Cher Horowitz is my idol and if you've seen Clueless, you'll know why.
Clueless is one of my favourite films. If not for the iconic 90s twist on a Jane Austin classic, then ultimately for Cher's wardrobe.
♡
I could write a 5,000 word essay on why I admire Cher and why I feel Clueless is SO important but I'll just stick to the clothes....
My favourite outfit from the film is the red tartan jacket and skirt and beret -
so when I found a replica jacket for £4 in a charity shop, I snapped it up straight away. When I got home, I spent the evening cutting out the shoulder pads so it didn't look too boxy or 80s
I wear the jacket with something plain. I feel a skirt to match like Cher's would make me look like I was trying TOO hard to be her (although who doesn't want to be her?). In the picture above I'm wearing a plain navy American Apparel jersey pocket skirt with a plain navy jumper and a white blouse underneath. The satchel you can just see is my trusty Cambridge Satchel which I've used for school/college for three years and would definitely recommend.
♡
When I'm out and about, I generally have the mindset "what would Cher Horowitz/Taylor Swift/Alexa Chung/Zooey Deschanel wear?" as these are my main fashion icons (other than my 23yo sister from whom I stea....borrow garments of nigh-on every day).
♡
In June, I went to Edinburgh with college and one of my closest friends Rhea. We both covet vintage clothes and general bargains so naturally, we headed straight to the vintage shops in Grassmarket. In Armstrong's Vintage I found a beautiful genuine wool kilt for £9. I had been looking for a kilt during the day - one can't leave Scotland without a kilt (said no one but me, ever). It fit perfectly and was v v v v Cher Horowitz. Unfortunately, it was summer, so the kilt's first outing was when I met Alexa Chung on Monday - she approved.

I'm so pleased that tartan is v on trend this winter because I am obviously such a fan. As Clueless has proved, tartan will probably always keep coming back so any purchases made can be kept FOREVER.....or maybe I just feel that kilt is my soul mate.

I finish this post with one final word of advice - whenever a boy comes, you should always have something baking
