As the news of Bridget Jones Baby makes headlines, it hit us. Is Bridget Jones our DGAF style icon? Maybe she often needed to get her look together, but there are just so many important style precedents in the original Bridget Jones’s Diary that they all needed to be documented. She gives the least screws, and she’s a true fashion chameleon. So here are the 12 best life and style lessons Bridget ever gave us.

1. Whenever someone invites you to a holiday party that doesn’t offer the opportunity to do karaoke in an empty room in penguin pajamas, you really have to assess how little being in the company of other people means.

You are that entertaining.

You are that entertaining.

2. If you’re going to wear your Christmas outfit your mother picked out for you, the best way to go is to have a dismal expression to go with it so that no one thinks you really want to look like that.

At least this isn't awkward.

3. At-home hair removal is no big deal.

DIY like a champ.

4. Having a healthy body image fueled by fashion magazines is a must.

Just being realistic and healthy and all.

Just being realistic and healthy is all.

5. A bunny tuxedo is never not appropriate.

Your family will love it.

6. If your head scarf falls off and the wind gives you a blowout, just go with it.

Just hold your head high and keep it moving.

Hold your head high and keep it moving.

7. Don’t take style advice from creepy dudes.

No thanks.

8. Dress for the job you want.

Office dress code compliant.

9. Granny panties are real charmers.

Male repellant armor.

10. Christmas accessories can make you appear much more fun than you are.

Mark Darcy and Mark Darcy's tie.

11. If you wear a coat over your pajamas, it’s like you’re always ready to get off the couch.

Straight chillin.

12. Snowy weather is pants optional.
