The 6 Best-Dressed Women on Television

I’m far from what you would call a “fashion maven” – an expert on all things beauty, make-up, and clothes -, so I won’t be applying for a job at Vogue or starting a YouTube channel dedicated to the topic any time soon.

But what I do know in regards to fashion is whether or not I find something to be visually appealing, which is how it goes for most people as well. I’ve never been to a runway show or met with designers and had an in-depth discussion on the meaning of ‘haute couture’.

Most of my knowledge comes from what I see on my television screen and what beauty bloggers tell me – though it takes some time to sort through the rubbish before getting to the genuinely good, smart stuff.

This past year (I’m counting 2012) has had a diverse array of female characters. In terms of wardrobe, the following is what stuck out to me the most…

Retro 80′s Glam Girl (Carrie Bradshaw in The Carrie Diaries)

I LOVE this show. I was so sad when it was not renew. It was so rare to see many strong successful women on TV shows that were friends and support each other. The women were fierce and decisive in what they want in their work and life.

Underrated TBH

Most of those clothes look terrible though.

So many belts!

Totally missing HBIC Jessica Pearson from Suits tbh.

Then again Gina Torres could wear a cardboard box and look flawless, because she's just that gorgeous.

I like Rachael's clothing on Suits better, but Jessica is a vastly better character :)
treebraids 18th-Feb-2013 09:55 am (UTC)
I used to like her cothes, but I'm starting to find them too tight and asymmetric.
michelleantonia 18th-Feb-2013 11:27 am (UTC)
I agree with the tight, but I love the asymmetrical stuff

Yesss my queens Joan and Olivia are on the list.
isntdaveone 18th-Feb-2013 05:01 am (UTC)
but Carrie wasn't a fashionista in the 80's according to the flashback from the movie.

Apparently the TCD is based on the books and not the SATC tv series.
slapband 18th-Feb-2013 06:59 am (UTC)
i've been marathoning the tv series and i'm still blown away by how fucking dumb her voice is in the movies. she's 50 years old, why is she talking like she's 13?
hannahgrace456 18th-Feb-2013 07:10 am (UTC)
Is she really 50? w/e, I love Carrie and SJP but at some points in the movie her voice was so annoying. At the beginning when she and Big visited the new important I almost shot someone it was so annoying.
xdecadentx 18th-Feb-2013 10:20 am (UTC)
She acts like she's 13 90% of the time.
jaimelannister 18th-Feb-2013 05:01 am (UTC)
I usually like the blouses on Parks and Rec

The Carrie Diaries always looks a mess when I see commercials for it. Maybe it's the awful wig.

For casual stuff, I really liked Britta's seasons 1 and 2 clothes on Community. Except for the weird vests of course.
judgmental 18th-Feb-2013 05:18 am (UTC)
Britta's pretty much my style tbh

minus the vests lol

IA! I don't know if it was season 1 or 2 when Britta was wearing a jean jacket that I thought looked cute. I also like that leather jacket she wore for a few episodes in season 2.
redleigh86 18th-Feb-2013 07:28 am (UTC)
I still want that large collar coat she had in season 1. I remember it best from that ep where Pierce is trying to hypnotize her to quit smoking (the debate episode, I think?), and she's got that awesome jacket. Loved it.

Queen Spencer from PLL.

Joan Watson always looks on point.
evett 18th-Feb-2013 05:07 am (UTC)
I know Olivia's thing is wearing white but I like when she wears color. That light lime colored jacket+dress looked great on her last week.

michelleantonia 18th-Feb-2013 11:27 am (UTC)
but omg when she wears white she's STUNNING


omfg that gif tho....... *screams*
elksa 18th-Feb-2013 05:07 am (UTC)
I actually agree with most of this list

(Allison from TW is the one I really don't get tho)
violet_crumble9 18th-Feb-2013 05:07 am (UTC)
I like how in the Carrie Diaries they show her wearing the same pieces over again. Like that blue (denim?) skirt with qt sweaters.

Also LOVE joan's and olivia's.
spencer in PLL.
Jamie king's character in hart of dixie wears cute stuff, too.
And zooey in new girl.
