Oh how I loved my pleated designer baggies in the 6th grade...wore them almost every day. 

Yes! *Especially* when one is out of shape! 

Truth!

Because satin. <shrug>

OhmyDog it is just horrible. And I get that her hair is her trademark thing but she’s not on a beach FFS. 

Voila! 

But HOW, JES, can that possibly be “the best tux” with the ill fit and wrinkles?! Especially with Wesley, as you mentioned, looking all fly and shit?!

Also: Ew Giuliana; you look like an orange skeleton with expensive extensions. It’s ok to just be you and, if that won’t work, ask your stylist or best friend, gurl! 

I mean, is it that much worse than what she’s best known for *lately*?

How DARE she invoke that Prince concert; she offended and disappointed His Royal Purpleness *so* deeply by her utter refusal (inability?) to dance when He put her up on stage. Also that dress was as ugly as the rest of her wardrobe.

You mean Melania of the $300 trash flare Louboutins?!

I’d say her horrible taste cred is legit. 

What?! Have you not heard about her “extraordinary ability” and “sustained national and international acclaim”?!

/s

Significantly worse. Because ‘Murica.

I think that’s the youth culture trope, since the dawn of teenagers driving consumer culture. 

Yeah. I’m 50...it’s tough to see the cultural questions we were trying to answer with the clothes/style that consumed our waking hours reduced to...Farrah Fawcett?! No.

In my experience, prep has *never* fully gone out of style, especially on the East Coast where affluent, boarding-school, patriarchal / “old money” culture is alive and well.

And in Northern California, where I grew up, its influence was definitely more in the early 80s (Risky Business, anyone?) ...and it eventually…

Isn’t this article owning that teenaged girls need to fit in what drives them to try to look like “cool” girls? 

I either love or hate (depending on the day) that “vintage” style that “brings you back” is from after I graduated high school.

Unless it’s a #7 on the bottom (those had BPA), it apparently *is* still save to use! 

You don’t think it’s the fact that punk is kind of anti-it girl at its core? And anti-government, and anti-religion...yes, “traditional punk” can look very much the same from its inception until now (Doc Marten has been in business for decades for a reason), but it’s always been anti-traditional…

Oh, they most *definitely* wore poodle skirts. I have my mother’s. In addition to penny loafers, they also wore white Keds...which, upon arriving at school, the wearer would immediately dirty by having all her friends come and rub their shoes all over, because bright, white, new-looking Keds were decidedly un-cool.
