While all things Y2K have entered the chat as of late, it's been the '90s that have inspired almost every accessory trend there is over the past few years. And truth be told, I don't see that changing anytime soon. In general, '90s-inspired accessories have a minimalist look that makes them quite versatile. (If you want a modern-day example, check out pretty much anything from The Row.)
Because '90s shoes and bags are so timeless and so enduringly popular, I set out on a mission to find the best current options that reflect that effortless minimalism that's endured all of these years. Sure, you could go the vintage route, but if you prefer new things like myself, I found the best options if you love versatile '90s style. Keep scrolling to shop 17 bags and 17 pairs of shoes that will go with all of your favorite outfits. Gwyneth Paltrow would be proud.
