It's been exactly 25 years since the world lost singer Aaliyah. While her untimely death still invokes sadness for fans, we hold on to so many positive feelings in our collective memories. The One in a Million artist wasn't just talented; she was known for her fashion sense.

It's been a quarter century since Aaliyah's tragic death and even though she's gone way too soon, the late legend's legacy will live on forever. She was only 11 years old when she first started performing, hitting the Sin City stage alongside her aunt, Gladys Knight. Aaliyah dropped her debut album in 1994, when she was just 14. Her second album went double platinum, and her third and final album scored her a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Album.

25 years ago today we lost Baby Girl, and it still doesn't feel real. She was 15 when she arrived and only 22 when she was taken, and in those seven short years she changed R&B forever.
