Flashback and Fastforward

I was recently thinking about the stores I used to visit when I was in middle school. Wet Seal, Contempo Casual, French Connection (because it was SO hip and I had to get just ONE thing), Delia's. I wanted to revisit some of those blasts from the past with a post dedicated to fab finds from teen stores. In fact, in some instances, I feel like I'm unearthing amazing pieces that are totally under the radar. So I present to you what I call "teen chic":


Delia's dresses:


Tie-dye fine
Take a bow
Safari-ready
Pretty dots
Ikat-seeming pattern

***

Fabulous foot finds at Mandee:

Some pink spice - caliente!

Everyday-fabulous wedge
THE most playful peeptoe

***

These jewels from "Wet Seal" get my seal of approval:

They call these "linear loop earrings" -- I call them "heaven"
This bangle's fit for a museum

That ring is GAWgeous

Angelic chain necklace

Sweet leaf

Um, hi, my name is Rachel, where have you been all my life, gold earrings?

Silver earrings, five bucks, Wet Seal - go get'm!
