She started out as a sassy high schooler, styled in jean shorts, crocheted and floral off-the-shoulder tops and primary-colored blazers that signaled the transition from \u201880s to \u201890. Later outfits suggested a sexy vamp in satin dresses and tousled hair. By series\u2019 end, Kelly Taylor had been taken over by sleek sophistication, with couture-looking cocktail frocks and fitted, cleavage-hinting (or baring in some cases) tops as she morphed into a trendy young career woman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any number of young women would attest that their own fashion choices came of age watching <strong>Kelly Taylor<\/strong> and her never-ending closet of looks. Hell, some women can tell the passage of time just by looking back to the length of Kelly\u2019s coifs over the years (long and slightly feathered\/teased in high school and shorter, sleeker and with more body in post-college\/early-adulthood).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Jennie-Garth.jpeg\" alt=\"Jennie Garth\" class=\"wp-image-62157\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Jennie-Garth.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Jennie-Garth-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Kelly had it all\u2014money, good looks and style, always catching the likes of Dylan, Brandon or both with a sultry pout of her puss or a wide, girl-next-door grin.
