14 details you probably missed in 'Legally Blonde'

When Warner picks Elle up at the sorority house, his hair is combed to one side.

But during their dinner scene immediately after, his hair is slicked straight back with gel.

After Warner tells Elle that he wants to break up, he tells the other diners that she ate a bad salad to try to explain her reaction.

As Elle continues crying and leaves, a woman in the restaurant says she won't be having the salad.

The line is barely audible with the volume fully raised, but it appears as a subtitle for viewers watching with closed captioning.

The moment may also be a subtle parody of the iconic scene from "When Harry Met Sally," where a fellow diner says "I'll have what she's having."

While mourning her relationship with Warner, Elle watches a soap opera in her dorm.

The scene she watches is from an episode of ABC's "General Hospital."

Later in her Harvard admissions video, Elle also recounts an episode of NBC's "Days of Our Lives."

When Elle sees Warner's brother's engagement announcement, she reads it aloud as "third-year Yale Law student Putnam Bowes Huntington III and his fiancée Layne Walker Vanderbilt, first-year Yale Law."

The actual announcement appears to just say their names without any information about their studies.

Warner's brother also isn't listed as a third on the page shown.

Throughout the movie, Bruiser is dressed in outfits that coordinate with Elle — even down to his collar.

In one scene, he's wearing a heart-chain collar that matches the necklace and bracelet set Elle wears throughout the movie.

Elle's friends seem surprised to see her studying when she decides to take the LSAT, but her room shows that she's read plenty of school books before.

There are textbooks about textiles and illustrations on the bookshelf behind her, which seems to show that Elle took her Fashion Merchandising courses seriously as well.

Elle meets several other Harvard students on her first day.

The group she introduces herself to initially has five members, but when they go around the circle, the man sitting between Enid and Aaron is no longer there.

Warner and Elle first run into each other at Harvard in front of a billboard covered in flyers.

The flyers advertise a blood drive, multiple courses on how to interact with the media, and open positions on the law-school council.

There's also a list of expectations that the school will meet for students, including limits on class size and expected feedback from professors.

After Elle is kicked out of class, she sits on a bench outside and meets Emmett.

They only have time to exchange a few sentences before Warner and Vivian approach her.

But Vivian was in the class Elle got kicked out of, making it seem like the entire period was only a few minutes since Elle was kicked out at the very beginning of class.

"Legally Blonde" is based on the book of the same name by Amanda Brown.

Brown attended Stanford Law School and reportedly submitted the book to an agent on pink paper — which seems to be referenced when Elle hands Professor Callahan a pink resume.

When Elle calls Serena and Margot from her room at Harvard, the polka-dot lamp to the right of her bed randomly switches on and off throughout the conversation.

During Elle's call, her friends update her on everything she's missed.

Serena tells Elle that she got bangs. But Serena already had bangs at the beginning of the movie, they're just a different style.

Elle's dorm room has a bright color scheme that matches her upbeat wardrobe.

Many of the items in her Harvard dorm can be spotted earlier in her UCLA room, such as her neon margarita-glass sign, patterned blanket, and Pink Panther plush.

After Elle leaves Callahan's office, Vivian confronts her by the elevator.

Before Vivian even appears on the screen, her reflection is clearly visible on the metal sign next to the elevator.
