it was a gloomy, rainy day today so i decided to stay in bed a little bit longer to watch this...

Watching: Valley Girl

She's cool. He's hot. She's from the Valley. He's not.

I was feeling a little nostalgic so I spent Saturday night watching Valley Girl- so classic. 1983. Deborah Foreman and Nicolas Cage. 

"That chick Julie, she's truly dazzling"

I love this blouse, worn with high waisted jeans... and her hair! Perfection. 

Anyone else think she looks like Rachel Zoe?

This makes me sad that I was not a teenager in the 80's. 

"He's the most awesome dude ever"

Every 80's slumber party requires girls dancing around in their underwear. Am I the only one who has never done this? By the way, I really want that zebra print tank/ undie set. 

Prada anyone? 

This actually reminds me of my prom dress. I wore vintage. I can't believe I unknowingly referenced Valley Girl. 

In case you were wondering, Deborah Foreman is now a yoga and pilates instructor.
