For all our Pretty Little Liar fans, this post is definitely for you. It is clear to regular watchers that while PLL is known for danger, lying, and drama, is also has some killer fashion. Am I the only one thinking that nobody would get that dressed up every day for high school? I mean come on, who wears 5-inch heels to second period English? All joking aside, PLL definitely serves up a weekly dose of fashion for girls with all types of style.

For preppy girls, you probably lean more toward the look of Spencer Hastings. With her cardigans, penny loafers, oxford button downs, and riding boots, Spencer is definitely the clean-cut liar of the bunch. Her style is timeless, just like her optimistic, go-getter attitude. Spencer works hard and pushes herself, but never seems to make others feel below her intelligence level. Want to dress like Spencer Hastings? Here are our tips:
–Go for closed toe shoes. Spencer likes to find a great closed toe shoe, weather it be a loafer, a flat, a sneaker, or other style, she can always be found wearing a fun shoe. Try pairing your favorite shoes with some patterned tights or over the knee socks for a different look, or with a great pair of cropped pants in any color!
–Do a little something different with your hair. While spencer is known for her loose, flowing curls, she isnât afraid to rock an up-do. Whether itâs a tight side braid or a structured low bun, Spencer keeps her hair pulled back and looking professional. Donât have time to put together an up-do? Add a simple headband to your normal âdo and youâre good to go!
–Wear a leather strapped watch. Spencer is always on the go with school activities, and her watch is something we rarely see her without. Buy a classic watch with a smaller face and a nice, leather band to be on point with Spencer.

If you are a little edgier, but still like to play it safe sometimes, you might be a fan of Hanna Marin. Hanna likes bold colors but likes to stick to her girly side with sequins and rockinâ jewelry. Even though Hanna isnât into school, she does make sure she is dressed to kill! Still fighting her insecurities from former days, Hanna has a go-with-the-flow attitude and always has her friendsâ backs. If you want to look like Hanna, here are some ideas:
–Jewelry is key. Hanna is excellent at pairing a simple outfit with the right jewelry to come out looking like a million bucks. Have a simple t-shirt and colored jeans that need to be spruced up for a night out with the girls? Try adding a big, bold statement necklace and some hoop earrings and youâll be spot on.
–Go for bold colored dresses. Never one to shy away from showing off her legs, Hanna is always ready for a night out with a great dress. Go for simple dresses with a bright, attention grabbing color. If itâs chilly outside, add a simple dark colored cardigan or blazer to finish off your look.
–The higher the heels, the better. Even on an off day, Hanna is always found wearing the best shoes. If you arenât one for walking in heels all day, opt for a wedge, which provides more support for your foot if youâll be doing a lot of walking. Go for dark, solid colors that will match a lot of outfits in your closet; while her go-to is often closed toe, look for peep-toe heels or strappy wedges for summer months.

Are you sporty, laid back, and fun? If so, you probably like Emily Fieldsâ fashion sense. Emily is a go-getter like Spencer, but focuses her energy more on her swimming and other athletics over her academics. Emily has seen a lot of tragedy, but still manages to push on and help her friends through all the obstacles that are thrown in their way. Emilyâs style is easy, here is our advice on how you can look like her:
–Donât be afraid to wear combat boots. Emily Fields has been known to rock her combat boots in several different ways. Whether she wears jeans and a t-shirt or shorts and her leather jacket, she knows how to make combat boots work. With jeans, try leaving your boots loose and open, while with shorts, see how they look laced up and more structured; the two different looks will transition well from day to night.
–Invest in leather and denim jackets. Emily is frequently found wearing either her leather jacket or a cute denim jacket over a casual shirt. The leather jacket is perfect for days when you are feeling a little edgy, while the denim jacket is casual and relaxed while bringing a hint of structure and tying your outfit together. Either jacket can be worn during the day or night, so try looking for both and youâre right up Emilyâs alley!
–Rock those stripes! Stripes are one style Emily Fields has cornered the market on. Whether itâs a brightly colored tank top or a dark pullover sweater, a great deal of Emilyâs outfits consists of stripes. Check Old Navy for great prices on striped shirts for all the seasons when building your Emily Fields wardrobe.
