Gossip Girl Fashion: Blake Lively on Set - August 11

As you know I’m a huge fan of Gossip Girl and the fashion in the show, since Season 2 doesn’t air till September 1st (mark your calendars) my only fix is to “spy” on the girls on set. Just spotted this pic of Blake Lively aka Serena Van Der Woodsen filming on August 11th in a very casual chic outfit! The ankle boots were easily recognizable since I’ve been waiting for them to release, they’re called ICEBLUE ($109) from Nine West- its available for pre-order now and ships sometime in September. I can’t wait till they release, my pick is the dark natural color (shown) as well- they’re so hot! Besides the fab shoes she has on, her bag is super fierce too! Her bag is the Celine Watch Me Work Bag ($2100), so hot- also available in patent red! Do you covet her look?

xoxo, retrogurl (haha)!

Reversible Jacket

Last week I went to (capsule) for the first time and I was quite impressed, I stopped by the Nike booth and Demetria showed me the new Nike Sportswear Women’s Holiday 2008 collection. I was surprised at how much I liked the collection, it looked like they’ve finally “got it” and produced lots of more wearable gear. The retro look and use of color is dope, I love that the logo is kept very small. I anticipate the range to drop in October and November, def going to cop a few pieces. What do you think?
