exploring blog archives: kissesandcrossstitches.blogspot.com, april-june 2010

Most of the blogs I come across are sourceless image hellscapes, but kissesandcrossstitches actually goes out of their way to credit the images they post.  Below, enjoy those photographs taken by Brian Ferry and Sarah Hermans I found while looking through their archives:

exploring blog archives: hipstermusings.blogspot.com, april-july 2011

Today brings yet another post brought to you by the gem that is the wayback machine.  Hipstermusings.blogspot.com,  the blog of Isabel Slone, is full of thrifted outfits, witty captions, and musings about feminism and '90s grunge bands.  The fact that it's even called Hipster Musings is delightful in it of itself given how pejoratively that word was used in the 2010's.  Isabel doesn't take herself or her style too seriously, but that's not to say her blog was one big joke.or something.  Alongside heer outfit photos are rants and raves about feminism, capitalism, and what it means to be an independent blogger.  Check out some her fits below:

scarf street style

Why did we as a society stop wearing scarves?  Back in the '00s and '10s, scarves were everywhere.  They were worn, yes, around the neck as a stylish way to keep warm but also as accessories for one's hair.  I suppose everyone just got scarfed out (a.k.a. the trend reached maximum saturation and then people got sick of it), but enough time has passed for scarves to make their comeback.  These street style photos from hoyfashion via yellowyellowapparel.blogspot.com make a strong case for adding scarves back into our outfits and hairstyles, and maybe even pair them with a vintage sweater or shorts with tights for some extra 2010's flair.  

I love the color combos here.  That mint green sweater pairs so well with her magenta hair scarf.  Also that coat looks ridiculously fuzzy and soft.  


Another shorts with tights look that caught my eye.  It's hard to tell in this photo but her hair scarf is polka dotted which is so cute in my opinion.

Swag.  Undeniable, inimitable swag. 

Cowboy boots + skinny jeans + hair scarf = instantly awesome outfit

Oh this scarf is a need.  Look at all the colors!  The way is floats in the breeze!  I love it. 

Here for this double scarf moment

 I love this collection of images—so cozy and comforting.  Now I definitely want to get dressed up in my favorite sweater (and maybe throw on a pair of leopard tights......)

tumblr finds: garypeppervintage-blog-blog.tumblr.com, 2010-2011

There is so much to these outfit photos from garypeppervintage-blog-blog.tumblr.com that I'm a bit overwhelmed.  The color blocking.  The pairing of socks with platform heels.  The circle skirts.  The business casual aesthetic.  It all brings me back to my middle school days of scrolling endlessly on fashion blogs the second I got home from school, and I can't help but indulge my nostalgia.  I confess I miss it when people used to dress like this.
