Fashion Flash... Stalk Her Style! Serena van der Woodsen



Ohhh van der Woodsen, how did you get so van der Goodsen?
(I know super lame joke.. But kinda cute? Maybe?)

For so long you were lost to us in the shadow of the smack-you-in-the-face wonderfulness that is Blair Waldorf... And it is not easy to lose a 5' 11" blonde is anyone's shadow, a true testament to just how F*cking fantastic the Queen B is.

But, this post is not going to be another love song to Ms. Waldorf, our love for her is well documented, here, here ,here & here. Oh my... just realized our girl crush may be borderline inappropriate... Woops!

But back to the leggy blonde.

After years of drug addiction, rehab and wild parties, our little Serena has lost the school uniform....

grown up, and her style has evolved into 100% hot-ass woman.


Consisting of tons of super hot body-con dresses and the girl is giving us legs for days with those sky-high heels she is always wearing.

We have found ourselves getting ready for parties and thinking....
What would van der Woodsen do?

unfortunately it takes more then wearing the same dress as Serena to achieve Serena level loveliness...
Case in point.

... Shiver... Eeek! Sucks to be ANY other girl put up against Ms. v.d.W.
Same dress, 100% different results. Now, lets study.
Aside from the obvious advantages...

*Being 5'11".
*Having long thick blonde hair.
*That redic' body.

What is it that Serena has going on from whichever one of those
Kardashian sisters was unlucky enough to put on the same dress?

STYLE!!
Serena is wearing this amazing Alexander Wang dress in the middle of the day!
She has the perfect accessories,
chunky peal necklace worn around her wrist,
a extra large purse,
simple, sexy pumps.

This Herve Leger bondage dress? AMAZING!
and when it is paired with messy hair, natural makeup it makes it even better.

ARRGGGH!
These outfits are driving us crazy!
Lets take a look at some of the most inspirational outfits from this season.

(p.s. you do not wanna screw with a van der Woodsen woman)

Love the white blazer with the steel grey dress, and what the F* are those shoes?!
If you know please tell us!

This one just makes me want to punch someone in the face!
It is so simply perfect!
So now we know this lady knows how to work a form-fitting outfit.

Lets see how we can capture a little bit of this girls essence.

Start with a super body conscious dress... Oh P.S. this is NOT a good look to try for the first time on Thanksgiving let's keep the lumps in your gravy not in your dress after you eat.

We love the cut out back of this Alexander Wang tank dress.
Plus it is super soft cotton, a really easy way to ease into the short body conscious dress trend.

We are super in love with this cowl-neck sweater dress from F21!
SUPER-SUPER gonna show every curve you got.


One more casual version of the body-con dress, this grey zebra stripe sweater dress from U.O,
out of control!

But what about a all those holiday parties around the corner?
W.W.S.D for a cocktail party?

Maybe this insane white and gold mesh dress from
Sherri Bodell.

Perhaps this Herve Leger?


Grab an amazing blazer to throw on over your curve hugging dress, get a good one because this will be you new best-friend!

We like this boyfriend blazer from Shop Bop Basics.

Your gonna need some super sexy hooker shoes!
But like classy hooker... Vivian AFTER she met Edward...
(Sorry, we have a lot of Pretty Woman references this month)

OHHHH, just kill us now! These studded pumps from Dolce Vita
Are just slutty enough.

And the nude color of these beautiful Pour La Victoire heels
Will make your legs look 4 miles long!

Because heaven knows we are not all 5'11"!!
(Bitch)

Now you just need an oversized bag,

Like this studded tote from Tory Burch.

There you have it... In a flash you are as fabulous as Serena van der Woodsen!
Now we just have to work on getting her bank account, do we can have her wardrobe budget...

But don't worry Blair, you still have our hearts...

We know you could take down that tall glass of water with your moxie alone.

See you on the Upper Eastside girls.

Fashion Friday: She's got legs!


As the weather is cooling down our blood is heating up for tights! 
We just can't seem to get enough of these wonderful little leg warmers. 

