Yesterday marked 20 years since the movie
Clueless came out. In honor of the anniversary, a new book
As If! was released with all sorts of cool behind-the-scenes details and polaroids. I can't explain the incredible influence the style in this film had in my life. At the time, I didn't understand all the topics discussed, but the fashion (and soundtrack) are what really mattered and what made a huge impact on me. I was in elementary school at the time and tried my hardest to replicate the looks with baby doll tees, plaid skirts, knee high socks, fluffy feather pens and mary-janes. When I think back on it, my teachers must have thought my parents were crazy for letting me dress like that, which makes me appreciate my parents that much more. They knew just how much fashion meant to me and let me go for it. On a side note, the soundtrack is how I first discovered No Doubt. And so began my love affair with the band fronted by my middle school and high school idol—
Gwen Stefani, whom I got to
take a selfie with last week!
