Does that mean I can have your Sylvanian Family collection?

Just making my annual little blog post/tiny scream into the internet void to announce that Orla is my favourite Derry Girl (surprising no one) and I would very much like to think me choosing to dedicate a post to my long lost Talkboy in 2021 resulted in it making an appearance onto the show. 

Bit confused by how late 2000s that t-shirt is though. It's very trickle down Cobrasnake.

Spent too much time on Tumblr, discovered the dark academia tag and now I’m getting mega nostalgic over my past London “aesthetic” photography tendencies so of course I am sharing these unpublished winter scenes with you:

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.

Guys! Guys! Remember like, pogs and stuff?

Like most people that were sentient beings in the 90s I've been taking many rides on the nostalgia train lately. Soulwax are one of the first bands I remember being ridiculously impressed with when I entered teenagehood and really started getting into music. The fact that they were Flemish -like having the same accent as me created some sort of mutually acknowledged bond or something- and were stuck presenting some terrible TMF show dedicated to "alt" music (does anyone remember? @lter8 or some terrible pre noughties slang name I think? it was awkward and amazing.) resulting in some brilliant Dewaele brother video banter just made me love them that much more. This song still holds up quite well I think.

"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
