^That's funny that you say the style on the show has gotten better, because most people think it has gotten worse (along with the quality of the show in general).
I personally loved Blair Waldorf's outfits in the previous seasons. They may not be as interesting in this season, but I think they are just making a transition from schoolgirl attire to ladylike dresses. It's not the best transition, but oh well.
Well, I've gotta admit I don't watch the show so I'm not sure how they exactly dressed. I remember not liking it. Just see pics now and then..
