A lawyer who says she's often underestimated for the hot pink suits she wears to work has liked herself to the 'real life Elle Woods' from the 2001 comedy movie Legally Blonde. Immigration attorney Kathleen Martinez began practising law back in 2017, but decided to shun the conservative outfits more often associated with her profession.
Just like bubbly Harvard law student Elle, Kathleen, who shares the beloved character's famed blonde locks, lets her personality shine through her cheerful sense of style. She loves bright pink suits, green dresses and has perfectly manicured fingernails. Kathleen even has a pink office.
Hardworking Kathleen, 31, says she likes to 'stand out', and believes 'professionals shouldn’t be put in a box in order to be taken seriously'.
