Scandalous


If you don't know, I am an avid watcher of the best drama on Television to - date, SCANDAL. In lieu of the Scandal hiatus that we as Gladiators have been forced to take by Shondaland I decided to do a post highlighting the style and (dis)grace of our favorite fixer Ms. Olivia Pope (OP)! The quick speaking, passionate, gorgeous workaholic is amazing at delivering results to her array of customers, but fixing her own personal life is another story!

Check out the Ali Fashion Sense spin on channeling your inner OP.

SCANDALOUS
I know the fabrics shown below aren't Spring/Summer friendly but just put on your creative caps for just a minute. Travel with me to Olivia Pope & Associates and you could definitely see Olivia show up to fight injustice in an ensemble as such! She gravitates to very sleek silhouettes with simple lines.

UNWINDING WITH SCANDAL
After fighting injustice around the beltway Olivia comes home to unwind with a glass of wine, some popcorn, and a late night conversation with her boo, Fitz! While unwinding OP never drops the ball on what she looks like. Even in her lounge - wear she still is killing it!


Unwinding with Liv



If you are out shopping for items that Liv would have in her closet, you should look for sheaths, capes, structured blazers, trousers, cashmere tops, gloves, long lean gowns, chunky knit sweaters, soft nail polish colors etc., that will help compliment your inner  Olivia Pope! If you are still having Scandal withdraws check out Seasons 1 and 2 on Netflix or Hulu Plus. And to all my real dedicated Scandal fans... this is for you!!!




Keep strong my friends. Fall will be here before you know it. Until then...be the "Gladiators in a Suit" that you have been charged to be! *Happy Thursday Luvs*
