We are gonna finish off this episode with Spinner – AKA, “Sticks”. Or is it Stix? Who knows. Anyway, he’s the biggest jerk of the whole band right now, antagonizing Ashley. Why y’all like Spinner so much? I may dislike him, but I love his hair and trashy style at the moment. Tees, ball bearing necklaces, baggy pants, chains, and piercings.
Ellie’s reaction to the shooting is soooo weird, it’s like she literally does not care. She seems impatient that her boyfriend isn’t “over it” yet and that everyone is “still talking about it”. Really bizarre. Ya know, I would have thought it might hit her hard, maybe even cause her to relapse with her own dark struggles. Buuuut I guess not? Anyway, her clothes are really cool in this episode. She’s wearing a text-covered tee with a chain necklace, a red plaid skirt, some flare pants underneath, and a rad half-n-half zip up hoodie. Perfect outfit for the beach, lol. But hey, she didn’t know she’d be there. I’m really glad we have this relic frozen in time, the style of the mall goth, memorialized forever on this show.

We gotta lotta Ellie to work through today! This is the episode where she decides to move out of her mom’s house. Because her mom is a drunk and almost burned the house down. So she “moves in” with Sean. Sadly it’s more like “crashes there for a while”. First we see her black flare jeans, grommet belt, and arm bands that she fell asleep in. She realizes it’s morning, and she scrambles to put in her leather jacket and grabs her Emily the Strange bag. She also has her hair in a middle part and clipped. At school, it looks like the had the chance to change clothes first because she’s now wearing a chain necklace, pinstripe pants, and a black studded shirt with armbands. She also has this twisty hairdo going on again. I’ve never actually seen this in the wild so I feel like the stylist was just experimenting or something. Looks like it took forever though. The next scene is Ellie in her PJs while the house is aflame. She wears a grey 3/4 sleeve shirt with classic PJ pants. And I must say, her hair looks amazing. The NEXT outfit is spectacular, a crative combo of pink with her blacks. She wears a chain necklace again, and this mesh shirt with pink striping deails. We can also see that triple-layer grommet belt she’s getting such good use out of, which she wears over a cargo-style skirt. Also, the knee high wedge boots can be seen really well here if you aren’t blinded by pasty naked Spinner! Ellie’s house party outfit here is a DREAM. I love this deep v and tons of corset tying up and down the front. Finally we wrap it up with a darling tank + off-shoulder mesh shirt combo. Gotta love Ellie’s wardrobe.
Idk why but I guess I like when Jay actually walks the walk and does something crazy. Not saying I condone violence, but since this is a fictional tale, can I say he is kind of a badass? He wears a mechanic-looking jacket, a backwards hat, a chain necklace, baggy pants, and bulky Nikes (or something similar). Also, he tries on Rick’s glasses… ohh he looks funny.
JT’s commercial is wicky-wicky-whack apparently. Actually I think everyone would really like it in real life. He gets dressed super cool in a jersey, chain, and hat. SUPA FLY FRIES! Other than that, he’s wearing colors that are increasingly more drab compared to the grade 7 JT. Just some browns, tans, khakis, and a pop of blue here and there. Maybe it’s symbolic of how his vibrancy is slowly degrading.

Here’s the collection of random shots and group shots from this episode. We see some baggy pants, chunky shoes, sparkly chains, horizontal stripes, scrunched hair, zip up hoodies, and Hell Hath No Fury in all their glory. Also this announcer guy at the mic, I don’t know who he is but I feel like he’s some kind of a famous athlete, like a basketball player.
We’ve arrived at Chris, whom I believe to be the one referenced in the episode’s title, “This Charming Man”. Chris’s style makes it absolutely clear what he’s into – music. This first shirt has headphones on it. He wears a bucket hat and chain to accessorize. Next he’s in a blue newsboy hat and a dark wash baggy Canadian tuxedo. And of course those giant headphones. Next, he’s in another newsboy-type of hat but this time it’s backwards. He wears more baggy stuff, and more denim.

Chris has a really distinct style which you will get to see more of later. Lots of denim, lots of hats, always headphones. Here we see him in – would we go so far as to call this a bucket hat? I’m bad with hat names, you guys know this. We’ve also got a chain and a greyish jean jacket.
