I LOVE the tomboy cool of it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwback-thursday-how-my-style-has-not-changed-at-all-and-how-it-has-changed-a-ton#post-1233108 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 12:30:24 +0000 Janet 1233108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh how fun! I am now a sucker for TBTs. I still like fun tees. I had a pair of palazzo pants in the late 90s -- they were vintage and printed with a paisley pattern, and I wore them to a Christmas party with the guy I was dating where we shared our first kiss. I'm now married to him. </p> <p>I don't want to threadjack, but wouldn't it be fun to do a fashion TBT thread here on Thursdays? I'll start a new thread to see if everyone would be into it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwback-thursday-how-my-style-has-not-changed-at-all-and-how-it-has-changed-a-ton#post-1233103 Fri, 25 Apr 2014 12:22:04 +0000 Anonymous 1233103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha, Jenny! I think I've forgotten plenty of things I wore then, too, which is probably merciful.&nbsp;</p> <p>And I think the tee definitely added at least a few IQ points! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwback-thursday-how-my-style-has-not-changed-at-all-and-how-it-has-changed-a-ton#post-1232257 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 15:56:13 +0000 Jenny H 1232257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aubergine, based on what you say, perhaps the biggest surprise&nbsp;is that I had completely forgotten&nbsp;the palazzo pants trend from the 90's. Aren't we too young for memory loss?!</p> <p>It's so fun to hear your take on what you wore during the same time frame. I bet you felt smart in that Harvard tee! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwback-thursday-how-my-style-has-not-changed-at-all-and-how-it-has-changed-a-ton#post-1232094 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 12:54:19 +0000 Anonymous 1232094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so cute in both pictures! I think I must be about the exact same age as you, so these looks also seem really familiar. </p> <p>I had kind of similar-looking&nbsp;flowered palazzo pants I wore in high school and to summer jobs in college. I think remembering those has actually made me kind of hesitant to try wide-legged pants now that there are a bunch of current versions, because I'm afraid they'd just feel dated and not different enough from then&nbsp;to me. </p> <p>And college me would have thought the gas mask bag and t-shirt were the coolest things ever! I loved weird t-shirts. Two of my favorites were one that came from the Hard Rock Cafe in Leningrad and an old&nbsp;Harvard t-shirt that I got from a thrift shop for 50 cents (mostly because I liked having people ask if I went to Harvard, so I could tell them that story instead). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/throwback-thursday-how-my-style-has-not-changed-at-all-and-how-it-has-changed-a-ton#post-1232030 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 11:22:16 +0000 Jenny H 1232030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A few months ago, I pinned <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/36802921929420302/" rel="nofollow">this</a> on Pinterest. I loved the fitted, vintage-nod&nbsp; fitted jacket over the long flowy bottoms. I imagined recreating this silhouette myself with a pair of flowy super wide pants.</p> <p>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.</p> <p>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. </p>
