From reality TV rivals to IRL friends and collaborators! Bachelor Nation might remember Tracy Shapoff as the “cougar” on Colton Underwood‘s season of The Bachelor who feuded with Demi Burnett. But the two stars have built a “big sister, little sister” relationship off-screen that has also evolved into a creative partnership. Shapoff is a fashion stylist who has worked with the likes of Cher, Shakira, Channing Tatum and former Bachelorette Tayshia Adams. One of her latest clients? Bachelor in Paradise fan-favorite Burnett.
Scroll down Burnett’s enviable Instagram feed, and you’ll most likely see “#stylebyshapoff” in the caption of any recent outfit pic. Through closet clean-outs and styling sessions, Shapoff has majorly transformed Demi’s wardrobe “into a more chic, fresh, cleaned-up version of herself.” And now Demi is turning the beach into her own personal runway on Bachelor in Paradise. “Her style that she gravitates towards is very much like her personality,” said Shapoff. “It’s colorful, it’s playful, and it’s fun and eclectic. You don’t know what to expect.”
Shapoff wouldn’t spill any BiP tea, but she did note, “I would say that [Demi is] extremely happy right now. She grasps every opportunity in life and she doesn’t regret anything.” And with a wardrobe like hers, we’d be happy too. Read on to shop Demi’s Paradise looks for less and Shapoff’s top Amazon picks!

Shapoff found a similar top on Amazon that you can wear “from day to night,” as well as a pair of denim shorts that are “almost a perfect match” to the ones Demi wore. The shirt’s structured shoulder pads pull the look together for a “dressy casual” look.
