Win a $100 Shopbop giftcard courtesy of Shopbop & Juicy Couture
The folks over at Shopbop, in collaboration with Juicy Couture (check out their velour collection - Stacey McGill AND Kristy Thomas approved), want to give away a $100 Shopbop giftcard to one lucky What Claudia Wore reader. Shopbop has an awesome collection of designers (helpful link for the underemployed: shop the sale section by designer) and I doubt you'll have any trouble finding something dibbly fresh.
As a starting point, here's a Claudia-approved statement necklace I found in Juicy Couture's on sale offerings. I bet it would look slammin' with a pair of silver lamé bicycle shorts, one of Mr. Kishi's button-downs, and those Jeffrey Campbell clog booties I love so much.
How to enter:
1. Leave a comment with your e-mail address and favorite BSC member.
2. Cross your fingers and wait patiently. Maybe pass the time by throwing a slumber party for six of your closest friends, complete with pizza, pigtails, and pillow fights.

«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 374 Newer› Newest»When I was younger, it was totally Mary Anne. Now I'm feeling more like Staci. I'm not sure what that says about me. But I do like clothes...

Mary Anne 4 life!

I always had solidarity with my fellow denim-lovin' California Girl Dawn, even though I share a name down to the letter with Kristy.
[email protected]
I've always been a Dawn girl. I bet I could find some California Casual clothes there...

while i identified more with maryanne, claudia was definitely my favorite...
laurenmanke AT gmail DOT com
oh it's stacey. hate the name, love the hair.
kate.dietrick AT gmail DOT com
Claudia forever.
evelynclaire (at) gmail (dot) com
Totally Mary-Anne, especially when she want to learn how to read and walk at the same time,like Claudia's older sister, I still want that skill.
[email protected]
Claudia, always and forever. Even had the fancy doll.
laurahauser AT gmail DOT com
Claudia!!!
[email protected]
I definitely identified with Mary Anne, being a fellow book worm.
DAWN. I loathed/loved her. She's absolutely NOTHING like me.
[email protected]
mamihlapinatapei09 AT yahoo DOT com
I was always a Dawn fan, though not because of the wardrobe...
[email protected]
Claudia was my favorite by far. Junk food AND ridiculous clothes?? We would have totes been bffs.
[email protected]
Abby Stevenson! Kidding, Claudia, of course!
Mary Anne was my favorite. When I was 10, my family moved and my mother asked what I wanted the colors of my bedroom and the upstairs bathroom to be. I asked for pink and white, just like Mary Anne.
clothdoll at gmail dot com
Well, first it was Claudia, briefly trumped by Abby (I thought having a twin was the coolest) but now back to Claudia.
jenne.speegle[at]gmail.com
Kristy! (The Kristy and Bart storyline was so titillating...)
sarah.ea.wood AT gmail DOT com
Mary Anne!
sara.marie.judy [at] gmail [dot] com
Stacey was always my favorite!
bluelamp AT gmail DOT com
I always wanted to be as artistic and fun as Claudia (although I abhorred her spelling even when I was young, haha).
a.s.arch @ gmail . com
Claudia, duh. Is there any other choice?
carly927 at gmail dot com
Stacey! Sooooo sophisticated!
claudia is and always will be my favorite!
[email protected]
First time posting a comment here, but I love this blog so much. As a childhood fan of the BSC, I love all the references and fashion bits (those were my favorite parts too). My favorite members were Claudia (of course) and Dawn (she was from Cali like me!). And my email address is [email protected]
It's been Claudia from day one.
notshybutsly AT gmail DOT com
Dawn--California and a younger brother: my 10-year-old self and she were basically the same person.
meave.g [at] gmail
thanks!
Kristy, always.
[email protected]
I'm gonna say...Claudia, as cliche as it is. Me and my homegirl Kishi are tight. Although I am rather partial to Mary-Anne.
