Being an adult comes with a lot responsibilities. You've got bills and all types of grown-up issues on your plate. But when it comes to fashion, things don't always have to be so serious, and the latest runway trends are proof. Lately, designers are infusing more playful pieces into their collections—think see-through jelly sandals and the once-embarrassing hair accessories that were huge back in the '90s.
Don't brush those unfortunate childhood trends off as unrealistic runway items. You can totally work the fun accessories into your 2018 look without being mistaken for a schoolgirl. Just take notes on exactly how it's done below.

Scrunchies
Just like the fanny pack, scrunchies are back. Don't think of it as the embarrassing hair accessory you wore during that awkward stage in middle school. Think of it as a cool way to spice up your top knots.
Clogs
The bigger and chunkier the shoe, the better. So have fun with those noise-making clogs, which pair well with a pretty dress.
Headbands
Little girls aren't the only ones that can have fun with headbands. Try an adult version—like this sophisticated silk design.
Charm Bracelets
The relaxed vibes of charm bracelets will help you chill out and not take things so seriously. We say pile them on. The more, the better.
Hair Clips
Move over, bobby pins. The bendy clips from the '90s are back. Use them to keep flyaways out of your face and dress up your casual ponytails.
Jelly Sandals
Clear accessories are huge right now—and that goes for jelly shoes, too. Throw them on for a day at the beach and definitely pack them in your luggage for all of your summer trips.
