smells like teen spirit.

This past weekend the boyfriend and I decided to go on one of our driving adventures, and get out of LA. We decided to drive up through Ojai and into Frazier Park, just near the 5 freeway. It was gorgeous! From horses and estates in Ojai,  to 1 foot of snow in 65 degree weather in Frazier Park. 

It was really really pretty. 

I threw on a pretty standard outfit for the 4 hour car adventure...although, the boyfriend seemed to think I looked like a Nirvana groupie circa 1994 (I heart the 90's). I took it as a compliment. Doesn't everyone know the 1990's grunge look is back this fall!

Bring back the 90's!

.smells like teen spirit.

Designers at New York Fashion Week are channeling slacker-era Seattle’s unruly fashion with an affectionate tribute to all things grunge. The autumn/winter ‘11 shows are “haute off the street” with a Nirvana-style revival that hints at another whiff of teen-spirit in the air (yessssssss!). All too reminiscent of the early ’90s inspired trend, this prevailing motif suggests that every step forward yields one step back. Personally, I have always loved the 90's grunge look. I thought I was so sooo cool in 1998 wearing my essentials:

ü     black nail polish that I would buy at Hot Topic (when it wasn't even Halloween)

ü     Doc Martins, of course

ü     lace

ü     mood rings and thumb rings

ü     flannel (I still die for flannel)

ü     black....anything and everything black (my dad always told me "your closet looks like a funeral!"

ü     my torn cutoff Levi's

Ahhhhh...the good 'ol days. Glad they're back. I welcome you with open arms, while wearing flannel...obvi.

What are YOUR thoughts on the return of the 90's?? 

mmmmmm guess who?