[email protected]
It used to be Kristy before Abby came sneezing in. I used to find the allergies and curly hair absolutely fascinating.
[email protected]
I always loved Claudia. I would skim through the first few pages to get to the descriptions of her outfit and then attempted to replicate them in my own futile pre-teen way!
[email protected]
When I was younger, it was Mallory (gross), but now I would have to say... Kristy.
[email protected]
I always loved me some Claudia. Junk food, fashion, and Nancy Drew? Yes please. I am a bit better at spelling though...
[email protected]
Mallory. She was entertaining. What would the BSC be without their frizzy, spazz-girl, cRaZy, freckly, glasses-wearing 11 year old?!
[email protected]
Claudia all the way. I never bought her as the "not school-smart" type either!
[email protected]
i heart stacey :) and your blog!
shuboxblog at g mail dot com.
I see that no one is choosing Mallory... Poor Mallory, indeed! My favorite is definitely Claudia.
Megancgodfrey at gmail dot com
i've gotta say kristy, girl gets no love.
and i'm emma.needleman AT gmail DOT com
Claudia Lynn Kishi! I thought she was THE literary embodiment of my nine year old self. Asian artistic junk food lover? Hello!
sandyw85 AT gmail DOT com
mary anne!
[email protected]
I've always been a fan of kristy.
worldlywise247 AT gmail DOT com
hmm, dawn. I'm a hippie at heart!
callah.yogalife (at) gmail (dot) com
The ever dibbly-fresh Stacey, of course!
[email protected]
Claudia, of course!
[email protected]
Mary Anne!
meghan at shopsavvycinderella.com
I never had a favorite until Abby! I love her. twirLsheLLs at yahoo dot com
THANKS!
Claudia because of the style, or Jessi, because I always felt like she'd be pretty chill.
[email protected]
Mine is Stacey, although I always thought she'd be too cool to hang out with me.
[email protected]
Mary Anne/tiger
remarkablerockets at gmail
I started off living for Mary Anne and her romance with Logan but I think I switched to Stacey as I got older.
Elysabeth dot Reichman at gmail dot com.
It has always been Stacey.
[email protected]
Claudia-- for the fashion alone.
I once wore a day-glo orange (think Hunting gear) long sleeve shirt with a black plaid jumper because I thought it was something Claudia would wear--so I guess she is my favorite!
avigail dot oren at gmail dot com
Kristy... I feel that we could have brought the snarkiness.
Stacy <3 Always, even when she was bad and quit the BSC for her cool shoplifting friends.
[email protected]
Mary Anne is my favorite BSC-er, definitely. So much so that my LJ screen name is imamaryanne.
Would love to enter!
nhboisture(at)gmail(dot)com
It was definitely Stacey until Shannon came along.
Forgot to add my email address! [email protected]
Claudia!! She was like my superhero via mad fashion experiments. Also, junk food stashes. <3
[email protected]
Stacey! I always wanted a fluffy perm.
[email protected]
Stacey - always. I think when I was younger it was (embarrassingly) the hearts over the "i's."
[email protected]
Mary-Anne, definitely. sheena louise at gmail dot com.
Claudia was always my favorite!
[email protected]
Mallory. Who wouldnt want bushy red hair and 8 siblings to babysit?
But really probably Staci. The fabulous clothes, blonde permed hair, and access to NYC was dream as a kid.
[email protected]
Totally Claudia!
rachel.gordon[at]gmail[dot]com
sounds kind of like sucking up, seeing as how this blog is 'what claudia wore,' but CLAUDIA KISHIIIIIII and her love for crazy accessories!
lollipoppingsu @ gmail
Claudia was def my first fashion icon but it was Stacy who had me convinced I had diabetes at age seven.
nickeecoco AT gmail DOT com
Oh, def KRISTY!!
i am [email protected] :-)
it was always & forever Claudia. mainly because she was the next logical step up from Punky Brewster in regards to fashion.
katylou AT gmail.com
For reasons my adult self cannot entirely understand...Mallory. Yes, Mallory.
