90210 vs Gossip Girl Part 2

You girls might of seen Part 1 of my 90210 vs Gossip Girl post but if you haven't check it out in the Blog Archive.

So last time you saw the girls of 90210 and today I'm showing the equally fabulous Gossip Girls.

Here we have Serena Van der Woodsen sporting this chic school look.
Plaid shorts, mahogany striped blazer with matching grey tights and satchel are all style this Autumn/Winter.
Not to mention the gorgeous brogues or oxfords, whatever you want to call them. 

A clash of pattern for Blair Waldorf the "It Girl". This outfit works well for the character but it's not for me. The tweed skirt is my favourite piece of the outfit. I think that if it was paired with a crisp white shirt I'd be more excited but this is Blair we're talking about, she doesn't do simple. Also can I bring her tights to your attention. Utter bliss!

Ah... The notorious bad girl Jenny Humphrey (or "Little J" as called by Blair) rocks the grunge look. Plaid coat, loose tank, mini shorts, studded bag and grey leather boots. I guess we can thank J for the revival of the 90's. These are the best boots I've seen so far on GG this season. Their perfect for this A/W and well their just... stunning.

Vanessa Abrams ,the ever so artsy outsider as some may call her, usually goes for the bohemian look. Clad in peasant blouses and heeled clogs. But here V keep the boho look but adds a little chic. I love this dress! The floaty material keeps in tune with Vanessa but also adds a little UES (upper east side) to her.

As I done before with the 90210 girls, I'll show you some of the exact pieces that the GG's have been wearing.

To Cast a Vote

Comment on this post saying which one you like better but don't all of you girls just say "Gossip Girl" or "90210" cause it'll be spammed like YouTube. So try "90210 :) cause it's West Coast" or "Gossip Girl - Gotta love Blair"

90210 vs Gossip Girl Part 1

90210 and Gossip girl are two of my favourite shows. Like many other teen girls I lust after their clothes and maybe even their boyfriends... just a little. But what show is more fashion forward ?

Before I even delve into my research of the two I've already ready thought of something many girls would agree with me about. Gossip Girl's fashion alot of the time is very posh and preppy, not naming anyone Blair. Where as 90210 has a laid back Californian look going on. So I guess this is a case of East vs West. 

Annie wears a "music note" woolly cardigan with a stripe tank and lilac pastle shorts.
I love how you would never of expected these items to go together but they do in an "I just threw this one" kind of way.

Naomi doesn't always wear the Audrey Hepburn esque clothing but I thought this captured her personality.
Tweed skirt, cardigan and pearls you say. Sort of Gran like but with the right colours and well... face she pulls it off.


This is the latest outfit sported by Adrianna.
The mustard blouse and pleated grey skirt work well with her skin tone and hair. I personally would not wear it but I love it on her.

I obsess every week over Silver's style. She has a relaxed attitude and wears casual clothes (unlike Naomi). But casual doesn't mean boring. This printed top is one of my favourites worn by Silver plus the navy shorts compliments it well.



If you like me want to replicate their style your in luck. I've found a site that provides you with exact things the cast wear so heres some of the best from all the characters.
