I remember grunge. Not very well- it peaked when I was eight or nine- but I remember it well enough. Also, I still listen to all the music. I miss grunge. I miss it so much I almost paid $70 to see Mudhoney a couple weeks ago, until I remembered that they probably suck now.
So, when ShopBop sent one of their helpful emails the other day, extolling the grunge look as, like, so very in for fall, I was intrigued.
Gwen Stefani may know a think or two about punk glamour, as the write-up says (I would take issue with this, but what do I know?), but "punk glamour" is faaaaaar from grunge. Yes, I could see David Bowie wearing them, but not anyone who was in Mother Love Bone.
Oh, right, I think Eddie Vedder owns, like, three of these!
Are these...um...I mean...seriously? These are tights?
Yeah, I think Nirvana wore these in different colours on their last tour. Actually, I could see Kurt Cobain rocking this, but I could see him rocking just about anything. Krist Novoselic, on the other hand, would have looked a little dumb.
...aaaaaaaaaaaand I got nothing. It's so inexplicable and impossible to understand, I'm going to call it "Miss Tyra."
...I'd wear it, though.
I'm out. Gonna break out the 7 Year Bitch and read the latest SubPop newsletter.