I don't even know.
mjsantiago3 at gmail dot com
Claudia, always.
[email protected]
I always loved Kristy. I even had her doll, and I loved it.
Poodlegoose @ gmail.com
Claudia, definitely. And Shannon. (How did Shannon end up being one of my favorite characters when she was only in, like, two books?!)
I'm definitely a Mary Anne. Does Shop Bop have any plaid skirts or knee socks?
Claudia... duh! But I liked Stacey when she wasn't being a bitch.
[email protected]
I related to Kristy the most - but I secretly wanted to dress like Claudia!!
[email protected]
Stacey was always my favorite...Claudia was a close second, but only because she couldn't spell.
automaticsoap AT yahoo DOT com
I think when I was growing up, it was Mary Anne, because we were both such goody two-shoes...now I think, probably Claudia :)
a.golden.mean @ gmail.com
i think maryanne was my favorite when i was younger. i wish i looked good in polos so i could rock some prep-chic clothes :D
ameliaheartsu(at)gmail.com
Oh, Claudia. You and your almond-shaped eyes and penchant for unhealthy snacks. I always felt akin to Mary Anne for some reason, but secretly wanted to be more like Claudia. Today, my love for fearless fashion overturns my sentiments towards sweet MA, and I choose Claudia!
[email protected]
Absolutely Claudia!
[email protected]
Claudia for sure!
[email protected]
[email protected]
Claudia, because I've always wanted to be as effortlessly fashion-forward as she is.
DAWN! I always thought I loved Stacey, but real talk, Dawn's hippie diet is what pushes her over the edge and makes her my BSC BFF
perfunctory at gmail dot com
annstarrr(at)gmail.com
Whoa, team Stacy all the way! She was so glamorous.
tralliott (at) gmail (dot) com
I'm more of a Mary Anne myself, but my favorite has always been Claudia! I can only dream of being as awesome as she is.
back in my BSC heyday i was definitely a mary anne girl, which probably explains my obsession with claudia. that and that i, too, can't spell.
[email protected]
Well, my faves were Stacey & Dawn. I was obsessed. And surprise surprise I grew up to be hybrid of both. A bit of a glam hippie.
But I totally did the Claudia thing of stashing candy all over my room. I thought I was so cool...
[email protected]
Jessie all the way. The series gave her short shrift and I bet she was a pretty rad girl once you got to know her.
[email protected]
I was all about Mary Anne when I was little, but now I think I'd be more into Dawn.
kaci {dot} boyd {at} gmail {dot} com
I've been a Claudia fan from day one. When I was eight, I used to write down all of Claud's outfits and try to recreate them with my own clothes and puffy paint. Claudia's still remains my fav BSC member! = )
[email protected]
I love your blog!
I was always a Claudia girl, m'self.
[email protected]
Claudia of course!
[email protected]
Oh no, I'm conflicted! Claudia's got the sweetest style, obviously, but I love Mary Anne for being such an awesome passive-aggressive basketcase.
chesh.cheshworth at gmail dotcom
Claudia FTW!!!
[email protected]
I WANTED to be Stacey like nobody's business. But I was totally Mary Anne, at the time.
lizellcessor AT gmail DOT com
You can't fail with Claudia
fabfolu AT gmail DOT com
Even though i never tried any of her fashion creations, I definitely identified with Claudia's candy stashing and painting.
amydgrossmanATgmailDOTcom
Kristy -- cuz I'm 'bossy' like that.
lindseyjaye (at) gmail.com
Mary Anne has always been my favorite, I am mesmerized by her hair. haha
[email protected]
Mary Anne, I identified with her because I was always quiet as a kid. And I have brown hair too :P
megan_070 [AT] hotmail.com
I always wanted to be Claudia! But Dawn comes in a close second, despite how much everyone else seems to dislike her. I liked how she went out and did activist things, even if she was brat about it.
