Smells Like 90's Spirit

in celebration of these two lovely ladies' birthdays, they threw a huge 90s inspired bash in becky's upstairs studio on main street. 

with a keg and everything! it was a true 90's rager that took me (waaayy) back to my 17 year old just-graduated-high school, baggy-overalls-wearing scrunchy-lovin self. 

the 90's were multi-faceted really, when you begin a serious study, and there is a big difference between '91, '95 and '99. the many intricacies were represented in full force at this birthday riot.

looks like a really bad 90's sitcom, hm?

myself, i went circa 1998, when i was way into wearing bindis and little jewels by my eyes and fake tattoos and glitter. i wore this fairy baby tee that i used to rock quite frequently as evidenced by its completely faded nature, with a tutu which i never actually wore, but i wanted to look like more a raver than i really was. a pile of beaded necklaces, a pink plastic flower clip in my pigtails and some big bulky maryjanes with knee socks, and i was good to go. psychedelic fairy flower child?

needless to say,with a playlist riddled with the likes of "no diggity," ace of base, and "firestarter,"well shit yeah it was a regular riot in there!

i even got a whole red plastic cup of beer spilled on me. hella 90s. see what i mean?

add plenty of glow sticks, and don't forget the candy necklaces.

...and perhaps a sleeping baby along with your beer ;) 90s gets an update.

all we needed was some zima to complete the flashback. i will admit, i wish it still existed.

but then again, this is what i do for fun, so....yeah. i'm gross.

what about you? favorite 90s memory? song? fashion faux pas? pray tell. meanwhile i'll be listening to spin doctors. just kidding. just kidding.
