aztec indians

(tunic: Target, jeans: Old Navy, necklace: street fair in Warsaw, Poland, sandals: Target)

In middle school I used to have this killer woven backpack that I got at a festival.  It was the epitome of cool for my twelve-year-old self.  Then one day I carried it to a relative’s house where a (really uncool) relative complimented me on the backpack.  It was the last day I carried it.

Too bad I don’t have it anymore though.  It was pretty much this shirt on a purse-sized backpack.  I was only about eighteen years ahead of the trend. 

I also had fluffy bangs in middle school (annnd elementary) and we know how hot those are right now.  So pretty much everything I did twenty years ago accidentally is now cool and trendy.

Next prediction for a trend: perms? IOU sweatshirts? Looney Tunes t-shirts?  Because I’ve got those covered too.

    I held onto that backpack as long as possible. Was it at the international festival, 6th grade?

      Ha! Maybe–I really don’t remember where I got it, but that might be it. It was completely out of character for me to buy something like that, but I loved that thing. I wouldn’t be surprised if you were the one that talked me into buying it.
