As Jenna Bush Hager enters her fifth year as a full-time anchor, she continues to deliver her thoughts on today’s news. But while she does so, she simultaneously manages to pull off outfits that seem surprising for daytime television.
During a February taping of Today With Hoda and Jenna, the morning show host sat alongside Hoda Kotb in an outfit no one expected her to wear. Donning a black Free People bodysuit, the form-fitting apparel featured one key element in the design. The piece not only came off the shoulders, but it was covered by matching colored tulle that ran along the neckline. Whether Jenna intended it or not, the ruffled material seemed to be a nod to 1980s fashion.
Because the top of the ensemble was so daring, it only made sense for the Sisters First author to add pizazz to other elements of her look as well.
To complement the whimsical bodysuit, Jenna wore it with a pair of leather flared pants. For shoes, she chose pointed kitten heels that had bejeweled lacing up the ankle and a matching bow by the toe. As for hair and makeup, the TV personality blew her blonde hair into her signature blowout and put on rosy makeup.
When Today‘s social team uploaded a video clip of her in the outfit to Instagram, fans had a lot of thoughts about it. One particular motif stood out in the comments, and it was how much they loved seeing her unique onscreen attire.
“Love Jenna’s shoes!! The outfit is great too! 👍,” one person wrote. “Loved Jenna’s look [and] those shoes! 🖤,” a different follower replied. “Jenna looked amazing! 🖤🖤,” another user added.
If there’s anyone who can pull off something this bold on the air, it would be her. And if her love of couture says anything, folks probably won’t have to wait before she stuns them with another impeccable look.
