Staying in during the weekend for me means scouring my hard drive for something to watch. I recently stumbled upon a copy of the ‘90s classic Clueless, and since last month was its 19th anniversary, I thought it was the perfect time for a trip back to Cher’s world. It’s just as fresh as I remember. I finally got all the jokes and references I was too young to understand at the time, and found that so many things from the movie are just as applicable today. No wonder @ModernClueless exists!
-
Of course Cher has an #OOTD app on her ~desktop~ computer. Were computers already touchscreen back then? Notice how the matchy-matchy look is trendy again!
-
One more thing that's all the craze again (or maybe it never went out of style?): juicing!
-
Look how pretty she is even with that silly face. I love how she kept playing with her hair throughout the movie.
-
"Dionne is my friend because we both know what it's like to have people be jealous of us." I didn't realize that they were both "named after great singers of the past who now do infomercials"!
-
I almost forgot about this thing boys thought was cool.
-
Josh the original hipster, growing a goatee and reading Nietzsche in the sun.
-
I don't remember being this obsessed with removing blackheads.
-
That orange she's slicing just came from the tree outside the window. Ugh, love her life.
-
A cellphone purse!
-
How cute was BB Brittany Murphy? Clueless was actually the late actress's breakout role. Hope she's rolling with her homies up there.
-
Because selfies weren't a thing back then.
-
Neither was Waze.
-
I was wondering why his voice sounded familiar! This is Jeremy Sisto, Tessa'’s dad on Suburgatory. I just knew that he was in Clueless, and that Alicia Silverstone's guesting on Suburgatory was a big deal because it was reunion for them. I didn't know he was Elton, the jerk who left Cher in the middle of nowhere!
-
Never noticed how Tai made the most of her outfit at the dance.
-
A style tip from the queen bee: "I don't rely on mirrors so I always take Polaroids."
-
"I know it sounds mental, but sometimes I have more fun vegging out than when I go partying." Totally get you, Cher.
-
That moment when she realizes that she's in love with Josh never gets old.
-
I mean, what's happening here? Caption the photo and win bragging rights!
