Lindsay Lohan in Freakier Friday fashion: red dress, black pumps
Larroude/Urban Outfitters/Glen Wilson/Disney Enterprise

Did you, a fellow millennial who grew up in the 2000s, rush to the theater to see Freakier Friday the way I did? Good to know! Now I can be completely OK with the fact that I purchased prime seats before anybody else (after all, nobody deserves this more than we do).

The highly anticipated follow-up to 2003's Freaky Friday reunites Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis two decades after the events of the first film, and sees their characters, Anna and Tess, once again stuck in a body-switching jam…albeit with a couple more characters added into the mix. And while the film was very entertaining, I couldn’t take my eyes off the fashion.

Would I want to switch bodies with the characters? Probably not. Would I want to switch closets? Definitely. Here are some stylish finds that could totally help me achieve it.

It was a red strapless dress that Anna (Lohan) was in when she/her daughter (long story...), tried to convince her ex-boyfriend to get back together. While Anna's piece was straight from the runway, this sexy strapless number from BDG will do the trick. Just pair it with some black tights or a long skirt underneath, and you'll be all set to win your ex back...maybe.

This dress is right up Tess's alley with its tie-waist design and floral pattern. Made from a blend of polyester, rayon and nylon, it's lightweight enough to transition between seasons and works with a wide range of footwear options, including pumps and wedges. Best of all, its flowy silhouette should make it plenty comfortable, so you can wear it all day without itching to take it off.

Is it truly a Freaky Friday if you don't wake up in pajamas in somebody else's body? I don't think so. Cozy Earth makes some of the best (and most comfortable) jammies in the game, and its bamboo stretch-knit set has been a best seller with over 4,000 glowing reviews. One raving customer writes, "They are so soft and keep me cool at night. I ordered a pair for my daughter for Mother’s Day. I don’t think any other pajamas can top these." Mother and daughter approved? How fitting.

After the switch, Anna starts wearing trendier streetwear pieces that tap into the skater/rocker girl she used to be. You can't get any more streetwear than a Nike sweatshirt, and with fall just around the corner, this is the perfect pickup. Plus, you can score 20 percent off with the code SPORT.

Anna is in her sophisticated career girl era, and Tess has always loved herself a good old-fashioned black pump. These leather beauties from Larroude nail both their tastes with its Mary Jane upper and sky-high heel. Despite the 3.8-inch height, however, the thick block heel should allow for easy walking, and the brand gives you additional options to choose from if you want something slightly different, such as the smaller block pump ($300) and its popular Flatform ($330) style.

While not the exact pair worn by Anna during her red dress "win back her ex" moment, these come pretty darn close in my opinion. From the off-pink colorway to the bold, cat-eye shape, these gold-tone metal frames will definitely take your outfit to the next level. Oh, and they're under $100, too.

Nothing says "businesswoman" better than an elegant blazer, and I absolutely adore this piece from Veronica Beard. Not only is it the epitome of CEO chic with its elongated construction, tailored sleeves, traditional pockets and opalescent buttons, it's also delicately made with viscose and elastane, which is among the softest fabric combinations you'll find. Just make sure to take it to the cleaners when it's wash time; you definitely wouldn't want to ruin this stunning $698 investment.
