Celebrity Style Crush- Blake Lively

You may know her best as Serena van der Woodsen in the hit show Gossip Girl, playing a well off Upper East Side socialite and having the wardrobe to match! Blake Lively's designer filled closet isn't too far off from her stylish character Serena, “Fashion is the great character on our show.” The 23 year old was born into a showbiz family and has had a fascination with fashion since her childhood in Burbank, California. Her mother was a fashion model and used to sew dresses and clothes with Blake at a young age. “We’d always go down to the garment district with my father. We would go to really cool vintage stores or boutiques and we’d get a bunch of clothes and we’d sew a lot,” Lively recalls.




Blake's personal style is nothing but swoon worthy. For the red carpet her formula for success is pairing daring body conscious, right off the runway looks with sky high stilettos. On her down time you can catch her looking flawless and casual in a large hat and oversized coat. Always looking put together and fashion forward, she is definitely one to watch to see what she wears next.





Most recently, Blake has been hand picked by Karl Lagerfeld to be the face of Chanel's new "Mademoiselle" handbag line. The photos were shot by Lagerfeld himself in Chanel's Parisian offices. If you think things couldn't get better Christian Louboutin has named a shoe after the starlet “The Blake.” As Lively says this is a “dream come true” and we couldn't agree more!
