Aired: 2002

We are gathered here in Spike’s macaroni orange home to view her ensembles for this episode. First she wears her hair either slicked back or combed back, and a scoop neck tee with half-length sleeves. And I’ll always remember her Elvis Costello outfit. I think I was like, an actual fan of it back in the day. It’s a set of matching shirt and pants. The shirt is a very pale blue ribbed tank that has this zipper down the front, and whatever you call this kind of neckline I don’t know. Then the pants are almost 70s-reminiscent, khaki and flared with a stripe down the leg in that matching blue color. I thought it was super cool. Oh god, I just realized, my last Snake post where they are making out at the end, that’s after the concert. Spike wore this cool getup to go the concert and Snake literally wore a teaching outfit. OMG.

For our miscellaneous shots today, I first grabbed this dude in a gingham shirt and also, like huge bright yellow shorts, a few other baggy outfits in the background. Then, is this wonderful example here, one of the best fashion moments from the halls of DCS – the dudes with the mullets. When Paige is asked, what is a mullet, she points to them and growls, “THAT.” And this dude on the right definitely has a prize winning mullet. And I think it’s a requirement that a mullet must pair with denim. And the dude on the left is like a rebel/punk kinda guy who actually looks a lot like Johnny DiMarco (but thankfully we don’t have to think about him for several more years).  Then, Angie’s day care teacher is watching Craig who is definitely acting as creepy as possible – I captured her because she’s got those awesome skinny 2000s eyebrows, yes queen! As I’m writing this on the blog, it’s October, the month I indulge in shaving off my brows for costume purposes, so I’ve been having fun drawing those 2000s brows on my own face. And finally, Joey is trying to sell a car to this nice looking couple dressed in traditional cultural garb, which I will not even attempt to identify, but it’s beautiful.

Welcome back, Ashley! I love goth Ashley but it’s also bittersweet to know this is one of the last few times we’ll see “normal” Ashley. So, she’s still being shunned this year after taking ecstasy at the end of year party last year. She’s wearing this 3/4 sleeve top that has like, a scene perhaps? on the front but the sleeves are black. Her hair has gotten longer, and she still sports that cross body bag with her little phone tucked in the front pocket. Then we have a little shot of her wearing red, my favorite color on her.

Wow, I can’t believe we’re already at the end of Season 1! And this episode is a whopper. I love it. And we kick off here with the star of the ep herself, Ashley. First she’s in a red v-neck long sleeve tee, and one of those zigzag headbands – and she’s let her mushroom hair out to breathe. (For the record, I call it a mushroom cut out of total admiration.) She completes the look with some black pants.

And then, for the party, she wears this navy tank, a grey wraparound cardi, a 90s lookin necklace, and a stupid waist apron that she never takes off even though she literally hasn’t cooked anything. But I guess they wanted her to have some kind of pocket to store her drugs in and lord knows women’s clothing don’t have any pockets. Her hair is fluffier than ever and she wears a spot of shimmery eyeshadow on her lids. Oh yeah I also got a shot of her nice grandma nails, holding that little ecstasy pill which she’s about to drop right down her throat to REALLY get the party started. And I can’t help but laugh every time she stumbles out of that bedroom after snogging (which I first tried to spell like ‘schnogging’) Sean. She FINALLY took off the apron, she untied her cardi, and her gigantic purple bra strap is hanging out. (Oh yeah, I’m pretty sure she took off the apron while dancing and spun it over her head like a helicopter.)

And finally, the next morning, she’s wearing her pajamas and slippers. I don’t know anyone that actually sleeps in those where I live. It’s too hot. Anyway, I love this episode because, well, Ashley really did screw up like painfully bad, but you also feel sorry for her.

S1E13: Cabaret
Aired: 2002

We’ve begun a new episode! How sad that we usually start with Ashley but then have to end with Toby? Sad fashion-wise at least. I’m sorry but these Degrassi boys don’t dress very interestingly right now (except for JT). So Cabaret is a super fun episode, I’m looking forward to getting into this. First, we don’t have to miss out on Ashley’s mushroom hair, as she wears it half down to play her funeral dirge for Terri and encourage her to sing along. Then she wears a lavender 3/4 sleeve polo thing, and it looks like her hair is pulled into a half ponytail and then full ponytail, you know what I’m talking about? I don’t know if there’s a name for that. Next, I friggin love Ash in red. She wears a red cowlneck sweater, a black miniskirt, and boots. Finally, she confronts “Paige and Terri” the band in an almost floor length denim jacket and hoop earrings.

So until now Ashley’s hair has been flipped under, but it looks like she’s trying something new and flipping it out instead! I remember wishing my hair would flip out, but it’s pretty fine and I could never get it to cooperate. She’s wearing her 3/4 sleeve lilac colored polo, some kind of khakis, hoop earrings, and a puka shell necklace. The next day she wears a dark grey long sleeve collared shirt, and Spinner puts bugs in her lunch.

So here are some minor random characters and other miscellaneous shots. First is these people from the soap opera PMSing Emma is crying along with. This dude, his hair looks like, the hair satan would have. His lady friend has nice overplucked eyebrows and frosty eyeshadow. Then is this freaky pedophile at the mall, wearing a suit with a very outdated tie. But I gotta say, he was cast really well because he’s creepy as hell. Then I just took this shot of randos on the front steps to demonstrate more of the baggy clothing motif. I definitely did not see this many vests when I was in school during this time, but oh right, that’s because it doesn’t get cold here. And finally I threw in this girl with another unfinished ponytail.

Yay, another Ashley episode! (I’m saying “yay” genuinely because I actually do like Ashley – early Ashley, at least.) Her first outfit from top to bottom includes – hair pulled half back, hoop earrings, a red tee with small grommet details around the collar, a black cardigan, and that blue and red maxi skirt. Awesome middle school awkwardness. Next, she smiles sentimentally as her dad talks about getting blown up to her class. She wears a pale blue ribbed turtleneck. Then, suddenly the grade 8 girls trio are on the floor hockey team, never to be spoken of again, (ok ok maybe it’s just PE) and Ash wears a long sleeve, shorts, and knee-high tube socks. And finally, you know this color scheme is symbolic af. Ashley wears all grey to mourn the loss of her father’s heterosexuality. (Haha I know that’s not actually why she’s upset, but I couldn’t resist.)
