The thing about fashion is, the minute you think something is disgusting and passé is the minute it is becoming extremely cool again. They key is to not worry about any of it and just wear what you like deep in your soul. If you can do that, you can have style.

@chloeikennedy As someone who was 12 when Clueless came out, I have to tell you that they were at least a year behind on trends. I wore a Clueless outfit on the first day of school in 7th grade, almost a year before it was released. It wasn't until years later that it became a fashion thing.
