Style Icon: Aurora Teagarden — the fashion opinion

Trust TFO to choose a fictional character as a style icon, but believe me when I say, that this lady has got it going on. She is classy, preppy, and on trend, and if I could be best friends with a TV character, it would be Ms. Teagarden.

Played by Candace Cameron Bure (of Full House fame), the Aurora Teagarden mystery movies are broadcast on the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel. She may be a creation of Charlaine Harris’ series of much-loved crime novels, but we can’t deny that she’s got style.

If you’d like to incorporate the crafty detective’s regular style and fashion into your daily wardrobe, then welcome to our quick guide to dressing like Aurora Teagarden!

Looking for something to wear on regular office days?

Take a leaf out of Aurora’s book, by pairing a blue blazer and green skirt combination like a queen. The colors absolutely complement each other – both are cool and pleasing to the eyes. For the inner shirt, you can wear something floral or patterned to add a little spark of design into an otherwise simple outfit. Finish it off with your favorite pair of platform heels, and voila!

Featuring a comfortably warm long-sleeved coat and a pair of black pants, this outfit is perfect for a cool and breezy autumn morning. The coat is thick enough to allow you to feel warm, but it’s also not so thick that you’ll feel stuck.

The choice of pants depends on what you find most comfortable but we personally prefer softer fabrics to allow you more freedom of movement. Add a pair of high-heeled ankle boots and you’re good to go.

After all, it doesn’t really matter if it’s cold outside–nothing can ever stop you from channeling your inner Aurora!.

If you’re more of a shy and conservative kind of girl, then this style will look absolutely perfect on you. The cardigan covers any potentially revealing areas while the pants shows not an inch of skin. The colors are also subdued, making sure that the outfit doesn’t stand out too much when you’re out in the crowd.

Honestly, if you’re going for a ‘shy bookworm’ look, we couldn’t recommend this ensemble enough!

Just because you want to be stylish doesn’t mean you have to go all out! Sometimes, simplicity is key to looking elegant and well-dress. Take this outfit, for example. Aurora’s only wearing a buttoned down mock turtleneck knit shirt, but doesn’t she look stunning anyway?

This shirt would be perfect with either a pair of skinny jeans and stilettoes or a pencil skirt and heels. If this outfit is much too simple for you, you can also add some accessories like earrings.

Going on a first date soon? A great outfit idea is Aurora’s yellow mustard dress. It’s not too simple, but it’s not flashy either – perfect if you want a good first impression. If you want to make it less simple, you can even accessorize it with a bejeweled necklace and a pair of earrings. For the shoes, just add in a pair of strappy low-heeled wedges and you’re good to go!
