Ok so I was reading an article in Buzzfeed (I mean aren't we all these days) and they had an "article" about how they loved all the clothes Baby wore in the 80's movie Dirty Dancing and wished they were in style. All I was thinking was this person must be living under a rock! I don't mean to offend those who are challenged when it comes to fashion, but for the last 2-3 years I have wanted and seen in stores everything they have talked about. All of these styles in DD are actually in style right now (except for the tights with leotard), but people are using leotards to wear with shorts or skirts now to give that clean look instead of trying to tuck your shirt in and leaving all those wrinkles that can be very unflattering. Also everyone is wearing crop tops with high waisted shorts and shirts that tie in the front and long flowy skirts which seem to always fade in and out of fashion throught the decades (you could even say centuries) and oversized sweaters! Oh my god did you not see all those oversized sweaters in Urban Outfitters and other stores last Winter and Fall! I own an oversized sweater that has come back from the 90's grunge revitalization. I just think if anyone is going to write about fashion professionally (even websites like Buzzfeed) they need to get someone who knows their stuff before they let someone write about a subject that requires an awareness of what's going on in the world. No one pays me to write but I at least follow one rule of writing. Write what you know.
