Bridget Jones, But Make It Fashion: 5 Outfits for Every (Mildly Disastrous) Occasion

Hello my darlings,

I watched Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy at the cinema and let me tell you—it was one of the best movies I’ve seen in a long time. You cry, you laugh, and then you cry some more (while still laughing). The cast is perfect, the best of British humor, and honestly, I left feeling all warm and fuzzy, like I’d just been wrapped in a giant cashmere blanket. Which, frankly, is the energy I want to channel at all times.

So, in honor of the queen of chaotic charm herself, this post is dedicated to Bridget—if I were her stylist, this is exactly how I’d dress her. A little bit polished, a little bit quirky, but always ready for spontaneous declarations of love in the snow (or a last-minute dash to Tesco in the rain).

And if you haven’t yet run to the cinema to watch it, consider this your sign to do so immediately.

Outfit 1: The "Bridget Goes to Work (and Maybe to the Pub After)" Look

Perfect for when you need to appear competent and professional, but also know that at some point in the day, you might be running late, spilling coffee on yourself, or dramatically rushing out of the office in the rain.

• Bonpoint x Vanessa Seward Ginger Ale Cashmere Cardigan

• Gucci Mid-Rise Wide-Leg Jeans

• Jil Sander Burgundy Slingback Heels

• Jil Sander Gold Earrings

• COS Studio Bowling Bag – Leather Red

Outfit 2: The "Running Through London in the Rain" Look

Because you never know when you’ll need to dramatically chase after someone (or, more realistically, run for the bus).

The key here is practical but cute—a Bridget Jones essential. The Barbour jacket gives just the right amount of British countryside energy, while yellow boots add a pop of color (because you might as well have fun with it):

• Barbour Cropped Corduroy-Trimmed Cotton-Canvas Jacket

• Emilia Wickstead Albert Cropped Wool Cardigan

• JW Anderson Loafer Large Suede Shoulder Bag – Brown

• Closed Rain Hat

• Levi's 501 90’s Mid-Rise Straight-Leg Jeans

• Dear Frances Ero Boots – Yellow

Outfit 3: The "Bridget Goes to a Work Event" Look

Perfect for when you need to exude competent, professional energy—but also might spill Merlot down your front at some point in the evening.

• With Nothing Underneath The Classic Weave Shirt – Rose Pink

• COS Wool Jacquard Mini Skirt – Black

• Gucci 73 Mini Bucket Bag

• Vivaia Square Toe Water-Repellent Wool Knee-High Boots

Outfit 4: The "Bridget Goes to a Fancy Date" Look

For when you need to channel your inner rom-com leading lady, whether it’s for a dinner date gone slightly wrong or a dramatic entrance at a party you absolutely shouldn’t be attending (but will anyway).

• Alessandra Rich Polka-Dot Bow Detail Silk Midi Dress – Blue

• Amina Muaddi Henson 70 Metallic Leather Mules – Gold

• Anya Hindmarch Anya Brands Mini Tote – Ketchup Sequins

• COS Sculpted Cuff – Brown

Outfit 5: The "Bridget’s Pajama Glow-Up" Look

Because let’s be honest—Bridget’s famous flannel pajama set is long overdue for an upgrade. This is the 2025 version: just as cozy, but slightly more chic (perfect for late-night diary entries or emotionally eating an entire wheel of cheese).

• Piglet in Bed Berry Gingham Pajama Shirt

• Piglet in Bed Berry Gingham Pajama Trousers

• Olivia Von Halle Dolly Caramel Merino Wool Slippers

• Not Another Bill Cashmere Eye Mask

And there you have it—a wardrobe fit for Bridget in her most stylish, yet still entirely relatable, era. Whether she’s trying to keep warm, attempting to be a professional adult, or just surviving another day in the chaos of London, these outfits have her covered.

Now, go watch the movie, and if you end up crying and laughing into your popcorn, know that you are in very good company.
