This Street Style edition is featuring Tina McIntyre's shopgirl outfit worn on the Monday August 24, 2009 episodes.
Tina's personal style reflects her personality: youthful, price-conscious, flirty and casual. It's also relatively low-maintenance, compared to some of the ladies on the street of her age (read: Rosie Webster). I find that Tina's personal style is quite close to that of Molly Dobbs'. Only, Tina doesn't try as hard to dress it up as Molly does. This is likely because Tina has a similar lifestyle to Molly's, and her style reflects that lifestyle. She works in a shop, makes a reasonable (minimum?) wage, doesn't have a lot of money to go to a salon, somehow always has a tan, and has a tradesman for a mate.
Needless to say, she has a few showy pieces in her closet and doesn't mind dusting off the sex-appeal when necessary (remember her black ensemble when she was wooing our Jason?), but it's not full of pantsuits and gowns, or any expensive designer pieces. Tina's a woman-on-the-go who doesn't take an hour to dress herself, since she's got bigger fish to fry. Tina manages to look cute, well-kept and respectably dressed. Enough to attract a handsome fella! (Jason, not David).
In any case, Tina's one of those women for whom it really doesn't matter what she wears, because she'll always look great since she's got youth and beauty on her side. She knows that the woman wears the clothes, the clothes don't wear the woman.
Here's where you can get an outfit similar to Tina's:
Blue & White Checked Shirt: Great Plains, Picnic Shirt, Indigo (click here)
Boyfriend Jeans: New Look, Slouch Boyfriend Jeans, Crinkled Slouch Jeans (click here)
Gold Hoop Earrings: New Look, Hoop Earrings, Plain Hoop Earrings (click here)
Is there anything that you've ever seen on The Street that you'd like to have, but don't know where you can find something similar? Are you interested in any particular character's personal or decorating style? For any Street Style requests, send me a line!

And the pen she's holding? I think it's the kind that has 2 or more colours in it, that you switch with a little push down lever thingy on the top. Those were all the rage in the 70s when i was in school!!!
Oh, those things are still around. I think I have one at home! Mine has blue, red, black AND green. I think you can get that at an pound (or dollar) shop. Four-pens-in-one never go out of style!
