This is an episode chock-full of Melanie, and she so gracefully exemplifies, as Emma Nelson might say, “general pubescent awkwardness”. Her color palette is never something that really resonated with me, but it’s definitely distinct. Let’s jump right in.

Outfit 1 is a maroon cardigan over a blue button down with a weird neck bow thing. The kicker is these crazy plaid pants which she has cuffed to a confusing length, to show off her tall black socks and her little rusty-colored oxfords.

Outfit 2 is the one where she’s really trying to pick up Snake. She’s got a plan to execute and has dressed to seduce. She sports a long sleeved pumpkin colored button down, with a navy floral vest and matching tie. To complete the look she wears a navy skirt and a nice dark red shade of lipstick on her teeth.  But seriously though, I feel really bad for Melanie when she has that lipstick on her teeth. We can all relate.

And finally, for Outfit 3, Melanie is cute as a bumblebee with this crazy black and yellow plaid skirt, yellow shirt, and red tie. Always with those harsh colors, man.

Luke is sketchin around in regular clothes of greyish shades, so as not to stand out and draw attention to all the tomfoolery he’s no doubt up to.

I hope you’re ready for a big old ray of sunshine – the nicest girl at Degrassi, Kathleen Mead herself, is gracing the pages of broomheadz once again. Always smiling.

So as usual, she’s wearing an array of unshapely, drab-colored clothes of blues, greys, and burnt orange.

Joy’s getting all psyched for Parents Night in this oversized long sleeve tee of black and white striped, with pants that are either khaki or white. I swear, one day I’ll get a closeup of you Joy, you evasive lady!

Joey’s mom is just lookin’ like an 80s urban professional woman for Parents Night with a long trenchcoat kinda jacket.

Joey’s always got this facial expression that’s like “WHAT? What do you mean you won’t eat a live goldfish?!” Enjoy this cute collage of the red beret and the usual Hawaiian shirts. What a jamboree. Gotta love the consistency. But when I was in Jr. High, someone pointed out that I wore the same shirt every Monday. OMG how mortifying. Obviously I changed my ways immediately. But here Joey gets to wear the same dang thing practically every day and no one says a thing.

I haven’t captured Joanne since 10 episodes ago – that’s not to say she wasn’t there, but I just can’t get a good shot of everybody every time. Believe it or not, there are SOME images that don’t make the cut even with my (extremely low) quality standards. But even with this lo-fi dim-lit environment we’ve got to work with, I draw a line somewhere.

But anyway, ASIDE from the quality, yes, I’ve once again run out of my alliterations that are more clunky, awkward, or contrived than not. So I’ve decided on Joanne Jewels. Whatever.

Joanne is rushing down the stairs in a large jean jacket, a t-shirt, and some khakis. Nothing to write home about but worth a look.

Oh Carol. You seem alright, but you’ve put us all in an uncomfortable situation.

First she strolls into the scene with a long green jacket, long skirt, and neck a floral bow, smilin like she belongs there. Then she waltzes in to pat us on the head while wearing her work uniform, accentuating her in all the right places, driving Arthur’s dad to pat her booty right in front of us. And finally, she has the audacity to saunter into Parents Night like some impostor, wearing a mustard blouse, that same green jacket, and another neck bow. Luckily we keep it 100 so we told her how it is right there at the entrance of the building. Last time we ever saw her. Shut DOOWWWWN

Okay on a serious note, I don’t hate Carol. I realize this was a very complicated and touchy situation for everyone. I see from everyone’s point of view, but I wrote the above paragraph from something like Arthur’s POV 😉

Caitlin is graceful and enchanting like always, even in a simple orange sweater. For Parents Night though, she kicks it up a notch and wears that corset belt with a fuschia sweater. That is one loud belt! Can you imagine wearing that in junior high? Caitlin really pulls it off though.
