13 Fashion Lessons Every Woman Can Learn From Legally Blonde's Elle Woods

It helps Elle from being tricked by a sneaky saleswoman at the beginning of the movie.

"It's impossible to use a half-loop stitching on low-viscosity rayon. It would snag the fabric. And you didn't just get it in — I saw it in the June Vogue a year ago. So if you're trying to sell it to me for full price, you've picked the wrong girl."

BOOM — owned.

For example: Margot offers Elle her lucky scrunchy to pass the LSATs. Like, how nice is that?!

To each their own, y'know? Classic or statement making — it just depends on your style! These two opposites end up as BFFs.

Solange Knowles may have shown us this color is completely wearable, but pink truly is a classic.

Elle may be after a superserious job, but that doesn't stop her from going all out when it comes to her outfits. Instead, she finds the happy medium between fashionable and work-appropriate, adding ties to her menswear-inspired looks and rocking classic wrapdresses in bright pink.

Wearing a bunny costume to a noncostume party could potentially be extremely embarrassing, but Elle continues to show confidence — and then goes laptop shopping in it! Her pink outfits and floral-embellished accessories refuse to blend in with the crowd, and that turns out to be a very good thing!
