Karoline Leavitt Can Elevate Her Style with a Single Simple Change

We can’t figure out why Karoline Leavitt consistently wears the most drab colors. The young press secretary frequently steps out in tones that wash her out and simultaneously age her. On April 1, 2025, she arrived for the press briefing at the White House to discuss the “Liberation Day” tariffs proposed by President Donald Trump, and her outfit was as bland as a bowl of oatmeal. She wore a beige pantsuit with a simple, white shirt and literally no other embellishments. Her color choices are simply too light for her. 

Unfortunately, that theme continued for the following week. On April 8, 2024, she wore an off-white blazer and black slacks. On April 11, 2025, she wore a grey boucle sweater with black buttons. On April 15, she wore a black shift dress. Not only are the cuts and clothing styles aging, but the colors are too muted. Leavitt has rich, golden blonde hair and could easily get away with bolder tones. On her Instagram page, it’s clear that she likes wearing bright colors when off-duty; as numerous photographs show her in reds, blues, lime greens, and pinks. These lively tones look lovely on her, and we hope to see her incorporating more of her personality at work. Our best guess is that she’s still new to the job of being the press secretary, and might want to get acclimated before she brings more dazzle to the podium.
