God bless Chelsea Clinton. Just when we were getting a little fed up with the Republican National Convention’s hold on the news cycle, she swooped in with exactly the pick-me-up we needed: a “throwback Thursday” post full of glorious vintage photos of her mother. Is this shameless pandering to the all-important people-who-enjoy-looking-at-old-pictures demographic? Yes. Are we OK with that? Also yes.
In addition to the hair revelations (including pictures from the days when Chelsea still had curly hair, RIP), the photos also offer a treasure trove of, dare we say, iconic fashion moments. Hillary in a midi-skirt and slouchy boots. Hillary in a bow-tie blouse that is actually extremely cute and looks like something Madewell would sell. Some truly epic sweaters.
You can head to Pop Sugar to see Chelsea’s photo selections, but since we couldn’t get enough of Hillary’s vintage looks (including one with a Game Boy that presages the famous BlackBerry photo), we’ve furnished this post with a few more old photos. We even did the painstaking work of scrolling allllll the way to beginning of Hillary Clinton’s Instagram feed to find the best ones, so you’re welcome.
