Here we are, in Ellie’s suck era. Like, she sucks. And also, as Alex once called her, she’s “a suck”. She’s traded in her crimper for a waver, she’s simping over a f*ckboy, and she’s cringily playing the drums. First she’s shown in a long sleeve shirt under short sleeve shirt under long sleeve shirt (Family Guy reference anyone?) Then we see her in her O-ring choker. And now let’s talk about THE outfit. Even though Ellie is already being drained of her style and personality at this point, I do enjoy this outfit and the *jaw drop* reveal they do of it. However I just noticed the sleeves don’t look very conducive to drumming. So what they’ve done with Ellie’s style here, is she’s basically a normie, but in darker colors. Though subtle, this dress is very cool with the off-the-shoulder sleeves, corset buttons, and ruffly layered skirt. I actually feel a bit sorry for her right here. She was so hopeful.

Introducing Diane. This utter babe is apparently 22. When am I finally gonna look 22? (Ok I looked her up and apparently she really was 24 at the age of filming this. Not trying to say she looks old but she looks very womanly, like in the best possible way.) Diane is for some reason interested in Joey. She states a good case for it though. She’s tired of dating boys. Fair enough. Imagine dating a 22-year-old dude. Anyway, I really like Diane. She’s a ray of sunshine in Joey’s life. Although I do prefer Joey + Sidney.

First Diane wears a pink tank. Then she’s at Joey’s in a silvery, shiny tank with a cami underneath. For the wedding, since I guess she is a bridesmaid, she wears this pinky spaghetti strap cocktail dress and a bun. And finally, she wears a rainbow basket purse and a tight-fitting top with a tie at the collar. I definitely had some shirts like this.

Our BABE of Season 5 is back! Okay, tbh there are many babes in S5. But I just love Emma’s era here. Her hair is bouncy; she’s out of those 90s bangs and excessive athleisure wear. First she’s in her PJs which consist of a spaghetti strap tank and PJ pants. Then she wears a white v-neck layered over a cami, with a shell necklace. Her style so interestingly conveys “yeah I’m a hottie but I also love the environment.” Maybe it’s all the earth tones. Speaking of earth tones, the next ‘fit is this sweater that ombre transitions from beige to brown, paired with brown pants. This is where she condemns Manny. But as we can see, that doesn’t last long because here they are the next day holding hands at school. Oh lord, the chest ruffles on this shirt. Not to blog but I was the QUEEN of chest ruffles in college in the late 2000s. Emma makes it boho by adding this leather tie belt to her low-rise jeans.

Emma, the sexual being, is seeming extra mature and confident in this episode for some reason, even though she’s really just there as Manny’s sidekick for once. First she’s in a jean jacket and a floral cami. Then she’s still decked out in Lululemon as she helps Manny try on dresses. And for the dance, she wears a black spaghetti strap dress, which is… not very Emma, I don’t know. And her hair is.. well, it’s curled. I gotta say it does look awkwardly realistic. Though isn’t her mom a hairdresser? Where was she?

We get to spend some more time today with sweet Early Darcy. First she’s here in Spirit Squad wearing a spaghetti strap tank, then she’s also seen in her uniform. Then she’s in a green tee that shows us a little secret… Darcy is a Taurus. I can totally see it. And finally at the dance, she wears a strapless lacy dress with a pearl necklace.

Emma is all recovered from her gonorrhea, but the reputation lives on. She looks really pretty here in class wearing some layered tanks and a skirt. Chris insults her, and then outside, she really truly does look upset. She wears a khaki jacket and looks freaking exhausted. Next we get a closeup of the toes – which is here because nail polish IS fashion, right? And she wears a pink robe, then a large white shirt for tie-dying. Wait, why are we tie-dying in white? Whatever. She’s also got on khaki capris. For ninja night she wears some dark athleisure. And finally, it’s practically all-khaki-everything with this jacket, skirt, and tan shoes. The dynamic between her and Chester was interesting. I love how she was so unintimidated by him, wish we could have seen more.

S4E14: Secret, Part 1
Aired: 2004

It’s time for our BJ queeeeen, yeeessss! Ya know… Emma was experimenting. That’s normal, that should be fine, right? Idk why they had to portray it as such a morally bad decision here on the show. But, I mean, I guess her decision to experiment wasn’t coming from the right place. She was in a bad spot. But on the other hand, does it need to come from the right place?

Anyway, she sure had mastered looking dead inside these days, huh? Maybe this was just the thing she needed to bring her back to life! lol. Okay okay, let’s get on with the fashion. First she is in “semi-dress” rehearsal wearing some layered tanks. She looks super tall next to Alex and Emma, right? For all I know she’s about 5’7, so it looks like bad girls club is just super shirt. Emma’s bangs look…ok. And her hair is flat. Her clothes are extremely tight; I do remember those days. And of course, her pants are LOW. I guess this is a really good example of where Emma is in life. She’s still wearing those earthy Emma colors, and she’s still carrying the usual bag, so it’s like she’s still herself deep inside, but her style is drained of creativity. Outside she wears a jean jacket to make it a Canadian tuxedo, and sports these little flimsy headphones. Also had to show you that cell phone, wow. The final few shots are really just more boring Emma clothes, then another dress-like rehearsal, and also a little shot of that infamous bracelet. Oh yeah, the final fit with the jean skirt and the Airwalks is super cute.

I wish the bracelet thing had continued, even if in the background. Like maybe showing people wearing them. It would have been awesome to keep the legacy going too, like having Next Class kids doing the bracelet thing. Or at the very least, Esme having some on her wrists or something.

Here’s a Sally that is not to be confused with Dr. Sally. No, this is Skanky Sally, Ashley’s soon-to-be Aunt Sally. She is a tanning bed goddess with long Sun-In-lightened hair, prancing around in tube tops and talking in her little high-pitched baby voice. I don’t think I really trust her because even though she seems nice and social, she’s likely a bit conniving. First she wears a limey ruffly tank (layered, of course) with jeans. Then to the rehearsal dinner she’s got on a strapless white and pink floral dress.

Emma is seen briefly with her thin curled 90s bangs and two spaghetti strap tanks layered atop each other, because the 2000s was layers.

Ah yes, Charlie. Not to be confused with Fiona’s Charlie who we will meet much later. This is Mr. O’s girlfriend, and she is HOT. She’s way too hot for Mr. O actually. She’s got this golden brown hair, sultry shimmery 00s makeup, and a red tank. And she is suave too – or as JT would say, “swav-ay”.
