why we love blake...

she's pretty much what you find when you look up "blonde goddess" in the dictionary, but she seems incredibly sweet and down to earth, and from her interviews and Saturday Night Live appearance... even a little goofy. she's a fashion risk taker and isn't afraid to go all out and make a dramatic statement.

her style...

her clothing...

the stylists on Gossip Girl get a lot of credit for the awesome fashion she gets to indulge in half the time, but if there is one thing this girl can do off set, it's rock a dress and a red carpet. from her red Versace dress at the Emmys to the Oscar de la Renta gown she wore at the Berlin Film Festival, she always looks like a goddess head to toe. her casual style is very "Classic New York Chill". she wears jeans tucked into comfy boots, big sweaters, layers, scarves, and winter hats, and even likes to go a little funky with cool leather jackets.

some of her favorite designers...

Marc Jacobs, Versace, Phillip Lim, Oscar de la Renta, Chloé, Chanel

her hair...

long, long, and long. she's naturally blonde but has beach baby highlights. she sometimes does sleek and straight, but usually wears loose tousled waves. when she wears it up, it's a sleek ponytail, or an up do with loose bangs falling down.

her makeup...

glowing, sun kissed, corals, pinks, soft eyes, and rosy cheeks.
