I’m not sure what to say about this orange dress. I’m not sure if I love it or hate it. I guess it’s really not that bad… so maybe I love it. Melanie is staying true to this 50s vibe still. I’ve gotta say, the dress is pretty bold for a regular old day at school. But maybe not in the 80s. And then, Melanie joins the Have Nots in the streets for a movie night. It feels like we don’t ever get to go out into the city with the kids. I personally am completely fascinated by it because I’ve never lived in a city, and scenes like this just trip me out. Melanie wears a grey sweater and a floral skirt, and I’m kinda diggin this outfit; it’s not too annoying. Finally, she is still living in this retro fantasy land in this blue cardi and pink pedal pushers.

Just like her counterpart, Melanie here is publicly shamed for wearing underwear like a normal human being. I love that defeated look on her face!

Melanie delivers.. Melanie realness… in a typical floral button down with a tie and sort of a bad hair day. Then, turnt up for the party, she too seems to have borrowed her dad’s jacket which she wears over a poppin’ green sweater.

Your Melanie moment today includes her usual charmingly dorky haircut and a big floral button down shirt with khakis.

Oh, poor Grandma Wheels. We never get to see her smile. Wheels really puts her through a lot this episode. It’s amazing how long she went without giving up on him. So I guess these shots I captured of her are all from one big long day. She wears a floral blouse and throws on a jacket to run out into the world and find Wheels.

Nancy is wearing an oversized white tee, and I think this floral piece is over top of it, like some sort of floral suspenders/overalls. I can’t tell for sure, but it’s interesting.

Your Melanie Moment today is an assortment of reaction faces to Kathleen no doubt, while sporting this deeply colored floral shirt with a blue tie and green skirt.

Uh oh, it’s the Melanie formula but in pastel! Much better, imo.

Today Melanie sports a mint green top that has very strange length sleeves. It’s like they’re long to give the illusion that the shirt is more oversized than it is? Anyway, her tie is a nice berry color which is a bit more pleasant than the harsher red she tends to lean toward. And she adds a final pop with a floral skirt.

For the dance, Melanie puts a new twist on her usual outfit formula – she untucks her blouse, giving her look more of that “pajama”, “just-rolled-out-of-bed” vibe.

Doris is looking especially festive and tropical. She hardly ever shows her arms! She’s wearing an all-over print of blue, red, and green floral over a black background.
