FROM THE ARCHIVES: suburban brat
still vibing on this aesthetic
Hi my fave people,
welcome to What Is This Regarding? where we take a critical lewk at wtf’s going on around us. this wk I'm reaching into the 2021 archives for an aesthetic that STILL RINGS TRUER THAN EVER: SUBURBAN BRAT
Why?
bc i spent my long wknd in the suburbs and also some of you are new here and i gotta keep this NL true to its early days.
TUMBLE IN TIME WITH ME AND LET’S ENJOY THIS SLETTER FROM 7/8/2021
I'm feeling lit from within after a trip to the outlets just outside of Palm Springs. ✅ yes i acquired an elite mall walking chunky sneaker in a dad-approved colorway, ✅ yes I embraced more deeply the concept I've been toying with my whole life and only recently have re-engaged with: suburban brat™️ (NOTE: this was a rebranded spin-off of the original archetype: th0tmitzvah).
So today, my fuegiest friends, we’re exploring quick-hit thots on the Suburban Brat™️ lifestyle. LFG!!!!!
1. INSIGHT: Brianna Wallace is the ultimate Suburban Brat™️
Nothing says brat like lipgloss and vacation on your daddy's resort. Can you say Paris Hilton? LOVES IT!! My hot take: layered tanks are back, partial up-do's are a lewk2consider, and saying "thank you" when you really mean "i hate you" is a forever mood.
2. Mall glamour is never not it.
Remember the days of hitting the mall with your 17 BFFs to cop matching Abercrombie graphic cap-sleeve tees? I couldn't help but feel the nostalgia pangs whilst seeing today's teens hit the outlet malls in socks and 'stocks Gucci slides drinking colorful blended bevs at the Starbucks kiosk. Ah, to be young and in love with mall brands!!! Embrace the fountain, drop a lucky penny in, and wish for glamour!!!
3. Bookworm aesthetic is back - but this time in the form of #booktok
There's a new (and unlikely) brand of Suburban Brat™️ in town and it comes in the form of a pretentious, turtleneck-or-oversized-pastel-suit-clad bookworm. Yes. You read that right. She is an intellectual. She isn't just about lipgloss and rhinestones, she has depth. She reads a whole book, front to back, in one day *and major key: ignores everyone while doing so*. Get your folding chair ready and head to the park in a lewk that says "I'm hotter than you AND smarter."
4. BONUS: hot shopping ideas for the Suburban Brat™️ ~ UPDATED FOR TIMELINESS AND HOTNESS!!!
