If you’re a fan of High Potential, you’ll likely be a little bit obsessed with the show’s main star, Morgan. Yes, her mind is impressive, yes, her crime fighting ways are note worthy, but it’s her fashion and beauty looks that are wowing me the most. Imagine fighting crime in a mini skirt and knee-high boots? The girl’s got skills.
Morgan Gillory is played by Kaitlin Olson, and in the show she’s a single mom with three kids, and she also happens to have a brilliant mind. No spoilers here, but she partners with a seasoned detective to solve crimes and while doing so, she serves up some major outfit inspo.

Her wardrobe is like no other in the land of telly and she’s styled by the one and only Sandra Burns, who has worked on Bodkin, Pivoting, and Last Man on Earth.
We’re talking animal print, mini skirt, pink feathers, wacky eyeliner (true story, she wears a different color eye liner with each outfit), slogan tees and lots of them. I enjoy watching this show as much for the fashion and beauty as I do the show’s ending (they always catch the baddie – think CSI-style).
I’ve decided to delve into Morgan’s closet, it’s too good not to copy. Sure, you might not wear the outfits exactly the same but I know I’m after a slogan shirt now because Morgan wears one in nearly every episode. The jury’s still out whether I need a pair of over the knee boots, but we’ll see.
I have to start with this long pink dress as it’s living rent-free in my mind ever since I watched this episode. Now, this wasn’t just any day in the office, Morgan wore this Kai strapless gown by the Population (available on Nordstrom) to the office ball (sure!) and it’s not as expensive as you might think.
I’ve tried to find a cheaper lookalike with this Lulu’s magenta dress for less than $100. Or if you’re in the UK, I love this hot pink ASOS dress.
Morgan accessorized with the most amazing starfish earrings by Oscar de la Renta. If you’re looking for the look for less, I’ve found these amazing earrings from Eye Candy LA on Saks for just $28 – and they’ve got 50% off.
If you’re in the UK, I adore this pair from New Look.
I love that she also added a bling clutch bag to the outfit as well, and of course her nails were bright pink to match the thigh-split dress. So Morgan.
Morgan’s collection of slogan tees is enviable. I now need to add to my collection, I love them all but this red one is so cool. The MOTHER Boxy Goodie Goodie T-shirt is printed with a ‘Playing With Fire’ graphic and costs $130. Sadly, it’s sold out but the new one for 2025 is so cool – and it’s on sale.
This outfit is so Morgan, don’t you think? I really want her cropped suede jacket with its feathery trim around the collar and cuffs. So fun. So her. It turns out this is from Nasty Gal but sadly it’s all sold out.
I’ve searched high and low for a lookalike but the best I can find is this one from Topshop via the ASOS website. It’s lacking in shearling but the pink suede vibes are there.
