Becoming Angela Chase - My So Called Life
>> 6.11.09
For some reason, I have never written about Angela Chase here before. I am really ungrateful I suppose, since she shaped my late teens, gave me the thrills of a lifetime and generally made high school more bearable. I know I am not the only one who had (and still has) the insane hots for Jared Leto/Jordan Catalano. Gosh, I even have shoes who go by the name of "My So Called Heels". And I have to admit I got them probably 75% because of their name. I know, right?
Today is the beginning of a new adventure for me (more on this soon), and I needed the comfort and familiarity of Angela by my side. I was thinking of ways to channel her look and make it fit for what I am doing all day today... So here are the results of my investigations, today, we can all be Angela Chase for a few hours, have painful crushes, teenage thrills and massive nostalgia.

I used to LOVE that show. It totally shaped my teens as well, since I think I was in my freshman year when it was on. And of course, Jordan Catalano, I seriously don't think there's been a teen heart throb since that compared to him.
I need to get it on DVD since I haven't seen it since the 90s, but I remember it so well in my head.
I bought a pair of boots a couple of months ago that are just so ridiculously Angela Chase. I had been watching the box set and felt inspired.
Oh and HELLO Jordan!

I wanted to buy the box set AA was selling onine, but it is way out of my price range. I have to say, Brian also made my heart flutter, when he wasn't being a goody goody.
Jordan Catalano. Sigh. I agree with Kate. He was my first love. The first thing I ever entered into an internet search engine was "Jordan Catalano". I swear!
I had my hair cut and home dyed just like Angela too, and my sister had a blonde streak like Rayanne! Dorks!
♥♥♥ as always! & i running out to get a plaid dress now X ;)
My So Called Life is easily one of my favourite shows of all time and I think subconsciously it was a factor in my hair colour choice!

p.s. it's dayna aka dayna lovette! i made a new blog a couple of weeks ago :)
Awww Claire Danes (L) She's so beautiful and lol at Jared Leto back then, I didn't know he had been at any high school/teen tv drama
cool outfits!
Thank you for this post. Way back when - I was devastated when I learned it was canceled - it is such a good show!
"Was that my stomach or your stomach"... Ah, ma jeunesse fout le camp.
I loved my so called life from the episodes I seen anyway. What a throw back to grunge/90s style. My era lol. Love it.
