I watched this a little too young but to this day is one of my favorite movies. it’s dark but one of the realest female coming of age films I’ve ever seen.
also a big source of style inspiration.
it’s camp and almost entirely insane, but it’s a bit like a time capsule into the early 2000s. thirteen is a y2k gem, but it’s more an edgy coming of age than fashion focused film. it’s just super fucking stylish.
One of my favorite movies from growing up. Gave my music obsessed self unrealistic expectations to what my life would be like and a whole lot of wardrobe envy. Still such a comfort film for me today as long as I don’t think too deeply about the plot.

I watched this at the young, impressionable age of 15, and it has unfortunately informed my entire life / personality / sense of style.
if you grew up being a people pleaser like me, it can be so damn hard to set boundaries. but it was so great when I finally realized I simply didn’t have to say yes to everything/everyone.
it was wild. blew my mind. I highly recommend.
