Oh god...I went through so many of these! The skinny scalf, the low rise bootleg jeans 😬 my boobs popping out of a figure hugging waistcoat (I once wore only this with nothing underneath - trying to be 'sexy' with my pierced belly button on show). I ritually wore a trilby hat too. Realising in hindsight that I really just wanted the waistcoat & hat because I wanted to be a dapper gentleman. But the boobs & belly button got people to buy me drinks 🤷
Oh, god, I'm having visceral flashbacks of desperately trying not to flash my buttcrack every time I did anything but stand up perfectly straight. The chewed-out, heel-shaped holes in the bottoms of my jeans bemoaning the over-abundance of fabric in an inconvenient place, fabric that could have been better used to add at least another inch to that 3-inch zipper at the top. Muffin-top and butt-top galore.
EVERYTHING WITH THE JEANS. THE PULLING THE RIDIC HIP-HUGGING SHIRT DOWN. THE ICONIC BIRDS AND TREES SHIRT. And I literally had that same belt which only did an okay-ish job keeping my pants up. Yup. Being an awkward ‘00s teen feels
Omg Nate never have I seen something I so relate to. I “developed” VERY early and none of the clothes ever looked right on me. A terrible time to be a teen.
I feel this in my soulllll! Especially the "where do i stuff these giant bitties so that they draw the least amount of attention but also I don't look like a sack of potatoes"
SKETCHBOOK: the early 00s as an uncomfortably lady-shaped teenager
Omg the second page. I still feel the fucking chewed up bottoms of my jeans, dragging behind me 😭
Help I’m having war flashbacks

whyyyyyy do pants gap in the back so baddddd
You know what, I'm treating myself to some clothes I've been wanting to get for a while.
Reading this reminded me I should appreciate that I don't have to deal with buying from the girls section during the early 2000s anymore.
I do deserve a cool racing jacket after wearing lycra t-shirts and low rise tight jeans for years. It's called reparations, baby ✨

The giant sunglasses at the end @u@
Ok I adore cornflakes
Oh. Oh my. Past you made some...decisions, didn't they.
That said, the second to last outfit (the sailor dress/top with pants) looks adorb.
The last one with the giant sunglasses cracks me up so much. <3
You sure are bringing back memories of some of my own choices
