As if Reese Witherspoon's IRL wardrobe [1] wasn't already chic enough, it turns out her closet is also stocked with tons of pieces from one of her most iconic movie gigs: Legally Blonde. While appearing on The Graham Norton Show, the actress revealed that she kept every single outfit she wore as Elle Woods [2] in Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde. "I got all my wardrobe — like, all of it," she revealed, before casually admitting that "all of it" just so happens to include all 77 — yes, 77 — pairs of Jimmy Choo shoes. "I had it written in my contract," she added. Smart move, Reese . . . smart move.
Reese went on to say that she didn't touch the glitzy heels or pink-tastic outfits until the film's 15th anniversary, when she took everything out of storage and tried it all on alongside her daughter, Ava Phillippe [3]. Kudos to her for exhibiting so much self-control for all those years! With a third Legally Blonde installment on the way [4], we can't wait to see what other fabulous outfits Elle has in store for us.
Ahead, take a trip down memory lane and relive some of her character's cutest outfits — yes, including the one that made her "look like the Fourth of July." (Warning: it may make you want a hot dog real bad.)
