Olivia Pope Black White Check Trench Coat on Scandal Is From the Limited

There's something positively thrilling about being able to buy something you've seen one of your favorite celebrities or TV characters wearing and with the Limited's Scandal-inspired collection, it's double the pleasure (Kerry Washington

and

Olivia Pope have worn what you're wearing!).

The trench coat is a true closet classic, but there's always room for some updating or a touch of personality to make it your own. Liv did just that by skipping traditional camel and doing black-and-white checks, a color combo that makes the piece feel less preppy and more fashion-forward (this is the one for you if the standard trench has never quite gelled in your wardrobe). Plus, can you imagine her wearing a lighter color while striding around with that purposeful look and giving off the same powerful vibe? I can't.

The most exciting part is that it's another piece from the Limited's collection and is available here for $248.
