Gossip Girl: Fashion Review of Blair Waldorf

For the second part of my Gossip Girl fashion review, I will be talking about the ever so dramatic, strong, passionate, shopaholic, stylish Blair Waldorf. Blair is one of my favorite characters on the show because she is determined and will always work hard towards her dreams. Though she may be a bit rude to her "minions" and a bit dramatic at times, she always has a caring heart and only wants for her friends to be happy together. Not only is she is a great person to watch on television, she has an amazing sense of style. As her famous quote goes, "Whoever said money didn't buy happiness didn't know where to shop", you can always find her shopping at the top notch stores, picking out what is in or out of season, and looking great even when she's not feeling so great. 

If I had to describe Blair's style in 3 words they would be, sophisticated, classy, and show-stopping. She always manages to look very classy New York in everything she wears, which describes her personality very well. One of my absolute favorite looks from Blair is when she wears the bright green peacoat with the neon yellow bag and heels. This outfit screams Blair. It shows her classy, sophisticated style with the structure of her pea coast and her bag, but the colors pop out making it a bright and "showy" look that would just attract attention. I also love the fact that the pea coat isn't just your average pea coat, it has cut off sleeves and flares out at the end making it very fashion forward, perfect for Blair! 


Another show stopping look from Blair is when she wears the gorgeous red gown paired with hot pink shoes and clutch when she's in Paris. This look showed that attention grabbing Blair style, but also that princess like style that makes Blair still seem more classier. At the very end of the episode she meets up with Chuck for the first time in a very long time and she wears this gown and walks across a bridge to meet up with him. It was an absolutely heart breaking moment, but this dress was the perfect finish for this romantic yet tear-jerking scene. 


Blair's school style is very similar to the style she wears outside of school. Though she still wears a tie, a blazer, and a skirt, she plays it up by wearing colorful tights, decorating her blazer, and wearing cute sweaters to make the uniform not so bland. The ever so famous headbands she wears make a statement to her fashion style, but also her social status at school! 


 Finally, let's talk about her wedding dress. She does get married two times on the show, but I'm going to be talking about the dress she wore in the last episode wedding with Chuck Bass. This dress was a gorgeous sky blue Elle Saab fitted gown that enhanced her whole body shape. This dress is not like most wedding dresses since it's blue instead of white, but Blair isn't your normal everyday person. This looked absolutely stunning on her and I finally got to see Blair and Chuck together at last!


Blair Waldorf is one of my favorite characters on a TV show. She's determined, organized, sassy, and has an amazing sense of style. Until next time upper east siders! XOXO
