Love It! Black sweater, charm bracelet, and ribbon headband
Last night I finally jump-started my Netflix viewing again. I’ve had Baby Doll in my apartment since 05.14.08, which means that it’s just shy of a 6 month anniversary at The Garland Estate. I am so glad that I finally watched it as the film was not only superb but offered a stylish young girl named Baby Doll.
I am currently reading a Street Car Named Desire by Tennessee Williams in my “Gay Literature pre-Stonewall” class [UCLA] so I had an idea that I would be watching that would be considered “edgy” as most of his work at the time was considered so. It was nearly banned in 1956 and if you’ve seen it, there is no question as to why. Most impressive for me was the spectacular Baby Doll who was naive but witty, young but womanly, poor but absolutely stylish.

Fashion Intelligentsia here,
I cannot believe that there is only one more week until Gossip Girl is gone for the summer. Tres mal! What will I live for once headbands are revoked and replaced by a dark TV screen. Big Love, I’m calling you! As you know, GG is one of the most stimulating shows as far as fashion goes, but tonight’s episode was so devastating that there were fewer wardrobe changes. Did we shed a tear? Maybe. See you next week Lydia Hearst!
I invite you to read our top 10 fashion moments from last night:
- Vanessa is still rocking her ghetto fabulous Alexis Bittar earrings.
- Chuck’s sweater + plaid pants = I am in love!
- Does Georgina own any other jeans other than those gray Cheap Mondays?
- Blair & her bow tie dresses never disappoint. Some of the only color in this episode.
- Spotted: Bluefly shopper in Blair’s room. Like she’d ever shop there! She’s not into discounts.
- Blair’s jeweled headband
- Lisa Loeb never looked so good – I’ve seen that dress before
- Georgina, is your jewelry of choice Alexis Bittar? TOTAL COUNT: 3 + Vanessa 1
- Where’s JENNY Humphrey? At her moms? We live for Jenny’s color blocks. Missing her.
- Headband count: 3 – please do not deprive us of the other girls, our count was so low.
From L to R: Marc by Marc Jacobs Clover jacquard dress ($698), Delias Pearl Chain Pack ($14.50), D&G Sequin Shift Dress ($1,145), Mulberry Silk Striped Ribbon Dress ($1,795), Forever 21 Round Sunglasses ($5.80), 3.1 Phillip Lim Silk Organza Headband ($135), Alexis Bittar 5th Avenue Bracelet ($275.00) & Starlet Studded Bracelet ($165)
