<p>Take a look around. See a little more neon than what you're accustomed to? Well, that's because fluorescent colors and candy raver styling is back in a big way. Whether it's flannel (which will be featured in a future <a href="http://www.etsy.com/storque/search/tags/Trends/">Trends column</a> on lumberjack and grunge chic) or neon, people are bringing back the culture of &quot;anti-fashion,&quot; but in new and reinvented styles. The music scene associated with all the fluorescent action is known as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Rave" target="_blank">nu rave</a>, which is a homage to the &quot;traditional&quot; rave scene characterized by fog machines, light shows and pounding electronic music, as well as the other musical genres of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disco" target="_blank">disco</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Wave_music" target="_blank">new wave.</a> </p><p>Neon first came into vogue in the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1990s_in_fashion" target="_blank">early '90s</a>. Popular items of fluorescent clothing included t-shirts, sweatshirts, socks, shoelaces, hair scrunchies, and fanny packs, worn by both men and women. Whether vintage or handmade, neon is once again in the streets and on the runway, and the fashion-forward know it's time to make it work! </p><p>Here we have some popular neon looks and coordinating Etsy items you can incorporate into your wardrobe.
