Sassy Magazine LIVES

Born in the 70s, frolicked in the 80s, came of age in the 90s. Sassy Magazine helped me not become a twat. Hit me up in other places! Pop culture tumblr: Crying & Driving Proper Blog: Citizenrobot Wine tumblr: Wine Stains Proper Wine Blog: Legion of the Purple Teeth Jitter: @citizenrobot

IS TEEN VOGUE THE NEW SASSY MAGAZINE? DISCUSS.

[sassyscans]

Hi! With the recent Teen Vogue article by Lauren Duca about Donald Trump's gaslighting, there has been renewed interest in the Sassy classic "What the Heck are We Doing in the Persian Gulf?" Do you have the February 1991 issue of Sassy on hand, and can you put scans of the article up or send them to an interested party?

I’ll look for it. I don’t have every issue but I wish I damn well did.

Bikini Kill Share Unreleased Track "Playground"

[sassyscans]

hello! do you have any scans of the back page comic strip in Sassy? I think it was set at a Hot Dog on a Stick, and there was a character called Althea? I don't know if I'm going crazy, but I'm trying to track it down. Any help would be great. Thank you again!

Oh I do remember the Althea comics! I will look for her!

Kim Gordon at the X-Girl fashion show in 1994:

I can’t really wear any of the clothes now ‘cause I’m seven months pregnant. I’m having a girl. I hope that she’s a Riot Grrrl.

I owe you some scans. COMING SOON I SWEAR

[sassyscans]

I really like this fashion spread from the August 1994 issue because the models (credited as Shawna and Roberto) remind me of Shannyn Sossamon and Chris Cornell respectively. It's also a good reminder that FLEECE doesn't have to mean the same old plain jane navy blue North Face sweater, okay ladies.

[sassyscans]

HEY!!! How dare you post pictures of the best 90s teen magazine and only have 6 pages?! Come back!! I need more!

I'mma throw something up today, I know I've been remiss in scanning mein sassies. Plain old regular life has a way of tearing you away from the beloved embrace of Tumblr.

Here it is! You CLAMORED for it and you got it, courtesy of Sassy fan Remyrogue - the Twin Peaks fashion spread from the October 1990 issue of Sassy Magazine.

PLEASE do not remove the Flickr attribution or re-upload this photo set. Remy LeBeau worked very hard to track down this magazine and share these images with us! I know there is very little I can do to stop you from doing these things but heed my words - stealing is not the Sassy Magazine way.

FYI my favorite MC Lyte track is RUFFNECK. School thyself.
