With streaming services like Netflix and Disney+ at our disposal, it easier than ever to look back on some of our favorite films from the early 2000s. When times get tough, nostalgia can make us feel better — so that’s why I’m kicking off a new Throwback Fashion series.

Over the weeks ahead, we will be taking a look back at some of our favorite films from when we were kids and the iconic fashion inspiration they have to offer.

Our first film of the series is full of incredible fashion moments, plus Lindsay Lohan in her teen queen prime! Today, we’re throwing it back with fashion from Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen.

The film follows Lola, played by the 2000’s It girl Lindsay Lohan, as she transitions from life in New York City to living in the suburbs. Throughout the film, Lola discovers the importance of friendship and how to be her true self, all while wearing some great outfits that were made for the year 2004.

Below are four looks inspired by Lola’s dramatic fashion choices, all made modern so you can wear them today! Read on for some Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen fashion inspo.

Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen Fashion: I Love New York

At the beginning of the film, Lola is not at all pleased with her family’s choice to move to the suburbs. She shows her displeasure by leaning into her grunge city outfits and professing her love for NYC every chance she gets.

In the scene above, Lola expresses her love for her home by wearing an I love New York t-shirt underneath a black fishnet top. To add to her grunge style, Lola adds a studded belt, black low-rise jeans (a classic 2000’s trend), and stacked black bracelets.
