Smells Like Grunge Again

[ediewho]

^^^Milo is a friend of mine!!!! well it was some years ago...although we have lost touch since she launched her career... I remember when i was studying in London one summer and getting a mag and emailed her like like: "do you know ive seen you in a mag in London!!!???" I love when good people get what they deserve... we were blog friends some years ago when blogging wasn't as popular...haha but we emailed each other too... Love her... She's got a golden heart... I hope shes doing fine ...


Definitely i was waiting for a grunge revival... well its just like the last time that it was some cultural explosion so powerful hahaha...but the name is just relative... everything comes from punk/rock thing in this line... i think it cannot be the same now everything is so clean and grunge was dirt

I couldn't say it any better.

The looks shown here are to grunge what Alice Dellal is to punk; a clean glamorized version.

^ Well said guys.

There is nothing punk about Alice Dellal. She just wears leather and has a funky haircut, and that doesn't equal punk.
In the same way, wearing denim and flannel and doc martins doesn't suddenly make you "grunge", especially not if you're doing all this and then going home to your decked out apartment and listening to Lady GaGa.

We need to come up with something new rather than just rehashing everything. It's boring. Punk was about a time and a place and so was grunge. 'Bringing it back' doesn't make any sense.

I don't know if I'd go that far. Number (N)ine, in its brilliant run, reinterpreted elements of punk and grunge that were neither exactly like the original nor too sanitized; they maintained the feel of the original while adding some subtle luxe touches.

The runway styling is a bit over the top; here's how I wore the denim jacket from the "About A Boy" collection (S/S 07). I was not going for a particular grunge or punk look, but there are (I intended) elements of both.

Stars that is such a beautiful ed, so romantic!
I often dress similarly, so I guess I've been grunge all along without knowing it, haha!

[Aqua Tofana]

I've got my new inspiration style. <3

I totally love the hair style from that decade... the 90s... ( no, im not joking... like Ryan Adams said in a personal video blog (again true story)... "I play in a punk rock band i dont have to wash my hair everyday..." and I personally love that fact )

haha. so true. most of my friends wash their hair once a week. and they aren't grunge.

[ediewho]

if there is a sign of "grunginess" is the stripes t shirts all over...
