in things i completely forgot about until a random listen of zooropa today, naomi campbell totally used to go out with my 90s boyfriend adam clayton. remember that?
remember how cool they were?
ok, so maybe not. maybe their coolness isn’t of a vintage that holds up well, being as it is of the early 90s. but, i swear, this was 90s cool. it really really was. naomi is wearing brenda walsh’s sunglasses and ahhhhhhndrea zuckerman’s choker. by the end of season 4, david silver will be wearing everything you see on adam clayton here. THIS IS THE APEX OF CHIC. which is why it’s unfortunate that seeing it now we want to scream ‘holy moses!’ and shield our eyes.
does this picture of bono being as awesome as he’s ever been make it better?
my point, though, (and it’s a rather overly personal one that will be of little consequence to anyone else) is this: naomi campbell dated my 90s boyfriend adam clayton…
and now she has been seen in the company of my current boyfriend adrien brody…
(who, incidentally, i may need to break up with because getty images have him on record wearing this weird hoodie thing…
which is ENTIRELY TOO CLOSE to kkk garb for comfort, though it does have the effect of rendering adam and naomi’s 90s clothes less offensive.)
the question raised by the fact that naomi campbell dated my 90s boyfriend adam clayton and may or may not be dating my current boyfriend adrien brody is this: do naomi campbell and i have the same taste in men?!??!?
Randomly stumbled upon your blog after googling ‘Naomi Campbell 90s’ and I love it, sorry to say that 90s fashion is definitely making a come back – pretty positive I saw someone rocking NC’s whole outfit just the other day…
ah, thank you! yeah, the 90s were a great time for pop culture and a deeply horrid time for clothes!
