        90s retro aesthetic.

        Its cool because they look terrible, ironically!

        Haha guys isn’t that so clever?

        … its basically brainrot irony poisoning as a fashion style.

        I am still confused by the Sydney Sweeney ad showing off jeans.

        Booba, she has, junk in the trunk, she does not, and those jeans made her look like she has Hank Hill’s ass.

          I am still confused by the Sydney Sweeney ad showing off jeans.

          At first I heard the howling about that ad being dog whistling for Aryan eugenics, I thought it was just overreaction. Then I saw the ad and yeah, it’s absolutely Nazi shit.

        Every generation goes through a trend of trying to dress older than they are. Momcore is kind of the GenZ version of Millennial “preppy” look.

            Well, when you get to the age where mom jeans are what you want, it’s a given that you’re also at the no fucks given age WRT fashion.

            It’s as liberating as hell.

            I blew past mom jeans and went straight to cargo shorts and a strap belt to hold them up (in spite of being fat, I still have no ass), flip flop sandals and leg warmers. And an oxblood woolrich winter flannel shirt.

        Found them in their Gen-X mom’s closet? I remember a lot of the girls I dated back in the early nineties wore them because they were pretty cheap. You could get them in K-Mart, Wal-Mart, etc. When I met my now wife she would wear Wal-Mart jeans and these bras (also Wal-Mart) that must have been designed in the fifties and had this slightly conical look to them. This country was broke as fuck in the early nineties and we looked it.

          I swear the conical bras were popular because of Madonna! I don’t know if that’s actually the case but that’s what I always associated them with, lol
