What Did Blair Wear? (Episode 3.06: Enough About Eve)

Gossip Girl seems to be less about outfits now and more about $1,000+ dresses, but I get a lot of emails about these posts and I am a completionist at heart, so the recaps continue! This episode begins with another Blair dream sequence, albeit a non-Audrey one. She wears a deep plum Reem Acra pre-fall 2008 collection dress with heavy black beading, accented with sheer elbow-length gloves.
Awaking from the dream, she's still pretty snazzily dressed in a taupe silk nightgown with lace trim and a jeweled pendant necklace.
At NYU, she plots with her minions on how to topple Vanessa. (Really? Vanessa is rival material? Honey, no... ignore and move on.) The seaming on this Elie Saab dress is throwing me off, as it's creating some strange lines on her body, but I like the colorblocking and bold silhouette. It almost seems like something Blair would borrow from Serena.
Blair is really into booties this year, and she paired the dress above with a black peep-toe pair with ivory laces.
I can't even talk about this weird and frankly ugly combination. The Oscar de la Renta embroidered stretch cashmere/silk sweater could work with another skirt, and the pink floral print skirt would be best served with a lighter, softer top. B also carries a dark gold quilted satin Chanel flap bag.
This lace Luisa Beccaria Fall 2009 dress is fabulously accented with a bold purple glass beaded multi-strand necklace and a thin black belt.
After her plans fall apart, Blair slinks off to the college coffee house in a Grace Sun zipper front sheath dress in a beautiful emerald shade, Nicholas Kirkwood suede platforms with fraying, and a yellow ostrich lunchbox by Paige Gamble.
My favorite part of her outfit, though, is this completely covetable David Aubrey vintage glass cabochon necklace.
