Chic Shift Dress

Who says Olivia Pope will have to get rid of those chic shift dresses? A perfectly ruched style will make her a fab mom-on-the-move.

The Prim & Proper Blouse

Polished and pulled together is Pope's fashion mantra (at least we like to think so), and this pretty pregnancy-friendly top would fit perfectly into her wardrobe.

The Camel Coat

Fret not fashionista's! Olivia will never loose her cool, or her camel coat in this roomy, mommy-to-be version of that chic topper.

The Pointed Flat

The pointed pump has been her wardrobe staple, but with a baby on board she'll have to cut down that sleek heel to a fab flat.

Ms. Pope is all about structure, and that goes for her sharply shaped shift dresses as well.

Drape Cardigan

Liv loves all things drapey, so the open-front cardigans she currently owns can seamlessly transition into her maternity style.

The "It" Bag

Pope has a lot of baggage, but this baby bag is worth adding to her collection of "it" bags.

Top Coat

A fab coat is top priority in Pope's wardrobe and this winter white shearling will fair well with the other fab styles.

While Olivia's curled up on her couch (sans wine, of course), this is the perfect piece for warm and fuzzy nights.

The Boot

If she's cozying up in a oversized cardi, she'll need a pair of equally comfy boots to complete the look.

The White Track Jacket

A baby on board won't stop Pope from wearing the pristine shade of white she adores. Here's a hoodie with wiggle room while on the run.
