Back to Cool: Empire Records

13

With the current '90s grunge revival comes Dr Martens, tartan skirts and big knitted jumpers. When I see this look I can't help but think of classic '90s movie Empire Records starring Liv Tyler as Corey.

Corey is a bit clueless but adored by the oh-so-cute A.J. even though she's lusting after rock star Rex Manning. I like Corey's cute take on grunge with tiny kilt and fluffy cropped jumper.

There's a lot of tartan around at the moment following it appearance on the catwalk at D&G and House of Holland.

Here's a way to copy her style.

I own about 6 catholic school girl skirts and i think this film is a big reason why...wanted to look like Cory when i was younger...and get with A.J as well!

I was actually contemplating getting this when I saw it ridiculously cheap in HMV. Wish I had done now, I did love the fashion in it at the time...
