It’s hard to see a list of the most stylish celebrities without finding the Gossip Girl’s name on it. Young actress Blake Lively is known to be a fashion obsession for teenagers because her style is often creative, feminine and unique. Blake Lively’s style is every girl’s inspiration and she is every designer’s dream girl. In fact, she was the face of Chanel Mademoiselle Handbags and even had a Christian Louboutin shoe name after it.
Blake lively, the fashion icon for many designers, is the one who is responsible for her style. Blake Lively confessed that her passion for design started at her early childhood since her mother was a model and a tailor. She admits that she spent lots of her time while doing Gossip Girl attending fashion shows, picking her favorite outfits and contacting her publicist for the permission to wear them on the show. Blake Lively did not have the intention of branding her own style as she always affirms that she became her own stylist because she didn’t have other alternatives. Although big star Blake Lively is advised to hire a stylist, she still prefers to be the Goddess of her own style; she says she takes fashion as a hobby and wouldn’t pay someone to steal her hobby from her.
Blake Lively’s clothing style is all about simplicity; even for big occasions she still prefers not to wear too many accessories or too much make up. In fact, as a mannequin for every clothing item she wears, she prefers not to distract the attention by so many details. Having a body every girl dreams of, Blake confesses that she doesn’t follow a particular diet or skip any meal, prior to important events she orders chicken potpies from Tea & Sympathy, she reveals, “Because they never have enough food at these things.
Blake Lively’s hairstyle is one of the most-talked aspects of her style. For her daily life, Blake simply puts her hair in a ballerina bun and takes it down making it all wavy. Serena van der Woodsen -the character Lively Blake played in Gossip Girl- had long, wavy and blonde-highlighted hair. For this role, Blake Lively used extensions to make her hair look very long.
Blake lively is responsible for the comeback of knee-high socks that were once a huge fashion trend then it faded out. The blonde Serena had these long socks as a part of her school girl outfit which pretty much resembled Britney Spears’ “Hit me Baby One More Time” style.
Overall, Blake Lively considers fashion as “Moody”; she reveals that she feels that she is a whole different person with each outfit. She once told the press the story of her “teal dress” that so revealing that she said she’d never ever wear it. She confesses that before wearing it, she had to convince herself that she was Marilyn Monroe, the symbol of sexuality in her opinion, so that she would be able to face the world wearing it.
I adore Blake Lively’s style. I continually see pictures of her fashion choices, and very rarely do I find it a bad one. That doesn’t mean that I would wear them myself, but she does a great job at figuring out what will look good on her body and keeps it fresh. I had no idea that she didn’t have a stylist! Now I respect her fashion choices even more. Man, I wish I could just call someone to get permission to wear fabulous clothing. I wonder, does she always wear hair extensions, or just for Gossip Girl?
