Gossip Girl fans, the show is back and so am I, with your weekly fashion recap and some breaking news – this week, many people were inappropriately dressed. Oh wait, that’s not new? Well then let’s get to it. Serena wore the completely wrong dress for catching up with her long lost father (I’m sorry, but that is a very deep v-neck to wear for a father-daughter chat). Jenny Humphrey wore a leather minidress and really bad extensions. Chuck Bass wore a full suit and tie to an NYU party in Brooklyn (out of place, but it did look good), where Willa (the girl who hit on Dan) wore some kind of chambray jumpsuit. A chambray jumpsuit. Not under any circumstances is that ok. The NYU party also gave us something I never thought I’d see: Blair wearing a leather bomber jacket in order to blend in with the crowd. There’s a first time for everything, right?
My biggest complaint about the cast’s inappropriate attire though is the heavy winter coats and scarves everyone is wearing on the show right now. It’s nearly May, and it feels weird to be watching what looks like January. Am I the only one?
And finally, trend alert – at least half of the female GG cast wore giant statement earrings this episode. And I mean huge. Get your earlobes ready!
