Mary Katharine Ham Instagram – We are doing Y2K Bingo with this picture I found of myself in the Year of our Lord, 2000! There are so many treasures here! Behold: MK gettin’ ready to go out in her messy college-era room, furnished with my childhood furniture because I had no money to buy anything else. It occurs to me that we curate photographs so much now, and cropping and ‘shopping are so easy, we will lose a lot of these kind of treasures from our pics in this decade. A photo of me in 2000 is fine, but the background is really the good stuff. A time capsule! You may notice, among all the silliness, that there is also a copy of Strunk & White on my nightstand because it is timeless and on brand. The full list: 1. Short hairstyle ala Kelly Taylor late 90210 era 2. Dep for spiking said hairstyle when in butterfly clips 3. Foundation too light for my skin 4. Spaghetti straps 5. Flare jeans, probably low-rise Mudds 6. Platform sandals for goin’ out 7. Adidas shell toes 8. Chunky boots I saved up to buy from Delia’s 9. My crappy foundation 10. Burnt CDs next to my… 11. Boom box 12. Clinique sampler bag 13. Stripey socks 14. Teen Study Bible with neon art 15. Copy of Cosmo (Not in version of pic that fit on Insta)
