You guys, I can’t believe I’ve been running this blog for almost five months and I’ve never mentioned this hugely important part of my life: Clueless is my favorite movie. Of all time. I know every line, every song on the soundtrack, and every outfit.

I remember seeing it in the theater with my mom when I was 10. At the time I was too young to get half the jokes, but I still loved it. I had it on VHS (those rectangular things from the 90s that you had to rewind), had the soundtrack, then got the DVD, then got a DVD again when the 10th anniversary edition came out (there were special features).

I didn’t think there was anything else I could get until a fateful day last fall when I happened to be wandering through Forever 21 and spotted this sweatshirt. I was so excited! But wait, the story’s not over.

After I swiped my credit card, at the exact moment when the cashier handed me the yellow bag containing my newfound treasure, I kid you not…David Bowie’s “Fashion” came blasting through the store’s speakers! That’s the song that plays in the first scene of the movie!!! I swear on the grave of Brittany Murphy I am not making this up. It was a magical moment.

So when I got all my winter clothes out of storage last weekend, this sweatshirt was one of the first things I wanted to wear. As if I would wear anything else, right? I would have been totally buggin’ if I couldn’t wear it. OK, that’s enough of that. Just watch the movie.

I figure I know some other Clueless fans out there, so I’m hoping you all enjoy this as much as I do. Tell me your favorite part of the movie in the comments!

Summer came back for one last fling this week here in Indy. Much like summer, print mixing won’t go away. (I was trying for a clever segway there but I’m not sure it really worked out.) Anyway, I tried a new print mixing combination today! Birds and polka dots. At least I think they’re birds. They could just be non-descript flecks, but it’s kind of like looking for shapes in the clouds. Maybe you see Abe Lincoln or a ballerina, but if you do…you should probably get your eyes checked. Cuz they’re birds.

P.S. Feel free to compliment me on my new necklace, which is super cute. P.P.S. Don’t forget you can follow me on Bloglovin’, which would be super for you.
