A little on the face and all over your chest achieved that perfect, glittery glow.

Everyone always had at least a dozen of these rubbery, rainbow bands on their arms. But if you looped two bracelets together into one design, oh boy, you were really hot stuff.

You had to be careful not to roll your ankle while dancing in these bad boys.

You definitely had these in at least five different colours.

Essentially just a long piece of fake leather, these "belts" made you feel like a celebrity.

Only the cool kids wore Paul Frank, so if you were spotted wearing this t-shirt you gained instant schoolyard cred.

Wearing Volleys was the comfortable but fashionable choice because it meant that you could still easily get down to the Hampsterdance song.

Every hairstyle looked ten times better when accessorised with a stretchy headband.

You would layer as many possible on your neck or make a ~fashion statement~ with the rainbow or pastel-coloured ones.

The Von Dutch trucker hat was as much a status symbol as your limited-edition Lip Smacker.

AKA the hottest fashion accessory of the '00s.

The easiest way to transform your hair from basic to preppy-chic.

In theory they looked so cute, but by the end of the night your feet would be sweating like craaaazy.

It wasn't a school disco unless everyone was sporting dozens of glow sticks on their arms.

Although the sickly-sweet fumes made you cough like crazy, it was a crime to leave the house without any on.

The only type of "piercing" your mum would allow you to wear. Plus, they came in multi-packs!!!

Your dream was to one day have crimped hair that looked as good as Lizzie McGuire's.

These were always stashed in your jelly purse in case you needed to touch up the gloss on your lips.

The perfect tool for creating some chunky, rainbow-coloured highlights.

Teamed with some 3/4 leggings and ballet flats, the rah-rah skirt was a staple in your wardrobe.

If it wasn't the iconic yellow, everyone had at least one of these rubber bracelets wrapped around their wrists.

What's cooler than wearing your new skirt or fave pair of flared jeans? Wearing them together, duh.

These half-cardigans were usually bedazzled, loosely knit, or tied in the front. Bonus points if your shrug had all three components.

Perfect for channelling those ~free spirit~ and ~boho~ vibes.

The more you layered your tank tops, the cooler your look was.

Matching your cargo pants to the ribbed cami you were wearing was such a look.

You didn't exactly know what "DIRTY DIRTY HOUSE MUSIC" was, but you knew that it would shine bright under that black light at the school disco.

Looking good was all about having the sharpest zig-zag parting.
