use out of our summer shorts by pairing them with tights.
Araya Diaz / Getty Images for https://DoSomething.org)60. We might even pull out our weirdly textured tights for the look.
NCP/Star Max / FilmMagic via Getty Images61. 2012 was really all about weird texture and pattern mixing.
Imeh Akpanudosen / Getty Images For NYLON62. And finally, we can’t talk about 2012 without mentioning its staple: fake leather moto jackets. Especially with — are you really surprised? — studs.
Michael Buckner / Getty Images for Samsung63. There were those cute colored versions, too.
Gustavo Caballero / WireImage via Getty Images64. Specifically, we loved this Free People “vegan” leather jacket with the detachable hood. I mean, who doesn’t love a detachable hood???
