Sanrio Kitty in Pink ’80s Retro Prom Party!

Sanrio closed their 50th anniversary celebration with one of their best parties yet, “Kitty in Pink” Retro Prom. I love all the Sanrio parties, but this one was especially awesome because everyone went all out with the ridiculous outfits! My friends ain’t afraid to get stoopid silly. Several times throughout the night, I’d be looking at what I thought was the ugliest outfit I’d ever seen. Then an even worse one (not naming names, but Jenny Rae, ahem!) would walk by. I was constantly amazed. And the hair… all the crunchy HAIR! The party reeked of Aquanet, and hugging all those big crunchy heads was no easy task.

Leia, Chrissa, Onch, Stephiee, Liz, Bebe, Laura, Robyn, me, Jenny Rae (No, Jenny Rae, nooooooo!!!). Front: Kimi


Awkward Family Photos

With Zoe, Danielle as Charmmy Kitty, and Jessica. HEY!

I bought this tuxedo leotard three years ago but hadn’t found the perfect occasion to wear it, until now. THE DAY HAS COME!!

YES, it has COAT TAILS TOO. So fricking hot, I get jealous of myself when I look at this picture.

NO, JENNY RAE, NOOOOOOO!!! This frightens yet amazes me.

Greg and Jessica

Danielle and Yume

Jessica, Danielle and Bebe

Danielle and Onch

Hi Tiffie!

Stephiee’s giant bows made everyone feel inadequate.

Pretty Katie

Kevin found a twin!

Debbi all dolled up

Aaron and Maria. NEEDS BIGGER SLEEVES!!

Is it so wrong that I think Ari looks totally hot and should rock this look every day?

A few of us were approached by a casting girl from a TV show about people with shitty style who need makeovers. [Stephanie Tanner voice]: “How rude!” Okay seriously, this was how our conversation went. She came up to me and asked, “Do you dress like this every day?” The mental image of myself in a tuxedo leotard every day was so beautiful that I lied and said yes. Her eyes lit up and she said, “That’s great! I’m casting for the Style Network, and we’re looking for crazy fashion ruts who need makeovers. You’re a perfect candidate! You’ll be compensated for your time and get a completely updated look and free clothes.” I said, “But I like the way I look.” She said, “Even better! We love candidates who truly believe they look good. It makes the transformation more dramatic.”

It’s ’80s, not 80’s!! Sorry, I normally wouldn’t say anything but there are just so many things wrong with this flyer that I couldn’t resist pointing one out. I do love this list though, because it pretty much describes every one of my friends. I want to get my sexy back. $$$

Chubby Bunny and Zoe (who was also offered a makeover). GOD WE’RE SO UNFASHIONABLE, HOW DO WE LIVE WITH OURSELVES?!

Lovely Leia, Tony, Laura

Zoe and her man Ales

Aww, it’s my pretty Mary Bee!

This was so awkward. Kevin went to the bathroom and asked me to hold his camera. I felt smart holding something so big and heavy, so I took it a step further and pretended I knew how to use it. I ran around taking fake pictures of my friends while saying dumb shit like “Make love to the camera, yes, just like that, darling!” Out of nowhere this guy came running up to us all excited. He said, “Do that again!” We said, “Do what?” and he said, “That pose where you are modeling, and you are taking a picture. Do it again! I’ve always had a ‘thing’ for that.” I didn’t know fake photography could be a “thing,” but okay. A few days later, Mary Bee found this picture on the internet. I don’t know where or how, but I dare not ask.

Chrissa wore her cousin’s 7th grade dance dress from 1992. The best part is, it was designed by her “super straight brother.” No wait, the BEST best part is that Chrissa fits into a 7th grader’s clothing!

Meow meow!

Gorgeous Trista! She lives in Oakland too. Go Oakland!

MCs Yume and Chubby Bunny of Bubble Punch take over the stage

I can’t tell for sure, but I THINK Jessica might have had a good time.

Hurr hurr, Julie has a mustache. My head is huge.

Danielle makes all her own accessories. Isn’t she lovely??

Uh oh, someone found vodka!

