Signature Scents

 Hey lovelies!  Wow, high school wears me out!  (:  Lately I have been thinking about what scent I want to wear frequently during winter.  Winter is my favorite season, I love getting all bundled up!  About two months ago, I think, Seventeen Magazine featured a little sniff-sample of Vera Wang's Lovestruck.  I absolutely love it!  I also love Leighton Meester, she is the face of the perfume.  I had to go smell it in stores as soon as we went out of town.  (Nobody locally carries it near my house)  It is wonderful, but then it got featured in a ton of fall perfume articles so I am hesitant now.  I like having unique scents not easily recognizable... something a person can remember me by, not just another familiar scent, you know?  So what scents are you loving this fall?  <3

Gossip Girl Inspired: Serena Van Der Woodsen

Has anyone else discovered the pure magic of Gossip Girl?  Gossip Girl is a drama about the privileged kids of the Upper-East Side.  With stars like Blake Lively and Leighton Meester it is one of my favorite TV series to watch, along with Glee, Pretty Little Liars, and Make it or Break it.  I can always find inspiration while watching the show, along with getting sucked in to all of the occurring drama! 

Not only is their wardrobe inspiring, but their makeup and hair!  So effortlessly chic and perfect all the time.  Now, if anyone in the real world tried to pull of Blair's headbands and Serena's bedhead look we would probably all just end up looking silly.  However, there are a few unique things I think us commoners could pull off!

This isn't the most attractive picture, but it was what I could find for this blazer/tank combo:

 I love the ease of this, it's a little of everything.  Daring, polished, and feminine, I think this could easily be achieved with a fitted blazer and a sparkly racerback tank.  Some look-a-like options could be:
XOXO Jacket, V Neck Three Quarter <em>Fitted Blazer</em>Sashimi Fine Stripe Blazer (Juniors)
Necessary Objects&#8482; Menswear Blazer (Juniors)
