blair vs me.

last night saw the return of my infamous insomnia, so i ended up watching gossip girl all night. i'm not a fan, but i do sit through an episode every now and again to see 'What Blair Wore Last Night'. i know season 1 is old, and i'm obviously super behind on this topic, but these 'WBWLN'-dresses are still pretty awesome.

mustard yellow, buttons, bows and mutton sleeves... bliss.

my obsession with navy is no secret, so obviously this 40's inspired nautical wiggle dress is a favourite.

and finally this one, personally it reminds me of a 20's/30's flapper or party dress. i especially love the beaded 'collar'-like detail of the straps.

DIY it:

the navy dress above on the left actually looks to me like the exact one blair is wearing. imagine that.