White Stephanie and Kyle

We practice safe driving

Snow White and her Prince

Bebe and Tiffie

Bebe and Hayden

Robyn, Irene, Stephiee, Chrissa looking foxy

So many gorgeous ladies to choose from!

Lovely Die is a prom princess!

Phuong-Anh squared (Stephiee and I have the same Vietnamese name)!

Romantic slow dance

Stephiee’s dress had really pointy boobs, so we kept pushing them in.

Um, hi

Obligatory bling photo. Even though my “bling” is a bottle of vodka. Whatevs!

Leaving the party

Afterparty at Greg’s!! Lumi showed up fashionably late.

I was recently asked, “Why do all your party posts end with a picture of your butt?” The answer is because everyone enjoys a happy ending.

XOXO
Amy

    pure awesomeness, as usual. Love the casting call bit! xo kb.

  • Zambi says:

    I have that fucking Style network shit HANGING ON MY WALL to remind me always of that special time. My favorites are “Her clothing is so OUTDATED!!!” and “Get her sexy back!” That girl was SO CREEPY!

    I’m always going to remember her asking my boyfriend if he was “the boyfriend” and then patting him on the back and going “good guy!” after he said yes. I’m so lucky to have a boyfriend thats willing to except my lifestyle….

    I was so not expecting to see butt at the end of this post…but here we are. NICE BUTT AMY! xoxo

    • shrinkle says:

      Haha that is too amazing. Geez, I don’t know how Wes deals with having to look at your horribly outdated style every day!

      BTW, did you receive another email from that lady recently? This time she’s casting for a show called “Prank My Mom.” Nice.

      • Zambi (@zambicandy) says:

        Haha no but thats probably because I didn’t give her my info! You should totally forward this e-mail to me? Does it say anything hilarious?

        • shrinkle says:

          (ARE YOU BETWEEN THE AGES OF 18-29, AND YOU HAVE A MOM THAT LIVES IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA??)

          WANNA PRANK MOM?

          NOW CASTING NEW HIDDEN-CAMERA COMEDY SPECIAL!! Have you ever wanted to play a hilarious prank on your mom? We’re looking for sons and daughters between the ages of 18-28, who are great at playing jokes (and keeping a secret). To be considered, you and your mom MUST live in Los Angeles or the surrounding area.

          If your mom is reactive, gullible, full of personality and has a great sense of humor, please send us an email with your name, age, CONTACT INFO, CURRENT PHOTO, and the name, age and CURRENT PICTURE OF YOUR MOM along with why you’d like to prank her. PHOTOS OF YOU AND YOUR MOM MUST BE SUBMITTED FOR CONSIDERATION.

          If this does not fit you or your mom, but you know of someone it does, please pass it along.

          AND REMEMBER…. DON’T SAY ANYTHING…. IT’S A SURPRISE!

  • Jela says:

    Dude, you have such a nice ass!!!!

  • Blaind says:

    Now I’m serously thinking about buying a leotard to wear o the job. OMG I’d feel so sexy (?)

    • shrinkle says:

      You totally should! Where do you work? I hope you don’t get fired! ^__^

      • Blaind says:

        I work doing make up at Barbie Store, maybe if the leotard is pink… hahaha

        • shrinkle says:

          WHOA, are you serious?! Tell me more, that sounds like the dream job!

          • Blaind says:

            It’s a good job really, they pay me for doing colorful and girly make up, and I can have my purple hair and excesive nail art for the work, so I’m really happy with it. I don’t know if there are Barbie Stores all over the world, but in my country we have a few and they are all soooo pinky, full of rhinestons and sell cute cupcakes. It’s really a lovely place ♥

  • Sylvette Marie says:

    super cute

  • JamJammieJam says:

    Pffft. Amy I love your style. Your style. Whats not to love? I bet that lady was just uber jelly she couldn’t pull off such an awesome look. ;3

  • It’s like a DOUBLE blast from the past! This was such a fun night.

  • 1) *que Napoleon Dynamite voice* I like Maria’s sleeves. They’re real big. *snort*

    2) I love that Zoe & her boy have the same haircut, yet each pulls it off in a completely different way. AWESOME.

    3) I have extreme bow envy when I look at Stephiee.

