Stylespiration Series : The Plastics from Mean Girls

I must have seen Mean Girls at least a hundred times now. I never get bored watching it over and over and over! The Plastics have become so famous for their fashion choices. So here are some tips for dressing like Regina, Karen, Gretchen and even Cady when she joins in.

Wear pink on Wednesdays!

Okay, so you don’t really have to abide by this rule. The Plastics are mostly seen in shades of pink on other days too.  Look for cute tank tops, tees, skirts and basically all items of clothes in pink and pastels. Don't overdo it though!

Pair pink tops with solid or printed bottoms in black, tan, grey and blue.

Wear lots of skirts

The Plastics only wear jeans on Fridays. They're seen in miniskirts and dresses for the rest of the week. If miniskirts aren't your thing, look for mid or tea length skirts. Get these in different styles and fabrics for different looks.

Let your style be unique

Even the Plastics have distinct dressing styles if you look closely. Regina wears short skirts, collared shirts, blazers, tanks and jackets. Karen's style is very girly. She wears cute printed skirts, tanks with little messages on them and tees with frills and bows. Gretchen wears golf sweaters, cropped tops that show off her midrib and short dresses.

Even if you're doing this with friends, don’t be clones. Show off your assets and wear what you feel great in.

Accessories

Wear super cute stacked bracelets, earrings and necklaces. You could also get a pendant with your initial on it like Regina. Shoes should also meet the brief,but take into consideration the weather and what kind of surface you'll be walking on. Don't wear pink heels for a trekking expedition.

Hairstyles

As per the Plastics' rules, they wear ponytails only once a week. Don't do that…Seriously, if you have long hair and you leave it open all the time, it’s bound to become a hassle. As for the hairstyles in the movie, you see stick straight, blown out, curled, wavy and everything in between. Cady wears her hair in a bun, Regina wears a single braid and there are half up- half downs everywhere.

So you have a plethora of choices when it comes to styling your hair. Choose what suits you best. Add cute hair clips, ribbons, bows and hair ties to finish the look to Plastic perfection.

So get ready to form your own version of the Plastics, but don’t be mean!
