Plus, their styles all remind me of teenage bedrooms which I am really fascinated by since it's the environment a person tries to create for themself while constructing new identities and in an attempt to run away within their own home. Then there's all this old memory sentimental junk lying around even when someone tries becoming a different person, childhood leftovers and embarrassing souvenirs among hair dye and newly discovered music. (If you too share my obsession, maybe even to the extent of knowing that feeling of creepiness when asking someone whose house you're in if you can see their room, or feeling even creepier when you sneak a peak without asking, I recommend this.)
Marlena makes a lot of her own clothes (I SEE YOU, "EXCUSE ME" GRRRL MANIFESTO T-SHIRT) and is generally a print-mixing goddess.
Writing about mollysoda makes me feel like I'm exploiting a gem of the internet but she gave me permission and I feel like a lot of people need to know about her rat, Sarah Michelle Gellar. Plus it wouldn't be a post about Cool Older Girls if there wasn't anyone to be deemed a bad influence! STOP LOOKING AT HER TUMBLR IT WILL MAKE YOU BUY A RAT AND SMOKE MARIJUANA WITH IT

Silly Innocent Girl is one of my favorite blogs. Cool post.
Oh Cool! I already read Marlena's blog!
Have you seen this: http://www.raniamatar.com/portfolio/recent/girl-room.php#girl-room/1-01.jpg
It's pictures of teenage girls in their bedrooms in the US and the Middle East - they're really beautiful!
Some of those are quite.. interesting.
all are wonderful xD
LOVE LOOKING AT PICTURES OF PEOPLE'S ROOMS! thanks for that link. there's also ourbedrooms livejournal community :D
LOVE.
Awww Tavi! You're too nice.
Just being mentioned in the same post as Maddie, Molly Soda AND Rayanne Graff is enough to make me squeal like a deranged fangirl. This made my day for sure <3
Ha ha! Some great people, Tavi. Marlena's blog is ah-mazing.
You're so welcome, Marlena!!
preety (: i love the last ones hair !
It is funny, about young female stars and "bad influence" - I also find this ridiculous. You know, we never hear about young MALE stars who have bad influence on youngsters. By the way, I like Sarah Michelle Gellar much. (However, do not risk your rat's health with marijuana!)
such a great post-- it is cute per usual, but you are such a good writer too-- i love the part about teenage rooms and the attempt to run away in your own home...
thanks so much for these links! (more!)
rad girls
Love those pictures. Really inspiring.

Great post Tavi!
I didn't know her but we like her style!

Interesting :O

Ah, Marlena, a total creative babe. UGH Then Mollysoda seriously the raddest babe in all the internet-land. Tiny Chat isn't the same when she's not on. (Srsly, too many creeps roam that site)
The girls are really unique. I like their original self-assured punky style)))
I love japanese style foreveeeeeeeeeeer!!!!
I love your blog, how gorgeous!

Love this post...All the pics are amazing..
mollysoda, lol. i appreciate that she's the only "tumblr-famous" girl that isn't mean to her "fans".
What are you doing when you clean out your room then?
Nice shout-outs. Real-girl style is the best style.
Thanks for making us discover them.

hee hee, good to know the younger generation is keepin' the flame alive! (of course I AM NOT endorsing drug use, merely the creation of fond memories with members of the rodentia sp.)
i was listening to the radio on the weekend, they said the indigenous name for hamsters translates as 'Mr. Saddlebags'. can you imagine anything cuteR@!!?!?!
i sure can't. steph
OH MY! It may be I just had a heart attack. AWESOMENESS OVERLOAD.
Thank u for that.
Love ur blog!!
Marlena is just too cool.
I wish I had her style brain - every outfit just WORKS in a way that isn't too over the top.
they have great ideas
Love them ALL. And naming your rat Sarah Michelle Gellar is way too cool.
I feal so with it for already being marlena's paparazzi. lol. your right molly soda is a godess. she and miuccia prada should have a god party.
I like Marlena’s pink boots. And Molly Soda’s pairing of what looks like a Disney t-shirt with her blue hair is genius.
Awesome! I remember having bedroom envy when I was in middle school and junior high. Now I spend my time looking at other people's apartments, daydreaming about what my perfect home will look like. One thing I must have in my future home is my own "bedroom". A place where I can work on stupid girly things and watch embarrassing movies with out the judgement of my b.f. :) I will also take naps there.
Love the post,
http://mostlyclothes-cristina.blogspot.com/
agh agh agh thank you so much <3 squeeing
Marlena is my hero. Love this post. Also, I miss your frequent outfit posts.
I'm 22 and living in my bedroom at my parents' house for probably the last few months, and I'm getting very sentimental about my room. I have a few friends whose parents redecorated their kids' rooms the second they left for college. I think I'd have been traumatized by that. Something that has always struck me as odd is the difference in bedrooms between my girl friends and guy friends. I know there are guys out there who see their room as a reflection of self or a haven, etc etc, but all the ones I know seem to live in a funny time warp where their bedrooms don't change much since childhood. I was super surprised when I found out a good guy friend of mine still has a Noah's Ark themed bedroom despite being a pretty grown man and an atheist. I'm not saying my room doesn't still contain elements of my childhood, but I think I and my lady friends cared more whether our rooms were reflections of us. This could also have something to do with the fact that I seem to spend much more time in here than, say, my younger brother spends in his room. For him it's just a place to sleep. I would be curious to meet a guy with a bedroom more like mine, because I can't fathom living for years in a room I'd outgrown.
fun fun

