Praise the '90s TV gods, Clarissa Explains it All is on now on Hulu.
As my boyfriend and I were watching it, he pointed out, "Sarah...you dress just like the mom. I'm pretty sure you have that exact outfit."
While at first I was all "I'M NOT A MOM!" I realized as I kept watching that being told you dress like the Clarissa's mom, Janet Darling, is a damn compliment. Clarissa gets all the credit when fashion is brought up, but if you take a closer look, her mom is the real queen.
Like it or not, the '90s are back, without the shoulder pads. And here are 17 reasons to embrace it:
1. When she was taken aback by her own outfit:
2. When she looked like a forest nymph:
3. When she showed Mr. Darling just how lucky he was:
4. When she taught you how to take an oversized sweatshirt and make it chic:
5. When she showed she can work bright colors, too:
6. When she made Ferguson realize his mom is ravishing:
7. When she schooled you on how to mix-n-match prints:
8. When she showed us that button ups should be buttoned all the way up:
9. When she taught us how to properly do a messy French twist:
10. When she knew she looked like as beautiful as a Greek goddess:
11. When she showed you how to properly do denim on denim (with a vest):
12. When she was so excited by how royal she looked in gem tones:
13. When she wasn't afraid to rock a statement piece:
14. When she looked sheerly magnificant:
15. When her kitchen walls were envious of her shirt's mustard hue:
16. When she embraced her inner artist:
17. When she rocked a romper:
Keep mixing up fashion magic forever, Mrs. Darling.
