Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I am all in follow I guess you Stars Hollow
- 0:17Speaker 1: Style with Easton Allen, an iHeartRadio podcast for all the
- 0:22Speaker 1: little boys and girls out there that have longed and
- 0:25Speaker 1: wished for a podcast just about the fashion of Gilmore Girls.
- 0:29Speaker 1: This is for you. Hey, it's Easton Allen. This is
- 0:33Speaker 1: Stars Hollow Style. Thank you so much for joining us.
- 0:36Speaker 1: This week, we're talking about season two, episode eighteen, Back
- 0:40Speaker 1: in this Saddle again. What an episode, you guys. This
- 0:43Speaker 1: is so fun to go back and look at Gilmore
- 0:46Speaker 1: Girls through such a narrow lens, just the clothes, and
- 0:50Speaker 1: this episode had some fantastic looks. I'll be honest, I
- 0:57Speaker 1: can find myself being pretty snarchy when I do this.
- 1:00Speaker 1: That's just my nature. I'm sorry, It's who I am.
- 1:03Speaker 1: And part of the reason we love Gilmour Girls. And
- 1:08Speaker 1: one of the many quirks of this show is the
- 1:10Speaker 1: fashion we see is often baffling, and we are not
- 1:17Speaker 1: afraid to point that out. And sometimes I can be
- 1:20Speaker 1: kind of you know, I can be a little harsh,
- 1:22Speaker 1: but that's I don't know, I'm just having fun, you
- 1:23Speaker 1: know whatever. This episode be prepared for sincerity. There's not
- 1:30Speaker 1: a lot to make fun of here, and there's not
- 1:32Speaker 1: a lot to snicker about. We're just going to appreciate
- 1:35Speaker 1: good fashion in this episode. Would you like to join me?
- 1:39Speaker 1: The cold open will start there. That's a good place
- 1:41Speaker 1: to start at the beginning. Loralai and Rory look great.
- 1:45Speaker 1: But I want to comment on Emily's Saint John suit.
- 1:48Speaker 1: Another one. She has a closet full of these, and
- 1:52Speaker 1: this one looks great. This is it's like it's navy,
- 1:55Speaker 1: and then she's got these like beaded accents on the
- 1:58Speaker 1: zipper going down the middle and on the pockets on
- 2:01Speaker 1: her jacket. It kind of makes like a cross pattern
- 2:04Speaker 1: with these beads. I thought it looked great. I really
- 2:06Speaker 1: liked that suit. Emily wears so much Saint John, and
- 2:10Speaker 1: I always want to point out when it's something remarkable.
- 2:12Speaker 1: In this case, it was after the intro, Laurel and
- 2:16Speaker 1: Rory go to Luke's Diner, where they're shocked to see
- 2:19Speaker 1: a new special on the chalkboard. Laurels wearing a light
- 2:23Speaker 1: blue button up shirt with a white collar and white
- 2:25Speaker 1: cuffs contrasting there. I used to see businessmen and you know,
- 2:31Speaker 1: some mobsters, but I would see businessmen in like movies
- 2:34Speaker 1: where this kind of thing all the time in the
- 2:37Speaker 1: nineties and the two thousands, like like a dark blue
- 2:40Speaker 1: or a light blue, then like stark white cuffs and
- 2:44Speaker 1: collar that I thought it was really cool. And to me,
- 2:46Speaker 1: I remember being a kid watching seeing a guy in
- 2:50Speaker 1: that in that kind of shirt, saying, Wow, that looks expensive.
- 2:53Speaker 1: That looks so expensive. And Laurelei's got that same classy
- 2:57Speaker 1: look here in Luke's Diner. I really liked it. Dean
- 3:01Speaker 1: joins them. Do you guys remember this episode that Dean
- 3:04Speaker 1: is at his whiniest and most pathetic. I think in
- 3:07Speaker 1: this episode it's a bummer to watch anyway. Dean joins them.
- 3:11Speaker 1: He's wearing a soft, comfy looking red sweater layered over
- 3:15Speaker 1: a gray T shirt and then a tiny, tiny chain.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Pretty standard Dean looks in this moment at Luke Steiner.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Then we'll go to the inn looking at the wedding
- 3:27Speaker 1: invitations for Susie Saint James, and we get to go
- 3:32Speaker 1: on an adventure with Soki. Here we get to see
- 3:36Speaker 1: and test the limits of what a Paisley bandana can be.
