A Collection of Blair Waldorf's Headbands

I regularly watch Gossip Girl because of the show's fashion statements that eventually turned into fashion trends. If I were to choose between Serena and Blair, I would be in B's team. Although she embodies stubbornness, selfishness and self-obsession I really like her because of renowned fashion choices.

Serena is chic and sleek in her own fashion way but I can't get enough of Blair's headbands and girly outfits!




Portrayed by Leighton Meester, Blair Waldorf became popular because of her wardrobe collection. In fact, she was featured in some magazines and websites. She was also enlisted as one of TY Guide's "Best-Dressed TV Characters of 2007".

To steal blair's look, check out her collection of headbands as compiled by Instyle.

Peta's Fashionable Sea Kittens

What are Sea Kittens? For one of their campaign against animal violence last year, PETA launched their Sea Kitten campaign. Instead of using the term "fish", they use Sea Kittens. The grouped claimed that fish are smart and they have feelings too, just like dogs and cats.

So to shoo away my sleepiness feeling, I created my own sea kittens. In PETA's website, you can choose the fish type of your sea kitten and you can also adorn them with headgears and other accessories. They’re so fashionably cute. You too can have your own sea kitten!

Lady Gaga's Controversial Bubble Dress

The very first thing that I noticed about Lady Gaga, was her out-of-this-world fashion statement. Of all those bold outfits, her bubble dress made a loud noise in the fashion gossip columns. The bubble dress she wore on her Fame Ball tour was said to be a replica from Hussein Chalayan's Spring 2007 Runway collection.



What can you say about this bubble dress issue?

By the way, here's some photos during the concert tour:

Amazing and Amusing Looks of Costume Institute Gala 2009

Last Monday, one of the most awaited fashion events of the year took place at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. The Costume Institute Gala 2009, named as “The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion”, was hosted by Kate Moss and Marc Jacobs.

Celebrities, models and fashion designers graced the red carpet of the event wearing their best model-looking dresses. I am not surprised to see fashion perfect gowns as well as weird-looking outfits. In every occasion, one can be either fashionable or out-fashioned. Personally every time I stumbled upon blog posts regarding fashion events, I would go directly to the Best-Dressed and the Worst-Dressed links of the site. For this blog, I would classify them as Amazing and Amusing looks.

Check out the gallery I have prepared for you. I would like to thank the fashion sites who uploaded these photos. Even though we did not attend the party in person, at least we can be amazed and amused with the wild creations and daring outfits of the party’s attendees.
