What Would Willow Wear: Gingerbread

Okay so according to my site stats the post I wrote about Willow Rosenberg fashion is pretty much the most popular thing that has ever come out of my hands that isn't cat treats in front of a mostly cat-based audience. The more "vintage" Buffy the Vampire Slayer becomes the more amazing these outfits get and my burning wish to do more Willow fashion recaps is starting to overpower my fear of being seen creating content for the sake of producing clickbait, so since the world is ending (again??) I am just going to do whatever the hell I want and that is posting pics of Willow Rosenberg's outfits with commentary entirely out of chronological order.

What else am I going to do, actual work? Get out of here.

Okay so the episode I will be covering today is one of my all-time favs: Gingerbread. Buffy and Willow are suspected of murdering a bunch of creepy German children as part of some sort of occult ritual and almost end up getting burned at the stake. Does extreme heat hinder their fashion sense at all? Like hell it does.

We start out with Willow (who has recently reconciled with Oz after making the worst mistake a girl could possibly make, which is making out with Xander) at the lunch table discussing birthday things and wearing another top tier stripes-across-the-sleeves 90s jumper. I may be detecting a hint of mohair here but it might also just be VHS resolution fuzz.

Ever wondered what "Being smug over having absent parents" looks like? This is it.
