Meredith Blake might have been a villain in 'The Parent Trap,' but her style is downright heavenly.
It's no secret that everyone loves a villain—we quote Regina George way more than Cady Heron, and Blair Waldorf is simply more iconic than her bubbly blonde counterpart Serena van der Woodsen. During the renaissance of '90s and 2000s pop culture nostalgia, female antagonists are getting a much-needed makeover in the eyes of the public, including one such Meredith Blake from the beloved Lindsay Lohan movie The Parent Trap.
Abercrombie and Fitch Keyhole Slip Maxi Dress
Perfect for date nights with your vineyard-owning lover, this little black dress features a low back, white contrast binding, and a keyhole neckline.
Throughout the movie, Meredith Blake is portrayed as an ice-cold, gold-digging floozy—an obstacle keeping the twins' parents apart when they were clearly destined for each other. Blake shows little interest in genuinely befriending Lohan's tween character—an attitude that Vogue dubs as "relatable." As kids watching the movie, we're meant to hate her, but as adults, who wouldn't want to romance a handsome older vineyard owner and lounge poolside at his Napa Valley estate?
Mejuri Bold Pearl Ear Jacket Studs
Pearls are the ultimate old-money accessory, and these studs have a modern twist with a removable wraparound jacket post.
Another aspirational part of Meredith's character is her impeccable style. When we first meet her, she's dripping in gold jewelry, sipping iced tea out of her cherry-painted pout while a sun hat shades her piercing gaze. Her look screams old money: expertly coiffed hair, tailored blazers and dresses, and lots of black and white. This East Coast-inspired preppy aesthetic has been all over TikTok, so it's no wonder why Meredith Blake-inspired outfits have risen in popularity this summer.
