Betty and Veronica the original frenemies, brought an element of drama and excitement every time I went to the grocery store. Making sure I picked up the newest Archie comic by the cashiers before I cruised with my parents around the grocery store for an hour, I ended up with an insane collection of these wonderfully entertaining comic books. A borderline hoarder size collection. That led to a religious following of their pseudo Scooby Doo show, Archies Weird Mysterys. But there was just so much to these comic books, with their excerpts of mini series like Josie and the Pussycats and Lil Jinx, Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Ginger, not to mention the awesome Lisa Frank ads that would almost always pop up in between comics offering a wide array of the coolest and most colorful school supplies around. The awesome characters with their complicated friendships and constantly interweaving romances were enough to keep a 10 year old version of myself completely drawn in, maybe so much so that I was completed blinded to how crazily awesome the cartoonist was at giving Betty and Veronica the coolest wardrobe ever. Sitting bored at work and stumbling my life away I was totally surprised by a random tumblr that popped up that was completely dedicated to the many fashions of the infamous duo, and going through it i realized just how deserving they were of their own tumblr. As the title of my newest fashion idols goes to Betty and Veronica, I feel that I can now justify my obsession and reaffirm my choice in always being a Veronica girl.
Next time I make it home to Toronto its time to make use of my obscene collection, I guess stashing them away until my 20's was totally worth and not a waste of space, despite what my parents say.
