Every other week, I break down the best of
TV fashion, featuring my favorite looks from the last two weeks. This week, I was inspired by
Pretty Little Liars and
The Newsroom. Read on to check out the outfits!
I’m a bit of a
Pretty Little Liars fangirl, so I squealed a little bit when CF readers requested even more PLL recaps. (See
here and
here
to get your fill of season four fashion!) In the past, I’ve been
focusing on Hanna’s fashion, but Aria really wowed this episode. She
looked flawless, even when she was weeping uncontrollably… which just
isn’t fair. When I cry, it’s hideous. But no matter how hard Aria is
crying, she still looks like she stepped out of a fashion magazine.
Aria‘s
style is edgy and trendy. She loves wearing dresses and mixing bright
colors with black pieces, as well as wearing contrasting patterns. (Be
sure to check out our post on
Aria’s style for a more in-depth look at her fashion sense.)
To recreate
Aria’s cute, flirty outfit, start with a
black embellished t-shirt; Aria’s had colorful gems that added a playful element to the outfit. Next, add a bright
blue skater skirt
and slip on a pair of sneakers, which Aria is well-known for pairing
with most of her outfits. For accessories, add a pair of simple dangly
earrings and a detailed bracelet or two. Don’t forget a word necklace —
Aria’s spelled her name, but this “Love” necklace is an adorable
alternative.
Aria’s hair and makeup always ties her outfits
together, so a few coats of a pinky-mauve lipgloss and a bright
watermelon pink nail polish will help complete your Aria-inspired look.
To finish, curl your hair in soft waves with the curls facing away from
your face.
HBO’s hit show
The Newsroom is a political drama about a news anchor and his team. It was created by Aaron Sorkin, who also worked on
The West Wing and
The Social Network.
The show is fascinating, inspiring, and provides a lot of information
on current events. The show’s cast is fantastic, including some adorable
nerdy guys, strong women, and cute, funny love interests. I think it’s
one of the best shows on television, which is saying something, because I
watch a
lot of TV.
Mackenzie is the producer of
the news show and was formerly romantically involved with Will, the main
news anchor. She’s passionate about journalism and can be incredibly
stubborn. She’s also easily flustered and a lot of fun to watch. Even
though she’s (lovably) awkward, she always looks very professional and
put-together in the wardrobe department.
I’m in an internship fashion slump — lately I’ve been wearing the same boring business attire every day. So when I saw
Mackenzie’s professional, elegant look, I was immediately inspired to switch it up.
To recreate her ensemble, start with a
cream button-up blouse and a dark grey or black
pencil skirt.
Add a pair of low black heels — a fashion staple of Mackenzie’s. Sling a
simple black briefcase-like purse over your shoulder and slip on a
sophisticated watch and gold bracelet. Add an unexpected pop of color
with a brightly-colored pair of studs to complete the outfit.
As
far as hair and makeup go, put on some natural beige lipgloss, then blow
out your hair, focusing on creating volume by drying your hair upside
down and using a volumizing product like Aussie
Aussome Volume Styling Mousse or
TIGI Catwalk Root Boost.
