I can’t stop reblogging these 1993 JC Penney catalogue images. I mean, LOOK AT THIS. It’s glorious. This is a “when I grow up and marry Luke Perry and run a successful company and have a trampoline in my living room and stay up as late as I want and never have to do homework again and own 17 horses and a pink Miata … THIS IS WHAT I’M GONNA WEAR BECAUSE BEING A GROWN-UP IS GOING TO BE AWESOME” outfit.
Hilary Swank looking grumpy and bad-ass in crushed velvet. Off-the-shoulder crushed velvet. The best kind.
House Party (1990) Starring Kid ‘n’ Play - Tagline “If they get caught it’s all over. If they don’t, it’s just the beginning!”. http://www.hollywoodteenmovies.com
Disturbing Behavior (1998) Nick Stahl, Katie Holmes & James Marsden - Tagline “It doesn’t matter if you’re not perfect. You will be”. For more info & pics visit http://www.hollywoodteenmovies.com/DISTURBING%20BEHAVIOR.html
If you know of any super cheesy tourism videos from the ’90s, send them my way. I was going to say they can’t be ironic, but irony wasn’t invented until 2001-ish, so it’s a moot point.
My friend just showed me this gem for North Bay, Ontario, Canada, shot in 1998.
Bonus points for the so-bad-it’s-good song and attempts to glamorize dreary ’60s/’70s architecture. It’s like something off Everything Is Terrible.
Just north enough to be perfect …

I dare you to re-create this shot at your next ’90s-themed nostalgia party.
Mustard-yellow chic and promoting pill-popping for weight loss. WHAT MAGIC TIMES THESE WERE.
