5 Reasons Why You Want to Be Blair Waldorf

Basically, I am obsessed with Blair Waldorf. From her style to her lifestyle she is my spirit animal. For those of you who haven't watched Gossip Girl (if thats you, you need to fix that asap) here are 4 reasons why you basically want to have Blair's life. 

1. Her style. Blair's style is pure perfection. She always looks classy, sophisticated, and colorful. There hasn't been one thing that she has worn that I haven't been obsessed with. 

2. She has Chuck Bass. Chuck freaking Bass. I cannot describe my love for Chuck Bass. Basically he is completely terrible but wonderful at the same time. That is what makes him perfect! Sure Blair and Chuck have rough patches but their relationship is something I can only hope to find. 

3. Rocking BFF. Blair is of course not complete without a perfect best friend like Serena. Again, they for sure have their rough patches but at the end of the day they are for sure the best best friend couple in the history of TV bffs. 

4. Dorota. Every girl who watches Gossip Girl wants their own Dorota. She is not only a best friend but also a nanny/ maid.... So basically she is there whenever and wherever. Also, Dorota is a fabulous spy. I would not be opposed for someone to do my snooping for me. 

Sarah Vickers Bow collection has a new addition and I am obsessed of course! 

Recently there was a post to win one of these perfect bow bracelets. Since then I have been wanting it so bad. It is named after my favorite TV show character Blair Waldorf so obviously it is perfect! The red, white, and blue is super fun and bold but it will also go with a lot. Also, I love the bow fabric that is used. It's cute without being tacky or childish (which is hard when it comes to bows I think!) 

Overall, I am OBSESSED with the Blair Waldorf bracelet and I will for sure be thinking about purchasing it soon.

Gossip Girl is one of my favorite shows ever! I have recently binged watched the whole serious on Netflix. It was amazing from the fashion, the complex characters, and the overall plot. Not to mention the setting in beautiful New York. 

If you haven't watched it I highly suggest it! 

But, how can you get the look of Blair or Serena without wearing high end designers? It's simple. Just take inspiration from what they wear and translate it into things you already own. Or find a cheaper alternative or dupe for what they may have worn on the show. 

This outfit of Blair's is super sophisticated and classic. To recreate this look you can make it dressy or casual. The first thing you will need is a simple white shirt. It appears that Blairs has some type of collar so a white button down you already have will be perfect. (If you don't have a plain white button down I highly suggest it!) Next step is a tweed jacket or blazer. You don't need a super expensive one to pull of this look. Places like Forever 21 might have an item like this for around $30. Also, if you get a neutral color you can wear it a lot more then you would think! 

Next for bottoms you can either make your look casual with a pair of boyfriend style jeans or dress it up with a fun tulle skirt. Either way you can take inspiration from Blair's look. 

For accessories Blair wears a bow around her neck. So, you can either tie a bow with a scarf or buy collar accessories to embellish your neck. Also, she is wearing her signature headband. If you wanted to wear a headband you could either wear a casual head wrap or a fun embellished crystal headband. 

For makeup she keeps things super simple and natural usually. For your lips you can use a slight pink color to add a little color then finish off with a super natural face and eye look. 

That is my completed Blair Waldorf inspired look!