- 3:40Speaker 1: And in this world you can be anything you set
- 3:42Speaker 1: your mind to, and right here we get to see
- 3:44Speaker 1: that the Paisley bandana has taken over Soki's entire life
- 3:49Speaker 1: force in multiple formats. She's got a black bandana Paisley
- 3:55Speaker 1: bandana wrapped around her hair. But then her chef's outfit.
- 3:59Speaker 1: We love tween out her sh outfits. We talked about
- 4:01Speaker 1: that a lot. This one is great. We really, we
- 4:04Speaker 1: really admire it. And this is because before we've seen like,
- 4:08Speaker 1: you know, rose patterns or stuff like that. This moment,
- 4:12Speaker 1: she's wearing a navy, long sleeved chef shirt with a
- 4:15Speaker 1: pattern of You guys, maybe I'm wrong here, it looked
- 4:20Speaker 1: like smaller bandanas on her chef's outfit. It was like
- 4:24Speaker 1: a pattern of squares that each had a different kind
- 4:27Speaker 1: of design. It could have been tiles, I guess, like like,
- 4:30Speaker 1: you know, like cool Spanish tiles, but to me, there's
- 4:34Speaker 1: a couple of those on there that are just full
- 4:36Speaker 1: blown regular Paisley bandanas. So it was like a shirt
- 4:40Speaker 1: with bandanas printed on it. I thought it was fun.
- 4:43Speaker 1: I really liked it. It was really it's neat. We
- 4:46Speaker 1: see Souki wears so much Paisley bandana stuff, especially when
- 4:50Speaker 1: she's at work, So I just thought that was that
- 4:52Speaker 1: was fun. It's like when you see a T shirt
- 4:53Speaker 1: with a T shirt printed on it, it's cool. It's
- 4:56Speaker 1: it's not normal, all right. Next up, we'll go to
- 5:00Speaker 1: Downtown Stars Hollow. Rory and Lane are walking down the street.
- 5:04Speaker 1: They're talking about their professional future when they get approached
- 5:07Speaker 1: by Classic Whiney Dean. Okay, so we got a trio
- 5:12Speaker 1: here on the street and we're gonna go through their outfits.
- 5:16Speaker 1: I'm gonna list them in order of who was best
- 5:18Speaker 1: dressed to worst dressed. So taking the number one spot, Lane,
- 5:22Speaker 1: I liked her outfit the best. She is best dressed
- 5:24Speaker 1: here in this moment on the streets. She's wearing a
- 5:28Speaker 1: dark indigo denim jacket over a white button up shirt
- 5:30Speaker 1: with like a nineties style pastel swatch pattern on it.
- 5:34Speaker 1: It was just like looking just like you know, blotches
- 5:36Speaker 1: of like pastel colored paint. I liked it. That was
- 5:39Speaker 1: really cool. She's paired this with charcoal pants and black
- 5:42Speaker 1: platform shoes. Lane usually looks really good and this is
- 5:46Speaker 1: no different. I really liked this outfit. I just I
- 5:50Speaker 1: thought it showed off her personality a lot, and I
- 5:53Speaker 1: thought it looked good on her. I think the colors
- 5:55Speaker 1: were very complimentary to her hair and the rest of
- 5:58Speaker 1: how she carries herself. Next up is Dean in the
- 6:02Speaker 1: number two spot. He is so sad about Rory not
- 6:05Speaker 1: watching his softball game, and he enters this moment wearing
- 6:10Speaker 1: a gray sweater with a black stripe down the sleeves.
- 6:14Speaker 1: He loves these kind of sweaters. He's like nineties looking
- 6:17Speaker 1: long sleeve sweaters. He wears them almost exclusively, and that's
- 6:23Speaker 1: layered over a kind of a baggy shirt that you
- 6:26Speaker 1: can see it bunching up under the collar. And he
- 6:29Speaker 1: pulls off a pretty magical moment right here, if you
- 6:32Speaker 1: will go back and watch this. When Dean enters, he's
- 6:35Speaker 1: got like a green I think it's a pukashell necklace. Again,
- 6:39Speaker 1: Dean loves his jewelry, he loves his accessories. He's got
- 6:43Speaker 1: a green pukashell looking necklace. It's kind of like tucked
- 6:45Speaker 1: under the collar of his sweater. When he sees them
- 6:48Speaker 1: on the street and approaches them and he walks up,
- 6:51Speaker 1: it's still kind of like tucked under the collar. A
- 6:54Speaker 1: little bit, we cut to Rory and Lane, we cut
- 6:56Speaker 1: back to Dean. That necklace is out on display, it's
- 6:59Speaker 1: over the collar. It's where it's supposed to be. It's
- 7:00Speaker 1: sitting on top of his sweater. He says, this piece.
