When Olivia Rodrigo isn't spearheading pop-punk style or wearing disco bras on stage, the "Good 4 U" singer regularly dips into 1950s pin-up style. Like her former mentor Taylor Swift, Rodrigo loves a vibrant crimson lip and often wears little red cardigans to match. She's also been known to swap her platform Doc Martens for vintage-inspired Mary Janes—which she pairs with a little white sock, of course.
Though it's an somewhat unexpected styling choice for the pop star, it's one she reaches for time and again. Earlier this week, in fact, Rodrigo employed the same styling trick for a quick ride on a New York City subway. She turned an empty train car into her own personal photo shoot, showing off her delightfully retro ensemble styled by Chloe and Chenelle Delgadillo.
Olivia Rodrigo rides the MTA in a polka dot dress and Mary Janes.
The focal point of her outfit was a black polka dot dress from Dana Foley, which featured a V-neck and a demure midi hemline. From there, Rodrigo swiped on her favorite lip color and slipped into her go-to footwear combination—this time, in a pair of $525 patent leather heels from Stuart Weitzman.
She accessorized with a leopard shoulder bag for a playful print mixing moment.
Giving her sweet-as-apple-pie outfit a touch of edge, Rodrigo added a classic glam-rock touch: leopard print. She carried an animal print shoulder bag from Kurt Geiger (shop her exact style here), complete with a leather strap and the brand's signature eagle head logo.
Rodrigo carried the Bond Genuine Calf Hair Shoulder Bag from Kurt Geiger.
Though polka dots and leopard print has long been a beloved mixture among fashion girls, Rodrigo's outfit gave new life to a decades-old dress trend. The playful mix of pop punk and pop art felt like a fresh take on the classic pin-up look. Moral of the story: There's nothing you can't do with a good polka dot dress.
