Jodie Sweetin Channels Clueless Vibes For Good Morning America Appearance

Instagram/@jodiesweetin

This Instagram post by Jodie Sweetin will catch even a distracted eye; it is a deft Tamblynian bow to the cult classic of 1995, Clueless, before an appearance on Good Morning America. The Full House actress, as her character was referred to, Stephanie Tanner, flaunted that black-and-white plaid pantsuit with stark disregard while doing so in sheer tights and platform shoes. Cherry atop goes to the bright pink handbag for a fun fist-pumping pop of color-a direct throwback to Cher Horowitz’s cobbling together.

Swept away by the caption was Sweetin’s audience: “Channeling Clueless this morning for @goodmorningamerica! 👛” Her followers showered her with praise for the vintage look, one exclaimed, “Definitely seeing the Clueless vibe!” Another one added, “gorgeous girl! i love this outfit ✨💖.” Not quite everybody loved the pink purse. A critic said, “Cute outfit ditch the pink purse.” From there erupted a debate in replies, a few defending the pink purse, saying “the pink purse is a perfect statement color,” only for Mr. Pink Purse Hater to counter with, “My comment my opinion.”

Not stopping at this fun post, the throwback continued! “I’m thinking of Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead. I immediately pictured you saying ‘I’m right on top of that, Rose!’ Lol,” one naughty fan reminded. Others showered Sweetin with praise: “so stinking cute!!” and with “professional look.”

Not too adorable a moment, really, when one lone contrarian came up with a leftfield crack of Sweetin being an “America-hating brainwashed communist,” which was immediately drowned by a suggestion to the critic to “turn off the tv.” Another, however, returned with a sardonic “More like you’re channeling my high school English teacher.”

What fun that was and set tongues wagging about Sweetin’s future career options. One fan suggested, “U could be a co-host on The View,” while another wondered if she was in New York. Sweetin never directly responded to the comments, but that cheeky demeanor the photo exuded, the Clueless vibe, said plenty.

A throwback forever! Styled with less caricature than clutch, it was sass with just a dash of classy. Against a streamlined modern interior, Sweetin actually turned out to be an ensemble with its magnificence somehow glowing even in its 30th year, being proof enough that Clueless style ain’t really out. And if it is a distraction by design or sheer accident, the look also subtly speaks to Sweetin’s versatility. She has come a long way from those pigtails and overalls of Full House.

The Good Morning America scoop was vague, but it was definitely some kind of interest ignited in the fans. “I’ll be watching later on YouTube,” said one, followed by another saying, “You GO GORGEOUS!! You are crushing!!” There was a shoutout for her latest Lifetime TV project from another follower, calling it “🔥!!”

The post reminded the world that Sweetin, now 42, has gracefully transitioned from being a child icon to being both an adult actor and a fashion icon. Whether she is reviving 90s nostalgia or tackling dramas, she continues to captivate audiences. And judging by the look above, she sure can throw down some style and have fun doing it.

Ultimately, the reception of Sweetin’s look was overwhelmingly positive; because some trends-and some stars-never really go out of style. That pink purse debate? Well, that’s just icing on the cake.
