I'm not sure if you can access it outside of Canada but worth a try is ctv.ca All the episodes are up there and will continue to be up there.

I agree I love Serena's hair as well. I was surprised to learn the actress playing her is only 20 since she looks so much older.

I'm really loving the styling of the show. I loved Blair's navy suit with the canary yellow blouse that was very WASPy.

Love the blouse (with skinny jeans, rain boots, and a hat) Serena wears in the last scene. (Pic on post#27)

I agree that was a well styled scene.

Does anyone know or have a guess as to who makes blair's lovely red lip gloss? It's great.

Fashion
Fashion is an essential backdrop to the series, as the socialites on the show are portrayed as knowledgeable of the ins and outs of the fashion industry with their eye constantly on the newest and brightest fashion designers. Due to the characters' privilege and wealth, and the show's setting in New York City, most of the characters are impeccably dressed. Gossip Girl costume designer Eric Daman, also a former assistant costume designer and stylist on Sex and the City and i-D respectively, bases his outfit choices for the actresses in their respective characterizations on real-life East Coast socialites such as Tinsly Mortime and Lydia Hearst-Shaw. Daman also revealed that he shops in the Meatpacking District and frequents fashion boutiques such as Opening Ceremony and Stella McCartney whilst mixing it up with better known fashion houses such as Chanel and Ferragamo. Male actors on the show are also given equal attention with Daman describing his choices as: "It's all [still] very Upper East Side-y but just not old fogy socialite-y."

The clothes are so blah and boring!!! They need to be Carries, and Charlottes and Samanthas. But rich, rich, RICH! They need Patricia Field.
