The O.C. Party
Mmm whatcha say...
Overview
The Ryan vs Seth debate incited gang wars (it's all Seth, all the time people, come on). Marissa made our eye twitch with stiff acting and then tore our hearts out in season three (no spoilers hey). Summer retrospectively became our life and style guru. And still, no true O.C. fan can hear Imogen Heap's 'Hide and Seek' without tearing up just a little bit.
For everyone whose teenage expectations of life and love were shaped by the O.C. and Peter Gallagher's eyebrows, listen up: The Bait Shop (aka Supersmall at Good Things in South Yarra) is throwing a huge O.C. themed party this weekend. Cue Youth Group, Death Cab for Cutie, Eels, Jem, The Futureheads, Spoon et al playing on repeat.
They're offering a bar tab for the winner of 'Most Early 2000s Inspired Outfit' (a complex but honourable title) and a range of O.C. themed cocktails including 'White Wasps' as a tribute to Kristen's subtle alcoholism.
Entry is free, there'll be life sized cutouts and an O.C.-themed photobooth, so cancel all existing plans and start fashioning an outfit with maximum spaghetti straps and low-waist, slightly jeans that are neither skinny nor flared.
