NIJ -- I had (and still have!) that very same red coat with the leopard print lining!! I got it at a thrift store and wore the hell out of it during a particularly glam phase I went through.
Maybe I will bust that coat out again, but I wonder if it reeks of smoke. Everything reeked of smoke in the 90s.

I also got that coat at the thrift store! a mean girl stole it from my older sister's closet, sadly.

This is actually cropped - the original is me and my best friend (then boyfriend) both looking all angsty and miserable, like a happy grunge couple should. From about '96, I guess? So I would've been about 15.

wkiw '96 emily! In fact 96 emily looks a lot like 93 Vegemite Grrl. Pretty sure I was wearing the same jacket and t-shirt, lol :)

VegemiteGrrrl, Friday, 28 January 2011 22:16 (thirteen years ago) link

Yeah, I had a Nirvana t-shirt for every day of the week, like the saddo I was.

cut off army shorts 4 eva

VegemiteGrrrl, Friday, 28 January 2011 22:22 (thirteen years ago) link

Ah, I didn't have army shorts. Had several German army jackets, and one German army shirt upon the back of which I diligently transcribed the lyrics to 'Transmission' by Joy Division. Happy days.

emil.y, Friday, 28 January 2011 22:23 (thirteen years ago) link

scored 2 pairs of army shorts from a friend who went through army cadets in high school.

but those army jackets were kickass. so warm.

Haha, not only can she still deploy that look at the age of 43, her daughter inherited from her.

There are two more floating around my room somewhere, one of me @ 14 or so at Disneyworld w/ dyed red hair and a Felix the Cat tshirt, and the other was my 3rd grade school photo complete w/ yin-yang necklace and proudly-displayed Goosebumps book.

Citizen SNPs (Trayce), Saturday, 29 January 2011 03:51 (thirteen years ago) link

I was wondering if I'd find this on YouTube, and sure enough it's there (what isn't?)--a Canadian TV interview with Black Flag from 1984, and at the 1:37 mark, when the punk girl moves her head left, that's me behind her and to the right. Can't wait to show this to my class on Monday!

Much like Black Flag, I've remained as raw and disaffected as when I first started.

That there are people in the world whom style their hair the same, dress the same, and mostly think exactly the same as you is very depressing.

Hadn't thought of it before, but you're right.

Johnny Fever, Saturday, 29 January 2011 04:40 (thirteen years ago) link

That there are people in the world who try to use "whom" correctly and fail is kind of amusing.

I would have had a huge crush on Johnny Fever in HS

So I was at my parent's at Christmas and I found a gothy photo of me from my senior year of highschool. Unfortunately I took a photo of the photo, so its all shitty looking. This was in 1998.

Quite sure it would've been mutual (y'know, ignoring the fact I graduated in 1992 and all)
