Blair waldorf: high school princess (scratch that–I meant queen!)


Blair Waldorf. Known for being a main character on Gossip Girl, as well as having a wicked sense of style.
Let's take a look at the latter, shall we?
Dresses & Skirts




When I was looking for photos of Leighton Meester / Blair Waldorf, I quickly realized that I couldn’t find a single photo of her wearing pants! Blair is all about skirts and dresses, worn with tights in the winter and bare legs in the warmer months. She’s not into denim at all, so if you want to dress like Blair, forget about jeans.
Tailored, Classic Pieces
Blair Waldorf style
Since she attends an upscale private school, many of Blair’s outfits are school-uniform appropriate. That means she wears lots of collared shirts, simple skirts, and ties. You can channel a little bit of prep school chic yourself with a structured button-up blouse and navy blue skirt. For extra Blair appeal, add a brightly colored headband and tights.
Pops of Color
Blair Waldorf fashion
No matter how subdued Blair’s outfit may be, she always incorporates a pop of color in some way. Whether it’s a bright red trench coat over a navy dress, a technicolor bag, or orange leggings under her school uniform, Blair keeps her look fresh with brights.  Her favorite colors are red (her signature), orange, and yellow.
Girly Details






Blair is a total girly-girl at heart, and because of this, she loves to incorporate feminine touches like lace, bows, and ruffles, into her outfits. This is also her go-to look for formal events and parties. 
Dressed-Up Loungewear






Even when Blair is sleeping, she still looks completely chic! A Waldorf doesn’t wear regular flannel pajamas to bed – she sleeps in a designer negligee. And hanging around the house doesn’t mean wearing sweats! Blair has been known to wear a satin dressing gown instead. 

Blair’s Accessories

Headbands






Blair’s signature hair accessories are her hundreds of different headbands!  From tartan to satin, Blair wears her headbands in every style you can imagine. She usually wears them with her hair down, but occasionally pulls a headband over a sleek bun or ponytail. 
Tights






In the winter months, Blair’s wardrobe revolves around tons of different pairs of tights. She rocked every shade of tights imaginable, from bright red, to white, gray, and the ever popular black opaque tights. Tights are on the way out because warmer weather is fast approaching, but of course you can still wear them on cold days or if the mood strikes this summer.

Blair’s Hairstyles

Blair Waldorf almost always wears her medium length brown hair down in loose waves with lots of volume. These aren’t Serena’s messy curls, though. Blair always looks polished, and her hair is no exception.

Some inspiration for your winter wardrobe...

With fall/winter collections out from the runways and into our magazines, it's time again to find those winter classics and buy new pieces for that wardrobe of yours.

Here are a few things that might have been on designers' mood boards as they thought up what to showcase on the runway. Hope they inspire you too!

Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue!

To those who know me, it should come as no surprise that my favorite color is blue. It's an irrefutable fact. I love all shades of blue, I'm not gonna lie. And taking this Blues Clues inspiration, I then went to Polyvore in search of blue--blue collages.

And I'm here to share what I found--blue treasure! Apparently, Polyvore had done a contest with blue collages, so all I had to do was find the contest page and look through all those too blue sets. And of course I'll share! Here are some faves:
