"Simple Kind Of Life"

Let me just start with how crazy the 90's were. Many different styles were happenin' from the grunge look of big T-shirts, dickies shorts and adidas to chokers, velvet dresses and high wasted pants (very Clueless). There is a different side of the 90's that I want to share with you guys that I love. Sublime, 311, and The Specials were all the rage but  I want to talk about how much I love and admire Gwen Stefani who was in No Doubt in the 90's and early 00's. I hold a special place for her in my heart (cheesy) but its true. Artist who don't care if what they're wearing looks ridiculous and can pull of their own style is fuckin AMAZIN'. She also didn't care what people said about her and the clothes she wore, SHE OWNED IT!
Her style was very different and lets be honest COOL AS FUCK! She wore furry bikini tops, pants that look like a trash bag, bright blue or pink hair and rocked the red lipstick. She and No Doubt challenged how people viewed reggae and transformed music into something new and refreshing that everyone enjoyed. Now if you didn't jam out to "Just A Girl" in your Jeep with the top off or "Hey Baby" on your way to the club you're lying!

Women's Pants

                                              Your Not So Average (Not) Identical Twins


           We all know that siblings can be close, but for these twins, who are not identical by the way,  being close is not something that can be described in such simple terms. They're very similar, and very severe, (though, I don't really like this word, for the purpose of understanding, it's a good one to use, you'll see what I mean.), but they do in fact *shocker* seem to have some differences among them. The very obvious ones being their appearances. This isn't kindergarten in the 70's, they do not, unfortunately, wear the same clothing. They do share, and trade off, as is made known in Twinheads, a short documentary done by Dazed. And it seems very obvious that a little bit of a creative gap is present, though I can't speak on it because I'm not very sure how to phrase it, sorry kids!

  Obviously, they are well lush, and have that lanky, mysterious thing going on that all boys should
strive for if I'm being totally honest (which I am). These boys seem to be a triple threat, which seems almost impossible, but trust me, it's all happening! They're not only models, they are also musically inclined, and I mean, look at them.

This Isn't the 70's? Get Me Outta Here!

    Fashion, Music, & all around
    Tomfoolery

     From disco, to punk rock, to gender defiance. We've seen it all, from the likes of John Travolta, Sid Vicious, and David Bowie. It was the whole package, the 70's brought an array of fashion trends, some that died slow, painful deaths, and some that have made triumphant comebacks throughout the decades. 

      We've seen the resurgence of tie-dye, platform shoes, cotton dresses, and flair jeans.