- 7:05Speaker 1: We go back to Rory and Lane back to Dean,
- 7:07Speaker 1: it's tucked under the collar again. Oopsie oopsy the magical
- 7:14Speaker 1: self moving necklace. I guess, you know, obviously this is
- 7:17Speaker 1: a continuity problem, but also I guess it's not unrealistic
- 7:20Speaker 1: that Dean could have been nervously fidgeting with his necklace.
- 7:23Speaker 1: He doesn't seem like a guy that does that. So
- 7:25Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say, Wow, major blunder there. Hope someone
- 7:29Speaker 1: got fired for that one. Anyway. Lastly, in this scene,
- 7:33Speaker 1: the worst dress of the trio Rory Gilmore. She is
- 7:37Speaker 1: wearing a blue longsleeve button up shirt with what I
- 7:41Speaker 1: like to call a lazy plaid pattern on the front.
- 7:44Speaker 1: It's just on the front, there's nothing on the back,
- 7:47Speaker 1: and it's like plaid kind of straped design that looks
- 7:51Speaker 1: like it looks like if you look at a plaid
- 7:53Speaker 1: image and then zoom out, like it's like you enlarge
- 7:56Speaker 1: everything in the zoom out if that makes sense. It's
- 7:58Speaker 1: a or actually or maybe zoom in. Yeah, it's like
- 8:01Speaker 1: if you were an ant and you're crawling on top
- 8:03Speaker 1: of a plaid shirt, it would look like this. It's
- 8:04Speaker 1: everything's really big and spaced far apart, so it's not
- 8:07Speaker 1: like a typical plaid. It's just like the just the
- 8:09Speaker 1: stripes and then big blocks of contrasting color. And if
- 8:15Speaker 1: you look at the bottom button on this sweater as
- 8:18Speaker 1: you're watching along with me, you can see the edges
- 8:23Speaker 1: of the sweater, you know, sweater shirt, whatever it is,
- 8:26Speaker 1: start to flare out a little bit. It makes me
- 8:28Speaker 1: think that this doesn't really fit her that well, it
- 8:31Speaker 1: doesn't fit the right way. So I don't love what
- 8:34Speaker 1: she's wearing here. She's also wearing these pants with a
- 8:36Speaker 1: button fly that that's a really long, like, just so
- 8:39Speaker 1: many buttons going on in this rory outfit. I do
- 8:43Speaker 1: not like it. Also, I just want to say, you guys,
- 8:46Speaker 1: this is my first week doing this on Hulu, watching
- 8:50Speaker 1: the show on Hulu. I don't know if you guys
- 8:52Speaker 1: have been watching since the Netflix the end of the
- 8:55Speaker 1: Netflix license, but I just switched to Hulu for this episode.
- 9:00Speaker 1: I don't like it. I did not have a fun experience.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Just to you know, I watched the show for the podcast,
- 9:06Speaker 1: and I'll pause it when I want to look at
- 9:07Speaker 1: the outfits, and when you pause it, it like all
- 9:10Speaker 1: the Hulu nonsense shows up on the screen and you
- 9:13Speaker 1: can't get it to go away. It's so annoying, you know,
- 9:15Speaker 1: because I need full screen, I need high definition. Anyway,
- 9:19Speaker 1: I'm really sad about it not be on Netflix anymore.
- 9:20Speaker 1: It's a bummer, but you know we got Hulu. Thank goad. Okay,
- 9:24Speaker 1: next up, we're This episode is a great run of
- 9:29Speaker 1: incredible lore light workoutfits. She does not always hit it,
- 9:32Speaker 1: but this episode she's firing on all cylinders. We're going
- 9:35Speaker 1: to talk about that after these words. What do they fuck? Hey, folks,
- 9:48Speaker 1: summertime can be hard for all of us. So that's
- 9:50Speaker 1: why I'm given better help a try. This is Easton
- 9:53Speaker 1: from Stars holl Style. I'm just kidding. We're back. The
- 9:55Speaker 1: commercials have ended. That was a joke. I'm goofing around.
- 9:58Speaker 1: No more commercials. This is just pure uncut content. Let's
- 10:03Speaker 1: get back to it. We're talking about season two, episode eighteen.
