It’s Handled | Olivia Pope Style


It’s no secret around these parts that I am a huge fan of Scandal! I think the writing, plot and characters are all amazing. What I love most about the show is the 2nd star and I’m not talking about Fitz! Olivia Pope’s wardrobe has become such a scene stealer that The Limited created a whole collection. I thought it would be fun to pay homage to the show kicking off it’s fourth season tonight with two of my very own Olivia Pope worthy styles!! 




Olivia Pope Style

Drape Collar Wrap Coat//The Limited

Tweed Skirt Suit// Ann Taylor

Sloan Sheath Dress//Banana Republic

City Calf Double Bag//Prada

D’Orsay Patent Pumps//J.Crew

We know that Kerry Washington’s character can rock a pant suit like no other – but since she isn’t hiding a baby bump this season I thought it would be fun to see her dressed in more dresses and skirt suits.  She can’t say no to a structured bagand a great, but comfortable heel is a must traipsing around D.C., and this one comes in four colors!! The one staple that can’t be forgotten – a great draped jacked – with a stand out collar. 




Oversized Sweater//H&M

Free People Tank// Nordstrom

Drawstring Pants// F21


Although it’s rare – she does have some dressed down moments and when those happen there is no shortage of red wine and popcorn! I love the idea of her being super trendy with drawstring pants, just in case there is the need to run for her life! On top she’ll have her usual over sized sweater, but under that we play it a little sexier with a gray tank.  








Please tell me you’re just as excited for the Scandal premier tonight!! What would dress Olivia Pope in?




I’m also over at Karly’s blog today talking about Vegas Fashion!!

    I just got INSANELY excited about tonight!! I think I need some red wine. (I want to be typing in all caps, but I am stopping myself). But I really love this collection! Especially that wrap coat. I was just talking about this with my mom last night!:)

    YES! i forgot that today was thursday and when i realized it (literally 10mins ago), i shouted "YAY! scandal is on tonight!!!" and everyone laughed.

    i love that oversized sweater, though. that's my jam during colder temps – big cozy sweaters and leggings with boots πŸ˜€

    I am so excited for the Scandal premier tonight! I actually just watched the last episode of the past season to refresh my memory! I'm definitely going to check out The Limited's new collection! I am craving a chic belted coat for fall! And that over-sized sweater from H&M is everything! I could pretty much live in that!

    I think half the reason I'm obsessed with Scandal is because of the clothes!! She always looks so fab. Can't wait for tonight!

    I think we can both agree that Kerry Washington could wear a paper bag and look amazing but her clothes on the show are just amazing! You are so right because all she does is drink wine and eat popcorn! I can't wait to see this season where is isn't hiding behind a huge purse or table with all those strange camera angles! Great post!

    She always looks fabulous and I love that the show takes the time to make her look fabulous. Thanks for breaking down the looks.

    I'm a little embarrassed to say I've never seen this show. I've heard SO many good things about it, and now with this new collection it's just everywhere. Both of these looks are so cute!

    Love love love it all! Especially that grey bag. Swoon (but holy price tag). I still have not started watching Scandal! Mostly because I know it will suck me in and I will lose 3 weeks of my life catching up on the show!

    September 25, 2014 / 2:04 pm

    Love that sweater from H&M! I haven't watched that show though! Yes I know it's like admitting that I don't know who the Kardashians are. I just read your post on Karly's blog too. That green dress is hot and perfect for Vegas!! πŸ™‚

    Not that I need another show to get into, but you're like the 4th person in the same day to talk about how amazing this show is… And it just so happens I don't have any of my normal addictions on air right now, and given how cute these clothes are, I think I'm going to have to join the Scandal party!

    Love those looks! I may be one of the only people who hasn't seen Scandal yet. I plan on binge watching on Netflix after I get through Breaking Bad. And now I'm already hooked on a bunch of brand new Fall shows. Thank goodness for DVR – not enough hours in the day!!

    I just got an email with similar styles and I just love it! I am pretty short so the pencil skirts do not look enhance my figure – it stumpifies it.

    The coats are just so cute! I haven't seen Scandal maybe I'll check it out.
