A KISS AND A POUT MAY JUST GET CARLY RAE CAUGHT IN A BIND

Carly Rae Jepsen's newest single recently came out and while its 80s vibe has got me dancing, I can't quite put my finger on this song. It's catchy enough to make me want to dance and sing along (not as much as 'Call me Maybe'), but there's something about it that drives me a bit crazy...


Maybe it's that 80's vibe that almost brings me back to my childhood where that time period was slowly turning into the little less grunge 90s. Can we say its a little bittersweet then? Not sure, but maybe the autotuned portions of this song has got me cringing just a little because singers are not real nowadays, but rather synthesized? Whatever the case may be, this song has inspired me to speak 80s fashion. Of course, it is still influential in the trends we see nowadays, so as I was maneuvering through my mother's closet, I came across an 80s inspired red studded blazer. Almost reminiscent of those Michael Jackson days when music was something not entirely synthesized.

And while the 80s was an era we either love or hate, I still get inspired by things flashy, gaudy, and a bit oversized.
