Creator @Layerednliberte put a 90’s twist on the trend, modeling outfits she’d wear in hit 90s TV shows, like The Jamie Foxx Show, The Parkers, Living Single, and In Living Color. Fitting the throwback tone of the overall video, she switched the music to Monica’s “Don’t Take It Personal (Just One of Dem Days).”
