Chick Flicks: A Guide To Personal Style

Chick flicks, though often overlooked in the world of serious cinema, have provided us with some serious fashion moments. These fun and carefree films can speak to individuals on a personal level, acting as a source of comfort for many. But what can these lively flicks teach us about personal style?

Uptown Girls 

Speaking of embracing the inner child: Molly Gunn shows us there is nothing wrong with hyper-femininity and a little glitter in this wholesome throwback, in which a playful and immature nanny meets a wise-beyond-her-years schoolgirl. Accept your adolescent quirks! Patchwork denim, sequins and headbands are all being added to our summer moodboard as we speak.

Coyote Ugly

 If there’s one thing to take from the 2000 comedy-drama, it’s that Y2K fashion will always be cool. The strong Americana styling is a tutoring in being boisterous and brash with your clothes — there’s nothing wrong with attracting attention and sometimes dressing up is the best way to unleash your inner confidence.

 St. Trinians'

From British classic to modern-day phenomenon, this heist-infused chick flick makes a fashion show out of boarding school. Knee-length socks, hockey sticks and straw hats prove that uniformity doesn’t have to replace individuality.

Wild Child

Poppy Moore’s journey of self-discovery really is one for the books. Swapping Malibu-moment bandeau dresses for lumpy yellow sweaters doesn’t have to be a negative. Take every chance you get to flourish, exploring style options and expanding your closet.

Bridget Jones’ Diary

Sometimes we must choose comfort over style. It’s a simple fact, often glossed over by the glitz and glamour of the fashion industry and the red carpets … sometimes the “granny pants” take the cake.