[email protected]
a friend told me about this blog, and I spent an entire evening reading the archives. you are fantastic for bringing back the books that took up so much of my youth.
i always loved claudia. that butterfly self portrait was an inspiration. i also remember being pleased about the ridiculous things that happened to her, like the jewel that got hidden in her pumpkin purse!
thanks.
cel4368 at gmail dot com
Mary Anne, definitely, although I also love Claudia and Kristy (in that order).
jencatgirlATaolDOTcom
Hmm, tough one. But I think I'll have to go with Kristy!
[email protected]
I loved Stacey. She was sophisticated and rocked a perm, something I failed miserably at on both counts.
[email protected]
i always admired claudia's candy hiding skills, we never got candy so i loved her! and her side pony. word!
Claudia! Spelling should be creative anyways...
[email protected]
Claudia, of course! Girl knew what was up.
[email protected]
Stacey, of course. I, too, know what it's like to be far more sophisticated than one's friends.
[email protected]
Mary Anne. I always liked the character I identified most with.
gsfieldhockey15 AT hotmail dot com
Claud has always been my favorite--she was the one I wished I was like, even though I was a little more of a Mary Ann in reality.
kittenbonanza at yahoo dot com
I love Stacey because of the time she totally sent a "fuck you" to her diabetes by eating all those Christmas cookies. I mean, she ended up in the hospital, but whatever. She's New York, okay?
[email protected]
Am I the only one who had Mallory as a favorite? Heck, I loved horses and writing bad stories. She was reassuringly nondescript!
I was totally like Mary Anne, but I've always loved Claud.
She's the reason I went into fashion.
alicia DOT g DOT ferguson AT gmail DOT com.
I think I'm going to go with Mary Anne because I'm cute but shy, LOVE animals, and have mild to moderate emotional problems.
[email protected]
Fun! My favorite BSC member was obviously Claudia!
cambridgechic (at) gmail (dot) com
stacy! i was a spelling snob and couldn't have liked claudia best. i am from california, and thought dawn's eating habits were weird. (i didn't understand the health food stereotype until i moved to the east coast!) mallory and jessie were too young, kristy too tomboy, mary anne too nerdy. yes, stacy was my chic heroine.
Claudia was always my favorite, and I'm not just saying that because I want to win! I too dressed like a crazy person for most of my childhood, so I related to her and her mismatched patterns and homemade jewelry.
[email protected]
CLAUDIA FOR LIFE!
Flaneurinthecity at gmail dot com
I was totally a Mary Anne, but wanted to be Stacey; she was so glamourous! But Mary Anne had Logan...
[email protected]
Stacey of course! That perm, that sophistication...
slkblake (at) gmail (dot) com
Kristy!
whenyouseesparks at gmail dot com
Dawn...or maybe Stacey. Gotta stick with my fellow blondes :)
[email protected]
I was a major tomboy in elementary/middle school so it was Kristy alllll the way! But I did love Claudia's clothes and the way she stashed junk food allover her room
[email protected]
I liked Stacey, she was really cool and smart!
helen.ogubazgi (at) hotmail (dot) com
Oooh, it used to be Dawn. I even entered a contest once, where I had to write an essay about which BSC member I was most like, and I picked her.
Now I think I'm more like Mary Anne.
man.. where's the love for jessi? lol
my fave's mary anne, though i would be embarrassed to have admitted that when i was younger.
juliejyang(at)gmail(dot)com
[email protected]
I really liked Claudia. My least favorite was Mallory, hands down.
Definitely Mary Anne. A girl after my own heart.
june.fifth at gmail dot com
My favorite is the oh-so-sophisticated New Yorker, Stacey McGill.
karenstanton [at] gmail [dot] com
i freaking LOVED stacey. i think it was my quest to be a blonde, though my nearly black hair said otherwise.
