With all the 90’s whoopla lately, be it fashion, music or the re-launch of 90210, I recently stumbled upon the opening credits for Blossom, and I strongly suggest you take another look.
Yes I’m speaking of the awkward teen who left us with a bad taste for floppy hats, and topsy-tail hair-don’ts, but looking back at this video has shed a whole new light on her character. The opening credits displays Blossom in a wide array of quirky yet noteworthy outfits, portraying her versatile personality and style sense.
Got me thinking about Candace Bushnell’s, upcoming prequel novels, chronicling the teenage life of Carrie Bradshaw. Crazy as it seems… Ms Blossom Russo could just be that ‘it’ girl. Plucking the huge flower off her floppy hat and pinning it onto the shoulder of her body-con sheath…come on, Carrie’s distinct style must be the result of a major trial and error past.
Going a little deeper, Blossom and Carrie share the same perfectly un-perfect trait we as viewers relate to oh so well. From their first date … to their first engagement ring… and then their second…. we were glued to the tube, learning from their mistakes and gaining from their blossoming sense of self.
