Last weekend I was reminded of the style niche of "90s bully,"* when something happened to me and my sister that led us to think of a similarly unsophisticated way to describe our own fashion identity.
Dressed in black hoodies, jean jackets, windbreakers, toques and Vans, me and Moodle were mistaken for "Sandy's little brother" last Saturday night by a bunch of guys passing us by in their car. Not exactly sure 1) who Sandy is, 2) who would name their kid Sandy nowadays, and 3) which one of us "hey, are you Sandy's little brother" was directed at. Unfortunately we were too amazed to quip back something like; "noooo, seeing as we're GIRLS" or "yea we are him!"
Anyhow, this sparked the idea that from now on, our style icon is Sandy's Little Brother. Moodle was then inspired to let me cut her hair so she could always be mistaken for Sandy's lil bro. On the bottom right is Moodle's new hair, along with her fave little brothers (clockwise from her): Wiley Wiggums in Dazed & Confused, Stacey Peralta, Mitch from Honey I Shrunk Ourselves, JFD aka Sam Weir in Freaks n Geeks, and Tony Hawk.
