Spike looks super cute, cozy, and warm in this wintry ensemble. She’s got a striped sweater of greys and yellows, a dark skirt, and leggings. For a pregnant 14-year-old in a crappy situation, she sure has style!

Here Spike is in a rusty-colored cowl neck sweater, some silver earrings, and a blue plaid skirt.

Only one Spike shot for ya today. We’ve seen her wear her The Cult – Electric shirt I think 3 times in different ways. Today she just sports it like a normal t-shirt. That’s usually how I do it. Anyway, there’s no buts about it, band shirts are super cool no matter how you wear them. At least in my opinion.

Here are some blurry background shots of Spike. Her first ensemble is a cute pink-on-pink getup. Then we see her in some cute yellow plaid. And finally, she’s hanging with Liz on the steps in a giant dress-like red tee, and the trend I keep seeing between Spike and Liz: black boots with white socks. I think it’s really cool!

Much to my dismay, we only see Spike’s dress in a very dark hallway for a few short seconds. I am sure there is a proper word for this dress, but I can best describe it as a shift-dress silhouette with cap sleeves. It also seems like it might be acid wash denim. It was really cool seeing Spike wear something a little more simplistic and feminine. Just goes to show how versatile her tastes are.

Spike wears a yellow tee under a yellow overshirt, tiied at the hips with a belt. She’s also got on some white cropped pants, and some Converse! The look is completed with a few items of silver jewelry.

I was so excited when I saw that I get to cover Spike today! Unlike Snake, Joey, and other boys, she’s not monotonously repetitive! Part of me wishes I could be selective in who I cover – but don’t worry, I won’t!

I’m not sure why this shirt reminds me of a Wal-Mart worker upon first glance, but I’m very quickly able to move past it. Alright, so we’ve got an extra large banana yellow t-shirt, with a blue sleeveless shirt layered on top, with a chain necklace. And the best part is the blue and yellow paid skirt that really gives the ensemble that punky edge. It’s hard to make out, but I think she’s donned some ankle boots for this look too.

I love the rusty-pink color Spike is sporting today. She’s got a light button down, an open brown vest, a studded belt around the waist, and some darker pants. Note the super cool shoulder bag covered in patches and pins. For such a young’un, Spike really knows who she is and what she likes, and I think that is awesome! She wasn’t really the most multi-faceted character on the show, but her style begs to differ.

I loved Spike’s Doomsday Dinner outfit, but sadly I couldn’t get  better caps. She has SOME type of white band shirt as the base layer – if anyone can identify this shirt, please speak up! Over this shirt, she’s got a deep v red sweater tucked into a black and red checkered skirt, which is held up with black lacy suspenders. I think she’s also got some red tights on. An absolute dream!

The lighting was awful here, but I still thought Spike looked really cool in this collared dress, tights, and grey jacket.

Spike’s wardrobe, to me, exudes a lot of self-confidence. I love it so much. It says to me that Spike is cool with who she is. Sometimes, the way people wear their clothes, it’s  not as though they got up and *picked them out* – it’s more like, it’s just who they are. If that makes sense. I didn’t pick the clothes, the clothes picked me, if you will.

So, this red and pink combo is fantastic and perhaps one of Spike’s most recognizable ensembles. I’m not sure if her white tee is some kind of band shirt – if you know, do tell! Over the tee she wears a rusty-red vest, and pairs it with pink pants. She’s got various silver rings, bracelets, necklaces on, and some cool black earrings. It’s such a great outfit, she even attracted DJH’s sourpuss, Liz, unfortunately.

Spike really knows how to dress up a giant t-shirt. She’sdjh a total inspiration. She layers this oversized green tee over a blue shirt and piles on lots of metallic chain necklaces. She appears to be wearing blue gaucho pants as well.

Spike is hangin out with her pregnant teen homegirls for some counseling. She’s got on some converse, white pants, a super cool big t-shirt, and an open vest. Also I could not ignore the girl to her left wearing these mint-colored overalls with a matching shirt. Very… pregnant-y.

Another dreary day at school. Spike is wearing what looks to be the same white pants, with the same shoes. She’s got an oversized pink button down with a black belt and black vest on. Very cool.

Spike 7

I really liked this ensemble of a loosely-knit sweater over a white tee with a blue plaid skirt, and tons of silver chain necklaces.

Spike looks very motherly sitting in that rocking chair. Anyway, I have to fawn over this outfit. She’s got on an adorable baby pink v-neck sweater with ling pink pearls. Her capris are white with black polka dots! And she’s sporting the Chucks again. Absolutely love!

Crappy picture, sorry! Here’s Spike in a royal blue oversized sweater.

Spike 2

Yes, this is for real. Who cares about her black cardigan or white shirt – Spike is wearing a necklace… with wooden jungle animals all over it.

Spike 3

Spike finally looks a little more edgy in this getup. Although I’m at a loss for words to describe it right now.

Yes, I always look forward to my Spike posts. This outfit is immaculate. White button down under a red sweater cardigan, with a long plaid red skirt and black boots. SO awesome. I actually have a vintage long wool skirt and I’ve been wondering how to style it! Thanks, Spike!

Spike is a little toned-down in this taupe textured sweater. But you may notice she is doing that cool 80s-one-dangly-earring thing!

Spike 3

We rarely see Spike in pastel, but I love this cute checkered blue and pink top!