    4) Every time I see a photo of her, all I can think is how much Jessica looks like a brunette Hilary Duff. She’s gorgeous!

    5) Nice buns.

    :D

  • OMG! Epic post!! I think I went a bit mad with the Sugarpill ALL OVER MY ENTIRE FACE but of course I was going for the costume contest gold. Amy I miss you!!!!

  • Nini says:

    You and your friends are awesome!

  • Tea (@liltea) says:

    Hahahaha, the butt gif you posted during Thanksgiving that mysteriously vanished!

    You look hella cute in that tuxedo leotard, lady. I’m glad you didn’t sign up for the brown hair makeover. “Bohemian Granola” sounds like it would taste like feet.

    • shrinkle says:

      Haha I can’t believe you remember that. I deleted it immediately because I found family members (innocent baby cousins!) following me on Twitter. But now I figure oh well, they will all learn sooner or later that big cousin Amy is a huge creep.

  • Ah I LOVE the tuxedo leotard :-D how cool that such a perfect oportunity came along!!!

  • echokittie says:

    I love that some marketing genius saw this event and thought ‘Every person there will be TOTALLY STUCK IN THE “80’s” and be desperate for a makeover!!!” Terrible. Those shows should be banned. They turn everyone into high street clones with no personality.

    In other news, you are all too gorgeous for words!

    • shrinkle says:

      That is EXACTLY what I was thinking. Why look for badly dressed people at a costume party where everyone is dressed horribly on purpose? Haha genius indeed!

  • Lauren says:

    Oh god, that makeover flyer. If I wasn’t worried about them coming to my house and taking the things I like, like that other makeover show does I would so go to the thrift store, make up a persona, pick out some hideous clothes and try to get on that show. Too bad they dress everyone in the same boring style and wouldn’t be worth my time, even if the makeover is worth three dollar signs $$$!

  • Toiletdog says:

    I want your life for two seconds. :)

    I happen to LIKE granola, thank you very much.

  • julie doll says:

    ahh i loved your outfit so much!! hottest at the party<3

    DAT ASS

  • Darlin’ you handled that Style Network stuff WAY better than I would have ever. You are made of sugar.
    You guys make me want to move to California. I will pester my mom forever. ;_;

  • Victoria says:

    OMG I heart your leotard! I absolutely love your style. Eff the flyer.

    Also, I am in love with Snow White’s dress. Hello Kitty + Disney’s version of Snow White = LOVE.

  • yume says:

    HAHA! i choked on my coffee w/ that last picture! holy shit amy ahaha

  • Addie says:

    I think Id rather watch a show where they take boring/trendy people and cool-ify them into cute girls like yall… much, much better!

  • Leann says:

    the style network has a thing for turning awesome people in to middle-aged librarians *YAWN*

    p.s. nice butt

  • Lo (@loraemon) says:

    OMG. You have amazing friends and amazing events!! I almost fell out of my chair when I saw your bare ass though. :D

  • sarah (@@moonxpearl) says:

    Dude, did that woman from the Style network come to the event specifically looking for people who were badly dressed? That’s messed-up. Everyone’s style is different and making everyone into a milquetoast does society no favors.

    You guys looked awesome. Every one of you. I wish I had the confidence to do it up like you guys do…

  • Irene (@looooo3) says:

    Best part is that lady who was recruiting came up to Paul and me, telling Paul how great he looked and I was like umm…he’s wearing a holographic girl/man jacket with tiger faces subliminally placed in there, two pairs of tights for “pants” and red eyeshadow. She asked us if we knew people who should be on the show and I told her she was in the wrong place as this was a theme party, to which she responded, that some of these people actually are like this all the time. Lady, you don’t even know.

  • Cynthia says:

    This comment: “YES, it has COAT TAILS TOO. So fricking hot, I get jealous of myself when I look at this picture” made me freakin laugh so hard! I <3 you and your crazy blog :)

  • nina (@paramoreluver16) says:

    super adorable…dam u “how do i look”

  • katie (@galaxiezero) says:

    i love that your friend has a dark mark tattoo…

  • talisa says:

    I fell in love with the sequin tuxedo leotard! Where did you buy it?
