You think you and your BFF are the coolest? Think again, my friend. You’re clearly suffering a severe case of 90s amnesia, and conveniently forgetting the two coolest friends of all time, ever ever, ever - Winona Ryder and Claire Danes. The pair both starred in Little Women (WHAT a film) and that was the start of their beautiful friendship.
Way back then, when Claire wasn’t Carrie Mathison and Winona wasn’t a convicted shoplifter turned Netflix superstar, the pair would hang out on the reg. Red carpet events didn’t exist if they weren’t there, and the party never, ever started ‘til they walked in.
Now let’s take a journey back through the decade of all decades. We’re obsessed with the 90s for a reason y’all: it was officially The Best. But don’t just take our word for it! Have a gander at these supremely awesome snaps of the original and the greatest celeb best friends. You are MOST welcome.
1. Claire Nails The 90s Power Pose
You think standing with your legs apart with your hands behind your back makes you powerful? Think again - standing with one popped hip and a jauntily placed hand on said hip is the best way to prove you’re a big dog. Claire knows it. Winona on the other hand is more cautious - because she’s still trying to figure out if the photographer just saw her pick pocket Brad Pitt.
2. Fresh Faced And Glorious
Hey Claire! Give me your jumper. Hey Winona! Give me your hair. There’s something v regal about Claire here in this mesmerising white sparkly jumper/skirt combo. As for Winona? She still looks just a little bit guilty…
3. Just Us, Hanging out, Being Cool AF
This look from Winona is most certainly A Thing. The pixie cut, the raspberry lip, the vampy black dress…. Claire’s look is a little more mid century peasant girl than we'd recommend trying but hey you can’t get right every time can you.
4. We’re Very Sleek And Understated Don’t Ya Know
This is Winny and Clairey 2.0, when they were slowly trying to shred their reps as 90s teen starlets and be taken seriously by Hollywood.
5. Jo, Friedrich and Beth All Hang Out
This must be circa the release of one of the greatest films of all time: Little Women. Classic Winnie wears black (obvs) while Claire demos a more avant garde ultra marine number with perfectly matching eye shadow (also definitely a look.)
