Let’s face it, if somebody asked us what words pop into our heads when we hear, “female crisis manager who runs her own firm and specializes in political situations”, trendy and chic would not be the first or fifteenth words that come to mind. Olivia Pope, the star of the ABC hit show, “Scandal”, totally changes that. Pope never fails to rock a stellar outfit whether she’s in the office, out on the town, or hanging out in her awesome apartment.
1. Olivia never fails to completely kill it in the office. Not only does she walk into the room ready to get major work done, she looks great doing it in her tan peplum textured blazer.
