Married to Jonas Fashion: Danielle’s Orange Church Dress

First ID’d by BigBlondeHair

Dana — I’m embarrassed to even ask this, but it’s a light night of TV…and I may be watching Married to Jonas on E!. Don’t stop reading! Any chance you can ID the orange print short sleeve dress that Danielle wore to church? I promise I’ll never ask another Jonas question! – Carly

When I first started receiving emails about Married To Jonas fashion I was a little (lot) hesitant. I’m much more of a One Direction than Jonas Brothers kinda girl. (Plus, how Joe broke up with Taylor Swift is totally not okay in my book.)

Also, I was afraid I might transfer all my Vienna Girardi and Haylie Duff animosity onto her.

Still, credit where credit is due. The Deleasas are everything. Sister Dina is hillarious. Bucky the dad is awesome. And Dani married a Jonas Brother but still shops at Bebe.

This is about as real as it gets.

Taylor Swift’s dress in Safe & Sound

It’s Valentine’s Day (had you heard) and so I think it only appropriate to feature Taylor Swift, because there’s no one who believes in love more.

And though Hunger Games is hardly the picture of romance (nary a chocolate or flower to be seen)  her new song from the movie features this ethereal masterpiece that’s as beautiful as Swifty herself.

But like Valentine’s Days of yore, you’re bound to end up broken hearted if it’s this dress that you’ve set your sights, because this 1920′s vintage gown is unavailable.

Much like the more recent objects of Taylor’s affection.

I was wondering if you could get any information on this outfit Taylor Swift wore in London.  Thanks so much!

What with all her relationship woes and self deprecating humor, I fear that Taylor Swift just may end up alone in a house full of cats.

At the very least she’ll end up in a house full of dresses.

Some of which have cats on them.

Does that count?

p.s. Taylor Swift’s leather jacket is Rick Owens, I think. SJP has the same one.

I’m not one of those people who was ever able to take a test, having only read the Cliff’s Notes. So when Country Music Is Love asked me to guest post my best (and worst, yay!) looks from tonight’s Country Music Awards, I knew it meant settling in for three hours of songs (and people) I’ve never heard of.
Fortunately, my good friend Taylor Swift was there. Wearing an equally as familiar sweater to perform Ours for the first time ever.
Making me feel right at home.

Jillian Harris Style – Exclusive fashion interview with the worlds most fashionable bachelorette Jillian Harris

When “Ed Swiderski” showed up on my called ID last week, I literally shrieked. I felt like a Make-a-Wish kid, getting a call from my favorite celebrity. Minus the life threatening illness, natch.

You see, she still shows up as “Ed Swiderski” on caller ID, but the otherwise single Jillian Harris was an open book about her life, her fashion, and her future.

Jillian and I chatted about everything from watching her life unfold in the tabloids (some of it is actually true) to construction in open toed shoes. (Idefinitely a bad idea) to Ed’s video recaps of the Bachelor Pad. (Also a bad idea. I concede.)




Here’s a peek into the life, love and fashion of Jillian Harris, exclusive to The Possessionista.

Possessionista: Prior to being on the Jason Mesnick season of The Bachelor had you ever seen the show?

Jillian Harris: Yes! It’s one of the few shows I actually watch. I loved the Shayne Lamas season. She had amazing style and always looked great. I had bachelor parties and I remember watching that season and saying “I want to get engaged in a yellow dress on tv!” 

Possessionista: And you did! How did you go about getting dressed for the Bachelor? Did you wear your own clothes or did you go shopping?

Jillian Harris: Anyone who has ever gone on television will tell you that it’s very stressful. You start thinking about how you look, what you’re going to wear. I knew I couldn’t bring anything I already had. And to make things worse, I was working as a designer and really living paycheck to paycheck. But I’d just refinanced my house and I had a little cushion. I took all that money and bought dresses, makeup, shoes. My only regret is that I wish I’d learned a little more about makeup. Especially powder. I was pretty shiny. 


Possessionista: And when you were the Bachelorette? How was it different working with a stylist? 

Jillian Harris: I love Cary Fetman and we worked great together. We have very different styles. He dresses women for men. I dress myself for women. We collaborated together and started incorporating my pieces into the wardrobe and it worked. When we got to Canada it was freezing, so we did another shop that was really reflective of my personal style. And everything you saw in Europe was all Cary. And those were some of my favorite items of the whole season. I still wear the Chloe Dress. (pictured left)


Possessionista: What are some of your favorite fashion moments from The Bachelorette?


