Saying farewell to Blair Waldorf

Blair Waldorf

All good things must come to an end, and unfortunately, Gossip Girl is no exception to the rule. On Monday, the drama filled lives of our favorite Upper East Siders came to an end and we are now wondering, what could possibly replace it?

So, to pay homage to all the beautiful jewels adorned by the Queen Bee herself, we have selected a few favorites which are available at www.sophiescloset.com

 

Siman Tu Three Flower Tiara  

Siman Tu Cubic Zerconia Tiara

Jennifer Behr Art Deco Crystal Silk Headwrap 

Badgley and Mischka Victorian Bow Necklace

Siman Tu Pearl and Coral Flower Choker

Siman Tu Butterfly Necklace

Bounkit Faceted Moonstone Earring

David Aubrey Multi Layer Pearl Necklace

12 Days of Christmas with BLAIR WALDORF

We know Blair's favourite holiday is Thanksgiving: she just can't resist that pie! But she also loves Christmas because any excuse to dress up and receive gifts is sure to make Blair one happy Upper East Sider. We love to fantasize of what it would be like to be Miss Waldorf: a girl that has everything! Well, even though she appears to have everything, there must be something she is coveting. So we made a list: 12 Days of Christmas with Blair Waldorf! We realize this is very geeky indeed, but it sure was fun... Chuck, you better be reading this!

1) Audrey Hepburn's tub sofa as seen in Blair's favourite film Breakfast at Tiffany's



Everyone knows this is Blair's favourite film and even though Dorota is a very talented decorator, she missed out on one important detail.

2) a cat


Blair's beloved cat "Cat" (also named after Breakfast at Tiffany's) now lives in France with her father and she needs someone to hang out with when her and Serena are fighting.

3) large pearl earrings




CHANEL Vintage Gold Tone Round Pearl Earrings (AED 1450)

To be just like her idol Audrey Hepburn, Blair needs large pearl earrings. She also loves Chanel!

4) a fur hat

She will also need a fur topper to complete the Audrey look! She can also use it to play "Anna Karenina" with Chuck...

MUHLBAUER Fur Hat

5) a glamorous hair piece




JENNIFER BEHR "Flora" CombJennifer Behr (AED 950)

Just because she didn't end up dating a Prince, it doesn't mean that she doesn't want to be a Princess. Taking inspiration again from Audrey Hepburn, Blair would love to have a pretty tiara-like hair piece for those dreamy days.

6) a pretty sequin dress for New Years Eve


PHILLIP LIM Dress

Blair needs a pretty party dress for her New Year's Eve party, preferably one that also has a bow!

7) pretty pumps


VALENTINO Pumps

Of course she also needs pretty shoes to go with the dress. These Valentino ones are so Blair: they have both a bow and lace!

8) a new headband


JENNIFER BEHR Velvet Bow Headband (AED 590)

Now that she is in Ivy League school, she is allowed to wear headbands again. Blair is ecstatic! This velvet bow headband matches that Phillip Lim dress so perfectly.

9) a pearl necklace from Eleanor


JOOMI LIM "Save the Queen" Pearl Necklace (AED 1800)

Blair can't get enough of pearls and she is wishing for more. Nothing says "mother/daughter love" like some pretty baubles!

10) a Audrey Hepburn book from Dorota



Blair knows Dorota also shares her fondness for Audrey Hepburn and even though she loves expensive gifts, she would love nothing more from Dorota than to bond over this book.

11) a friendship bracelet from Serena


CHAN LUU bracelet (AED 390)

Blair wishes for the days when her and Serena would finally stop being frenemies. There friendship has grown over the years and she really hopes that they can solidify their relationship and exchange friendship bracelets.

12) a antique brooch from Chuck


VINTAGE Gold Bow Brooch (AED 590)

Well, to be honest, what she really wants from Chuck is that engagement ring that he lost in Prague. But now that they are "friends," it would be highly inappropriate. However, she still hopes for a meaningful gift: hopefully something antique, one-of-a-kind and with a bow!

Next week: Serena!

Catching Up With GOSSIP GIRL Accessories

We are loving the start of Gossip Girl season 4. Things are getting really juicy with the Chuck vs Blair war and the impending return of Little J. We admit that the other storyline involving the new character Juliet's hunt for Serena's dignity is a little boring; we can put up with some boredom as long as the girls are looking as fabulous as they've been this season.


Episode 1 "Belles du Jour":
SIMAN TU Five Strand Pearl Choker (AED 3600)

Blair has always been #1 on the Gossip Girl style watch. Maybe it's because she loves the same designers as we do -- Siman Tu and Bounkit -- and she is always perfectly accessorized. In Paris, she played up her flirty feminine style with bold prints and big statement accessories like Siman Tu's pearl choker and the "Butterfly" necklace. In New York, she keeps her style a little more minimal, sticking to one or two colours and simpler accessories like the pink blazer paired with a purple Bounkit amethyst cuff.


Episode 2 "Double Identity":
SIMAN TU "Butterfly" Necklace (price on request)


Episode 2 "Double Identity":
SIMAN TU Tiara (AED 3150)


Episode 3 "The Undergraduates":
BADGLEY MISCHKA Victoria Bow Necklace (price on request)


Episode 5 "Goodbye Columbia":
BOUNKIT Faceted Amethyst Cuff (AED 2200)


Episode 3 "The Undergraduates":
SIMAN TU Cuff (price on request)

Blair may be #1 on our style watch, but that doesn't mean that we aren't head-over-heels in love with Serena's, Lily's and Vanessa's style. This season, Serena looks more beautiful than ever (and we are keeping fingers crossed for her and Nate). Her style is becoming more sophisticated with time and she is becoming a budding classic beauty like her mother Lily. It's no wonder they both wore this Siman Tu cuff this season (Lily wore the grey stone version of it in "Double Identity").


Episode 2 "Double Identity":
SIMAN TU Malachite Drop Necklace (price on request)

Lily has always worn Siman Tu but this drop necklace may be the most stunning one yet! Paired with a brown silk dress and one of her signature chignons, Lily is absolute perfection.


Episode 1 "Belles du Jour":
BOUNKIT Turquoise Amethyst Bracelet (price on request)

No, we are not forgetting about Vanessa. Why does this poor girl always end up being dumped by Dan? She is so stunningly beautiful! She stays true to her bohemian roots but that doesn't mean she skimps on expensive accessories: Vanessa also loves Bounkit! We definitely approve of her taste in bracelets, especially the amazing cuff she paired with a Catherine Malandrino dress in "Goodbye Columbia." She wore the orange one, but we have it in a stunning green onyx. C'mon Dan, get it together!


Episode 5 "Goodbye Columbia":
BOUNKIT Cuff with Faceted Green Onyx (AED 2200)


Episode 5 "Goodbye Columbia":
BOUNKIT Earrings (AED 1520)

We wonder whether Little J will return with the same goth punk look or whether she had a makeover over the summer (we are hoping for a makeover).

We'll make sure to catch up with our favourite show again soon. You know you love us! Xoxo.
