In honor of the 21st anniversary of Clueless the other week, naturally I decided to watch the movie on Netflix. If you haven't seen it yet, you're 21 years late to this party. Who can resist a young Paul Rudd, like seriously? While I was watching the movie, I was inspired to write this article about things we need to bring back. After all this movie is basically the original Mean Girls, one of the most quotable movies, but Clueless definitely deserves some recognition for it's iconic fashion and classic lines.
1. Plaid Skirts
I'm not talking a matching set, even thought they both totally work it, but a simple plaid skirt is so classic.
2. "Snob and a half."
Can't think of a good comeback? Well take a page from the Queen of Comebacks and call them a snob and a half.
3. "As if."
I honestly say this on the daily, but no one ever gets the reference, which is slightly disappointing, so let's change that.
4. Button Up Skirts
These are actually making a slow, but steady comeback. Let's speed it up a bit, because honestly just look how cute they are.
5. Make Overs
I'm 19 and still waiting for my friends to give me a make over. This should be a normal occurrence among friends.
6. Knee Socks
Plaid is obviously a staple in Cher's wardrobe, but knee socks really make this outfit, so I'm starting a petition to bring this back this fall.
7. "Totally buggin'."
Basically this phrase is a way of saying either "I'm totally freaking out" or "totally upset". So go ahead, expand your vocabulary.
8. "Way harsh."
Don't be afraid to tell you friends that something they said struck a chord din you, and this is a good way to do just that.
9. Putting Effort into Dates.
Sure, Christian turned out to be gay, but Cher still put a lot of effort into their "date", which is definitely something people lack today.
10. Collared Shirts
Ok, sure this outfit is a little strange, but she oddly makes it work? So why not try bring them back?
