The lists on the I Went to High School in NYC in the ’90s Facebook page are crazy familiar. Mostly I just hung out in bookstores, but I could relate to almost everything on there, like:

Diners
Chilling outside of Unique on Broadway.
Canal St. Jeans pins.
L’oreal lipstick that every chick wore— coffee bean and rum raisin. toast of new york. blackberry.
