These floral looks add to all of the outfits the actress has been rocking all summer to promote her latest movie — and they all just make sense when you hear her reasoning behind her method dressing, which she’s been doing for years.

Her outfit choices actuallyserve as a source of comfortwhen she’s in public situations.

“I’m a pretty shy person, so if I’m going to go somewhere, I tend to choose a character,” she tells PEOPLE while promotingher debut haircare line Blake Brown. “It’s like, ‘What Spice Girl am I today? Or which character ofSex in the City?’"

She started her method dressing withA Simple Favorand has loved seeing the trend take off.

“I’m so excited method dressing is such a thing now because years ago when I didA Simple Favor, people were like, ‘Why are you dressing like your character? Why are you in suits?,’” Lively said, referencing her2018 promo tourfor the Paul Feig film for which she justfilmed an upcoming sequel. “And I was like, because we have no marketing money to promote this movie. It’s a small movie and the only thing people really pay attention to at these junket interviews is the photos of fashion so if I just wear men’s suits, people are going to go, ‘Why is she just wearing suits?’ And then they’re going to go, ‘Oh, because she’s in a movie and she’s wearing men’s suits.’ It’s a marketing hack to try to get people to pay attention to our movie. And it worked.”

It Ends with Ushits theaters on Aug. 9.
