Read man repeller every day from my desk on the trading floor at jpm. An escape with the girls, when I couldn't handle any of the boys next to me. Was so sad when it was over.
Something is in the air. I was talking with some co-workers and saying I don't dress for the male gaze, I'd rather my clothes confuse or repel men...that of course unlocked so many memories and we spent lunch talking about how great that site was.
Amazing issue, Erika!!! I know exactly what rainwear article you're talking about. That was one of my favorite Man Repeller articles back then. ☔
P.S. Sometimes when I'm feeling nostalgic, I use the Wayback Machine to scroll through Man Repeller's old articles. It's not ideal, but it's a way to access the site! 💛
I still have a few bookmarked posts I’ll revisit. How to Feel Better (let yourself feel bad) (paraphrasing) and the one about a mental health shelf were truly tonic for my elder millennial self in the early 2010s.
Also still love an arm party and I feel like that is cool again?

Same but from a law firm. The resurgence of old school blogging via substack has brought me so much joy.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love this and I hate we don’t have it any more 💔
Well now I have you and all the other substack fashion girlies!!!!! That’s a good substitute!!!!
The crush on Eddie Redmayne hit so close to home my jaw dropped
Literally I have no idea what I was on
Turtleneck under a button down is a signature style.
Agree!!
one tab open on manrepeller at all times 🥲
Always
This is so good. Truly an iconic publication.
May it RIP
Love this and thank you for including me!! Made my day :)
you’re an icon!!!!
Aaaaand this is why we’re friends. Long live the MR sisterhood! ;) pun intended
Obsessed
Great times! The comments section was the best community ever. Fashion as a way of communicating and expressing ourselves in a very interesting way. 🩵
This is everything I needed!!!! I took the same brownstone step pic in a similar outfit & easily felt so moody style icon, thank u for the nostalgia
my pleasure!!