No not those kind of leg warmers... We are talking about the super sexy kind. 
Who says you have to put all your mini dresses away when summer ends? Not us, we say bring on the tights and make the hemlines even shorter! 

For super basic yumminess (PLUS U.S made...) go to American Apparel. They have a ton of colors and styles to choose from and their opaque is pretty opaque. 

Also great for opaque basics, and really those are the ones we use day in and day out, try Urban Outfitters, and also Wolford... Wolford are pricey but rumored to be the best of the best. 

But sometimes a girl is looking for something a little more risque, and that is when you pull out the super sexy lace stockings we are simply hearting right now. 

Aaggghhhh! Chanel! Coco! No how could you treat us so badly? we died when we saw these lace fronted tights.. But they are a little out of our price range... But they are dreamy. 

Speaking of dreams, these stockings from Wolford will make your fella think he is dreaming! 

We have been loving our opaque black thick tights for so long now, that these sexy sheer lacy numbers are really exciting for us. 
It is like a whole new world is opening up for our gams... 

The sheer black stockings with the little hearts have our names written all over them. Betsy Johnson, thank you! The sweet little lacy bow tights are from Top Shop and although they don't have this style any more they have soooo many great ones. 

Now pretend that the styling in this photo was different, and that these ladies were not wearing ugh... sensible shoes... These lace tights are really pretty!

Can you believe they are made by Spax? so no jiggle or wiggle when you pair them with your fancy short-shorts!

Bright tights can make such a statement. We love them paired with a simple short black dress.


These pink patterned Trina Turk tights are the perfect mixture of color and pattern!

But we are super dying for the delicate lacework and they grey on grey action in this photo! 

Betsy Johnson does it again with these stunning tights!

In fact, she does it so well she just may be the queen of tights... 
Nope scratch that, the queen of tights is alive and well on the Upper East side. 

We leave you with these inspiration images of Blair Waldorf working tights in all the right ways. 

Powder blue ruffles and patterned lace work navy tights... No wonder "Little J" looked up to her! 

Hot pink tights, some how manage to look classy and right on the Queen B. 

And even with a broken heart, (screw you Chuck Bass-hole!)
Blair manages to steal the show in her unexpected chevron tights. 
 
And finally true love, if true love exists with an outfit. 
lovely layers of lace and tweed!
Pure perfection. 

Wrap your legs in something beautiful!

Random Hearts: We heart bows!!


Because we are always telling you about our inner turmoil over being tom-boys but still loving and longing for all things feminine, you will not be surprised to find out that we heart bows in a big, big, way. 

Nothing can steal our hearts faster then a well placed bow detail on any item of clothing. (Except for maybe kittens, puppies and adorable chubby babies in bows!) 


We know a certain lovely lady who has a pair of these amazing Chanel booties with bows down the arch of the foot, and we want to die of envy every time we see them. 


Any body know a good rent-a-shoe web-site for us? :) 

Now, I believe deep down in my heart, that only one lady can truly pull off a giant bow on her head while still maintaining a sexy and sophisticated over all look. 

And all of you know that that one lady is Blair Waldorff, who I think I have mentioned once, twice or thirty times before on this blog. But if you feel brave enough to try it, then please go here

For a bow look that is more every-gal, how about this beautiful Foley & Corrina dress? What a perfect L.B.D! So simple, but with so much style. 
Perfect for a black tie wedding. 

Another great more affordable option is this great bag from Kimchi & Blue. You can get yours at Urban Outfitters, and wear it every day! Why not? It is as amazing casual as it is dressy. 


Looking for some killer heels? Well look no further. A classic combination of sex-kitten and sweetness. 

These pumps in Valentino red are worth every penny. Yummy. 

Oh my, this See by Chloe dress is adorable! Thanks Miss t-w-h for all your help finding cute bow details! This one is a sure fire winner. 

Wow, I take it back, I can actually see myself in this with a giant red bow in my hair a'la Miss Waldorff! (A girl can dream right?) 

Any way you slice it, or tie it a bow is an adorable way to set off your outfit! 
We think they are really fun and can be either sexy or super sweet. 

Have fun with your clothes, and if you see any amazing bows out there, let us know!
