Silver Belly Bars - The rising Y2K studs are back again


Belly Button Bars were promoted in the mid '00s by artists like Britney Spears, just to be considered tasteless and offensive by mainstream society a couple of years after. Be that as it may, with Gen Z leading the rise of lowrise jeans (while dropping skinny jeans), exposed high G Strings, and

other Y2K staples, the belly button bars’ penetrating return appears to be practically inescapable,

considering the more youthful age's fixation on sentimentality. Indeed, the hashtag "Y2K" on TikTok

has more than one billion impressions, with "belly ring" piling up almost 50 million of those.


On TikTok, a millennial user recently posed the question to the younger generation: "Are belly button

rings out?" People of all ages rushed to the comments to assure her the piercing is timeless. "I have it

and I'm Gen X," wrote one user. "It's a classic rebellion thing," wrote another. While the piercing is

once again in fashion, piercers aren't concerned that it will go out of style for a second time. Most

can make anything look chic and expensive. Fashion is cyclical, so it doesn't come as a surprise. Like

everything, it's about how it's put together.


With the low-rise trend exposing our bellies in a way that hasn't been seen since the Britney era,

decorating it for confidence or even just aesthetics is an extremely valid way to celebrate getting

vaccinated (hot vaxx summer baby). If you end up deciding to get the piercing, whatever your

reasoning, speaking to a qualified piercer is the way to go if you're engaging in the trend this

summer. And if you decide to take the plunge, posting the process on TikTok is a popular, but

completely optional, next step.


However, what should be an essential next step is checking out our store, our silver belly bars are

still a timeless classic or maybe add a little chic with our cute diamanté pieces - this bar doesn’t get

old, nor does it go out of fashion. Whatever the outfit is, the diamanté belly bar is one you can

always count on to compliment a fit, whether you’re heading off to a beach or you’re going out to a

party. It works perfectly with a crop top and those low rise jeans…


However you feel about belly rings, or any other 2000s beauty trend for that matter, just know that

Gen Z is on a mission to bring Y2K back, whether we like it or not and the belly button bar is coming

with it kicking and screaming.