[email protected]
I used to be obsessed with Mary Anne!
[email protected]
Claudia's lasting influence: me and my friends wore brightly colored spiral landline phone cords around our necks.
uberpoof at yahoo dot com
Totally Claudia! Always has been, always will be. When I was younger though, I went to a book signing with Ann M. Martin. When I got up to her, I was so nervous that when she asked me, I said Kristy, and I've always regretted it. This makes up for it! lol
[email protected]
Kristy Thomas! We share a first name and have an intense concept of loyalty. I could never let myself like Dawn or Abby because I was too protective of Kristy.
My email address is [email protected]
I liked Kristy the best when I was a kid - I identified with the blended family aspect and I loved reading about the different stuff they found on the "third floor" and the witch neighbor.
Erinwalser@ gmail.com
when i was growing up, it was always mary anne but now i think it's dawn!
sorry, forgot my e-mail address:
[email protected]
ashley wyeth, duh! yeahyeahyeah she wasn't a member but i really value her pot stirring abilities. now back to following the contest rules: i vote kishi for president.
[email protected]
Claudia, always and forever.
violaceous.steph AT gmail DOT com
Claudia! Who doesn't love snacks?
rachael_diffy AT yahoo DOT com
Stacey. To my 14 year-old self she made diabetes seem glamorous!
[email protected]
Kristy and I would be BFFs. Jeans and tshirts, athletically inclined, rather no-nonsense. Love her.
amybracken AT gmail DOT com
my favorite has always been claudia, hands down!
[email protected]
Wow, a contest, how awesome! Sleep over commencing promptly. Favorite character was probably Stacey--she was who I was deemed to "be" when we played BSC in 4th grade. Old school, booya.
angiesommer at gmail.com
Ooh, contests! I love contests!
My favourite baby-sitter now is Stacey (because she's the most interesting). Mary Anne used to be my favourite when I was a kid, though, because we looked kind of similar, dressed in kind of the same way, and were both shy.
ms [dot] cellophane [at] gmail [dot] com
Claudia, natch! OK, so sometimes I considered changing teams and favoring Dawn because of her environmentalism and California Casual boho attitude. But her style didn't live up to the 'tude and she just couldn't compare to a character who MADE HER OWN jewelry and accessories and clearly led a totally independent and mature lifestyle, conducting personal calls and business meetings from her bedroom! Oh alright, the bottom line is that all that is well and good, but really the hidden candy sealed the deal. I wasn't allowed access to it either back when the books were originally published and Claudia's ability to not only acquire, but maintain a stock in her totally private bedroom (again, ever-independent and mature!) made her nothing short of a role-model.
Definitely Kristy; her spunk makes up for her lack of fashion sense. Jessi is a close second.
[email protected]
Mary Anne. I can relate
slpiepenbrink AT gmail DOT com
I really wanted to be Stacey but I think in reality I was more of a Kristy...
sweetiewolfie at aol dot com
I am so Kristy- tomboy in ripped jeans and a ponytail.
rascal2558 @ gmail dot com
Being a Eurasian it'd have to be Claudia.
I wanted to punch Kristy and Mary Anne in the head...I was a violent child.
[email protected]
Kristy is my favorite because she's not afraid to be a bossy bitch and wear Collie hats, even when neither is appropriate.
auciellok at gmail dot com
I always liked Dawn the best (I was a very environmental child- that School House Rock song with the earth singing about energy always made me cry).
Personality-wise, I am more of a Mary Anne. I'm shy, quiet, and cry easily.
My email: [email protected]
Claudia, no brainer!
I always liked Stacey despite her brattiness sometimes.
Cwang 3188 at gmail dot com
Laura
Claud always!
twinkltwrp@ hotmail.com
Definitely Claudia. I aspired to her level of fashion, at a time in my life when I only went shopping twice a year.
