Gossip Girl: “Ex-Husbands and Wives” Fashion Round-Up

Like, what happened to Vanessa? Is she gone to Haiti already? No big goodbye like when Seth took off sailing and said goodbye to Summer on the O.C.? I hate how writers keep shortchanging Vanessa. She could actually be an OK character if they paid attention to all her achievements – and she has many! Are they forgetting that she somehow managed to sex it up with all three leading boys: Nate, Chuck, and Dan? Like I said before, she could actually be my hero. Yes, the writers apparently have amnesia. Poor Vanessa.
Is that it for the Baldwin? Really? Are we back with the Lily and Rufus borefest? Or did Rufus really cheat with Holland (yes, that’s her name!)? Poor Rufus: he is now just a desperate housewife of Manhattan, far away from his rockstar glory days. Can’t he call up Sonic Youth or Lisa Loeb or someone he can talk to about his problems other than Dr. Holland?
It’s no wonder everyone is always fighting over Lily – she is so gorgeous! I always enjoy her many variations on the chignon. I loved her purple Badgley Mishka gown (photo looks burgundy). And then I loved her going-to-Palm-Beach asymmetrical Michael Kors. Lily is just so damn classy. I want to be just like her when I grow up (but without Rufus, or Bart, or the Baldwin…or daughter like Serena).
Serena is just so damn unlikeable these days. Can a person be more selfish? She wore a gorgeous gold one-shoulder dress by Marc Jacobs but that is her only redeeming quality this week.
Then there is the adorable Blair, who is finally moving on from Chuck and getting ready to date (or to “courtship”) like a normal person. I must say Mr. Rugby is a cutie but of course my heart will always belong to Chuck. Blair arms herself with three print dresses to embark on her new adventures in love. Girl knows what’s up! I love the Marc Jacobs bird print and I loved her floral Dior with the yellow bow belt. I love when Blair wears bows!
