It’s been 15 years since Elle Woods first entered our lives (seriously?!). The blonde sorority-girl-turned-law-school-grad won our hearts as she took on the corporate world in copious amounts of pink. Though we recommend leaving your scented resumes at home, we’re all for running a meeting in head-to-toe blush hues, like these five rosy picks for the office (thanks, Elle!).

The Wrap Dress
If you remember Elle’s big win in the courtroom, she wore a 70s-inspired pink wrap dress. The style was meant to empower women, so it always seems like a fitting choice for the office. And this one’s polished collar gives it a little extra professionalism.

The First Lady–Inspired Shift
Elle pays homage to the 1960s First Lady throughout the whole movie – and this wearable pink shift could have been plucked straight from the Oval Office (minus the pillbox hat). If Mrs. Kennedy could wear a similar look to help run the country, surely it works in the boardroom, too.

The Rose Gold Watch
Rose gold is a huge trend right now, and if you’re shy about sporting pink in a big way, this is the perfect nod. Chic and functional, the minimalist design complements any outfit with a touch of Elle Woods panache.

The Statement Shades
Elle favored oversized notice-me sunnies, so we know she would approve of this retro pair. The hint of pink adds a pop of color but won’t look out of place paired with your trusty trench coat.

The Chain-Strap Bag
Whether you’re matching one of these to your pink leather suit (like Elle) or wearing it with your LBD, this classic chain-strap bag one-ups your conservative everyday tote with a pop of personality.
