1. The A.O.C. Red Pucker
The gorgeous red lip Alexandria showcased the night of her primary win was a hit! So much so that when female entrepreneurs and wild feminists alike took to social media to inquire about it, Alexandria shared the deets. She was smirkin’ and smilin’ in Stila “Stay All Day” liquid in BESO. The perfect deep-red shade has now become a staple in Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s style. This perfect red compliments all skin tones, and looks great dressed up or down. Love it? So do like 2,000 other Sephora fans based on the five-star reviews (We bought ours and swooned in silence).

When it comes to clap-backs, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is basically undefeated. Like when she was singled out by the GOP amongst over 200 members who voted for Nancy Pelosi. She took to Twitter and wrote, “Don’t hate me cause you ain’t me, fellas”. Like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s style, her clap-back was just so good, we added her quoted graphic tee to our Power Women campaign. Now, you can add some unapologetic sass to your wardrobe while channeling your inner AOC style.

Because when it comes to AOC she’s fearless and reps a zero fucks given policy where speaking out is concerned. At 29, she knows exactly who she is, and who she’s up against and she speaks for what’s right despite the scrutiny. This middle fingers up necklace are for all of the women of color who take this stand every day! We’re with you girl!
4. Ladies in Office T-Shirt
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s style is all the rage. As the youngest female Congresswoman, she’s paving the way for young women following her footsteps. We had to put her on a tee showing love to not only Cortez, but the rest of the women holding it down in politics like Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, and of course the notorious R.B.G. (Ruth Bader Ginsburg). This is the perfect t-shirt to wear to represent how powerful women really are. Support ya ladies in office with this cool tee, here.
5. The Gold Hoops
Gold hoops are to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s style as The booty is to J-Lo. As Cortez stated in her tweet, “Lip+hoops were inspired by Sonia Sotomayor, who was advised to wear neutral-colored nail polish to her confirmation hearings to avoid scrutiny. She kept her red,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted about the Supreme Court Justice, who is also of Puerto Rican descent, in reference to her choice to express herself in her own way and not succumb to outdated standards.
She trailed that with what has come to be a fan-favorited quote by the A.O.C. “Next time someone tells Bronx girls to take off their hoops, they can just say they’re dressing like a Congresswoman.” As a woman of color, who hates the standardized “box”, I will rock my red lipstick and hoop earrings every day to work my bed/office.. even if pajamas are my work uniform!
