Denim mini skirts with cropped leggings, hardcore editing of all of your photos, posting a Facebook status every time a thought entered your brain; It all seems cringe-worthy when you look back at it, right? In a world that’s constantly changing, it’s important to step back and evaluate what the heck everyone was doing in the past. Take a look at these top five trends of 2007 for some nostalgia.
