Gossip Girl was probably one of the first international shows that struck a chord with Indian teenage girls. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m guessing all that fashion, and of course, scandal, had something to do with it. While the intriguing high school drama was enough to keep us hooked to the show, season after season, the outfits donned by the two leading women have stayed with us through the years. I know you’ve dreamt of, one day, dressing like Blair and Serena. However, that requires being a billionaire. Or, you could save up enough dough to be able to afford the designer pieces. Don’t want to that? We’ve found an alternative instead – clothing dupes that can recreate the famous GG looks without any sweat or going broke. Take your pick from 5 refurbished looks, from the iconic show, that’ll sail you through summer 2018.
1. Serena’s BFF Look
Serena and Blair chose the best way ever to reconnect after their weekly tiffs: shopping! Their trial room adventures were always a treat for young hearts! While Blair looks brill, Serena’s belted scarlet dress paired with golden pumps is a summer aesthetic we ABSOLUTELY recommend you to try!
Get The Look: UCB Orange Solid Shift Dress (Rs 1,399), Gold-Toned Pumps (Rs 1,249), Black Faux Leather Belt (Rs 449)
2. Can You Chambray?
Talk about running errands in style. This casual chambray look from Blair’s usually-OTT wardrobe pleasantly surprised us. How do you upgrade a plain shirt dress? Belt it, pair with chunky suede heels and play a little with loose top buttons and rolled up sleeves! Don’t forget that shopper tote though.
Get The Look: Blue Shirt Dress (Rs 1,499), Brown Skinny Belt (Rs 400), Suede Platform Heels (Rs 1,377)
3. When Serena Kept It Short
If I had legs like Lively, I would be living, eating, sleeping and dying in a pair of shorts as well. We love all parts of the colour and texture contrast within her look – a formal shirt, with casual denim shorts, and a high fashion ruched leather bag with strappy formal pumps. Serena knows fashion, and don’t we know it! Switch the pumps for party heels for evening plans. How do you like your day-to-night outfit, girls?.
Get The Look: Striped Cotton Shirt (Rs 2,490), Rolled-up Hem Shorts (Rs 1,790), Black Solid Leather Gladiators (Rs 3,799)
4. Sunday Brunch Staple
Leave it to Blair Waldorf to pick the chicest shoes for a casual errand outfit! A breezy mini skirt, paired with that summery burnt orange top. This outfit will be stylish even on the hottest days of the season.
Get The Look: Orange Solid Blouse (Rs 650), Floral Mini Skirt (Rs 608), Green Sandals (Rs 1,080)
5. Khaki Pants For Days!
There’s Blair giving us major workwear goals again! We believe this is the year to finally buy a pair of khaki pants. Pair them with a printed top and footwear with a pop colour to make your ensemble a true style winner! Queen B approves!
Get The Look: Black Floral Top (Rs 1,359), Khaki Solid Chinos (Rs 1,320), Pink Panelled Stilettos (Rs 1,999)
Bonus: The Clear Bubble Umbrella
Maybe, save this for the mighty monsoons, that will grace us in a few months… but we just couldn’t resist tempting you with Blair’s chic bubble umbrella and floral on floral outfit. Thanks, B, for giving us enough outfit goals for a lifetime.