- 10:08Speaker 1: Back in the saddle again, which is where we are
- 10:10Speaker 1: in this episode. So before the break, we were talking
- 10:13Speaker 1: about Lorelei's workout fits, and we're going back to the
- 10:17Speaker 1: inn here at this point, in the episode LORELEI wearing
- 10:20Speaker 1: a blue blouse with these like raised dots all over
- 10:24Speaker 1: the all over it. It's like a very small you know,
- 10:29Speaker 1: I'd say, a like a sixteen live an inch orbs
- 10:33Speaker 1: raised all over her blouse. I liked it. It was
- 10:35Speaker 1: like a three D poga doot and it's got these
- 10:39Speaker 1: frilly cuffs. Very fun. I was looking at this shirt
- 10:44Speaker 1: and it's blue. Toont if, I said, the color, it's blue,
- 10:47Speaker 1: that's very important. This shirt, to me felt like she
- 10:52Speaker 1: loves those tuxedo shirts. We talk about that a lot.
- 10:55Speaker 1: She always wears those in like a formal situation or
- 10:58Speaker 1: if she wants to impress people. She wears a work
- 11:00Speaker 1: a lot too. Those like for roughly tuxedo shirts. This
- 11:04Speaker 1: feels like a toned down version of that. This feels
- 11:07Speaker 1: like she wants to get that same kind of vibe
- 11:09Speaker 1: and fun, but it's much less. It's much more subtle.
- 11:12Speaker 1: Like the frillly sleeves I think are easier, are easier
- 11:15Speaker 1: for like a normal person to swallow than the ruffles
- 11:18Speaker 1: going up the middle like on the where the buttons are.
- 11:21Speaker 1: I liked this shirt a lot. I think it was
- 11:23Speaker 1: very fun and a nice little kind of a nice
- 11:28Speaker 1: departure from what she normally does. Now we're going to
- 11:31Speaker 1: the Gilmour Hill House now, where Lorela's reading the Motley
- 11:36Speaker 1: Cruz book and Rory's coming home from her travels checking
- 11:39Speaker 1: the answering machine. Not an important fashion moment here, but
- 11:43Speaker 1: I just want to point out this scene because as
- 11:46Speaker 1: Rory is skipping through the messages from Dean, the tone
- 11:49Speaker 1: they chose for the next message sound It just sounded
- 11:51Speaker 1: just like when you get a coin in Mario Brothers
- 11:55Speaker 1: on the Nintendo, like the original one. But this is
- 11:58Speaker 1: fun to hear that anyway. That's all. I'm sorry. Back
- 12:01Speaker 1: to fashion stuff, Okay, I got to keep in my lane.
- 12:03Speaker 1: I stay in my lane. This is in a sound
- 12:05Speaker 1: effects podcast. It's fashion. It's Gilmore Girls starts all style.
- 12:09Speaker 1: Now let's go back to the inn. We're hanging a
- 12:11Speaker 1: U turn. We're going back to the Dragonfly in and
- 12:16Speaker 1: or sorry, the Independence in. Oh my god, I'm getting
- 12:17Speaker 1: ahead of myself. Some fantastic looks in this scene from
- 12:22Speaker 1: Lorley and Giselle, Michel's mother who was there visiting Horson.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Lorelay's wearing this black scoop neck top with an off
- 12:31Speaker 1: white like flower pattern, these really big flowers and long stems.
- 12:35Speaker 1: I really liked it. The flowers themselves felt like something
- 12:39Speaker 1: you'd see on a framed print in someone's house in
- 12:43Speaker 1: like the eighties. It was a really cool design. I
- 12:45Speaker 1: wish I tried to find it and I couldn't figure
- 12:47Speaker 1: it out. I really liked it. Though. I liked it
- 12:49Speaker 1: a lot. It feels like if you went to like
- 12:52Speaker 1: a really chic like lawyer's apartment in like nineteen eighty six,
- 12:56Speaker 1: they'd have this like framed in the living room. I
- 13:00Speaker 1: really liked this shirt or this blouse on Laura LII.
- 13:03Speaker 1: And then Giselle is wearing a hot pink jackawed skirt
- 13:09Speaker 1: and blazer. Combo had this like raised kind of pattern
- 13:14Speaker 1: on the On the blazer it looks like tropical leaves,
- 13:19Speaker 1: kind of like almost like like palm fronds. It was
- 13:22Speaker 1: really hard to tell because it's the same color as
- 13:24Speaker 1: the as the rest of the blazer, so it's it
- 13:27Speaker 1: was hard to see, but it looked kind of like
- 13:30Speaker 1: Miami ish. Very fun though. I just love the hot pink.
