While everyone's obsessed with Betty and Veronica on "Riverdale," Cheryl Blossom stole the show for me. From her masterful shade-throwing to her style, Cheryl shows how to stay fierce no matter the situation.
With season two starting on October 11 — that's this week! — I know there'll be even more fabulous looks from "Riverdale's" queen bee. Let's revisit Cheryl's fiercest fashion looks so far, because who better than the Red Widow to inspire your fall style?
Cheryl delivered old school ~drama~ at the dance in this red gown with a sweetheart neckline. Just cause it's fall doesn't mean you can bring in a little color!
Even when she was being arrested for allegedly killing her brother, she still looked fierce in her ruby red blouse.
Cheryl's accessories were on point too. She wore a ton of spooky chic spider brooches in the first season.
If she had a collection of real spiders, I wouldn't be surprised.
Cheryl also showed that you don't have to be matchy-matchy during the fall. Like when she wore a plaid skirt and red shirt while burning the evidence of Jason's and the football team's slut shaming with Betty.
OH LOOK THE SPIDER BROOCH IS BACK. But seriously though, I definitely need to try the burgundy leather jacket and brooch combo.
Cheryl wouldn't be caught dead in pajamas. Even when she was chilling around the house she was wearing a damn gown.
YES CANDLESTICKS COUNT AS AN ACCESSORY.
When you're Cheryl Blossom, regular lighting won't do.
Not sure if her bejeweled collar or her shade throwing left a stronger impression on me.
You thought this was just a simple shirt? Zoom out and OH IT'S A DRESS WITH A SKINNY BELT.
She left everyone SHOOK when she wore the white outfit to Jason's wake.
The moment when you realize that your parents are conniving, but also when the audience witnesses your max slay in a green embroidered dress.
Yes, it's awkward when your parents use your brother's wake as a way to find murder suspects, but at least you looked fierce when you realized it.
When Cheryl and Veronica had the most uncomfortable sleepover ever, Cheryl was winning with that V-neck dress.
Anyone notice how her belt suddenly became a brooch? Real smooth Cheryl.
Who in the world wears a VELVET ROBE and FUZZY HEELS to a sleepover? Cheryl Blossom that's who.
When you're trying to solve a murder mystery, it's time to bring out the wrap crop top.
Her whole family looked like they'd stepped straight out of a '90s Ralph Lauren catalogue. I've never wanted to own a blazer more than this slo-mo scene.
ALSO matching gloves? This look is next level.
But seriously — her fall jacket game is STRONG. This ribbed leather jacket looks looks ~nice~
Cheryl wouldn't be complete without her spider pin.
When she rolled up to Pop's in a sheer black floral top and red shorts for like five minutes.
She went for a sweeter look when trying to win over Betty's sister Polly at the baby shower.
Crashing a baby shower calls for bringing out the bling too with this statement necklace.
She really has worn endless plaid skirts. This one featured her signature red, of course.
Stop scrolling and TAKE A MOMENT TO APPRECIATE THIS RED CAPE.
My goodness. Even Archie is thinking, "Hot damn. Where can I get outerwear like this?" Sorry Archie, Cheryl saw it first.
Of course, the maple tapping ceremony was a perfect spider brooch opportunity too.
If the coat wasn't dramatic enough, Cheryl DIDN'T EVEN WEAR PANTS WHILE IT WAS SNOWING.
Divas don't get cold.
Cheryl doesn't go casual to house parties, either. Dig this fuzzy white jacket she wore when crashing Jughead's birthday.
It's still a mystery to me how she didn't get this dirty, but whatever.
While I'd look like a human pillow in a coat this much fluff, Cheryl made it work.
I spy another spider brooch!
She also wore the fuzzy jacket in black, because why not? Also, this fancy bejeweled choker was BALLER.
When she was snooping around her mom's jewelry with Polly, this blue shawl stole the show for me.
This girl's loungewear game is insane.
Although her parents sedated Polly, Cheryl's dress for the dance was still pretty amazing.
I'm in LOVE with the back of this gown.
When Polly's parents woke the Blossoms' up in the middle of the night, Cheryl was STILL camera ready.
I really don't think Cheryl's ever experienced bedhead. EVER.
That awkward moment when you have to confront your dad about murdering your brother, but also look really fierce in your leather skirt.
She threw on a fascinator for her father's funeral, but kept her signature red lip.
Oh look! Another wrap crop top.
And another loungewear look that left me confused, and but also made me wish I owned more dramatic pajamas.
When she torched her whole house and showed up in this all-white ensemble.
Totally chill.
Cheryl Blossom really is a gift from the style gods. I can't wait to see what other looks season two will bring!
Check out the next season of Riverdale on October 11th on The CW!
