Bunheads, you guys. Bunheads. You gotta get on this ABC Family train.
Come to think of it, ABC Family is also the reason I had this weird three year obsession with the Gilmore Girls at an age too embarrassing to report (still think Jess Mariano is the DREAMIEST). And then I had that shameful two year obsession with Gossip Girl (Dan, you guys? Really? Dan fucking Humphrey?) and then this year I got oddly obsessed with how badly the show ended and then eventually I found this finale recap and it strangely made everything better.
And now I kinda love Bunheads and I'm really embarrassed about it, but apparently not embarrassed enough to not talk about it on a completely public blog. Sometimes I watch adult tv shows* too. Really**.
Which led to this email:
Which leads to this post.
So, you know, if you're not into this cotton candy puff of a show, there's really nothing for you here. Sorry dudes.
Onward. Let's contemplate together.

The amount of girl power in this image is overwhelming.
Sibling trouble (although with a dense, terrible-at-acting brother instead of a scoliosis-suffering twin sister). Kind of adrift until discovering her kickass side. Roller derby is way cooler than soccer, Abby, get with the times. Also, amazing crushed velvet dress on that cover.
Most likely to benefit from some serious time in therapy. Most likely to get drunk at a high school party and throw up in the bushes. Most likely to run away from home. To be honest, I can't figure out whether Sasha is Sunny Winslow or Cokie Mason or Stephanie Green from Sleepover Friends (because as Lauren pointed out, they both have their own houses).
Millie Stone is obviously adult Kristy Thomas. If you disagree you're just not paying attention.
* Speaking of totally adult tv shows: I have a lot of concerns about Girl Meets World, the first of which being that I totally conceptualized that show on my elementary school playground and I think somebody owes 8 year old Kim a LOT of money.
** Sometimes I also read adult books. But not very often, apparently.

OMG couldn't agree more, about all of it. Gilmore Girls, Gossip Girl (I would have believed Jenny over Dan, but I still miss it), and I love Bunheads, and also recently developed an addiction to Pretty Little Liars. (addiction is an understatement. Less than a week ago I hadn't watch a single episode, and now I'm also caught up to current.)
I was sort of doing this in my head with that show, but I always see Claudia when I look at Emily, and it hurts my heart a bit that she's not more artsy. (Yeah, pathetic, I know.) But Spencer as Kristy and Hanna as Dawn? Def. I think Aria could give Jenny a run for her money in the Stacey category, though.
BSC for life, man.

LOVE your blog. What a delight to see your latest analysis! It was a treat to see in my Google Reader (RIP soon).
In any case, since you're in Northampton, I hope you are going to Ann Martin's talk tomorrow at Smith College. She's donating her literary papers to Smith's archives. I can't begin to imagine what kind of gems are in her notes!

I haven't seen that but am hugely into PLL. On that note, Aria=Claudia +Stacey --artsy wardrobe choices and a penchant for older guys. Spencer=Kristy--athletic, type A and the leader of the group. Hannah is a bit of an amalgam too. Fashion-wise, she's a Stacey--more into the trendy and up-to-date. Plus she has the divorced-parents situation. Personality-wise she's very sassy, so perhaps a mixture of Kristy's blurt-it-out frankness and Claudia's humor. And the other one...Emily? Of course a Mary Anne. She's the most unassuming of the bunch but she comes into her own now and then.

I love Bunheads and hadn't even THOUGHT about it. But you're right about all of it.

Oh what fun it is to sight miniature designer handbags during the holiday seasons. In addition to the fact that fun-sized designer classics are extremely adorable longchamp outlet, they're rationally sized for your holiday celebration essentials. I would be replica gucci the first to say that totes and large satchels are more replica handbags canada practical for everyday use, but miniature timeless pieces such as the Pashli Satchel by 3.1 Phillip Lim make great alternatives to customary night time clutches.
The Pashli Satchel has recently been a favorite style amongst fashionista's due to its sleek design and edgy hardware (check out it's debut here: Phillip Lim “Pashli” Mini longchamp outlet Satchel). What a perfect time for Lim to unveil the Mini Pashli in an authentic Holiday Red. The hue is a perfect seasonal red and with its muted gold-tone hardware, without a doubt, will embellish your festive look finely. Pebbled chanel replica leather provides more plush to this satchel allowing more flexibility in getting things in/out of your bag, or in my case, more elasticity in stuffing this little mini to the max. Carry as arm candy with its miniature rolled handles louis vuitton replica or off-the-shoulder by means of its detachable body strap. The Miniature Pashli carries a very reasonable $650 price tag and can be purchased online through: FORWARD FASHION.
