Gossip Girl Style Fashion

Three years ago today, Mayor Bloomberg celebrated the 100th episode of Gossip Girl by declaring January 26th Gossip Girl Day. In honor of the occasion, I put together a look inspired by the ever controversial Jenny Humphrey and shot it on my Manhattan rooftop.

About the Look

After much debate, I chose to capture Jenny Humphrey’s style because her many transitions in and out of high society truly capture the spirit of the Aspiring Socialite. Though I didn’t always agree with her choices throughout the show, she proved to us all that even a girl from the most humble means can become the ultimate Upper East Side queen bee. This look was super simple to put together. I wore a grey sweater dress, black leggings, plaid schoolgirl knee socks (from an old schoolgirl Halloween costume) and black wedges. To get Jenny’s dark makeup look I used Kat Von D Ink Liner.

My Favorite Gossip Girl Moment

My favorite Gossip Girl moment of all time was in Season 1, Episode 12 when they broke into the school and threw a booze-filled pool party. I also loved all the times Serena got cases of champagne delivered to her at school and the many occasions in which Jenny outsmarted Blair.

Taylor Momsen Needs to Chill

On tonight’s episode of Gossip Girl, I witnessed the aftermath of the masquerade ball in which the vengeful masters of disguise Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen,) Vanessa Abrams (Jessica Szohr,) and Juliet (Katie Cassidy) turned everyone against Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively.)  I guess when good girls go bad, they go really bad. Unfortunately, Taylor Momsen is no exception to this rule. Perhaps, you remember her as a fresh-faced teen playing an innocent Jenny Humphrey, a Brooklyn girl looking to fit in at an Upper East Side prep school, on the first season of Gossip Girl.  Look even further back to the year 2000 and you will find an ultra-innocent Taylor Momson playing the adorable Cindy Lou Who opposite Jim Carrey in The Grinch.

It looks like the Grinch has grow tired to stealing Christmas and came back to steal Taylor Momson soul leaving her with nothing but, permanently corrupted eye makeup and very bad hair extensions. But, it isn’t just her fashion scene that has gone bad; Taylor Momsen’s diva attitude has made her enemies in high places. Earlier this year the actress had it out with fashion expert, Tim Gunn. After appearing together on an episode of Gossip Girl. Tim Gunn claims that Taylor Momsen was constantly on her BlackBerry and rarely remembered her lines. In reference to the tediousness of filming the episode he said, “I thought to myself ‘why are we all being held hostage by this brat?” Well Mr.Gunn, she now looks scary enough to hold anybody hostage. I miss the old Taylor Momsen.
