Blast from the Past: 7 Nostalgic Pop Culture Comebacks

Is nostalgia the latest trend in pop culture? Everywhere we look, things we loved from the past are being revived – and it's making us feel all warm and fuzzy inside! So today we’re taking a look at a few of our faves. From fashion to music, here are some of the best pop culture moments that have been making a comeback.

 

Scrunchies: Scrunchies were a staple for every 90’s girl. Now they're back with a vengeance, and we can see why. These hair accessories come in all colors and patterns (some even have pockets!) and are a fun and easy way to add a pop of color to your outfit.

 

Vinyl Records: Some may argue that vinyl records never really went away, but there’s definitely been a surge of new listeners in recent years. Music lovers are rediscovering the warm sound that only vinyl can provide, artists are coming out with special edition records, and new record stores are popping up all over the place.

 

Polaroid Cameras: With the rise of digital photography, for a while it seemed like Polaroid cameras were a thing of the past. But the instant gratification of having a physical photograph is something that digital just can't replicate. Plus, how cute are those mini prints?

 

Fanny Packs: There was a time when fanny packs were considered the epitome of dorkiness, but now they're a total fashion statement. From high-end designer brands to streetwear labels, it seems like everyone is embracing the convenience and style of the fanny pack.

 

Game Consoles: With the rise of mobile and online gaming, it seemed like game consoles were becoming obsolete. But now, classics like the Nintendo Entertainment System and the Sega Genesis are being re-released, with more and more of today’s gamers discovering the joys of playing on them.

 

Classic Cartoons: From Looney Tunes to SpongeBob SquarePants, classic cartoons are making a comeback. Nostalgic adults are introducing their favorite childhood shows to their own children, and new generations are falling in love with the characters and humor, not to mention the new merch collaborations with existing brands.

 

Music from the 90’s and 2000’s: Pop from the last couple of decades has been having a resurgence as well, especially with artists like New Kids On The Black, Backstreet Boys, Boyz II Men, and New Edition making comeback tours. Fans who grew up listening to this music are thrilled to see them back in the spotlight