- 13:34Speaker 1: It looked great on her. Her hair look great in
- 13:35Speaker 1: this scene. Giselle's an icon so so chic. I want
- 13:39Speaker 1: to be just like her. Uh. Later on, we're staying
- 13:42Speaker 1: at the end, We're staying there, but we're gonna skip
- 13:45Speaker 1: ahead in the episode a little bit. We're in the
- 13:47Speaker 1: kitchen and Michelle confronts Laurlai about how she leaked his
- 13:52Speaker 1: lack of carbs to his mother, and Lourally is wearing
- 13:54Speaker 1: a red pin stripe button up shirt. Another one looks great.
- 13:57Speaker 1: It was untucked and it thought it was nice and
- 13:59Speaker 1: nice and can but still like I'm at work, I'm
- 14:01Speaker 1: on the job, I'm the manager. I really liked it.
- 14:03Speaker 1: I liked this red button up pinstripe that Laura's got
- 14:06Speaker 1: going on. And then we're gonna close out the episode
- 14:09Speaker 1: here at Friday night dinner, Loura wearing the same outfit
- 14:13Speaker 1: she's got from works. It's a red the red pin
- 14:15Speaker 1: stripe button up. She just put a coat on to
- 14:17Speaker 1: go to dinner with her parents. Rory, though, wearing a
- 14:21Speaker 1: very nice black dress. She's got a red coat on,
- 14:24Speaker 1: and when she takes it off, you get to see
- 14:25Speaker 1: this nice black dress with like stemmed flowers on it.
- 14:29Speaker 1: You know, the second flooral experience we've had in this
- 14:32Speaker 1: episode from m gilmore. We saw this dress before back
- 14:36Speaker 1: in season one, episode three, So very fun to see
- 14:39Speaker 1: it return. I really liked it. I was having some
- 14:43Speaker 1: trouble figuring out who it was, so I called in
- 14:46Speaker 1: a favor. I called my friend Melissa at ten percent caffeine.
- 14:50Speaker 1: She she of course, it was crazy. I was like,
- 14:53Speaker 1: I was texting her and before I could finish writing
- 14:56Speaker 1: the message, she just says, oh, it's Anna Sweet, like
- 14:59Speaker 1: she just immediately as soon as I asked if she
- 15:01Speaker 1: had the answer, it's an Anna Sweet dress. There was
- 15:04Speaker 1: one on Deep Pop. The listing is gone or else
- 15:07Speaker 1: I would link it for you, so I'll be on
- 15:09Speaker 1: the lookout for this dress. I really liked it. I
- 15:10Speaker 1: liked it a lot. I think she looked so good. Here.
- 15:13Speaker 1: That's it, you guys. Those are all the outfits of
- 15:16Speaker 1: note in season two, episode eighteen, Back in the Saddle again.
- 15:19Speaker 1: Let's go through and do our best and worst of
- 15:21Speaker 1: the entire episode. I know we did a mini version
- 15:23Speaker 1: of this on the street in Stars Hollow, but let's
- 15:26Speaker 1: do it overall. I think the worst outfit in this
- 15:29Speaker 1: scene in this episode, in this episode, the worst outfit,
- 15:33Speaker 1: you know, I gotta I'm sorry. She's got two trophies now,
- 15:37Speaker 1: Rory walking with Lane. I really did not like the
- 15:41Speaker 1: lazy plaid. I didn't like the way it fits. I
- 15:43Speaker 1: didn't like all the buttons on her pants. That's my
- 15:46Speaker 1: least favorite outfit. My favorite outfit, it's got to be
- 15:49Speaker 1: Laura Lei's white floral scoop neck top she was wearing
- 15:53Speaker 1: at the end when she's talking to Giselle. I really
- 15:56Speaker 1: love that top. I thought it was great. It was hard.
- 15:58Speaker 1: That was a toss up. I liked that. I really
- 15:59Speaker 1: like the dress that we saw on Rory at the
- 16:01Speaker 1: Friday night dinner at the end. It's a great dress,
- 16:04Speaker 1: such a great dress. This was a great episode for fashion,
- 16:08Speaker 1: so much fun outfits to look at. I hope you
