I HAD to get this for you. Y’all. This is Amy. Alex Nunez’s best friend Amy. You’ll recognize her as we go along. For a long time I didn’t realize she was here on the show so early on! Even before Alex! She’s just an extra right now from what I see. But here’s her look, it reminds me of sexy Manny. She wears a cropped v-neck horizontally-striped sweater, hoops, and a Manny hat. I guess I’m going to have to figure out what those hats are called real soon. I mean, is this a newsboy cap? Anyway, she’s laughing at Ashley, who is the star of this episode.

Aired: 2003

Terri reads palms with a lotta jewelry, braids in her hair, and a grey v-neck under a grey zip-up hoodie. Ashley looking all hard but being all judgey. (I know it’s simply a stereotype that goths are into the dark arts but you’d at least think Ash would be a little more chill about it.)  She wears that bad midi denim pencil skirt and chunky white tennies. Oh yeah, and her prediction is that Paige is gonna die, which is soon disproven but Terri is left in the dark worrying on that. The next day she’s in a horizontally-striped tee and a hooded vest, still sporting the braids. Oh yeah, also the cross body bag. I like to point those out as much as possible till they disappear. Next we see one of those striped, long sleeve polos that are awful. I also had to grab a shot of this Blackberry because well, it’s fashion in its own way right? Next we’re wearing another zip-up hoodie, with sweatpants and those white shoes. Terri staying true to her pajama-chic style.

Hazel is the queen of headbands, hoops, and scarves right now. Her first ‘fit is a maroon headband, matching v-neck top, a pink zip up hoodie, hoop earrings, tinted shades, flare pants, and platform shoes. The next one we don’t really get to view in full, but it’s a brown beaded headband and red shirt. Next is a beige shirt, brown headband, floral scarf, flare jeans, and the platforms again. She also puts on a blue pullover when outside.

Terri is still athletic-chic as usual. First she wears a low ponytail, hoop earrings, and what looks to be a beige track jacket over a white tank. Not her best color but she’s an angel so we’ll look past it. And next is a perfectly lovely blouse with a keyhole opening which she ruins by wearing a zip up hoodie over. However, this attire is realistic af for this age at this time, so I’m not hatin.

Terri is mentioning she is Scottish, wearing a grey hooded vest over a pink tee and her hair all done up in twisties. She miraculously has the same exact hairdo the next day while wearing a pale button down. And lastly, we get a closeup of her listening to Hazel’s speech, wearing a headband and some kind of white top.

Here we are. The Hazel episode. First she wears a pink zip up hoodie with hoop earrings, a necklace, a maroon tie-dye tank, and matching headband. She’s feeling extra bitchy today, as you can tell from her facial expressions. Oh yeah, I also wanted to show you the sticker on her binder that says “Boys Lie”. It looks like it came from one of those sticker vending machines. Next she has donned a Jamaican beanie and tee for International Day. It’s really kind of sad. I love that Degrassi touches on this topic so much – not wanting to be who you are. I’m watching Marco go through the same thing right now in Season 3. Anyway, next Hazel is in a floral button down over a black tank, revealing her true Somalian heritage, featuring photos of herself in hijabs. Hijab? Sorry.

Terri’s got the B plot today! First she wears a coral button down and her hair in a twisty updo. Omg the clasp of her necklace has fallen down to the front. lol. With it she wears like, a midi pencil skirt and white tennies. Not crazy about those long denim skirts personally. Next is more twisty hair, a peachy v-neck, a beige sweater draped over the shoulders all 80s style, jean capris, and her white tennies again. She’s seen modeling a jean jacket, red turtleneck, black blazer, etc. And finally, a darling white peasant-looking button up top with another interesting updo that I don’t know how to describe.

And she tells off Mohammed which is a very iconic moment. I mean I love that this issue of body image and weight is being addressed, but I honestly think it could have been handled a little differently, a little better. I don’t know, I am just left feeling weird with the way Spinner was like “Yeah dudes prefer skinny girls but sometimes we like girls like you.” I mean… like them sometimes for what exactly? Your porn selection? What? And like, that statement was supposed to be helpful.

And the way Terri has to be like “Most girls on the planet look like this [so lower your standards]!” or something, like, you know what I mean? It seems like the main point from the episode was like, don’t worry kids, someone out there will still like you despite the fact you’re curvier! And that was the message, the end. Anyone else, or is it just me?

I don’t know, it was never really about Terri loving, embracing, and accepting herself. It was about her reacting to how everyone ELSE feels about her body. Ya know? Honestly, the main interactions were about how boys feel about her body. It’s so weird. I mean Paige was like “Oh man I would wear that skirt if I was plus size, you’re so lucky” meh but that’s it. We never really got to see Terri come to any kind of resolution. We never saw follow up. We never saw her confidence skyrocket, we never saw her SLAY the next ad campaign, we never saw her look in the mirror and smile, we never saw any change, any evolution. We just learned that some clothes come in plus size only, and some dudes like thin girls and some dudes like “girls with a figure”. Sometimes.

Hazel wears a half-length sleeve button down in a reddish shade, buttoned halfway up over a black cami. She wears dark pants and a headband with it. In this episode she and Paige are very concerned with how Terri could afford a top-of-the-line Blackberry. Next she’s seen in blue, which is quite lovely on her. And finally, a pink zip up hoodie, with of course, another headband.
