Kathleen’s mom has a busy schedule of stumbling around and passing out, and that requires a comfortable wardrobe. We see her wearing an assortment of oversized shirts and peasant skirts to allow for comfortable blackouts.

At the start of the episode, Kathleen is wearing an awesome button down top with a childlike color combo of stripes: red, yellow, and blue. She’s got a red mid-length pencil skirt to match. Also, I didn’t clearly capture it, but she’s got 2 berets/hair clips in her hair. Interesting. I remember doubling up on half-ponytails with hair ties, but not clips.

Next, she wears the same skirt again, with her signature white socks and black loafer things, and she tops it all of with a red and checkered shirt and red headband. In my high school, she might have been sent to the office for wearing “excessive color” (yes, that was a thing, apparently a gang symbol we wanted to avoid).

In more excessive color as she tries to get her drunkass mom to come to Quest for the Best, Kathleen wears a blue and white striped shirt tucked into a blue peasant skirt, topped with a white headband.

And lastly, Kathleen wears the light yellow top we saw her (and Steph) wearing earlier this season. With a ponytail that says IDGAF anymore.

The twins are both wearing black and white today. But it was nearly impossible to capture it. I did manage this one image of Erica in this t-shirt with a giant face on it. I don’t know if this face is supposed to be someone in particular, because I am no 80s expert just yet. She completes the look with a head scarf, white jeans, and white and black tennies.

Like BLT, Doris sports a lot of yellow this episode. To me this looks like the same exact shirt, with the same exact gold earrings, and just different scarves.

Diana has great style, I’m bummed we hardly get a good view of her. I was in love with this red vest over a white button down and white ruffly skirt, accessorized with a black belt, a white hair clip, and white flats. The concept of white shoes is so fascinating, since shoes are the item of clothing that get the dirtiest!

Caitlin wears this awesome colorblock top of red, blue, and purple with a red midi-length pencil skirt and tiny gold hoop earrings. The more I see this shirt, the more I really want it.

I couldn’t make out what this shirt  says, but it’s kind of a weird combo to have stripes and words on one shirt.

I really enjoy this dark pink drapey shirt with a pale pink skirt, and of course white tennies and a Caitlin headband.

Caitlin is steaming with jealousy when she finds out Rick walked Kathleen home. Her teal colored graphic tee is cute, with of course, gold hoops and a headband.

Ms. Avery is here to lead the Quest for the Best team to victory! First we’ve got her in the usual trenchcoat dress, but she brightens it up with a floral scarf! Regardless, I still can’t get over the fact that this dress looks like outerwear. We would be burnin up in something like that any time of year where I live.

Oh yay! The dress Ms. Avery wore to the big dance in season 1! It looks very beauty-queen with this updo and white accessories.

And finally, we close with Avery’s attire for Quest for the Best. I totally love this, it looks incredibly comfortable. Actually, she’s dressed a lot younger today, more like a student. Long flowy blue peasant skirt, and an oversized yellow button down. Lovely.

“Arthur Kobalewscuy” and “Fashion” – 2 terms that don’t seem to go together, right? Well, everyone has a fashion. Just like everyone has a diet.

You may recall that in the first picture, Arthur is calling someone else a nerd, and it’s hilarious. He’s sporting his housekey necklace, some kind of sports t-shirt, and some awesome blue patterned shorts. In the second shot, he’s wearing this blue t-shirt, and at first I thought it was some kind of gross v-neck, but the reality is actually grosser – this is an overstretched neck.

Fresh new episode!

I’m pretty sure these are different days, but after starting to watch DJH closely, I’ve realized that time continuation isn’t really something they stick to. Seriously, I see the same clip of kids walking into the school twice in the same episode! Anyway, These patterned shorts are seriously tacky, in the best way. Especially with the school sweater. But I don’t know, the half-cutoff sleeve t-shirt is quite impeccable too.
