Unwrapped: The Ultimate ‘90s Nostalgia Gift Guide

’Tis officially the season for gift-giving. For us, that’s a full month (31 days!) in which we’ll be providing gift ideas for everyone on your list with our Unwrapped holiday gift guides. So make your holiday shopping a breeze this season, and let us help you find gifts for all the people in your life—and maybe even a spoiled pet or two.

Probably anyone who lived through the ‘90s has some degree of appreciation for the decade, but those born in the ‘90s have a yearning for it that can only be described as borderline unhealthy. From the television shows to the fashion to the music, there’s something about the time that lends itself well to nostalgia. Or maybe we millennials are just too sentimental for a decade when things seemed simpler than the clusterfuck they are right now.

Either way, the love we hold is very strong and most of us will go out of our way for some hope that a product or song will trigger memories from that time. And so, with that being said, you definitely have at least one ‘90s obsessive in your life. Maybe it’s you! Whoever it might be, the items ahead will help you or your friend stop time for a bit and rewind to better days when Daria graced the screen and Lisa Frank reigned supreme. 

Check out our gift suggestions for virtual time travel, ahead.

One good thing about living in the ‘10s now (okay, there are a lot of good things) is the advancement of technology, specifically when it comes to gaming consoles. The days of blowing on your Mario Kart cartridges are behind you, and there’s nothing more satisfying than zooming past all of your friends in high definition. So, yes, a '90s freak will love this, but it also serves to remind them that not everything used to be better. We all need those reminders sometimes.
