Get The Look For Less: Blair Waldorf in “It Girl, Interrupted”

Blair Waldorf Floral Dress It Girl Interrupted

In the Gossip Girl episode, “It Girl, Interrupted“, the characters attended a Kiki de Montparnasse party. Serena was seen wearing an embellished coat by Gryphon and a DVF Harper bag earlier in the episode and switched into a black jacquard dress by Zara for the party. Also in the episode, Blair played princess for the last time in honor of the dissolution of her marriage with Louis by wearing a ruffled Oscar de la Renta gown on the steps of the Met.

My favorite look of this episode was Blair’s floral orchid dress by Peter Som that she wore while meeting with Chuck. She paired the dress with a Dior Cruise 2010 quilted bag and a quartz bracelet by Bounkit. You can get the look with J. Crew’s floral dress for $188 and Nine West’s quilted beige bag for $51.

It Girl, Interrupted Nate and Lola

In Gossip Girl Season 5, Episode 19 “It Girl, Interrupted” (original air date April 9, 2012), Diana Payne is back, stirring up trouble for Nate Archibald and Lola Rhodes. Chuck Bass is looking for his real mom — the person who donated his life-saving blood after the accident. We find out who really paid Blair Waldorf‘s dowry so she could divorce Prince Louis. Dan Humphrey hosts an unbelievably romantic date. Serena van der Woodsen tries to make Lola an It Girl. And Lily and Rufus‘s relationship gets shaken up by the Ivy Dickens drama. Details below…

  • Diana Returns – She’s back as the newest investor in The Spectator. And she’s stirring up trouble. Lola finds out that she and Nate used to date so she gets all jealous and upset (naturally) when she sees the latest post on Gossip Girl saying that Nate and Diana are going to The Spectator party together… as in a date. So Lola huffs and puffs about it to Serena who invites her, and Lola decides to bring her 16-year-old guy friend as her date. She causes a scene at the party (“Oh Nate, this is my date, etc, etc.”) and then somehow Diana starts making out with Lola’s date — cut to Lola and Nate filming the raunchy scene (read: blackmail!) But Diana’s not concerned about it because if Nate releases it, he’ll be sent to jail for filming and distributing child pornography. Doh!
  • Chuck Bass’s Real Mom? – He thought Elizabeth was his mom but he gets information that she was definitely not in town during the transfusion. So now he’s on a search again. And he wants Blair to be a friend to him during this time but she thinks he’s just being dramatic because he wants to be in her life right now.
  • Chuck Paid Blair’s Dowry – We find out that Chuck was the reason Blair was able to get out of the marriage. Nate knew because Chuck wasn’t able to invest in The Spectator because of it. And he slips up and tells Dan who gets worried that’s the reason why Blair hasn’t signed the divorce papers yet. Since Dan thinks Blair knows, he mentions it to her. She’s very surprised and thinks Chuck did it so that he could have her. But no, no. Chuck reminds her he did it anonymously.
  • Dan’s Romantic Date – The real reason Blair hasn’t signed the divorce papers yet? It’s because she always wanted to be a princess and even though she married her prince, she never got to be one. She tells Dan this, who gets a genius idea for a date. He dresses her up like a princess and takes her to the steps of the Met where a group of girls see her and call her Princess Blair, begging to have their picture taken with her.
  • Serena Makes Lola An It Girl – Serena, who has Gossip Girl’s password right now and is acting as her, wants the focus to be on someone else when she gives the power back to GG. Her target? Lola. She uploads a sexy picture of Lola in a fireman’s jacket to Gossip Girl’s site and all of a sudden, everyone wants to know more about her. She even gets invited to be in the lingerie fashion show that Serena is in at The Spectator party. But at the last minute Serena gets pulled from wearing the design named after her because they are going to change the name to “The Lola.” So awkward….
  • Rufus Negotiates With Ivy – In an effort to get Lily’s apartment back from Ivy, Rufus asks her if she’d move out if they unfroze the assets. Ivy agrees. Lily is concerned about this but goes along with it and says she’ll do it. But then Rufus gets a call from Ivy’s lawyer who says Ivy moved out but there was no money at the bank for her. Turns out it was all Lily’s sneaky little plan to get Ivy out of the house. Rufus is upset about that. And it looks like Lily is back at the apartment while Rufus stayed in Brooklyn. Sad day.

Leighton Meester is on the April 2012 Marie Claire Cover

Spotted: Leighton Meester looking gorgeous on the April 2012 cover of Marie Claire magazine. The issue hits newsstands on March 20 but we got to see some of the beautiful pics and interesting things she had to say already!

On Her Family: “My family has a crazy history. Probably the craziest I’ve heard of. I look back now and I see it in a nice light. It wasn’t uncomplicated. But I played outside. I went to the beach. There were happy, fun times.”

On Being a Young Actress & Model: “I worked a lot, even though I was just a kid. It seemed normal to me.”

On Dating & Marriage: “I never had a boyfriend until I was 18. It’s nice, I guess — when you like them. But it isn’t the most important thing. I’m not sure I ever want to get married. The only time a relationship is good is when you really love them. I don’t want to hang out with some guy I just like.”

Check out the pics below. Which ones are your favorite?

A Picture’s Worth a Thousand Words: Katy Perry Gets Wild

She kissed a ‘roo and she liked it! Katy Perry puckered up to a kangaroo at Sydney’s Taronga Zoo, where she also fed a giraffe and cuddled a koala. What makes K.Per such a natural with wild things: her marriage to wild man Russell Brand or her closet full of wild fashions (it’s a jungle in there, I’m sure of it)?

Mandy Wants Moore

Is seemingly down-to-earth Mandy Moore secretly a diva? Reports are claiming Mandy, while shooting the movie Love, Wedding, Marriage in New Orleans, complained about the on-location hotel and was promptly moved to the Ritz Carlton—while her co-stars, including Kellan Lutz, were told to stay put. FYI, Mandy: Most girls would be happy to call any hotel that hosts Kellan home!