Oh man, I totally get what you're saying about teenage bedrooms. I redecorated mine in eighth grade. I wanted it to be sophisticated, neat, organized, spotless... but sharing it with my sister presented a few restrictions. She's since gotten her own room, which doesn't really matter now since she's at college. Anyway, it's still so teenage... even though I'm now eighteen and evidently in the last stages of teenagedom.
These girls have great styles and some great hair.

Firstly, read Cunt.
Secondly, do more outfit posts.
That's all.
Tavi, This picture of Greg Hawkes on NerdBoyfriend reminded me of you... http://nerdboyfriend.com/2011/03/greg-hawkes/
I think you can add this target="_blank" after the link you post. In that case, there will be a pop-up window for the website, and still stay in style rookie!
i want to be best friends with all of them.
I just checked marlenas blog thanks for posting pics of her are I would have never found her.

If you like Stevie Nicks, you should check out the 70's band Heart.
I was initially drawn to your blog because you wrote about current runway shows and sort of displayed your version of (genius) mood boards for designers collections. It made haute couture relatable. And I think you're brilliant when creating your own inspirations too, but lately your posts have felt a bit too Claire's accessories. Hope you get back to your previous style.
Marlena's amazing! Good choice :) XX
P.S. Claire's is awesome lol
Here's a question not really related to this post, but I just remembered the show. Have you ever seen "Clarissa explains it all" early-mid 90s show on that was on Nickelodeon? Her style wasn't overly out there, but it had it's moments.
also please disregard the name, I was too lazy to sign out of my bf's account
Jeez they are all so rad, and they all have amazing tights?!?! Don't we all wish we had older girls in our school like that. Plus aha just had a bedroom clean out as of your post..teeheee...

"STOP LOOKING AT HER TUMBLR IT WILL MAKE YOU BUY A RAT AND SMOKE MARIJUANA WITH IT"
Hahah oh you KNOW I've gotta go look at it now.
For me, it's more than just liking these teen girls fashion statement. You know why? It's because not only that they're unique, they show such great confidence, doing what they want to do and just simply express themselves. And one of the things to see it is through the way they dress. Amazing!
"Vacuum Cleaners | best vacuum cleaners reviews 2011"
Tavi! Your thoughts about teenagers constructing refuges made me remember of this great article cute girl and fellow fashion-lover Molly Young wrote for ThisRecording.com about memories of wanting to fill her room with all the items from her Delia's catalog. Check it out!

hey Tavi I don't know if you know this but you were born about 25 years too late. everything you love is my childhood, young adulthood, and college years. It's too funny, what's your mom like? Anyhow I used too have a book that was pictiures of teenage girls in their bedrooms probs published around 1992??? I live in Ireland now and all my beloved books are in storage in LA so I'm unsure of title but it was a Sassy reccomendation so you should be able to track it down through your collection of old Sassy's. take care wonderful girl.M.
hahahahahha! i definately knew the feeling you meant with the bedroom, sort of embaressed..i clicked on the link hahaha! i love it <3
:(
im sad you posted mollysoda. respect lost. but i still love everything else you post.
Someday when you are old like me, you should write a post about why I don't feel like I can dress like this anymore*, even though I wish I could.
* Whether I was ever capable of dressing myself quite like this is open to debate.
SUPER photographs !!!
You know, I just realized Molly Soda has the face of Peaches Geldof. I am not sure how I feel about this.
Great bloggers! Makes me so sad when Tumblr is over capacity, but i will def. check out mollysoda tomorrow! :)
hehe...i love these girsl..have see them around and loved their crazyness

What is actually brvivqt worse, the Oakley Sunglasses Cheap existing condition are generally Half X Oakley horribly toxified and pollutes Oakley Sunglasses Discount is available everywhere, especially in air flow. Above most, expose ones' sight to out-of-doors and Sale Oakley Sunglasses toxified air will bring about very critical eye troubles. However, if men and women can don Oakley Jawbone after they go out-of-doors, such risks might be eliminated as well as greatly reduced at the Oakley Stpl Jawbone least. Of study course, Half X can even be for in house use. For the reason that they are certainly not only Oakley Sunglasses Outlet, but in addition protective Oakley sunglasses.
love those girls' style!
