The '90s were a testing time for us all. Not only were we supposed to wear combat-style jeans and make them look good but the shops were also a minefield of tacky slogan T-shirts and branded bags.

At the time, of course, we thought that rocking around with our 'Baby Girl' T-shirt on was the coolest thing in the world, only cooler if we were wearing our 'Babe' cap at the same time. And nothing excited us more than whipping out that GAP hoody or scandalous FCUK tee.

These are just a handful of the words we used to wear on our clothes back then - if you think of any more, let us know by tweeting @CosmopolitanUK.

Happy reminiscing...
