As an elder Millennial, I'm left wondering WTF I missed in 2006?!? All the girls in high school were wearing Doc Martins, turtle necks, and low-cut jeans while sporting streaky highlights in their hair, and all of the girls in college were wearing Uggs and puffy coats with faux-fur hoods. There was none of... Whatever this is.

This is the "scene kid" aesthetic that was popular in the mid aughts. They barely made the millennial cutoff as far as I'm concerned and they're not very representative of our generation as a whole.

Yeah this wasn't 2006 really and was more like 2009-2010 when the "scene" scene got "big".