Jillian Harris: 
I love the 
Chloe Dress 
on the date with Reid.
And the denim dress from Aritzia that I wore on Kiptyn’s hometown date. Ed’s favorite look was the yellow BCBG dress I wore to the rose ceremony where he came back. Ali Fedotowsky wore the same dress for the first episode of Jake’s season.

Possessionista: How has your style changed since your Bachelorette days?



Jillian Harris: I have a new appreciation for “good” clothes. I’m willing to spend a little more on pieces, but I spend smarter. I’m also really into shoes. I think I dress a little more edgy. I still love really feminine pieces, but I like to pair them with something a little riskier like a frilly dress with Frye boots. 

Possessionista: Have you always loved clothes?

Jillian Harris: I have always loved clothes and shopping. My mom always took great pride in dressing us, and as a kid my dad and I would drive into town and go back-to-school shopping, and I always picked out the craziest stuff. I think my friends from high school would say I had good clothes. I remember when I first moved out of my parents house, I was waitressing and I was making, like, $6.00 an hour, but I bought this $200 Dolce and Gabbana tee shirt just because I loved it.  I was insane. I had so much clothes sometimes things would hang in my closet with tags for 6 months. 

Possessionista: How would you describe your style?

Jillian Harris: It’s like my personality. High brow and low brow. Like a polished redneck.

Possessionista: Speaking of polished rednecks. What do you think of the Bachelor Pad? What would you wear if you were on that show?

Jillian Harris: (laughing) um, nothing but high heels? No, seriously, I’d probably wear a lot of dresses. I think it would be important to dress feminine,  so the guys would think you were hot but also trustworthy.

Possessionista: Promise me you’ll never go on that show. Then tell me about your wardrobe for Extreme Makeover. Is there a stylist.

Dress: Aritzia, earrings: F21
Jillian Harris: I promise. No, there’s no stylist, we all wear our own clothes. In the beginning I begged them to let me wear open toed shoes. That lasted one episode and then I tripped. Now I wear the same Frye boots every time. But I try to amp up the style with the girliest dresses.  I think it’s important to show that you can look pretty and still work hard. But I think as it gets cooler, I’ll probably start bringing in some more jeans, too.

Possessionista: And what do you wear when you’re not on camera?

Jillian Harris: I try to stay away from sweatpants. I’m living out of a suitcase these days, so I literally have no sweatpants. I’m in jeans and hoodies most of the time. But if I’m going out, I’m almost always in dresses and I like to mix it up wtih fun shoes.

Possessionista: Where do you love to shop? What are your favorite things to buy?

Jillian Harris: Shoes are my thing. I love Nordstrom because they have everything. I never go in looking for shoes, though. They have to surprise me. And if I find four pairs, I’ll buy them all because I know a drought is coming. I love Aritzia too. And for accessories, I shop at Forever21 and Target. I don’t spend a lot on my jewelry. I love Stella & Dot too. And for clothes I really like the Michael by Michael Kors line. It’s really great stuff and a great price point.

Possessionista: What are you dying for right now?

Jillian Harris: One day I will own a pair of Louboutins. I just have to find the right pair. Oh, and those Tory Burch clog boots.

Possessionista: Who is your favorite celebrity fashion icon?

Jillian Harris: Taylor Swift. I love all her girly dresses and her boot collection.

Possessionista: Okay, favorite jeans?

Jillian Harris: I have this old school pair of 7 for all Mankind that they dont make anymore, and I have to keep getting them patched. And I love the Gap boyfriend cutoffs.

Possessionista: Favorite shoes?

Jillian Harris: I have a pair of Prada sandals that a client gave me at the end of a project. They started my shoe obsession.

Possessionista: What’s one tip you could give to all the fashionistas who emulate your style?

Jillian Harris: Get everything tailored. Even if I buy a $20 dress at Forever21 I take it to the tailor. There’s always something you can do to make it fit better. Shorten the hem or the sleeves. Take it in in the waist. We all have different bodies, so it doesn’t seem possible that everyone can fit into a small, medium or large. It’s worth the few dollars, and can make a cheap item look much more expensive. And no matter what you wear, own it. Dress like you’re telling people you don’t care what they think.

Possessionista: What shows do you watch?

Jillian Harris: I actually only watch The Bachelor and Extreme Makeover. And, no, ABC didn’t tell me to say that.
