PLL. Fashion. Love.



The Prettiest, Pretty Little Liars.

Although this wonderful drama/love story/suspense series is based for the "tween" era on ABC Family channel, it's sucked me in BIG time.

The plot is actually very intriguing and will leave you wanting more. That's what makes a good series right?
The acting is very good, each character is so unique and lovable (even the ones you hate) and the mystery story-line gets better each episode! 

The best part (in my opinion) is the fabulous fashion. And I promise you that...it is truly fabulous.
Each character's style has such a different flare to them that screams out their unique character personality.

I'll start with my favorite, 
Aria Montgomery - played by Lucy Hale:


In my mind, this girl can do no wrong in the fashion world. Designers, Laura Schuffman and Saba Salehi must be in hog heaven working with Lucy. Her personality, character, and cute petite frame can pull off the craziest  yet most classic outfits all in one episode.

She can wear a casual dress and 
spice it up with spikes on the shoulders 
to wear to practically any occasion:


Or make the outfit a little more risque with a deep plunge silky top and tribal printed mini-skirt:


And she always has a pop of color or "look at me" piece of clothing that makes the outfit... 


like these gold sequined shorts with a 
lemon blazer on top.
I would give anything to shop directly out of her wardrobe rack or personal closet as brilliant outfits (like the one below) come from her mind as well!




Here's some items to find if you love the look of Aria, just as much as me!

Her lovely bohemian style would most likely be found at stores such as Urban Outfitters, Forever 21, Anthropologie, The Buckle, and H&M.

On to my next favorite beauty, 
Hanna Marin - played by Ashley Benson.


She and her character are a little more girly 
than edgy Aria, but Hanna still has some fun 
grungy looks in her closet!
Her long stems and beautiful coloring + classic blonde bombshell hairstyle works with many different looks.

She can look very elegant in 
dresses such as these for red carpet events:


And tone it down a little in more 
casual dresses like these:


Her look is very universal and classic 
pieces work well on her.

My heart sank when I saw this top. I NEED it in my life.


The top can be worn sexy by showing off a black bra underneath and some skinny black trousers and heals, or toned down with some jean shorts or 
long jeans and some heals!
She pulls this off better than the model. That's when you know something really works well on you.


Leopard print is very popular on the PLL set and I'm VERY ok with it. When put together right on a top or adding it as an accent piece like Ashley's character wore in a flowy blouse, it adds a bit of sexiness to a classy shaped top.

Hanna's clothing would most likely be found at stores such as Forever 21, BCBG, BeBe, and H&M.

Next in line is Spencer Hastings - 
played by Troian Bellisario.


This girl could look stunning in a baggy hoodie and a pair of her boyfriend's sweats. Styling her would be a dream!
Her character's outfits reflect the look of a country club attendee mixed with some glam and flirty twists. Her character also LOVES cardigans...wonder why I love her so much?! ;)

The outfit below is a perfect representation of Spencer's character. She's modest with a flair of spontaneity.


Her character is meant to have an old money appeal to her. She's often in big flowy hats with flower print on one of her pieces of clothing and some kind of classic boot.



She's still got some sass to her for red carpet events (which her character does a lot as well!)...


She's one of the only actresses I can see in this combination. The tutu mixed with the tule fabric skirt fits her slender frame perfectly and mixes elegance with sexiness to the perfect tincture!


Spencer's style is timeless.
Spencer's look would most likely be found at stores such as Banana Republic, White House Black Market, and Anthropologie. Always classic, yet never dull!

And last, but not least, 
Emily Fields - played by Shay Mitchell.


When I think of Emily's character fashion style, I think, cute and comfy. She's often seen in
 baggy 3/4 length baseball tees with a pair of 
jeans and a funky pair of boots.


Bad picture quality, but you get the jist. Her athletic character and body fits this style to a T! She doesn't stand out as miss fashionista, but her beauty comes from the "not trying" look.


You will rarely see this look on Emily in PLL, but I think Shay likes to get dolled up for events and definitely rocks it when she does!

She looks especially gorgeous in the photo shoot below. You can see that's she's having a ball and
 looks very girly and is LOVING it all which is the 
best accessory you can have.



She definitely pulls of the jeans and tee look...
no doubt about it.
Emily's style would most likely be found at 
more casual stores such as, 
American Eagle/Hollister, The GAP, and Target. 

-------------------------------------------------

All of these looks keep getting 
better as the episodes progress. 
I'm sure I will be doing more posts on the 
show and trying to match certain items to 
affordable ones at local or online shops!

This topic to me can never get old. :)

Thanks for tuning in and I hope you enjoyed this rendition of hippie.chic.
Nighty night!
