Netflix has just made it known which movies you’ll streaming from the comfort of your bed this holiday season, and all I can say is fuck Christmas sweaters — Crossroads is finally coming to Netflix!

The Britney Spears-starring road trip movie is arguably the best worst film of the 2000s. But it wasn’t just the plot that was perfectly awful (just FYI don’t ever agree to road trip with your two BFFs and a random man you literally just met.) It is also in some ways a fashion film, a glorious portrayal of everything you love to hate about the year Paris Hilton was still a thing.

Get psyched for December 1st with the film’s defining sartorial moments. Revive at your own risk.

1. These fly fishing bait earrings.
The American south’s redfish population was probably thriving for months just because of all these earrings.

2. The many fabulous bucket hats.
Actual fact: Anson Mount threw up after this diner scene was filmed. Possible fact: the only reason he managed to keep it together while cameras were rolling was because of this lovely hat.

3. Zoe Saldana’s chain accessory game.
These belts are well overdue for a comeback.

4. The many headscarves of Taryn Manning.
I think they got tighter as the plot developed. (Bonus shout-out to this butterfly-print.)

5. Butterfly everything.
Speaking of butterflies, this perfect frame combines both butterfly hair clips and a swirly butterfly print shit. I think I owned the matching stationary set to the shirt.

6. Lockets.
Fact: The photos in this locket were of actual Brit Brit as a kid.

7. All your memories of this combination.
From the film’s seminal hotel room scene. Combine with fishnet tights for maximum effect.

8. Lucy’s “bad girl” hairstyle.
I couldn’t focus on it before because of all the feather earrings, but this is some Wild West Sandy Olsson realness.

9. Early 2000s prom fashion.
Shawls, chokers, and blue eyeshadow was such a glam combo.
