Kelly Ripa isn't afraid to repeat her outfits — and we love to see it.
The Live With Kelly and Ryan host, who happens to be one of the most stylish talk show stars ever, proved recently that there’s nothing wrong with being an outfit repeater. In a recent episode of Live With Kelly and Ryan, Kelly stunned the audience in a pale-pink houndstooth midi dress by Alessandra Rich.
Complete with puff sleeves and a statement Chelsea collar, the dress is hard to forget, which is why some were quick to point out that this wasn’t the first time Kelly rocked the unique design. In fact, fans first saw the special dress back in September when Kelly introduced guests Amanda Peet and Padma Lakshmi to the show.
Of course, fans were quick to compliment Kelly on her bold dress choice. "Love your DRESS!!," one fan wrote on Instagram. "Love the dress! She's very pretty," another noted.

Back in April of 2020, when Kelly and Ryan were filming remotely due to the coronavirus pandemic, Kelly revealed that she was diving into her 20-year-old daughter Lola's closet for new outfits to wear on Live. Whether or not she still borrows something from Lola from time to time is a mystery, but either way, she always looks great.
Kelly’s outfit repeat comes after she took a short break from Live (guest cohost Ali Wentworth filled in during Kelly's brief absence). Regardless of why she was off the show last week, all we have to say is that we’re glad she’s back, and we can’t wait to see what she’ll re-wear next! Perhaps the stunning blue velvet number from her night out with friends earlier this month? We sure hope so!
