Could not GIS the picture of Mark that I was thinking of, boo. :(

Hold up, Stussy is a retro cool brand now? Kids smdh

tbrr the 90s nostalgia fashion trend really weirds me out bc I was 17-27 in the 90s so pretty formative years during which I was using my own money to buy my own fashion choices and a lot of those things don't feel retro to me because they still serve as a foundation for my style choices today. Like I still favor skirts and tshirts and hoodies and clever sneakers or black flats. I don't know, I'm sure some professional social commentator, proto-Andy Rooney has said this better than me.

i think it might just be me swith the stussy thing, i havent seen anyone else wearing it tbh. also im 32 xxp

37 here and it never fell out of favor with me

have always had a thang for stussy bc it reminds me of all the cuet sk8er boys in my hometown that I used to moon over
don't get me started on vision street wear lol

37? 36

lol

Aaahhhh for me that's Vans and Vision Street Wear, full stop. I had a crush on that drummer for years....

hahaha oh man i am a longtime fan of vision streetwear

bid on gator rogowski's shoes many times on ebay

Unfortunately for my crushes on all the skaters I was a good Christian girl with protective parents so I was never allowed out unchaperoned/unsupervised. Definitely one thing I was not ever going to be able to do was hang out with boys in parking lots.

lol I ended up befriending 3 skater dudes why bcz they played *badminton*

no lie

I think their parents wanted them to do 'social activities' so they would show up and lol their way thru games. I was so crushed out I would sit with them while they graffiti'd the gym bleachers bcz I was so nerdy they woudln't get in trouble if they were hanging out with me u_u

i was into pop punk and the beastie boys and wore huge pants so yeah i hung out with skater dudes and was in love with all of them probably

i still do hang out with skater dudes tbh

Oh hi, is the 90s crushes thread?

Oh, Ewan, when did you get SO OLD??

Teenage me is so jealous of teenage you, roxy!

Ewan 4eva btw. Man's got it at any age.

ewan was #1 crush when i was 17-18 but it was mostly surrounding his trainspotting look. i have a pic somewhere of my wall in high school, its mostly a collage of his face. lol. hes still hot imo

If we're talking high school, I think I predated you all as the sour/dour velvet blazer wearing grouch who people found "hard to talk to" and "standoffish". For a while people called me Beetlejuice (because they were stupid). I say this with the understanding that I was grouchy, guarded, and not the easiest person on earth to talk to. My best friend at school was the bubbly punk princess who everyone -- and I mean everyone -- wanted to sleep with. Compared to her, I was an alien. Thinking about this is making me so nostalgic!

in high school i was called everything from billy corgan to wednesday adams

i was called chuckie
as in the doll

i was into pop punk and the beastie boys and wore huge pants so yeah i hung out with skater dudes and was in love with all of them probably

This is me p much exactly. CF the pic of me in my sweet JNCOS knocking aroud the lolcollege thread

haha i love that pic and u look so much like my bff in high school in it. we would have been friends for certain

:)

and I fucking loved Stussy. lol. I had the greatest mint green and brown striped hoodie t shirt thing that I wore to death.

i never actually owned any stussy which might explain my sudden strange interest in it now

That was when I was young, maybe like 14. I remember it really clearly because it was at a store on FI and I took a ziploc back full of singles (I was busing tables for my parents) to the store and paid for it in basically all coin and singles.

lol. i had these:

when my friend jason came to pick me up once i fell down 14 times in a row - it was icy

hahahaha

ahhhhhhhhhhh I forgot about those! I multi-colored stripped platform converse. They were really hard to walk in ice or no ice.

striped, even

The soles were stiff iirc so you sorta clomped around

THEN AGAIN i rescued my removable ruffle-fronted white blouse from my clothing archive recently and i've been considering resurrecting it
it's pretty lol

haha i wore them sledding once! why

also the soles eventually wore down to almost normal height. the bottom was like...foamy. not really like the rest of the sole. they were weird.

i used to wear my grandfathers pants every day. i also collected articles of brown corduroy clothing hoping to one day have a full suit's worth. i found a brown corduroy tie in the costume shop of the school's theater, i was really excited

plaid pants and baby t's, that was my steez. also seems like i just kind of like festooned myself with tiny toys

if my hair wasnt in a ridiculous toboggan it was like this:

my best friend in college came back from the cheapskate shoe store with a pair of red high heeled spice-girls sneakers. They were like, 6 inch heels, ankle strap the whole nine. She was delighted beyond words.
Being a pretty ungirly girl I was appalled, lol

I had a pair of brown check pants I got in clearance at a surf store, and a pair of rust-colored hessian-kinda material wideleg pants that my mum made me. I wore both til they fell off me.
and my Aloha Mr Hand beasties tshirt, other band tshirts, and like 100,000 slightly fitted Bonds tshirts (kind of like a baby tee but thicker stretchy cotton, v hardwearing, v popular in the 90s)

You guys were much cooler than I was! I was reined in until college, when I went crazy with used men's work clothes from the farm store, janitors' shirts with name patches that said "Dave" and "Dan" on them, and cut all my hair off and dyed it copper, and my mother told my extended family that I had chosen to be ugly.

It was a rough 5 years or so with that relationship.

oh man the shirts with men's name patches on them were totally a thing

In jr high I fought a constant battle to rescue my jeans with holes in them from the laundry because otherwise they'd be thrown out, and I had a Tshirt from the skate store 50 miles away that had a skull and crossed fishbones on it and complained about companies polluting the river. Would sneak all to school and change there, add a bandana wrap around my hair, got in trubble (unsurprisingly). I think I mostly gave up by high school and just followed along for the next 4 years until I could leave.

i wore lipsticks of various brown shades

jeans were holey which was illegal at school, i was terrified of turning corners and running into the principal. this fear lasted til a couple years after high school i find myself getting tense turning corners in holey jeans
