Potatoes of a feather flock together. Here are some photos of Rumer and Talullah Willis over the weekend, both of them “rocking” this style that was popular when I was in high school – ill-fitting peasant skirt with a rock & roll t-shirt and combat boots. We’ve actually seen Rumer’s shirt before, so I’m guessing that she either flat-out loves Van Halen (?) or she just likes the way this shirt fits. Rumer’s style has been especially sketchy lately – after trying to be a Fashion Girl (and she’s a model now too!), Rumer has been getting pap’d in an assortment of tragic ensembles. In the range of “booty shorts and boob-baring shirt” (the lowest end of the scale) and “booty shorts, Van Halen shirt and Uggs” (the middle range of the fashion scale), this outfit falls somewhere in between.
Here’s a question, though: why is Rumer getting pap’d in bizarre outfits all of time nowadays? Is she just trying to get her name out there? And why is Talullah following suit? She’s only 17 years old (and a smoker), so I guess I’ll give her a pass. But Rumer’s new awful style is bugging me… I feel like she’s trying to just make news for wearing dumb things. Don’t get me wrong, it’s totally working, but I thought she was on a better track when she was trying to be fashion-y.

Rumer needs a face transplant, everytime I see her I just laugh and laugh and laugh, and we can criticize her looks (before anyone says anything) cuz she’s a “model” so I’m entitled to say that she’s the most hideous creature I’ve ever seen!

They are still young so they can get away with this crap but it is crap and it does absolutely nothing for them. They don’t look edgey or unique. They look like they smoke a lot of pot, listen to Phish and Widespread Panic, and dance the chicken dance, just like kids did back in 1994. The thing is is that 1994 wasn’t so long ago that this look is now retro. It is just boring.

Uh yeah, I remember (and participated) in) this look. Except the t-shirts are all wrong, they need to be xxl and have Morrissey (or Kurt/The Cure/insert fave alternative band here) on them. Maybe it was a New England thing? If you were remotely preppy or popular in high school you would not have touched this look with a bargepole btw, and it was most definitely a look. You had to get the cheap chinatown flats, or DM’s, wear clashing tights, get your pale on with some red hair dye, maybe shave a little hair off the side to be more punk. And this was all BEFORE My So Called Life, that show copied the immediately preceding generation’s style rather than creating it as is often remembered. Mix this with some plaid skirts a la Heathers and sultry sweaters via Twin Peaks and you have my teenage sartorial experience in a nutshell.

So very, VERY 90s (early to mid-90s). Nobody remembers how big those stupid “broomstick” skirts were? They came all twisted up and were available everywhere–your local head shop and even grocery stores? Nobody? Just me and Kaiser?
What really gets me about celebs like these girls (and especially the Olsen twins) is their choice to look like complete slobs despite all of their money to buy the most beautiful clothing available. Ugh…

This is like faux-90′s. Real 90′s would be flowered dresses with actual Doc Martens.

I think it’s cute…they’re sisters holding hands and so young. I wore that messy stuff in HS while experimenting with the grunge look. I also experimented with the 70′s look at that age and probably looked just as ridiculous. I think their age gives them a pass on all their fashion faux pas.

90s? Hardly. The Van Halen shirt looks boutique-y brand new. The peasant skirts didn’t happen. It was more floral baby doll dresses with white socks and Doc Martens – maybe with a flannel shirt over it. These girls have the most tragic chins ever.

I’m convinced that Demi looked like this before her surgery in her early days..she must have had alot.
jaw broken and sawed down etc.
uh, I’m just gonna say they look just alike and they need to tidy up a bit.

I don’t remember this look either. I remember the baby doll dresses with the Docs, but right now these skirts are in. I have one and it looks cute with a tank and sandals. THIS is hideous. Especially with their faces attached.
I thought they had Bruce’s jaw, but man those two gene pools combined are really unfortunate. Must suck to have your mom be hotter than you no matter what her age.

Sadly I think that this was their attempt at dressing like a hipster – not trying to draw attention to their heinous outfits. I mean yes, the 90s does seem to be having a mini renaissance over here (thanks williamsburg) but they’re doing it wrong.

I totally remember this look, although in the early-mid 90s it would have been a large or XL shirt with a flannel over it or tied around the waist. I didn’t own peasant skirts, but plenty of my friends did, and they were worn with DMs or those little Chinese black slippers. I typically wore old jean shorts, a large shirt with a flannel over it, and Chuck Taylors or the Chinese slippers (no DMs for me, as I’m vegetarian and don’t wear leather). I was 14 when the grunge thing first started, and I blame my age (and the over-abundance of acid and pot at my school) for my fashion choices.

My french teacher at University was gorgeous and sexy and all the boys (and some of the girls) swooned for her. Her daughter resembled Miss Piggy (really, I’m not being mean). It was very difficult for her to hear all about how beautiful her mother was when nobody was interested in her. When people found out who her mom was they often said the meanest things right to her face.
That said, I feel badly for those two.

Meh, they’re young. I spent a lot of my teens wearing unflattering outfits, no biggie.
It’s unfortunate that all three girls got the worst of both parents in terms of looks. It’s nice that Demi, who’s had a lot of plastic surgery herself, hasn’t pressured her daughters into it.

