21 School Essentials For All Teenage Girls In The 00's

Your must have Kookai Bag was always full of books, magazines and CD's!

Whilst the essential Baby G watch completed the outfit...

Along with a Tiffany chain link necklace...

And the Spice Girls platform shoes.

The fluffy 'Clueless' pen was also another essential accessory *together with the pensive pose*

You had to have a fake ID to impress your friends and get into the pub when you were only 16!

Others tried to be cool via the medium of Tippex by personalising their bags, pencil cases and ring binders

But it was all about the smiley face string backpacks that made our days so much brighter.

Others covered their notepads in pretty wallpaper designs...

During breaks, you would have fun playing with your slimy Millennium babes (ew)

Your arm wouldn't be complete without a hundred shag bands decorating it.

They were as essential as butterfly hair clips...

But they weren't as cute as these hairbands.

The contents of your bag wouldn't be complete without a funky CD case.

These pens would mess our hands up and still wouldn't improve our handwriting.

Although this type of rubber was supposed to erase ink, instead it destroyed the paper.

But this magic pen did the job and made your life a whole lot easier!

Break time was spent playing, collecting and exchanging these cool pogs. Whoever had the special edition was treated like royalty!

And on the way home conkers was the best game. Who knew the trick to put it in vinegar the night before would harden it?

The reward after your hard day at school would be 10p Space Raiders! Mmm...

But the best accessory of all was our signed school shirts on the last day of school!
