<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/2000s-trends-comeback-summer-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Y2K trends</a> cannot stop going viral on <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/avril-lavigne-sk8er-boi-tiktok-debut-tony-hawk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TikTok</a> and inevitably reappearing in our lives. One of the biggest <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/preppy-trends-summer-loafers-cardigans-blazer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trends</a> is the resurgence of early <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/colorful-ring-trend-instagram-la-manso" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2000s jewelry</a> styles, and along with <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/anklet-trend-accessory-summer-fashion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">anklets</a> and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/summer-camp-jewelry-trend-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener">summer camp jewelry</a>, belly and body chains are making a comeback.
