"Gossip Girl" Style Then Vs. Now

Who didn't love the Gossip Girl style? The only people I can think of is those who haven't watched the show! If you're anything like me, I always liked to see what was in style and how those ideas can change over time. So here are some of my favorite gossip girl styles with their modern equivalents.

1. Serena's sequin bustier gown. For a similar dress it retails for an obscene amount of money. Nowadays it seems that more formal occasions are actually being dressed down. For example, this gray more boho inspired dress if a good example of sought after evening wear. This dress also retails for less than $1,000, which is way more palatable than the last dress.

2. This dress is feature on Blair. It is a leopard print velvet dress retailing for over $1,000 again. This dress is a little out dated because animal prints have slowly faded out and native american and geometric shaped prints have come in.

This dress is a modern version of a popular velvet dress. It features the shape pattern design and the velvet feel.It is definitely more bold than the previous dress and a lot more affordable at $51 from ASOS.com

3.This black lace dress on Serena is a very popular design. It is simple with the lace (added by the design cast for the show) to a simple black dress. A similar dress sells for $1675 online.

The modern version is very close to this dress. Lace dresses now tend to have longer sleeves verses the no sleeved look Serena is rocking and the dress is also all laced. Personally both look great, so its better to pick the one you like! This dress is priced at $158 on nordstrom.com.

4.This outfit worn by Blair is a bold one. It features a bold jean inspired sleveless top and pick laced pencil skirt. The skirt can be found for $455 online.

Most modern outfits are prepared to be way more casual. It makes wearing outfits like these a lot easier because they are an "everyday outfit" paired with a baseball cap and converse. Similar skirts to this retail for $25-$50 online and the tank top can be bought anywhere.

5. This next Serena look is a classic example of Serena's casual vibe as opposed to Blair. It features a floral print skater skirt and simple sequined tank tucked into the skirt. To find a outfit relevant to this one it is fair affordable with the skirt retailing for $50 and the top for $30 online.

A modern day equivalent is again more bold and less sequins! The top is a simple white paired with a white backgrounded floral print skirt. This outfit gives off a nice peplum vibe making it suitable for any occasion dressed up or dressed down. The pair ranges similarly in price with the Serena outfit above.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
