If You Loved Fuzzy, Marabou-Topped Anything:
Then you'll love: Ariana Grande Moonlight Eau de Parfum, $59

Be honest, you probably owned something in the '90s topped with a pouf. Whether it was your hair accessories, your purse, maybe your pen. This vanity-friendly perfume from Ariana Grande is no exception. The faceted, iridescent bottle with lavender pom-pom brings back fond memories of the ultra-femme accessories of our past. Notes of plum, black currant and sandalwood give it a seductive, grown-up feel while vanilla and marshmallow keep it fun and youthful.

If You Loved Hair Scrunchies:
Then you'll love: Capelli New York Velvet Twisters, $8

Scrunchies were almost the perfect hair accessory -- they kept our hair out of our faces and because of the soft, fabric cover, prevented against breakage. Sadly, scrunchies got a bit of a bad rap (thanks, "Sex and the City") and people stopped wearing them out in public. Lately we've been seeing them on runways and the red carpet, and we couldn't be happier. Capelli New York's Velvet Twisters are like scrunchies, only chicer. The luxe fabric coating makes them accessories you want to coordinate your outfit with and show off.

If You Loved Frosted Lipstick:
Then you'll love: Ciate London Glitter Flip, $19

Keeping with the shimmery eye, skin and nail trends, it was only natural for shimmer to be found on the lips. '90s lipsticks were oh-so-frosty and fabulous. Lipsticks today are seeing a glimmer revival that is over-the-top and fun. Ciate London Glitter Flip is an excellent example of the statement glitter lip. Ranging from neutrals to wild shades, these liquid lippies give beautiful, lasting coverage with the added element of sparkle.
