Sep 08Gossip Girl has a Blackout
Fashion Intel here,
I would have to say last night’s episode was a bit more morose than usual – Vanessa giving up Nate, Chuck not getting it up because of Blair, and the breakup of Serena and Dan. Why must there be heartbreak so soon? Didn’t Dylan and Brenda date for awhile before Dylan decided to cheat on Brenda with Kelly at the beach house while Brenda was in Europe with Donna? Why couldn’t Serena and Dan have a little more time? AND why is Serena being a bitch in the next episode? That’s right, I am in my twenties and talking like this!
Fashion on Gossip Girl never disappoints; honestly, that’s half the reason I watch the show. Funny thing I noticed about the episode “Dark Knight”. You might remember my GG season finale entry [see here] in which I recommended a yellow Grecian 3.1 Phillip Lim dress for Blair. Oh yes, she wore that exact same dress in last night’s episode. Could I style for this show, or what? Maybe they are reading the Fashion Intel!
Here are my top moments:
- “Ralph Lauren adores you!” – Cougar to Nate
- Vanessa not looking half bad. Who made that gold & purple dress?
- Blair’s bow headband + bow shirt = bow wonderland
- Who are these mini fashionistas in the park? C-U-T
- Jenny as a “Cinderlla bird” sounds like the cutest thing!
- Blair wearing Phillip Lim is a match made in heaven. I would know as I forecasted it.
- Serena’s FAKE boots. They make look bad, but her CHANEL belt didn’t.
- Chuck’s shout out to Bertie Wooster from Wooster & Jeeves.
- “A pilgrim at a funeral” – Jenny to Ms. Waldorf
- Hope you saved the receipt for that tiara, B.
From L to R: Phillip Lim Silk Pleated Grecian Dress $795, Marc by Marc Jacobs [as seen on Vanessa] Spectrum Striped Top $198, L. Erickson Coco Two Tier Headband $42, Chloe Bow Neck Blouse $1,575, Forever 21 Multichain Disc Necklace $4.80, Chanel Belt

Sep 08Welcome Back Gossip Girl
Fashion Intel here,
I didn’t make it to the Hamptons this year, much less ride the Jitney. I still cannot believe I lived on Long Island for a year (how awful). This Fall I have been most excited about the return of one of my favorite shows EVER, Gossip Girl. Summer didn’t feel quite over as Blair, Serena, Chuck, et al. took us along for a ride around the Hamptons – on a stylish bike no less. This season will undoubtedly fulfill our fashion cravings and inspire new trends abound. You can always count on the Fashion Intel to bring you the best Gossip Girl fashion moments.
- “eggshell [color] gives me a migrane.” – Jenny’s Boss
- Blair’s highlights = nolikes!
- Boys in summer sweaters are absolutely adorable. Chuck in schooners, V-Neck for the Lord.
- Do we spot a Alexis Bittar lucite bangle on Blair? Of course we do.
- Prints. Prints. Prints. Love the Milly.
- Gosh Serena, you get all the purses we want. Chanel, sigh.
- My mother is buying me a bike for my birthday, have you got yours yet? Blair does.
- Can we finally say this – BLAKE LIVELY HAS FAKE BOOBS!
- Remember browsing Bergdorf’s and contemplating the scalloped MBMJ dress? Me too, and now it is sold out.
- Chuck, our dear lovely, we love your Balenciagaesque blazer. Marry me?

May 08Gala Gala Hey!
The Met Costume Institute Gala came and went, and we feel a bit underwhelmed by most of the night’s dresses. A bit grotesque, n’est-ce pas?
Our favorites did not disappoint though, we’re looking at you CHANEL IMAN & CAMILLA BELLE. There were few heroines that evening but this group definitely saves the day for us. These are our picks: L to R, Chanel Iman in Phillip Lim, Camilla Belle in Armani Privé, Joy Bryant in Emilio Pucci, Hillary Rhoda, Kate Moss & Stella McCartney, Lou Doillon in Marni, Plum Sykes in Emilio Pucci, and Margherita Missoni in Missoni.
Boys after the jump
