Quick Update: Do you have Thin hair?

AHHHHHHHH Gossip GIrl in less than a week I am very excited. I plan on making a few Gossip Girl inspired posts for this occasion! Its been really hectic at school lately. Haven't had much time to blog, I'm sorry for that. I plan to try to have an outfit of the day blog at least once a week in the near future, so stay tuned.

On that note, I wanna ask you guys, what products do you use if you have really thin hair?

My roommate has really thin hair, and has tried everything to improve her situation. She recently bought the Pure Abundance Shampoo and Conditioner from AVEDA.


I decided to try it out, and let me tell you I am obsessed with the conditioner! It is made out of clay and it gives so much volume to my hair, without making it greasy and it keeps it soft which is hard to find.

So if you need volume, this conditioner, I approve.

I'm not as big of a fan of the shampoo because I feel like it leaves my hair a little knot-y, but it does what it says to, so if you want a fuller look I say go for it!

Serena Upper East Side's Ex bad girl.

Serena is one of my favorite characters on Gossip Girl. I wish we could see more of Serena Gone Wild, but its nice to see that she trying to be on the right path. The look that I wanted to do is a classical Gossip Girl look. Back to were everything began St. Constance High School. Gossip Girl's character Serena (played by Blake Lively) shows us how you can make even a school uniform sexy.

I mean... look at this:


So I designed Gossip Girl look for school or a casual outing with your friends. I know some ladies have a hard time wearing ties as a part of a "Going out with your Friends" look, so there are two versions of the outfit. The cost of the outfit (besides for boots) is about $10 from a few different thrift store in Chicago.



The Breakdown:
White 3/4 Sleeve Shirt...........$1.99
Black Vest.............................$3.00
Plaid Skirt.............................$4.00
Tie........................................$1.99
Bamboo Boots............about $60 (not thrifted)



The Breakdown is the same as the outfit above, only difference is the scarf which I bought for 50 cents.

PS. THANK YOU MODELS, MAL and ALEX for being SUPER awesome and letting me take pictures of you in you NEW super trendy clothes. xox

The Great Chuck Bass

So I as I promised the time has finally come, the Gossip Girl look for men.

Chuck Bass played by Ed Westwick is a sophisticated upper east side, although he is a bad boy, his outfits are classical, colorful and sophisticated. Some people think his outfits are over the top outrageous,but if you tone it down right it could be a perfect outfit for you. Not only can you adopt a new look you can do it on a budget, by shopping at a thrift store.



This outfit takes the classic shirt and tie look and adds its own uniqueness by adding suspenders.
White collar shirt- $2
Tie-$1.50
Suspenders- $.50
Pants-$4



This outfit is something more wearable to for example school.
White collar shirt- $2
Tie- $1.50
Argyle sweater- $2.50
Pants- $4

Now anyone be just as Great as The Great Chuck Bass.

P.S. SOON GOSSIP GIRL LOOK FOR WOMEN!
