The Best Kelly Kapowski Outfits That Are So 2018

Are you ready for some serious '90s fashion and television nostalgia? Because today we're honing in on bombshell Saved by the Bell character Kelly Kapowski, taking you on a trip down memory lane as we highlight some of her best outfits from 20-plus years ago that are, you guessed it, still so on-trend today—proof, yet again, that everything in fashion cycles back around again at some point—and it makes it easy with all-things '90s being the current style obsession.

Now if you're unfamiliar with Kelly Kapowski, played by Tiffani Thiessen, there are two things you certainly need to know: she had the coolest clothes (the proof is in the picture below) and she was every teenage girl's style icon in the '90s—and it's easy to see why. With a wardrobe chock-full of high-waisted jeans, an endless supply of crop tops, and the cutest matching floral sets, Kapowski embraced every trend imaginable and rocked it with serious confidence. Ahead, see the best Kelly Kapowski outfits that are still so relevant today.
