style icon(s)

I'm really tired and it's -9 degrees in my house but I can't write about how much I love Courtney without making a post about her wonderfully feminine dress-up doll style known as
KINDERWHORE.
And so here is the best of the 90's kinderwhore look

(This look does not look complete without a Peter Pan collar)

I want my hair to do this I want it to be messy and effortless and wavy and cute and I want to stick my little sister's hair clips all over it.

~hi haters~ u go girl 

I just really love that guitar strap, also Hi Marianne Faithfull!!!

I am a witch and a slut, too. 

However, I can't give Courtney all of the credit for this "look" because my sources show that its origins come from none other than 

KAT BJELLAND

Who is also beautiful and lovely and perfect in every way. 

Showing us grown-ups how to work the little girls' barrettes for the first time ever. Truly an icon. It's the 90's, anything can happen.

Also, to prove the validity and influence of this unique fashion trend: Meadham Kirchhoff's more recent Kinderwhore Revival. 

I would give anything to have modeled in that show. This makes the messy blond hair and pale silk slips officially iconic. Goodnight!
