A few months ago, I pinned this on Pinterest. I loved the fitted, vintage-nod fitted jacket over the long flowy bottoms. I imagined recreating this silhouette myself with a pair of flowy super wide pants.
I was just looking through my old photos and was surprised to find this photo of me from my senior year of high school (taken in 1995 or 1996). Here I am, wearing similarly flowy bottoms with a fitted jacket I scored at a vintage shop. The similarity here is quite surprising to me as nearly 20 years have passed and I would have thought my style preferences had changed more by now.
Bonus photo, here's another photo from maybe a year later. This was my look throughout the late 90's. How I loved carrying that gas mask bag instead of a purse, wearing odd tees such as this one (an election tee from Yucatan, Mexico that says the candidate "Is The Man"). I really was embracing RATE back then, while my style now is Much.More.Feminine. This was more like what I remembered-- demonstrating how my style preferences have changed.
