Thanks to a team of wardrobe wizards, Scandal is now synonymous with style. Olivia’s pantsuits and trench coats have sparked a movement in women’s work wear, resulting in the creation of the ultra popular Scandal Collection at The Limited.

While we love Olivia’s big white coats and cozy sweaters, they’re not exactly suitable for spring. So we’ve searched the archives and found eight gorgeous styles to make your own this season.

1) Unique Necklines

Break away from the typical v-neck and scoop cuts and try something new. Olivia rocked this ivory tank with a black cowl collar in season three. The beauty of a piece like this is it’s versatility; it’s work-ready with a pencil skirt or slacks and wonderful for the weekend when paired with jeans.

 

2) Bright + Bold Dresses

Mellie is a fearless fashionista, so it’s no wonder that the First Lady is almost always caught wearing bold colors. Ditch your black and gray standbys and opt for some brighter hues.

 

3) Billowing Blouses

There’s nothing basic about Abby’s subtle and sheer polka dot blouse. Shake up your button-downs by adding some feminine patterns to the mix.

 

4) Beach-Ready Boho

Whether you’re relaxing poolside in Pittsburgh or with the waves at your feet in Florida, Olivia’s geometric print dress is perfect for standing in the sun.

 

5) Flattering Fits

Shapeless shirts are strictly winter-only items. Shop for pieces that are tailored to flatter your figure, rather than hide it. This black and white peplum top is straight from The Limited’s Scandal Collection!

 

6) Pretty In Plaid

When she’s not sporting her favorite leather jacket, Quinn keeps it cool in plaid patterned tops. Pair with your favorite jeans to make an easy outfit for every company picnic or family get-together that comes your way. Tip: choose cotton blends over flannel fabrics to avoid overheating.

 

7) Empowered Elegance

Don’t let your love of tank tops and short shorts keep you from slipping into something classy every once and a while. After a long week of keeping things handled, treat yourself to dinner and dessert at a fancy restaurant as an excuse to wear a super chic dress á la Abby.

 

8) Soft + Silky

Before things heat up faster than an Olivia/Jake scene, wear those silk blouses hiding in the back of your closet. Nothing says spring like a beautifully delicate top and you’ll avoid those treacherous sweat stains that come along with summer.
