She constantly sought the attention and approval of fellow Fashion Club member Quinn and would often side with Quinn when her friend butted heads with Sandi Griffin before getting bullied into taking Sandi's side. In a memorable scene from "[[Gifted]]," Stacy completely relinquishes her own tastes so they become exactly like Quinn's, a change that Quinn didn't approve of and made her leave the house. It is shown on that episode that Stacy looks up to Quinn and considers her to be her best friend, sometimes to a point that even Quinn cannot tolerate. Quinn, for her part, is on friendly terms with Stacy on a day-to-day basis... but she won't date ''any'' boy that she discovers dated Stacy first, even marking them down on a list. ("[[The Daria Database]]") However, when Quinn is only allowed to invite one friend for sleepover in "[[Of Human Bonding]]", Stacy is her first choice.

Her academic ability and intellect was mediocre: in "[[Daria Dance Party]]", she has to be reminded that an essay on Hemingway for English class refers to the writer and not [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariel_Hemingway actress Mariel Hemingway]; her P-STAT in "[[Is It Fall Yet?]]" was only 940 (though this was the second-highest in the Fashion Club) and she made very dumb comments when being tutored; and in "[[Lucky Strike]]" she's horrified at the thought of a 200-word essay and copies Sandi's essay ''even though it's being handed to the same teacher''. "IIFY?" has her express the fear that "I'm such an idiot. I'll never get anywhere in life!". Tutor [[David Sorenson]] does note that while she's not doing very well, she is ''trying'' to learn unlike the rest of the Club. Whether further sessions would've helped her is unknown, as she had a freakout soon after and that put an end to them.

She nevertheless had a meltdown during their first lesson; it is unclear whether they had any more after that.

In "[[Fat Like Me]]", she and [[Tiffany Blum-Deckler]] were left to run the Fashion Club all by themselves... which, in practice, meant ''Stacy'' was running the club and trying desperately to keep it from falling apart (more). At the end, she finally snapped and tore into Tiffany for not bothering to lift a finger to help: her first outburst of anger on the show. When the Club reformed, Stacy showed new backbone by ''openly supporting Quinn''.

In the second movie ''[[Is It College Yet?]]'', Stacy wished that Sandi would stop talking at her birthday. Sandi then came down with laryngitis and Stacy believed it was her fault (Sandi went as far as calling Stacy a "saboteur"). She spent most of her scenes in the film trying to 'cure' Sandi through voodoo and magic. Even though it was proved that it wasn't Stacy's fault, Sandi tried to get her to do a list of "chores" as an apology. Stacy quietly refused and decided to take a sabbatical from the Fashion Club, showing backbone once more: in doing so, she was the cause for the whole Club to break up, which she still found an upsetting thought (even though it was clear they were all going to keep hanging out ''anyway''). (Note: It is disputed whether The Fashion Club still exist as an hierarchical group in the post-canon.)
