I read that Vogue thread that was psoted earlier, and I was struck by how many people in the first few pages seemed to like Dawn best. Guess she was pretty popular in Australia!

Hahaha, my mother is very petite, and she and I were the same size when I was in the sixth and seventh grades. She still wears some of my clothes, but I don't fit into hers anymore. Anyway, I played the violin in my middle school's orchestra, and every time we had a concert I would wear one of her skirts.

Lilafowler I'd do the same thing! I never wore dress clothes except for choir concerts and stuff like that so I didn't bother to buy any good clothes, I'd just grab something plain from my mom's closet. Once this snobby girl came to school wearing a dress that my mom also owned and I really wanted to tell the girl that, but now I wonder if she was just wearing her mom's clothes that day. Lol.
I thought Stacey was wearing a mini skirt in the picture of the girls all dressed up at the dance. So did she change her mind about the dress or does Mrs. McGill dress inappropriately for her age?

Oh, my mom and I would share clothes too when I was younger - blouses and things. I meant more why would Stacey choose to wear something of her mother's when she could get something much more dibble from the mall or something, and, since she is always described as being so thin, I figured her mom's dress might have been kind of hanging on her. Not a flattering look.
sparklymouse, now that I think about it it's possible this took place at the January Jamboree in Mary Anne's Makeover, not Winter Wonderland.

Unless it's a dress that belonged to her mum when she was younger...

^Well, that's also a possibility.

Stacey definitely wore the dress that was her mother's in "Mary Anne's Makeover," so there wouldn't have been a picture of it.

Does anyone remember the jeans with the zippers up the back legs? Also tight-rolling jeans?

I had the zipper jeans. Really dibble. I did the tight rolling jeans thing, too, where you like, fold over the cuff onto itself so it's reeeeeeally tight and then roll it up so that your pants are really tight at the bottom and baggier at the top. Super fresh.

Hee. If you look closely enough, sometimes the girls are wearing tight rolled jeans on the covers of the books. That was an early 90s thing, right?

Late 80's very early 90's. At least that's when it was "cool" where I live. LOL.

I read these books in the 2000s so I had no idea what they were talking about half the time. I thought leggings were tights, and I didn't get why they wore half the things that they did. I never tried to copy them, because in my 9 year old mind, I thought that only grandpas were supposed to wear suspenders. But sheep and snowmen were cool? That just seems weird to me. Their fashion sense didn't strike my mind as normal at anytime- just strangely old.

Stacey's pink outfit sounds very Barbie doll.
