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.

This is a very Craiggy episode, so enjoy this giant fashion spread. Sadly his style isn’t TOO much to speak of, but like I’ve said before, it’s very realistic of a teenage rocker boy from the time. Not overstylized, as he’s focused on other things. He does KIND of look simulated sometimes with all these obvious yet abstract graphic “rocker” tees, like the headphones one. But I really feel like those jeans and shoes are Jake’s. And maybe that Headbangers Ball shirt too 🙂 Also, please note the outfit he wears for the wedding his band plays at. It’s like, 70s reminiscent, but this time for good reason since they’re playing “funk”. Man, what do you guys think here, when it comes to how Craig is treating Ellie? What an icky triangle.

As we often do, we wrap up this episode with Toby. Even though he has spiked hair and baggy clothes, he still looks like a nerd somehow. But yeah his style is a nice example of a neutral 2000s norm – where as JT is much more preppy.

Here’s our rando roundup from Foolin’. First is Frienship Club, looking extra creepy. Then a front steps shot featuring flared jeans and baggy jeans. Then the drugstore cashier, looking extra judgy when JT buys a pregnancy test. She’s got highlights, a side part, and side bangs. Oh and here’s this baby, who is not judging JT.

Manny is dressing super cutely and summery lately, but we don’t get to see the ‘fits really. First is this ruffly yellow tank, and next is an orange tie-dye tee. Love Manny in yellows and oranges!

Emma is around, here and there, in this episode. She’s wearing tight-fitting layers, sporting flouncy hair, and sitting with great posture.

I love Darcy and I’m very thankful that we are in a Darcy-heavy season! Don’t get me wrong, she’s totally cringe. Like, Christians can listen to Missy Elliot and make fart jokes too, yo! It’s just terrible. She displays such ignorance yet some wisdom every now and then. I guess I like her for her cluelessness and her hair extensions.

First she wears a 3/4 sleeve zip up hoodie and she rocks a deep side part with side bangs. Also low rise jeans because, what else is there? -It’s 2005! She is also sporting her famous green bag and a blue necklace. Next we get to see her in her spirit squad uniform. The next fit is yet another zip up hoodie over a peachy shirt. I guess they’re trying to show how casual a nice Christian girl can dress. Unlike her SISTER. The next outfit is a checkered blue shirt under a blue overshirt.

Okay, Paige is not really the most relatable teenager at this point. The way she gets ready for this date and waits at a bougie bar looks like the life of a 30-year-old. But hey, what do I know, I grew up in rural & suburban Alabama.

Anyway, the first outfit is the nice greasy work uniform. Then Paige wears this blue blazer that looks to be a very light/acid washed denim, which she wears over a baby blue blouse and white cami. Her teeth are also super-white. I swear, Paige looks just darling in pastels. She hurriedly gets ready for her date with Matt. She puts in a lot of effort, wearing pointy-toe feels, a black strapless skin-tight dress with a shawl, and a black necklace. She looks amazing but like a real adult. And then Matt dumps her because she showers too much.

Next, on the steps of Degrassi, Paige is wearing layers again – a floral blouse layered over a longer cami – that was such a thing. And some flare jeans, with some pointy-toe shoes that look way too uncomfortable for school. This is where she gets high with Alex before the college fair. I think this is arguably a pretty accurate representation of getting high. It’s hard to explain and hard to portray, especially since it seems to be a different experience for everyone, but I really like how they did it here in this episode.

JT has his preppy attire and hat hair for a brief moment here in the hallway. I don’t hate his style, but I don’t think it really fits him. Wish they would have kept going with the “class clown core” look. Ugh, I can’t believe I said that.