[email protected]
You've probably already given it away, but my favourite Baby Sitter is Claudia, of course :)
[email protected]
Hey-ya! My e-mail is neverenoughcoffee (at) gmail (dot) com. Claudia was of course my favorite! She even had me making jewelry out of random items. Love.
My favorite was always Mary Anne.
[email protected]
Absolutely Stacy, even if she was a mini Mean Girl. Actually, probably because she was a mini Mean Girl.
[email protected]
[email protected]
Dawn, definitely.
Stacey McGill, always and forever. It's my nom de plume...
[email protected]
I was always M.A.!
I'm a dreamboat secretary, although I'd adopt Stacy's handwriting anyday.
Before BSC, I never knew hearts were even LEGAL in handwriting!!
[email protected]
Why is these even a question!?
DUH.
CLAUDIA.
[email protected] (an e-mail address I made in the fifth grade and sadly still use today)
mary anne! hello! :)
[email protected]
Every why has a wherefore.............................................................
[email protected]
I have to say it was probably Stacey because I am from New York, and so was she. Also, when her parents were getting divorced, she put on a wooden necklace with fruit on it, which struck me as sort of cool, at the time.
I'd love to say Mallory out of pity for the underdog, but alas, it was totally Dawn. Cool, casual, laid-back, yet responsible. ME = DAWN.
[email protected]
I used to like Dawn, but I'm totally a Claudia girl now - after rereading I can fully appreciate the crazyness of what she wore.
[email protected]
I always said it was a tie between Stacey and Claudia. But I related more to Dawn because we were both from CA and I even dressed up as Dawn for Halloween one year.
and my email address is
[email protected]
Stacey McGill: the chic-est middle schooler around!
[email protected]
Claudia is the only one who never pisses me off, but I quite like Abby too.
emilie_nantel [a] yahoo.ca
It was always Stacey for me :P.
[email protected]
Thanks!
Mary Anne. She was quiet and studious, but managed to not be boring.
[email protected]
Claudia, of course!
[email protected]
Hmm... when I was younger it was a tie between Stacey and Dawn. A hybrid for the two. I never really realized Claudia's fashion sense until reading this blog!! LOVE IT!
[email protected]
DAWN! Mostly for the chambray ensembles. At the end of the day, I really think I love Ann M Martin and her dogs the best! I'd like to see that super special!
Claudia for President! Candy and safety pin necklaces for everyone!
katie(dot)donbavand(at)gmail(dot)com
Claudia. Obviously. Anything else would be inappropriate.
[email protected]
kristy...it's the tomboy in me
allison DOT diehl AT gmail DOT com
I have always loved Stacey. She had awesome clothes, a sweet perm, and was a Mathlete.
[email protected]
Abby replaced Staci as my favorite the moment she arrived.
[email protected]
I always loved Stacey - she had the boy-crazy stories with swoony Toby, Sam, and Robert, the awesome clothes, and the New York background I always dreamed about.
I love Claudia a lot more now, but it always annoyed me when they called her "exotic" looking, especially since I'm Asian myself. Thanks for the Othering, AMM.
[email protected]
What can I say, I really liked Mary-Anne. Probably because I identified with her...because I was lame.
thisris AT gmail dot com
Clearly Claudia!! Native American inspired feather earrings, tuxedo pants, backward suspenders and all!!
I think when I was younger I loved Dawn. But now I'm more into Mary Anne and of course, our girl Claudia.
Kristy's bad-assed-ness from the first book sold her to me before anyone else was introduced. Though I did sort of want Dawn's hair and secret tunnel.
caporushesAThotmailDOTcom
claudia ftw! because of what she wore:)
[email protected]
Dorky, bespectacled, nerdy, pathetic, braceface Mallory is my favorite!
sberkemeyer AT gmail DOT com
Stacey for sure.
jeni_54 at yahoo dot com
claudia to the max!
[email protected]
Claudia forever. I've always been the crazy/artistic hot mess- with a penchant for junk food and fashion.
