Throwback Thursday: Awkward Celebrity Prom Photos

Spoiler Alert: The following post contains questionable 90s hair, Tupac in a white suit, and way too much organza + taffeta to be sartorially sane. But If there’s anything that this throwback has taught us (other than the fact that cow print and blue hair don’t mix) it’s that even celebs can’t escape the inevitably awkward photo ops associated with prom. So embrace the camera, maybe throw in a Cara face for good measure, and werk your prom hair – because even if you’re Princess Riri, you’ve got nothing on awkward prom photos. read more…

Throwback: Scarlett Johansson Was Killing It In The 90s

Scarlett Johansson is the raspy-voiced vixen lady of some of the most varied Hollywood masterpieces of the past decade, staking her claim at the forefront of this generation’s “best dressed” lists and (figuratively, gracefully, eloquently) head-butting less-superior humans out of the way in the process. But where exactly did she come from? Not from the sky like a majestical angel as per our original premonitions, but rather from some random child-birthing / stylish-baby-creating location in her hometown of NYC.

And although the aforementioned is still up in the air, we’ve taken the time to look past her (maybe) magical origins and ~dig a little deeper~ so we may 1) get to the root of her fashion-y tendencies and 2) share our findings with you in one of the most enlightened TBT dedications to date. read more…

Age, industry, and even onscreen projects couldn’t tear these unexpected lovebirds apart. And of course, the Throwback nostalgia comes with it’s usual sartorial surprises we’d really like to leave in the past (re: something vaguely resembling a housecoat on a 90s SJP).

Throwback: 2007

Seeing as I’m on the cusp of entering “real world” adulthood, fondly revisiting memories of my life circa 2007 is pretty much mandatory. Aside from the awkward irrelevancies
that came with being 15-ish, 2007 will forever be held high on a pedestal and addressed
as The Best Collection of 365 Days Ever. read more…

So, this #ThrowbackThursday, lettuce remind you of those hilarious (at the time… & sorta still) videos we’d all huddle over: read more…

Throwback: What your favourite Spice Girl says about you

The Spice Girls were a crucial component in the development of young females throughout the 90s. As with most 90s pop bands, each Spice Girl took on a different persona, resulting in some members becoming more popular than others.

Disagreeing on which Spice Girl was best could cause a serious divide in your friend group; almost like telling your friends you’re a communist, or something.

Where Are They Now? The Cast of Breaker High

Ask a 90’s teen what the best part of growing up was and they will obviously say- watching Breaker High. Getting off the bus, running top speed up the driveway, fumbling with that giant converter and bam- Breaker High! The show about high school students on a boat. Okay so maybe it wasn’t the best part of the 90’s, but it was pretty good. So what happened to all those kids (that aren’t Ryan Gosling)? read more…