Those skirts are amazingly light, comfortable and keep you cool in hot weather.
Would I pair them with those shoes? No, they go better with sandals or flip-flops.
I’m just impressed that they are covered up!
With as many celebrities we see showing their tits and ass, it’s great to see someone out fully clothed and I’m sure as hell am not going to dog on them for it just because what they’re wearing may not coordinate.

Hideous. Clothes and person. I don’t feel bad commenting on Rumer’s looks bc as someone said she’s a “model” plus there have been interviews (I believe) where she fancies herself some sort of celebrity. Having said that, she is a cautionary tale of genetic recombination gone wrong. It’s not that she’s unattractive, per se, it’s that she’s so odd looking in a genetic disorder kind of way.
And I wish “celebrities” would close their mouths already. They look like troglodytes.

I think these skirts have been perpetually in-
if you have ever lived in a college town, you’ve seent hem since the 60′s and they never go out of style at head shops/hippie shops or in said small liberal college towns.
that said, i live in san diego, and they have been on sale at rite aid and cvs for the last 10 years; they are cheap, e asy beach wear….
the pseudo hippie look has been on and off for decades-and decidedly on in some circles the whole time….
i do not associate this with the 90′s exclisively, either-which is when i spent all of my twenties….including most in small college towns of various types….
so anyway, maybe it’s an age thing-which is why you are thinking 90′s? what was your age then? college? yup. that’s about it.
If you have been to humboldt, berkeley, missoula, portland, upstate NY college towns, boulder, etc anytime int he last 40 years, you have seen this skirt or a variation of it. for sure.
um, i like that the other kid-the middle one-stays out of the limelight/fray…..i dont think i’ve ever seen her papped….
rumor looks better with longer hair.

I don’t like their outfits but I think they look cute dressed alike as sisters. How fun!
It must be very difficult to be the daughters of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis. Both of your parents are considered Hollywoods most beautiful and you are just odinary. Then to make matters worst, both of your parents date people that are in your age dating pool. So not only are you competing with them in the looks department you are competing with your mom for guys. And your dad is bringing home girls that could be your sister.

Oh my gosh, I do remember the prairie skirt. At first I thought I was too preppy for a look like that but as I was reading the comments I remember I bought one of those skirts, though I thought mine was prettier and I didn’t wear an ugly shirt with it though. I can’t rememer what part of the 90′s though.

Ditto hollywood101. I wondered why they had their mouths open in every shot. And why can’t Rumer pull up her skirt? It looks ridiculous that low. But then, in general they both kind of do.

I love these type of skirts. You can pretty much mix and match these skirts with whatever top or shoes you want. I usually don a tank top or bustier and either wear boots, sandals, or Converse sneakers with them.
So I really can’t say they look tragic.
And I have mixed feelings on the comments about their faces. On one hand, we all can’t choose what facial structures we’re born with and it’s refreshing seeing people who don’t go straight to the plastic surgeon to fix every little flaw.
On the other hand, they do put themselves out there, so of course criticism is inevitable.
Meh.

Oh, the 90s! I wore these skirts in middle school. They sold them in the mall. I had two of them (and as someone said, I think they were big in the 70s too. But there was a 70s fashion resurgence in the 90s. I look at half the 70s inspired shirts I wore in photos from middle school and think what the ???? was I thinking! Seriously bad. Britney Spears was the only person my age looking decent in the late 90s. Even Justin Timberlake who turned into such a suave hottie had suspect style in the 90s. But I think most people will say the same about the 80s resurgance this decade). Anyway, I remember thinking these skirts were soooo beautiful–I was thirteen!—and being sure I would wear them forever, and then a year passed and I was completely over it. I also had a shirt like this. It was a blue and white quasi baseball team shirt. It was not cute. The fit was suspect and not flattering (you can tell these are ‘vintage’ 90s because they have the same problem) I will also say I never wore the 2 looks together. As for the two girls, I feel bad that people only write such mean things about them. I think they’re both pretty in their own way and it would be so hard to be the child of Demi Moore! These are real people, guys. Have a heart.

Yes, this is reminiscent of the 90s – it’s rock grunge (or something like it). You dressed like this to show you care for the planet, and to not look hip-hop (baggy jeans, backwards baseball cap, bling, etc). It’s like Nirvana meets Woodstock.
I personally think they both look cute. And you knew I would say this because I champion the ordinary-looking offspring of cosmetically-enhanced parent(s) in Hollywood.
But I also like peasant skirts and combat boots as a combo – it’s edgy yet comfy.

Tallulah got the 90s look down. Rumer is scary. I went to that concert. I think that was it. I was 12 and made my mom drive me to the boonies to see the Us Festival. Three days of great 80s rock.
Rumer, we didn’t wear Van Halen in the 90s. It was uncool.

@Tara I had peasant skirts in the 90s. I had Docs, motorcycle boots and (gag) birks. I had flannel shirts. I wore flannel shorts with tights and platforms. If it was hideous I wore it. I had long flat hair parted in the middle. I had lots of granny and babydoll dresses. I was in college in the 90s. It was a lot of fun.

if u wear baggy on the bottom u should pair it with camies/tanks or something more fitting on the top. Shoes are ok with pants and/or skirts. Or you wear a SHORT baggy dress above the knee so u show some leg. There’s many ways to look grunge and not dirty or sloppy. Use 90210 reruns as reference.
