If Olivia Pope was a SAHM, What would she wear?

Watching Scandal and thinking of how I used to dress like Olivia (albeit slightly plumper) when I was working, tailored separates, fabulous coats and bags.

I need to get out of this yoga pants/joggers/hoody rut I've got myself into and claw back a bit of style.

Anyone with outfit ideas out there? All help gratefully received.

An ill fitting next hoody and her other half's track pants ... guess not

JeanetteDanielsBenziger · 01/01/2015 23:28

Nope, That's what I'm wearing right now though :)

That's a tough one. She's vary pared down, clean lines but feminine tailoring, luxe fabric and rarely prints. Her colours are neutral, ivory, charcoal, tan, sometimes a blush pink or khaki..... I don't think she would wear jeans or jeggings, maybe a tailored trouser with good knitwear or a knee length skirt with good leather boots.....? She's definitely more Massimo Dutti than boden.....

Oope, posted too quickly. I think I'll start floating about in silk pjs.

JeanetteDanielsBenziger · 02/01/2015 00:07

I could get on board with those silky pj bottoms :)

You're right butterflies, It's a hard look to translate into everyday wear.
