the perfect bridesmaids

I just thought that this was an immensely pretty photo of Blake Lively and Leighton Meester. Feels like a real, behind-the-scenes shot at a wedding, relaxed and perfect, and not staged for the show. They were probably just chatting here. The lighting, the colors, even their body language and expressions, so pitch perfect.

I normally wouldn't go for floral prints, but these ladies managed to make the pattern sophisticated and sweet at the same time...in pink and yellow! So, so pretty... :)

the most beautiful cast

Here are some behind-the-scenes action of the "Gossip Girl" photo shoot for People magazine's "100 Most Beautiful People." Personally, the Nylon clip is more entertaining, but the guys are in this video! :)

Blake and Leighton mugging it up

While I'm still on my "Gossip Girl" mini-obsession, here are some new pics of the ladies from the May 2008 issue of Nylon magazine. While I've glimpsed cutesier photos of them from mags like Teen Vogue, they are def. showing an edgier look here. I'm not sure if the covers are double covers (2-in-1), or if the mag is trying to cash out by creating 2 independent covers (double the issues, double the revenue), but I think they both look pretty styling.


I love what they did with Blake's makeup, esp. in this pic. She lost that "sunny" look and is rocking a model-esque expression.

Gossip Girl mag update

An update to the New York mag cover I posted last night, here is the article in full if you want to read it. Frankly, I think they are trying too hard to make "Gossip Girl" sound relevant and influential, when the show has barely exited its first season. Comparisons to "Sex and the City," "Beverly Hills, 90210," and the "O.C." are obvious, if not trite, but as much as I love the show, I think it's too soon to say if "GG" will be the success it's attempting to be. Still, a nice article that tries to provide access to some of the personalities.
