"Try not to kill people"

As with most people of a certain age, Buffy the Vampire Slayer was (IS!) a huge deal to me on so many levels, and after discovering this awesome Tumblr called Buffy Outfits I suddenly remembered how much style inspiration my teenage self got from this amazing series. It should come as no surprise that the character I wanted to dress like the most was Willow Rosenberg.
Since I no longer live in the late 90s and now have the magical ability to screencap (oh god remember VHS? remember it? I still have all my favourite episodes on video tape. Thank you BBC.) I can think of no better use of my time than writing a post dedicated my most coveted Willow ensembles.

Let's start with my absolute favourite:

You wish you looked this good after waking up next to a dead body

I've been getting a lot of hits from people looking for information about Oji Garu/Ojikawa lately.

There doesn't seem to be a whole lot out there on the internet, which is weird since I definitely keep seeing Oji girls pop up in Japanese fashion mags and granddad style staples always seem to go down great with the fashion crowd. I would have expected it to become quite big online and maybe even trickle down to the UK, but alas, it's still very much a niche thing. I guess the elderly are an underrepresented target group even on the internet. Poor things! Maybe in a year or so? I hope they can wait that long.

So yeah, I guess it's up to me to uncle it up and keep you updated on what to wear if you want to be a real old man girl. Trust me, I'd know. I've been playing chess in the park and adjusting the thermostat since I was eight years old.

So sit back, put on your favourite oldies radio station and enjoy my guide to Oji Garu: Part 2!
